Reviews for Lincoln Cafe in Belle Plaine, IA
Always great food here!
My friend had her family come into town from all over the country to help us renovate her house. We have eaten here the past 3... nights and loved everything we've ordered. We were especially impressed with the service we received from our server, Nikki. Wewill definitely be back. Read more
My biggest complaint is the service it's definitely hit or miss if the service is going to be good or bad.Everytime we get some... young girl with nose piercings she has an attitude for absolutely no reason right off the bat. Also be prepared to wait becauseshe doesn't check on you frequently. I get having a bad day or being swamped but we gave been there when there are only 3 othertabels so after a few visits with the same bad attitude no thanks! Read more
The Lincoln Cafe like most restaurants is feeling the effects of the Pandemic. The food is still great...the service, however... has fallen off a bit. Overall a MUST stop if you are in the area. Read more
Go for the pie and ice cream.....the rest of the food was just so-so. Hub had the swiss melt, of which there was no swiss and... it wasn't melted. I had the Gyro, which the waitress maid me pronounce 3 x because i have a face mask on (I have COPD), ratherrude. I don't think we'll be back. Read more
Stopped in for lunch (1-2pm) on Thursday with my folks. We were very pleased with the service, cleanliness and atmosphere! They... serve Pepsi products, that's a plus with us. The menu choices are EXCELLENT! My mom is doing KETO and was very pleased with heroptions! She ordered the house chicken, grilled breasts, with peppers, onions and melted cheese. She also had her choice of twosides. It was no problem when she asked for two lettuce salads as her sides. Our server even combined them into one bowl insteadof serving in separate bowls and made sure to give her plenty salad dressing. My dad and I both had the four piece broastedchicken dark meat with two sides. Salad for both of us too. Dad's salad was fine, unfortunately mine had the texture of a saladleftover from the night before. It was edible and I didn't complain because there are people starving all over the world. Dadordered fries, they are crinkle cut and I thought they were ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. Dad likes his fries really done and crunchy,almost burnt, but he still ate most of his fries. I ordered hash browns and was not disappointed! Shredded, moist and slightlycrunchy pieces! YUM I love when they are cooked on a well used, seasoned surface! We all brought leftovers home. The prices arevery reasonable, they also had daily specials written on a board that looked appealing! There's also a cooler with shelves ofwhat looks like homemade pies! If I had been able to finish my chicken I would have had a hard time trying to decide on whichpie to have! We will go back if we are in the area again. We might even make a special trip if they still have the fish specialduring lent next year. Read more
This place is a total gem. If youre in town and need a bite, its THE place to go. I ordered takeout and it was delicious even... after getting it home. The broasted chicken was out of control, and so was my grilled chicken with onion, mushroom and swisscheese. I asked the girl working for her recommendations on entrees and pie and she did so well- we are full and happy! Ibelieve her name was Kristy. She was so sweet and patient, also gave me updates on the timeline of my food. We will definitelybe back again next time were in town. Do yourself a favor and get the chocolate pie! My only complaint is that the comboappetizer did not come with ranch, but i did not specify i wanted any so they stil deserve 5 stars. Read more
Great small town cafe. Breakfast was wonderful, plentiful coffee refills. Nice atmosphere with friendly customers. Our waitress... was fantastic, she was working the entire floor, and still managed to check back with us multiple times. Read more
