Such a cute little hut of a restaurant. Fast, friendly service, large portions that tasted great. Quick to offer beverage refills, and decent prices. read more

Pretty solid experience. It's a small place with only like 10'tables and the counter. I sat at the counter and got served right away. My food was good. I was going to get pie but I was too full. They only take cash or check so come prepared. read more

Drove past this place dozens of times, just did not see it!! Located in a WWI quasant hut that help POWs located near the airport, then moved to its current Location in the 1950s. Quant, simple food but excellent taste. FRENCH FRIES WITHOUT SKINS....a personal favorite! Very little or no seasoning which was perfect for my low sodium diet! We will be back. Check days and hours, only open on weekdays. No weekends!! read more

The restaurant is under new owners now and is called Rapids Cafe . I have gone there just about everyday since their opening and at first it was a good spot to visit and now the waitress that works there has made the place unwelcoming. Charging too much for items , not giving back the right amount of change. But what turned me against going back to the place is this waitress started loudly speaking about an elderly man who comes to this place regularly. Stating that he should sit closer to the door. Granted this place has no waiting to be seated. You can sit anywhere . But to rudely complain out loud in a place where you work not own is a poor excuse of a human being. This waitress was recommended by the previous owner. read more

Great breakfast or lunch. While there don't forget to try a piece of pie or take home some of the home made bake goods. Prices are reasonable. read more

Okay where to begin. First of all, on the outside this place looks like some secret creepy place, but no. The inside is awesome. It is a bit small but everyone here is so nice. THE FOOD IS AMAZING. better than any other breakfast place in this town. read more

When roadtripping, the rule is "No chain restaurants except for the occasional Culvers for the Flavor of the Day". This little cafe is definitely one of a kind. We met the current Grandma. I say Current because this little business was started by her parents decades ago. The cafe is housed in a quonset hut and has many family and community photos on the walls. A bar runs along one side so that individuals can eat at the counter seated on stools. Ten or twelve tables takes care of everyone else. Grandma brought us a menu, and I was immediately struck by the prices. They looked like pre-covid and pre-crazy-inflation prices to me. When our food was brought to the table, I still felt like I received a lot of value for the money. My sis got the regular 2-egg over easy breakfast with hash browns. My Grandpa Omelette was wonderful, with the grilled home fries cooked into the omelette along with bacon, swiss cheese, and onions. It was delicious. The thick-sliced toast was made from homemade bread. Yum!!! My sis-in-law grew up in Wisconsin, and I'm a Southerner. When she heard someone at the bar mention Rhubarb Crisp, she had to order that for me to try. It was a homemade rhubarb custard pie with a toasted sugar crumble on top, very tart and sweet at the same time. The rhubarb aficionado though it was wonderful. This was a great stop on our no-chain-restaurant road trip! read more

Great breakfast spot. Food was good and my coffee mug was never empty. Definitely would go back. It is cash only, so come prepared.

Small Cafe with all the breakfast classics: omelets, skillets and pancakes. This is where all the locals eat, they are super friendly and welcoming. Food is good and features homemade bread and jam. Cash only. read more

Good breakfast in Wisconsin Rapids! Dive place (quonset hut) with good service! Only downside is portions are kind of small compared to other places in Wisconsin Rapids. read more

Does this count as a visit to your Grandma's House? It should! Besides this little place being in hut, it totally feels like I am sitting in someone's (Grandmas) house having a meal. The food is good, fast and cheap. I love finding places like this on Yelp! The walls are filled with family pictures. Grandchildren from young to old. Old military pictures and some of the same trinkets that sat around my grandmothers house. Only weird experience was in the parking lot when an old lady came running out of the Laundromat next door to tell me how bad her day was going.... And then to ask for some money. Not for her of course, it was for her cat! Poor thing was hungry! Wow! read more

The food is delicious and homemade. The Country Fried Steak and Meatloaf is outstanding. Great place...Great atmosphere...

This place is fantastic. 100% small town USA vibes. Everyone knows everyone. Tiny little place however you could feel the love in the homemade bread, and other goodies. The homemade jam was also outstanding. Highly recommend this place for breakfast. read more

Great place to go! Love the service and just the down home feel this place has! Also can't beat their prices.

Delicious food , friendly service. A bit small and oddly closed on the weekends but you'll be hard pressed to find a better breakfast. I had the Spanish omelette it was fantastic. If you're looking for fast food look elsewhere, if you're in the mood for a meal you can relax over this is the place. read more

Incredibly good, homemade food and the service is friendly and welcoming. Everything is just wonderful and really does remind me of my grandmother's cooking! read more

How often can you have breakfast in a Quonset Hut? Really! It was moved to its current location from Camp Douglas. The food is your typical breakfast, eggs, bacon, hash browns, pancakes, and more. The food is excellent, service is friendly and prices so low that you almost feel it's a crime to pay so little for such a good breakfast. If your in the area it's worth the trip for a great breakfast and as bonus you could tell your friends that you ate in a Quonset Hut too! read more

This tiny little place was recommended by a local.... have to say I had one of the best omelette ever and even the toast was buttered appropriately and delicious! We had a little of everything including pancakes that were light and fluffy and sausage that tasted farm raised. Next time I'm trying a burger for lunch. My friend had the hot roast beef sandwich and that was also delicious! read more

Perfect example of what a local diner should be. Hasn't been in business my whole life by accident that's for sure.

Wonderful place. Breakfast was yummy, especially the homemade bread. Breakfast for two $20. Kim was a friendly server, and a little sassy. read more

Drove by and decided to stop in for a quick breakfast. So happy we did! Our breakfast was great. Specifically the sombrero omelet was delicious. Awesome staff, great food, family atmosphere. read more

While traveling thru Wisconsin Rapids wanted to grab a bite to eat. So I checked YELP to see what was i the area and found this place, stopped in for a little breakfast. Ordered pancakes and coffee, everything was good and the price I think was good. If I lived closer to this place I would stop almost everyday. read more

If you ever crave peanut butter pie this is the place to go! It is to die for! Would recommend to everyone!

It's a Quonset Hut. With a lunch counter. Do you really need any more reasons to go than that? If you do, the breakfast is excellent too :) read more

This is the perfect place to go if you're looking for the best food, best service, best prices, and the best step into the perfect cafe! Loved everything about it and when I'm back here, I'll be back there! read more

Quaint cafe with Grandma's pics everywhere. Biscuits and gravy special very good. Denver omelet with homemade white toast outstanding. Under $20 with 2 coffees. Will definitely be back. read more

Nothing special here. Blah omelets. Interior is quite odd. A mish mosh of photos and memorabilia. No desire to dine here again.

Cheap eats in a diner inside an old World War 2 "Quonset hut" (per Wikipedia a lightweight prefabricated structure of corrugated galvanized steel having a semicircular cross section. The design was based on the Nissen hut developed by the British during World War I)/ Think of building a house out of a super huge drainage pipe. We got our food faster than a person could get food from a fast food restaurant! Expect to get full for under $6 - comfort food is whats on the menu. This place is a classic greasy spoon, and they get 4 stars because the whole quonset hut thing is SUPER cool. read more

Mmmm So good!! Friendly staff that always welcome you with a smile! Tiny little place with the perfect amount of seating for a tiny restaurant. read more

Nice little place very cozy makes me feel like I'm really at grandmas house with all the family pictures on the walls. The coffee is great food is good really tastes like home cookin. Everyone seems like they know everyone. A lot of regulars come through here I see that's great. The staff actually likes to have a conversation with you makes you feel at home. Two thumbs up. read more

This little cafe is great if you're looking for basic food for reasonable prices. I had the Grandma Burger, which was topped with mushrooms, fried onions and swiss cheese, and it was very tasty. The burger was on the smaller side, which I actually like since so many places serve only ridiculously huge burgers that I can never finish. My wife had the pea soup which seemed to be made from scratch, and a reuben sandwich. She enjoyed both. According to the menu, they have potato pancakes on Wednesday, and biscuits and gravy on Thursday, both while supplies last. I plan on going back to try them out. Note that they are only open for breakfast and lunch. They only take cash, so if your wallet is empty, stop at the BP station down the road for an ATM or the IGA across the street (where you can get debit cash back with any purchase). read more

Can't go wrong! If your from out of town, this is one of those quaint little places you have to check out and will always remember. It's one of the places we like to share with our out of town guests. The food is fantastic. It's small so it does get busy because the locals love it. Worth the wait! read more

Tried Grandma's while here on business. Breakfast was very good, and would be classified as good old fashioned diner food! Service was excellent and friendly! Quantity is great and I'd recommend trying Grandma's if you're looking for an traditional homemade breakfast! read more

Best meal I've ever had in a Quonset hut, but seriously good home cooking. Worth the visit just to say you've been there, worth coming back for no nonsense diner cuisine in a cool atmosphere. read more

Best breakfast in town. They have good prices and friendly staff! Love the homemade toast!

yo! i drove past this place for 4 years before stopping in. i pride myself in "greasy spoon" experience and this is by no means a greasy spoon as more of a national landmark. standing room only on the weekends: awesome bacon and sausage:gravy to die for. straight up 100% grandma legit food. its packed alllll the time as my friend said, " it's great food"! read more

grandma's usa cafe is about as down home food as you want. Great service and great food in a cosy place. If you are lucky you will get to meet Grandma Lois. still baking the pies there. Great specials everyday other than weekend. the baked chicken on thurs is to die for. just like what grandma served you. The potato pancakes are huge and tasty on Weds. The meatloaf and pork specials make me think my grandma is back in the kitchen baking . Great spot to visit. Once you stop you will be treated like family. read more
