Always good food and service. The staff is friendly, the place is clean, and the food comes out fresh and consistent every time. It's a reliable spot that never disappoints. read more

This is a nice, comfortable cafe/bar. The cafe side is on the left and the bar is on the right. The place isn't big so it feels more personal. I would consider the food to be exactly what you would expect from this type of establishment- very reliable. It isn't knock your socks off, but always tasty. The waitstaff are always friendly and attentive. I would recommend going here to support a local, family business. read more

Good food, great service and reasonable prices. What more could you ask for! My first time there, I'll be back

Great food -- excellent Bennies. Love the stuffed French toast and the Lil' Bar is a great place to park up on a Sunday morning. Great service too. Highly recommend their breakfast menu. read more

You know that when a place is busy, it's probably going to be good. It's a pretty big place and it was very busy. I appreciate having a mature server instead of some kid with an attitude. I guess I'm getting to be an old fart. Came here for breakfast and I had "Melissa's Favorite Benny", which is eggs benedict with bacon and cream cheese. Cream cheese was an interesting addition and it really worked, I really enjoyed it. When I'm back in town, I will definitely try this place again. read more

Nice place. Tucked away off of 169 but the food was good.. Locally own and ran very efficient.

Crazy busy breakfast joint but for GOOD reasons! The food here delightful, filling, and cooked to perfection. Great variety on the menu- even breakfasts combinations I had never considered! The Li'l Bar side was slammed just as the breakfast side was. The service was phenomenal, especially considering how busy it was on a Sunday morning. Not an empty chair in the place and a huge line out the door; all the staff members were still smiling and friendly while absolutely CONQUERING their jobs. Family friendly space; not quite ideal for conversation as it was bustling but great, homey, comforting spot. Will be returning! read more

My girlfriends and I had an absolute blast last night at L'il Bar! Danced to a great singer/guitarist then blasted the jukebox. Cam made us incredible margaritas and the owner Melissa was super sweet and so fun. read more

Half breakfast diner, half local bar! Hudy's has you covered morning and night. I recently stopped in on a Wednesday evening for dinner and drinks at the bar. *Note - the cafe side closes after lunch at 2:00pm. The place was hopping with patrons at every table and only a few bar seats available. Wednesdays are open mic night and people come out for it! I was very promptly greeted and asked for my drunk order and asked if I needed a menu. While this is definitely a neighborhood bar filled with locals I was treated very well by staff and guests alike. I absolutely loved the small town feel of this place. The menu is pretty sizable with what you would expect from a bar. Apps, sandwiches, burgers, and various entrees. They also offer a small all day breakfast menu which I think is awesome. I went with Buffalo wings to start which use a house made buffalo. These were killer!!! Nice size wings, great exterior snap on the bite and juicy meat. Buffalo was more on the vinegar side than buttery and not too hot. Very enjoyable. I then had the Bagel Burger. I was skeptical if it would be difficult to eat with a bagel as a bun but it was the perfect size and the bagel was very nice and soft. After 8 wings, a burger and fries, and 4 whiskey sodas my bill was about $40 which is a great price in my eyes! I would strongly recommend this place for anyone looking for reasonably priced, decent bar food in a welcoming, local atmosphere. Can't wait to get back and try the breakfast. read more

Friendly service. Lots of regulars. Breakfast all the time. Nice spicy Bloody Mary. Best omelet in town

Meat loaf was horrible! Dried out and salty! Breakfast was even worse, cold and not good appearance. The server was very good. I will not go back! read more

We came here for brunch. It was delicious. We sat at the bar. At first it seemed the woman wasn't interested in people who weren't regulars, she wasn't very friendly, but service was still great and we will be back. The other people at the bar were all very friendly as well and it made for a fun day. read more

Had been recommended to Hudy's and finally made the trip. Everything was very average. Atmosphere, presentation, taste. Solid breakfast spot with nice service. Food was good, but nothing special. Would much rather go to Linda's for a similar price. read more

Packed on a Friday morning... Lots of retired folks. Got the cinnamon roll and it had been microwaved and sat in a lake of sugar goo. It looked terrible and didn't taste any better. I hate to waste food and always take leftovers with me, but this stayed on the table... (insert tongue out emoji.) read more

Had a great breakfast. Grandson had biscuits and gravy, I had eggs Benedict. Great tasting, quick service even though they were packed and busy. read more

First time to Hudy's. Food was absolutely amazing. Customer service experience was exceptional. Special shout-out to Jenny and Cody who were busy but didn't skip a beat! Sat on the bar side for drinks and breakfast. Highly recommend! read more

Never got to try the food unfortunately, it was a little disappointing because the reviews for this place were really good. We came in to grab some brunch and waited about 10 minutes to be seated. No big issue at all however we had to ask the people behind the counter if we could find a spot to sit because we had already been waiting and the group behind us was greeted and helped and we were not. Once we were seated our server came over and did not say a word; he just set down our utensils and walked away. The group that came in after us was greeted at their table before us and asked for beverages meanwhile we had already been waiting and still had not gotten ours or was even greeted. We just left after that; neither of us felt like we wanted to be at a place where our business was not appreciated. read more

This was a corner restaurant spot we wanted to try because it was cold and needed something to eat. They had dinner specials which cool, always liked that. A good bloody mary, good burger and good apps. For those who like diners, give this one a try read more

The breakfast food here is so good! It feels like a home style meal in a cozy, cafe setting. There is a bar attached which is served out of the same kitchen. Their omelets and long islands are great! read more

Upon arrival we were confused on what side to go into. But we went for dinner so only the bar side was open. It also was rather busy for a Sunday evening, which we weren't expecting. This bar feels like you're in a small town, where it was normal to walk in and hug the server. And everyone knows everyone but everyone was welcoming to us and help us learn the ways. Service was a little slow but there was only one server. So it wasn't her fault, she was working hard but wasn't set up for success. It was a small area but you could tell she was busy and could have used another server to assist. But she was always busy doing something so I was just patient and watched TV while I drank my local beer. There were multiple TV which were perfect for watching any sporting event while you wait. The apple fritter chicken sandwich has the potential to be the best sandwich I've ever eaten!!! The bread alone, loads of cheese & bacon! My only complaint is the chicken was dry, but that's me being picky!! If the chicken was perfectly cooked I'd be sold! I could smell the sandwich as soon as it got put down! The pancakes were so light and fluff. But to be picky, they were slightly over cooked. Others wrote rave reviews and I was a little sad because they had potential to be amazing. We also tried both the apple and raspberry french toast and it didn't disappoint! Overall I'm very excited to come back and get the apple fritter sandwich! I'd recommend this place to anyone who loves a good small town feeling bar and classic dive bar type food. read more

Awesome hidden gem of a breakfast spot; wish I would've known about this place earlier. Blazing fast service, friendly staff, good sized menu! The eggs Benedict were spectacular. Biscuits and gravy was a great and good sized portion. Very good priced menu will certainly be back many more times read more

We loved this great little find! A tiny place located in a strip mall, walking up, we weren't sure what to think; but once we were inside, it was a little slice of yumminess. The service was fantastic and the food felt like homemade food from grandma's kitchen. And the prices were so cheap I felt like I needed to tip more just to feel right about what we got for the price we paid. If you're in the area, this is a must-stop! read more

asked for crispy hash browns, they came barely cooked. I asked server to return them to kitchen, he said this is Sunday that is as good as you will get. The toast was toasted on one side only? read more

For the most part, food was decent. I ordered the biscuits and gravy and the gravy needed to be warmed up a little bit more. Parts of it were a little cold but overall, decent food. Reason 3 stars was because first, we called ahead to check if they were doing dine in and the person answering the phone wasn't professional or polite. We also had our waitress (leaving name out but starts with an A) that was the least bit personal or attentive to us. Funny thing is, we saw her being kind and attentive to the elderly group next to us but we never even got a "hello" or "how is your food". Her rude waitressing was very bothersome which made our first dining experience here not so great. read more

The food was amazing and generous amount. They will split the plate for $1.99 if wanted to share. We ordered the country fried chicken and a breakfast skillet. When we walked in the lady at the door didn't even acknowledge us for quite a few minutes even tho she acknowledged the group immediately in front of us. Once seated at a dirty table, they wiped it down after a minute. Once we had our food and drinks, they never returned the table to make sure the food was all right. We had to track down our check when we left. Food was great but service should be improved. read more

Great food and service. At busy times can be difficult to find a table and the waiting area in the front is very small and can get very crowded. But the food and service are excellent, and prices are reasonable. read more

Having been somewhat of a regular to stop by quarterly for 4 years now. Today was the last, why.... #1. They charged me $2.25 for another tea bag and hot water. All the while they serve a bottomless cup of coffee. That had never happened before. #2. They wanted to charge me $4.49 for a pancake I added to my Country Benny, high menu says add $1.00 and has been the case for me every time I've ever been there. To the manager's credit she returned that to me. I'm not going to go into how staff doesn't know the difference between Over Medium and Over Easy Eggs, and when I ask for my pancake to come later that it's my fault staff made it sooner. I will end with this, I'll never go there again, and if your on this side of town may I suggest Perkins up the road in Anoka. Where you can have as many tea's as you want, like coffee and when the menu for skillets says add a buck, it means just that. read more

I have to admit, Hudy's Cafe & The Li'l Bar was truly fabulous. Clean and a great crowd! Each and every single menu item that we have ordered was very fresh and yummy. Crew is extremely helpful and will certainly help you with everything. I am already planning to go back to Hudy's Cafe & The Li'l Bar. read more

Hudy's Cafe has great breakfast food! The skillets, the steak and eggs, hash browns, everything is delicious. Fun high energy place!

Always love coming here. Great comfort food that never disappoints. My favorite is Melissa's Favorite, a delicious take on a Benedict that is rich and tasty. Only thing I wish they would do is always provide spoons when you order coffee, I always have to ask for it. I mean, the restaurant is only open till 2pm, and it's a lot of breakfast foods so of course you have coffee........I need a spoon with that and feel I shouldn't have to ask for it every time. Other than that, the servers are always great, friendly and prompt. I enjoy it here a lot. read more

Wonderful place! Seriously the best buffalo chicken sandwich I have ever had. Great atmosphere, no complaints!

Used to like this place. Ordered delivery yesterday. Took over an hour. My cold omelet was garnished with broccoli stems. Frozen food? Thought I ordered a side of sausage but looking back I just ordered one sausage for $2.95. They used to be bigger but now just a tiny link. What a waste of money. Tried my husband's omelet and the bottom was dyed with the red and white checkered paper they put in their Styrofoam boxes. Time for an update. Disgusting. read more

I've been to the Lil Bar a few times. They have really good bacon because it is a joint restaurant with Hudy's Cafe. They also have a funky sandwich that is chicken, swiss and bacon between two pieces french toast that is unique flavor but good. This last visit I had the bacon cheeseburger with french fries. The bacon was amazing and the french fries were traditional french fries. I wasn't a huge fan of the patty, it was a frozen patty with American cheese, which I'm not a huge fan of. Overall, it tasted alright, the bacon totally made it. The Lil Bar is very geared towards a bar bar for the locals. My last visit was on a Friday evening. Everyone that walked in the door knew each other. It is also very loud around "bar" time (Friday, Saturday evenings). If you are looking to check out their food and atmosphere, I'd recommend stopping in before it gets a little loud! read more

First time to the bar looking to watch a Vikings pre-season game. Bar was empty The "owner " and her employees all drank constantly behind the bar. Rude and not new customer friendly Many better choices in Champlin Save your money read more

Been going to Hudy,s since they opened. The food was usually pretty good. Something happened this year and I can,t put a finger on it. The food is now bad, very bad. I have returned my breakfast the last 2 times I was there. To bad they lost the quality they once had. read more

I have been here a few times and have concluded it's your average breakfast. Nothing about the food really stands out. The pancake was pretty good. The coffee was pretty weak. The servers seemed overwhelmed but still friendly. read more

They don't use real butter (a blend of some sort unlike most restaurants I know) and the last few visits on Friday AMs the poached eggs were rocks and the holly sauce on my bennies were curdled/separated. I hope they change because they used to be so good. I'll try them again in a few weeks and update my review if back to they way they were. Wait staff is great. read more

I love the food at Hudy;s it is fantastic. My favorite sandwich there is the Husband Steak Sandwich. I order it anytime I come in for lunch. It is so delicious. I would really recommend trying it. read more

I'm a guy who will eat breakfast foods any hour of the day or night, and have done so at basically every cafe, diner and greasy spoon that's crossed my path since I was old enough to have ten bucks in my pocket on a given Sunday morning. There might be no better single plate of food on Earth, on those occasions that require it, than a stack of pancakes. And there may be no better stack of pancakes, in my redoubtable opinion, than the one served at Hudy's. I've tried for the better part of a decade to recreate them at home with only passing success. Luckily, I have ample opportunity to sample them for continued experiments. read more

We tried meatloaf sandwhich, chicken grilled, rueben. The dinner was good. the chicken was a little dry. The chips were stale and were sent to garbage. There were no condiments or other features so take it home so you can add what you want. read more
