7 Best Cafes near Marion

“First time being here and hell their hamburgers area great!! Now to try their catfish tomorrow!“

“Wow! This is a hidden gem that deserves a spotlight! I had no idea this place existed, and judging by what the staff said, I’m not the only one who’s been late to the party. But I'm thrilled I finally found it. Soufflé Cafe & Bistro is one of those rare spots that feels like it’s been waiting just for you to discover it.

I showed up a little before closing and they greeted us with nothing but kindness and zero hint of the negative energy you sometimes get elsewhere. That alone speaks volumes.

We ordered breakfast, and every bite was a warm hug from the kitchen. The omelet? Fluffy, flavorful, and gone way too fast. The potatoes hit that perfect crispy-soft balance, and the waffle, a chef’s kiss! Golden, crisp, and just the right amount of indulgent. I left with a blueberry cheesecake in hand (and absolutely no regrets), and let’s just say it almost didn’t survive the car ride home.

What makes this place shine isn’t just the food, it’s the heart behind it. You can feel that it’s family-run, likely by a group of sisters who clearly love what they do. It’s the kind of place where the care shows up in every detail, from the warm welcome to the perfectly executed plates. Way better than any chain restaurant, and with soul to spare.

Oh, and did I mention they have a drive-through? That’s right. Gourmet-level comfort food and a drive-through window? It’s like they knew exactly what we needed in life.

Already planning my next visit, and this time I’m diving into their drink menu. If you haven’t been yet, go. Just go. You’ll walk out full, happy, and wondering how you ever missed this little gem in the first place.“

“Freddy’s supreme omelette and John’s Latte make for the perfect breakfast! 5 Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“My wife and I stopped here on a roadtrip for a coffee and breakfast stop along the way. The owners were incredibly kind and helpful, you can clearly see the pride that they take in their business and providing an excellent experience for their customers.

The coffee was great, lots of unique Korean style coffees that you could not find elsewhere. We also got the egg avocado toast, it was also really good.“

“My husband and I enjoyed such a lovely brunch at the mess around. The French toast was delicious and the staff were so kind and attentive. The atmosphere is so relaxing. We sat on their cute little patio as it was a gorgeous day. We will most definitely be coming back“

“i usually don’t leave google reviews but wow they have one of the best detox green smoothies!!! so yummy and i love that they have a substitution for splenda. sick of shops adding unnecessary sugar to detox smoothies as it drives a lot of us customers with weight loss goals away :/ tropical smoothie has natural fruit smoothie options and some with sugar, so they’re literally for everyone. amazing 💗💗💗“

“Great food that you pick up at the counter. Much more than I can eat. I ordered chicken fried steak with fried okra and tater tots. Triple fried meal. It was all excellent. You might consider splitting with a fried because of the generous portions. The chicken fried steak was enormous and we'll seasoned with a perfect crust. Okra was well cooked with a great crust and no spines.“
