Our first time in and we are so happy we chose to stop! The pork chop dinner was fantastic!! Our waitress, Breadan, was awesome! She made our experience perfect! We wouldn't change anything about our visit ❤️ -Richard and Jeannie (see, I have to spell my name for everyone too 🙃)

Food is standard diner fare, which is really good for me. My chicken fried steak breakfast was great. Service was quick and efficient. Great place.

Avoid this place. The building is falling down, the interior is dirty & beyond worn, the service is very slow, but the worst by far was the so-called homemade food. The sausage gravey is like paste & the hash browns are warmed up industrially made hockey pucks, likely stamped out on a conveyor belt, flash frozen and sold through Sysco. I've had better at McDonald's - I kid you not! Definitely skip this dive & go to Silver Spoon a few short miles down the road!

OK, we love diners and when we stop at a new one it is hard to impress. Well this one did it. Took a Fall Sunday ride and stopped here for lunch. Full of local people but we felt more than welcome. The menu is more than incredible from typical diner sandwiches to Greek to Japanese to Chinese to Italian. And that is only for lunch and dinner. They have an equal impressive offering for breakfast. Thirty miles from where we live but we will definitely be back.

The food is really good. One of the few diners in the capitol region that serves my favorite breakfast meal (country fried steak with eggs). They have other very delicious meals on the menu and the chefs always have plenty of incredible specials. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is very warm and cozy. The only negative thing I can say is they don't take card. In 2024 it's mind blowing to find anew establishment that doesn't have a card reader. If they at the very least had a venmo/cashapp/PayPal/zelle, it would be a bit more convenient. Nonetheless, this diner is fantastic.

The food here is delicious and well prepared. The waitstaff is very friendly too. The eggs Benedict is very tasty. I've also had the chicken souvlaki dinner, my favorite.

Good food, reasonable prices! Atmosphere I gave a 3, because it's not on the water, or in a tourist attraction. (Nothing personal)

Good food, very affordable, awesome friendly staff! I gave 3 stars on atmosphere, because it's not on a lake, or near any attractions. It's a diner, right?

I’ve been going to Midway Cafe for over 10 years now. I bring my friends & family there. The food was always amazing. However, I am now looking for an alternative. The last 2 times my deluxe grilled chicken sandwich has been like leather. Dry and over cooked and they forgot to put lettuce & tomato on it which is what makes it a deluxe. I requested that my roll not be soaked in garlic. However they paid no attention to my request. When the waitress went back to exchange it I then received a cold roll. Not heated or warmed on the grill. My sweet potatoes fries (which you get less and less of these days) the 1st time were hard and not cooked. Thank god yesterday they were good given that I couldn’t eat the over cooked chicken but there was so few of them it wasn’t filling at all.
Here’s what I will tell you. Don’t order a meal in between lunch and dinner. They are not paying attention to how they are cooking your food. They appear to me to not care about how they cook any longer. No sense of pride in cooking for people. Once you have reached that point in your career when you just don’t care it’s time to move on and do something else. The other thing I will share with you is that the gnats around the condiments and food were absolutely disgusting. I have paid more than $30 for those 2 meals even tipping the waitress for a take out order. Never again and it will be a long time before I order food from here again. Very very disappointed. Might also be time to call OSHA given the flies and gnats observed yesterday.
