Ah, the Olde Willow Tree Cafe - where great food meets questionable artwork!You can’t help but chuckle at the sign: “No Washing Your Balls In The Sink!” It’s like they’re guarding their porcelain like it’s the Crown Jewels! ?And those stick figures on the whiteboard? Well, let’s just say they’re the café’s avant-garde masterpiece. Perhaps they hired an artist who specializes in abstract stick-figure expressionism – fresh out of the mental hospital, no less! ?But seriously, the food is great and the service is too, unless Wendy’s there. If you forget to pay your bill they will issue a wanted poster. We heard of a Kinker that may be their bounty hunter, so just pay up!

The food is great but I can't say the same about the art on the white boards... always goofing off instead of goofing on. Like let's be cereal here for a moment and lettuce not make so many food puns. The cheesy white board stick figures will have you wheezing and sneezing. (Did someone spill some pepper over here??) Make sure you bring others by to ketchup with. Lots of laughs and relatable human beans. If they get to be too much for you don't forget the safe word is jambalaya.

Food is great, but don't expect to get what you ordered. It is sort of like spinning the wheel at a carnival, maybe you get what you wanted, maybe you get a surprise plate that isn't even on the menu. If you have been here more than 1 time, don't expect refills to be quick, you may be better off just getting it yourself. I can never tell who actually pretends to work here, sometimes I think it might just be someone trying out a new job to see if they like it, sort of like test driving a new car. If it is prompt service with a smile and down home attitude, this probably isn't the place for yoy. Prepare for your feelings to get hurt, it is tough love around here and we love it :)

We eat breakfast there about 2 or 3 times a month. Great food and prices and you can't beat attentive and interactive staff.Kid-friendliness: Good kids menu and staff seem welcoming to kids. ..they have kids activity placemats and provide crayons...and have complimentary candy for the kiddies at checkout.Parking: As long as it's not fully busy, parking is goodDietary restrictions: Not so much restrictions (although they do their best there) they do accommodate special requests and orders as best they can.

Quiet, homey place. Good home cooking. Great service prices are great, too! Will go again when in the area again.Dietary restrictions: I was able to get breakfast with dairy and gluten restrictions. They don't have gluten-free bread or pancakes, but you can eat here.
Very nice mom and pop shop. Great service from the ladies. And the pricing is

It is a mom and pop place with a diner feel. Food was good service was good. The neat thing is they have a antique store right there to browse and purchase.

An interesting place to say the least. Very good place to go for a quick bite to eat and the company is good as well and quite funny depending on what's going on at that time.

This is a cute little place to grab a quick and light lunch. I had a Chef's Salad and they even generously accommodated my request for cottage cheese instead of dressing for my salad. They even had activities to help entertain my two young children while we waited for our food.

Great service, average breakfast food. Nothing innovative or to die for.Looks like the owner is a photographer and likes to sell his framed photos. I found a little unsettling how many cats he owns and photographs... For me, who don't like those animals, it felt like the whole kitchen was full of cat fur...I don't have evidence or anything to substantiate that claim... It's just empirical from what I felt, surrounded by cats in a worm down dining room that is.... Wait for it... Carpeted... Yikes.
