Libby & Mom's Cafe

I read a few reviews and many raved about it. A lot compared it to mom's or grandma's cooking. It's definitely a hole in the wall place. It looks like an old house that was converted into a restaurant. Inside it opens up into a large area with plenty of seating. There's another area up a set of steps going toward the front of the place. There are rows of coffee mugs along the opposite wall with names of locals that probably frequent the place. The breakfast menu is typical of most places. Eggs, bacon, and biscuits. I ordered a coffee and water to start. Immediately I could tell the coffee was going to be bad. It looked dark in the pot but once she started to pour it looked liked tannic water. It hardly tasted like coffee and adding cream, as I do, only turned it into a different color. I ordered a special which gave you 2 egg, potatoes, gravy, biscuit, and your choice of sausage (patties or links), or bacon. Everything I ordered looked good. The potatoes had a nice crisp to them like I like them. Sausage patties were a bit on the dry side. Eggs, over medium, cooked perfectly. The gravy was a bit lackluster but the biscuit was big and fluffy. The food itself was a bit bland and I seasoned it up a bit. Overall I wasn't that impressed with it. I would probably go back if I were in the area but it would not be my first choice. I saw on the menu board that they had daily lunch specials. I would imagine more of the same. The service was fine and they came by several times to refill my coffee cup. It, however, did not darken it any.

What an amazing find! I cannot believe I’ve walked and driven by this a hundred times and missed it. I’ve heard the rumors and the stories of how legendary this place was and how they make you feel at home…. Look at those mugs? Those are all the regulars! One room for families and the other for 18+ in case of swearing!?! I’ve never felt so immediately at home the minute I walked in and my goodness look at this spread? I have no idea how they are making any money with these prices. All I know is I could have cried when my poached egg came back a perfect medium!!! His omelette was huge, and a choice of toast or fresh made daily biscuits and gravy? $1 to add “taters” to your breakfast meal? And if you love orange juice? Order the large!! Thank you so much Elizabeth for an amazing first visit, first of many!! Oh and that black and white? That was him hangry. By the time we got home he was in a food coma!!! Thank you again! What a local treasure!!
