Best WLM Reviews

This place was the best! We were in town for a kid's football tournament and wanted a warm place to eat. The Cafe was so welcoming, and the decor was like visiting a friend's house. It was pretty busy, but the wait staff was efficient and friendly. The food came within 10 minutes of ordering. It had generous portions, great flavor, and reasonable prices. Our kids were happy with their food, which came exactly as ordered for two picky eaters. I would definitely recommend this to other families.
Bought my parents here to reminisce since they had their first date here 74 years ago. They loved it, especially the pie!
Central Cafe serves a great breakfast! Good old fashioned coffee, cinnamon rolls, caramel rolls, and incredibly decadent pies. It is busy on Saturday mornings so plan accordingly. Open at 5 AM!
Wasn't enough help, Took awhile to get our meal. Food was good!
Awesome food, great service, will return again
This cafe has always had great American food. The cafe unfortunately had a major fire but they rebuilt and we love the new and improved facility. And the food and service are just as good as before.
Beautiful little old school restaurant with a newer look. Really nice decor.
The ladies working there were great. They were on top of things and pleasant to visit with.
I was in for breakfast so was eggs, links and toast. Was just what I wanted and done perfectly.
Great place to go to and get away from your busy schedule.
Stopped here for lunch. Beautiful place that has recently been renovated. Prices are fantastic. I didn't care for the shoestring fries, and it didn't say that was the type of fries they offered. I ordered a cowboy burger, and the burger patty was rather small. But it had a good flavor.
