Such a cute little cafe! Nice atmosphere, our waitress was friendly and attentive. Prices were reasonable, and portions were huge! You won't leave here hungry. Three in our party ordered breakfast, and one ordered lunch. Our food came out quickly, was cooked to order, and delicious. Happy to have found this little gem in my son's college town! read more

Diner food is an American staple. Consider Crouse's Cafe a step up in that American cuisine. The Omelets are to die for. Loaded with your choice of vegetables or cooked meats and cheese. Crispy but not overcooked bacon every time. Perfectly cooked eggs every time I've been there, which has been about half a dozen times now. Their fried foods are your standard fare, but the sandwiches make up for it. Good bread. Each item expertly assembled. read more

If you want to carb up and love sweat breakfast treats, this place is for you. I had the strawberry pancakes and it was delicious.

5 stars for this perfect little cafe in Jimmy Stewart's home town. We were here to visit the Jimmy Stewart museum and afterwards we decided to take a walk along Philadelpia street and find something to eat. We came across this place and we were so glad they hadn't closed for the day yet. I we ordered pancakes and a breakfast Mexican style wrap, which had eggs, cheese, ham, and salsa. It was great! But what really left an impression was the pancakes. It was a special, cinnamon roll pancakes, I am honestly not sure how they even made such a creation. They were warm and fluffy, and crunchy on the edges. If I had to pick one word to describe them, it would be "heavenly" and that's the truth. In addition to the top notch food, it was also very reasonably priced and it came out super fast. We got to experience the charm of this quaint town from the window booth of the cafe. I will definitely visit this cafe again the next time I am in Indiana. read more

Came in this morning based on previous reviews posted here and elsewhere online. The previous reviews had been positive so we thought we would try it out and went in with a positive attitude and expectation. First downfall was the watered down coffee that was overly sweetened, that was given to us before we even received silverware or napkins. We were forced to stir the coffee with the straw out of our other drinks. Second downfall came when I ordered the Belgian waffle with strawberries and whipped cream, expecting both to be fresh. The waffle came out and was dry and ice cold like it had been sitting back in the kitchen for a while. They had to remake it for me and at that time I asked for the strawberries, which were total mush after being clearly frozen and thawed, to be on the side because after seeing them the first time I knew I was probably not going to eat them and just have the whipped cream. The "whipped cream" turned out to be Cool Whip, which was massively disappointing. These two items were an extra charge to the waffle which I wouldn't order again. After this experience I don't think I will go back. The service was poor, slow, and wasn't efficient . We were receiving items that we needed, like silverware and condiments late, that should've been provided ahead of time. The food was cold by the time everything we needed was brought out. It has potential, if they work on having things like silverware out prior to guests arrival and making slight upgrades and improvements to their ingredients. read more

My all time favorite place to go and get breakfast while at school! Actually went there today with my parents and they were impressed with how quick and respectful the workers were! My all time favorite thing about this place is the coffee cups. They are different and unique! If you are ever in the area make this a stop!! read more

We saw this new place recently and had the chance to try it today. It was very busy (a good sign). There are tables and booths. It's all new, so everything still looks nice. They only serve breakfast and lunch, so be there before 3pm. The staff was very busy, but still managed to be friendly and attentive. I ordered country fried steak with sausage gravy, over easy eggs, home fries, rye toast and coffee. The steak was just ok but the gravy was very good. Eggs were perfect, potatoes needed salt and pepper but were cooked well. Toast was thick, not burned, not too much butter. Good coffee. My wife ordered blueberry pancakes, a sausage patty and coffee. She said it was all good. We're planning another visit to try some lunch items. It's nice to have a downtown place for a good breakfast. I posted pics of the current menu. read more

See all

I've heard the breakfast is good (from my brother), but we ate there for lunch, and it left a lot of be desired. We had the chicken cheesesteak sub (with chips) and the shrimp and blueberry salad. The shrimp and blueberry salad was surprising disappointing. The shrimp were tiny and flavorless, the blueberries (which there were a lot of) were slightly warmed and therefore soft, which was fine. There was just nothing special about the salad. It was served with a small breadstick. The raspberry vinaigrette was meh. I would never eat that on anything. The chicken cheesesteak was fine...nothing spectacular, but the bread they used was good and tasted fresh. Anyway, next time we'll try the breakfast, which looked good. This is definitely a breakfast place that just serves lunch items because they are open till 3 pm. The staff was friendly, and with some improvements, maybe their lunch will be better. read more

Wish I could comment on the food but I can't since apparently their hours are 7-3 Saturday's unless it's nice out then we'll shut our griddles off at 2, read more

Great food and staff Maria was a fantastic waitress who made my wife and i feel at home

I had ordered the country side (two eggs, biscuit with sausage gravy, sausage patty and home fries or hash browns) with hash browns and it was amazing! My only gripe was that I was expecting shredded hash browns, not the "patty" type. Wish I would have gotten the home fries too! Tried some of my friend's and they were awesome. I left happy and full. Glad there's finally a place open early Sunday mornings to get a delicious and decently priced breakfast. read more

Awesome breakfast food, I love the breakfast special. Waitresses are all great very friendly and on the ball!

Ate breakfast here a few years back and it was fine so we tried out their lunch offerings. Be warned, if you eat here you will be with loud talking and laughing locals. Seems to be popular with them. Appears to be freshly redecorated and clean except I thing I heard people saying you have to go outside to get to the restroom. Most of the dishes appear to be freshly homemade and they have a sign touting their desserts and homemade soups. The cheesesteak was excellent and fries with gravy the same. The wedding soup on this day was very flavorful however I have a suggestion for them. Do not allow pasta (especially pastina) to cook or even sit in the soup pot. Cook it separately (al dente) and serve it into the bowl with a spoon and then ladle the hot soup overtop. Otherwise the pasta is, at best, ala Campbell's soup or at worst a bowl of soft mush. That was the only negative I took away from this visit. Fast friendly service and good prices. read more

Breakfast visit for our party of three - food arrived amazingly fast and all meals were tasty. Before we were done a line formed and we weren't surprised given the value and quality of food. Also it was clean and attractive inside. read more

Nice local spot. I'd say anytime the police choose a place for breakfast, it must be pretty good.

Crouses's Cafe is my favorite restaurant in Indiana, PA. Their breakfast is the best way to start any day! I also recommend the Philly steak sandwich. The service is always friendly as well. read more

Both quality of food and service are unforgivably bad. Servers are trained horribly. They do not know the (very basic, overly simple) menu. Not only do they not properly wear masks, they eschew and ignore basic health code mandates such as NOT using cups as ice scoops, and will visibly refill other patrons' cups at the soda fountain with their straws still in it. In the time of COVID, it is dangerous, unacceptable and deeply disturbing. Gross. read more

We are frequent flyers @ Krouse's ...the service is GREAT! Always a friendly smiling face to greet you..the food is always tasty, HOT & plentiful! They check with you to see if everything is to your liking & if you needed more to drink..Krause's is very clean, including the rest rooms.We usually have breakfast on Sunday mornings...and we always try to be there by 8:00 am because around 8:15, there is a stream of people walking in the front and back door...We are very pleased at KRAUSE'S!

Anyone notice it doesn't seem as good as it used to be? Staff is all different & food is not what we had come to expect. Another go-to place, down the tubes! :-( Probably won't be going back. read more

I ate lunch here recently. It is typical diner fare without the diner. My roast beef sandwich was good. It is one of the few places in town where one can get breakfast or lunch on Sunday. read more

I go here frequently. The food is excellent (breakfast or lunch). Service is very good!

A good small town place, Indiana PA seems to be very supportive of family businesses. I ordered the hash browns and was hoping for the usual loose potatoes but it was the fried formed type. Still tasty but not what I expected. The home fries looked good though. Maybe I'll try out a sandwich next time. read more

Amazing breakfast... love this place wait staff are so processional, atmosphere is very homey and relaxed. Highly reccomend.

Took my IUP student and his brothers here for breakfast. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff and good food.

Nice breakfast. I really enjoyed their biscuits and corned beef hash. I did not like their breakfast potatoes though, they were undercooked on one side and served with almost raw onions. I'll be back, just not getting those potatoes! read more

Truly excellent diner food at a very affordable price. Bring your appetite because the portions are large. Breakfast is what they are known for, but don't let that fool you. They have a wide range of excellent sandwiches and the fries are perfect! read more

Great food and great service! I would definitely recommend the banana bread French toast.

Great service and great food. A neat little cafe with calm atmosphere. Busy place for a busy city.

two words: chocolate chip pancakes. okay, that's three words but you know what i mean. the pancakes are great. the french toast is great. the hash is great. the coffee, the bacon, the sausage, the tasty college waiters. ALL. GREAT. only complaint is when i asked for my cute waiters number, he said he had a girlfriend??? i don't know what that means. sports have defensive players. ain't mean y'all can't score 'n'nat. please skip ruining your kitchen in the morning and come here instead read more

Their fries are the best in town. They also have a really good breakfast special. Plus you can get breakfast anytime of day there.
