    Exterior of building.  In the plaza with the library.

    What a quaint little coffee shop. Perfect for a yummy breakfast or a light lunch. Close to the civic offices and the public library - This little restaurant is perfect if you need a good cup of coffee. The aroma of bacon is what drew is in. We have the bacon egg and cheese breakfast bagel and the sausage gravy with biscuits. The bacon was cut so thick and was super delicious. The sausage gravy was the perfect level of spice and such fluffy biscuits. We finished breakfast off with fresh squeezed lemonade and a of course hot coffee - which by the way was also very very good This is a great little restaurant for the city.

    It is with some measure of disappointment that I visited and write a review for Cheesy J's. Based…read moreon their menu and my love of crispy toasty cheesy sandwiches, I had fairly high hopes, despite the fairly mediocre Yelp ratings. But I'm afraid I need to confirm that my hopes were unjustified. First, some good bits. The staff was super friendly and helpful, though with an establishment (like this) where you stand in line and order at the counter, staff quality doesn't enter as much into the overall impression of a place as with a sit-down full-service establishment. As senior citizens, we got a 15% discount, which is a substantially larger discount than we generally see for seniors. The pickles were pretty good. My wife said that her pickles were the best part of her meal. For me, the pickles and the cream soda were kinda tied for goodness. The washroom was pretty clean. The eating area was nicely set up and I didn't notice any un-bussed tables (though it appears that diners are expected to bus their own tables, which I did). And now, the rest. My wife had The Dip, Wet. First, we were a bit confused that ordering "Wet" meant that they would put the Jus on in the process of constructing the sandwich, rather than providing Jus with the sandwich for dipping. But the staff was happy to provide a container of Jus. She found the sandwich overall to be sufficiently "meh" that she asked me whether I really wanted to take the leftover half sandwich home. I thought that since it wasn't actively bad, I'd go ahead and finish it later. I had Cheesy Brisket. I thought it was kinda OK, though the meat was not nearly as tender as I expect from a brisket dish. (My first bite, I couldn't fully bite off a piece of the brisket, so the entire slice slid out of the sandwich.) My wife thought that the meat tasted bad. I thought that the taste was OK; it was just that it could have stood some additional cooking time to get tender. Oh, the best part of the sandwich was the crispy cheesy bits around the edge. Both came with a "taste" or sample of their tomato soup. This was useful, as we both now know that we would not be happy buying the tomato soup. I don't think that it is Campbell's, but I think that the quality of taste is comparable. My wife had the combo with a side of cole slaw which was not horrible, but she didn't eat very much of it. I had the combo with a side of Mac & Cheese. For me, freezer section Mac & Cheese from Stouffer's is pretty good and I give it a solid 3 stars. And, for me, the Kraft box with the orange powder is a solid 1 star. This was somewhere in between. I had a few bites of it, but it wasn't worth eating or taking home to eat later. Their drinks are mostly Pepsi products, plus Iced Tea (sweet and non-sweet). I started off with unsweet tea, which I found to taste a bit odd and weak. So I dumped it out and got the cream soda, which was pretty good. In summary, while Cheesy J's is not actively bad, I don't see myself choosing to return. P.S. I didn't notice until I got home that the menu they gave me does not have all of their sides listed. Not sure whether anything else might be missing. P.P.S. I didn't notice until later that I was charged $1.16 for "Advantage Program". Unsure what this is, as I didn't order it.

    Customer service was stellar when I visited. It was well lit and there's a mix of seating perfect…read morefor catching up with friends or relaxing with family. I appreciated the amount of cheese oozing out of my sandwich and the burst of flavor from my Rajin Cajun. My family member was equally satisfied with the brisket. You get picked and a little cup of tomato concoction for dipping. The sweet potato fries had a nice buttery taste and comes with a sweet icing (but doesn't need it). Next time I'll try their potatoes. If you're concerned about price points, this one is strictly about the convenience-not a value meal. Enjoy

And their price is decent. Whenever we have friends and family who visits this is our place to go. However. The past 4 times we've been here. It's gone down hill. We kept giving them another chance because hey maybe they were off their game that time. But honestly, after our last visit ( a week ago). Never again will we return. My husband's burger was cold. There wasn't even any warmth to his burger when he took a bite out of it. All of our sodas were FLAT! no carbonation whatsoever. My daughter ordered a lemonade. She then told me to try it. I took a sip. TERRIBLE!! literally tasted like tap water with lemon juice. Just horrible. And disappointing. I don't know what happened to this place. But they really need to fix it. It's so sad that a place that we liked so much has gone down hill so terribly. Service was subpar and restaurant was clean. But their food is awful!
