I had the quiche which was delightful and my husband the daily lunch special and he thoroughly enjoyed. The café is very clean, the gentleman (owner?) was very nice and very helpful. This was a quick off and on side trip on the 84 and would definitely add to our next road trip this way again."

I ordered a sourdough ham and cheese with turkey and tomato sandwich. Two slices of banana bread, a croissant and a slice of peach cobbler. My wife and I really enjoyed it. Originally pulled off the highway to get some fudge from the fudge factory, but it was closed on Monday so we decided the lobby café, it was a great choice. Definitely five stars…"

We pulled off I-84 during our road trip to grab a quick brunch, not expecting anything extraordinary — but we were absolutely delighted. The food was full of amazing flavor, served hot, and beautifully presented . I ordered the quiche, and it was absolutely delightful — perfectly cooked and packed with taste . My husband chose the daily lunch special, and he thoroughly enjoyed every bite. It’s always a great sign when both of us leave happy and satisfied! The café itself was spotless and very inviting. The gentleman who helped us (possibly the owner) was incredibly kind and helpful, making the whole experience even better . Even though it was just a quick on-and-off stop during our travels, this place made a lasting impression. We will definitely plan to stop again on our next trip through the area!"

We also dined in for the daily entree, which was meatloaf and twice-baked potatoes. It was also delicious! What a gem of a small-town, family-run eatery! We recommend giving The Lobby Cafe a try, we will definitely be back!"
