This small and casual spot has good food at a good price. Tried a couple of sandwiches and the zucchini soup... All good. The madelines are also good!

What a hidden gem! We're from out of town and we stopped by here on a whim.First of all, the folks who own the place were super nice!Second, the food!!!!! It was perfection.Crepes? Delicious.Croissants? Fantastic.But how are the Monte Cristo's you ask? To die for! Seriously.I can never find Monte Cristos anywhere it seems like. So to find one here was a godsend.We also took home some baked goods (the muffins and the upside down pineapple cake). Went back for more today.Seriously, give it a try. You won't regret it!

Fantastic find! Perfect for a cozy and leisurely breakfast or lunch, with great food and wonderful service. Found it while waiting for an appointment with my daughter, she had a blast and so did I! Worth your time.She loved her Ultimate Crepes and fresh Lemonade, and my Yonkers Panini was superb.Kid-friendliness: Very, very kid friendly!

We purchased an entire Quiche Lorraine that we enjoyed Christmas morning. The Lorraine features caramelized onions and bacon. It was absolutely fantastic.

Absolute gem of a restaurant, quickly becoming my favorite. The owner and her son are wonderful people and the food they make is indescribably good. I can’t recommend this place enough.

The Monte Cristo was one of the best I've ever had. The owner operator Gilou has a menu full of home runs. Stop by if you get the chance

The very friendly lady, the super cute place and the delicious food... 100%
We went once and it was overpriced. The chef salad looked more like a side salad and it wasn't cold. The portions are small. The food is very bland. Nothing to write home about.

Low key, great food and selection - love the pesto chicken, the Monte Cristo and the burgers! Locally owned and operated -- an Abingdon treasure.

We’re always looking for ethnic food or food we don’t cook. We came to Gilou’s Cafe with no expectation and as we left, we began planning for our next visit and the different menu items we want to taste. Yonkers Sandwich was freshly made and full of outstanding flavors. The Beef Bourginon was excellent but a little dry. It just needed some extra broth over the noodles. Bought a pineapple cake and a croissant to bring home. Both are outstanding.

What a great place! The food was delicious! The service was excellent. The atmosphere was so welcoming. We were lucky that we dined in on a Friday and got to listen to live music!
