I have dined with them a dozen or more times in the past year. They are always busy and have always been great to everyone in the restaurant. They understand service and good food, at a reasonable price. It's getting difficult to find a restaurant that does not want your last dollar in exchange for less and less. Brighter Day Cafe is a value proposition with tasty food and kind service.

As for me the Spicy Sausage Omelette was really really good. The sausage had a bite of heat but nothing crazy. Not sure what they used but don't stop - it was that good. We both also had Sweet Teas. We were warned from the start - they are dark and REAL sweet. Which for me was perfect. As for the service: there was one lady (dam forgot her name) taking care of all the guest and she did great. When I say taking care of - I mean everything. Bussing tables, sitting folks, taking orders, and cashing out. Again she was wonderful! The place is neat just like many have said before me. Old 80's type stuff on the walls and tables. Now let me address something that some past Yelpers clearly have an issue with. There are small indications of the owners political views within the location. Nothing crazy at all and unless you really look for it you won't notice. Some past yelpers I who clearly don't agree used this to bust down their Yelp review. That's ridiculous. If the owner wants to voice their opinion- they have every right. It's their place - with their money on the line and their time vested. They clearly treated every guest wonderfully and that's all you should really focused on. So looking for a very good meal (breakfast) at a nice little joint - go on in and enjoy. I'm sure we will be back and might even shoot for the lunch menu next time.

    I stopped here based on the website and reviews. Was very disappointed…read more It is located in the same building as the convince store at the Shell gas station. I was not sure I was in the right place until I saw the second door inside. I went in and stood by the checkout as there was no indication if it was seat yourself or wait to be seated. I just started walking to a booth and was then told to sit anywhere. The first booth I sat in was really dirty so I moved to another which was a little better. A sweet young girl took my drink order and said help yourself. That is how I learned it was the buffet only. No menu, no sign to tell you, no price posted. I wanted breakfast but had to eat what was there.....wish I had looked first and left... There was baked chicken, some kind of beef ( I think) and fried chicken. There was green beans, cabbage, corn on the cob, canned sweet potatoes, Mac and cheese ,rice and mashed potatoes. The chicken was good and the mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese were good . On the other side of the small buffet was a salad bar with typical options. It was ok except the potato salad was sooo sweet...??! Tea was good but no offer of a refill. I asked for one to go at the register. There's a soft serve machine with vanilla only and a few things for toppings. There are no spoons there...and you eat it out of a styrofoam coffee cup... I was very surprised at the price, especially since the main portion of the buffet was so small. Oh well....just know not to stop here next year.

    Took some time to go over and revisit Dixie's in Petersburg. I decided to get the omelette flight…read morewith three different omelettes that I wouldn't normally get. I tried one with a red pepper jelly on top and it was fantastic. I was greeted with some warm faces that came in and had me sit immediately. They showered me with coffee and also some water and made me feel at home. The atmosphere was inviting. It was so cozy in the middle of the hustle and bustle of downtown Petersburg.

The stuff that my waist line thanks me for not cooking, if you know what I mean... I opted for the country fried steak, mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese, brother chose the pork chop special with mashed potatoes and pickled cukes and onions. The mains were amazing. The pork chop was huge and thick and delicious, the country fried steak was so good, the gravy on both was delicious. The price was a steal. They were both amazing. The mashed potatoes were also both delicious, definitely homemade and not from a box. The baked Mac and cheese was just okay. It tasted like normal homemade Mac and cheese, nothing particularly special, but then I feel like baking it always just dries it out and sort of breaks the cheese sauce, so I would definitely skip that next time in favor of something else. The cukes were also just okay, we got it to feel like we were trying a healthier option, but will probably just splurge for something else next time. We were a little disappointed though, I do understand that this is a local restaurant and some things are harder to get and keep on the menu and keep in stock, especially if you don't want waste, but we initially tried to order corn cakes but they were out, then rolls but they were out, then went with biscuits. Then brother got the last pork chop plate. They have been out of pickle fries for "awhile now". If you aren't particularly picky about what you want to order, cool. I only particularly like cornbread/corncakes, so I was pretty bummed. The people are super friendly though, and a lot of locals seem to come by for their hotdogs (like, a LOT. Clearly we are missing something not ordering the dogs.) I'll definitely be back on days that I had a really healthy breakfast and plan on breaking my healthy streak with something fried and covered in gravy.
