Had the fish fry. It was amazing! The place is smaller, and cute. The waitress was busy, but still got to us in a very timely fashion. The food came out quick, and the bill was just right for what you got. All in all, if you're ever in the area, stop in

Cute little restaurant, cozy and service was great. Good food, stopped and place was packed. Nice little change of pace.
If you’re cruising through Merrillan and you skip the Merrillan Cafe, you’re seriously missing out. This little gem is everything you hope for in a small-town diner and more. The food is cheap, decent, and downright good. We’re talking hearty breakfasts that hit the spot and lunches that make you feel like you’re eating at your favorite aunt’s house. The portions are fair, the coffee’s always hot, and you won’t leave hungry or broke.
But let’s talk about the real star of the show—the atmosphere. It’s the kind of place where everybody knows your name or at least hollers a friendly hello. It’s got that hometown pride stitched into every corner with a little sass and a whole lot of love. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, you’ll feel like part of the family the second you walk in.
So pull up a chair, order the daily special, and soak in the good vibes. Merrillan Cafe isn’t trying to be fancy—it’s just trying to be real. And trust me, you won’t be disappointed.

Since the ownership change the portions have been cut in half, prices have doubled and the cooks have half the skill of the old staff. Frankly this was beyond disappointing, my wife's family has been going to this place for well over 25 years and we will not be returning, burned cheese curds, not breaded onion rings, 5 onion rings in a side, cold Ruben sandwich, oily pancakes and so much more.... since January 1st with the staff and ownership change this not a place I would recommend to anyone. Unless a major operational change happens
Merrillan Café is always a go-to for good food at unbeatable prices. Unlike Perkins, where breakfast can run you $40, two people can eat here for under $20—and it’s just as delicious! The service is friendly and efficient, making it an all-around great spot. If you’re looking for affordable, homestyle cooking with great service, this is the place!
