    Movie time
    Jimmy K.

    Wings and fries for a quick dinner and can watch a movie (didn't stay for the whole movie). Sweet spicy wing sauce was good. Wings a little small though. Very very attentive server. Service was awesome!! The place is a little run down but it is an old town and probably didn't have a huge budget to set up. Good points and bad points but was nice to try out.

    Halloween theme decorated inner dining area with movie theatre--perfect for youngsters

    Hubby and I arrived midday and found the diner with few customers. We chose the back room with the movie since it was an option for lunch. Mandie N seated us and suggested a movie she thought we'd like (popular children's cartoon). Hubby ordered the Zuzu's Got Beef with fries and a sweet tea. I ordered a Solon with Onion Rings (extra). The Solon includes a runny egg and bacon--which was actually quite tasty. During the time we waited, a trio came in with one small boy. When we finally got our order, I discovered the onion rings (although they look good in the pic (couldn't see them in the dark, of course), were over-cooked and the batter hard. Hubby, now an admitted light-weight was not able to finish his sandwich, although he thought it was also tasty. It was explained that the server was alone, performing all duties and we allowed as how it might have been a problem handling the food orders with waiting tables, although hubby's fries were great. A different experience and one you might try, particularly if there is additional staff on hand.

    Main Street Cafe - Chicken Caesar Salad

    We had a fairly solid brunch at Main Street cafe! Always love a good breakfast option in the square…read moreand they have a quite large menu to choose from. The interior is tiny but the seating options are more plentiful than it would seem! The interior is lovely and there is a beautiful mural of the lake county fairgrounds that deserves to be admired. My only suggestion would be to perhaps consider changing their television programming. Regardless of political views I can't imagine many customers want to come to brunch and watch Fox News. It makes the brunch experience feel a little too much a truck stop diner vibe. The music was nice so either eliminate the tvs all together or throw on something more pleasant. For food we went with the chicken fried steak sandwich and a Mexican skillet. I appreciate that the avocados were all very fresh! Overall it was very good. The sandwich was huge and so delicious!

    I've been going here for many years. yesterday, 10/27/25 I visited to find their new menu which is…read moreVERY limited. I ordered a gyro and the indifferent waitress (who is always in the place acting agitated) tells me "we're out of gyros". We walked out. I used to see the owners every visit but now it appears the kids have taken over and are determined to ruin the place. We have probably eaten here 50 times or more over the years but yesterday was the last visit with these numbskulls. Right down the street is "Greek Islands"...better food, nicer people. Mainstreet is a trainwreck and the kids don't even realize they've run it off course.

The atmosphere was comfortable and inviting, and I loved that they took the time to decorate so nicely for the holiday. The inside was done really well and made the whole place feel even more welcoming. The service was undeniably great. The girl handling the coffee told me "my pleasure" when I asked for a half cup on my refill, which stuck with me because it was such a small but genuine touch. Our waitress was also very easygoing and pleasant, and she made the meal that much better. The coffee was spectacular, and the food was outstanding. The waffle was absolutely magical. Everything about this visit made me want to come back, and I already can't wait to try lunch next time. Definitely a spot worth checking out.

The atmosphere is nice and the place looks like it wants to be a solid neighborhood spot, but the execution just isn't there. The coffee was mediocre at best -- not awful, just bland and forgettable, especially for a café that clearly takes itself seriously. Drinks came out lukewarm and lacked flavor, like they were rushed or poorly measured. Service was polite, but slow and unorganized. Nothing outright rude, just a lack of attentiveness and urgency that makes the whole experience feel sloppy. Prices don't match the quality, which is probably the biggest letdown. I'm giving it two stars instead of one because the space itself is decent and there is potential here. But until the coffee improves and service tightens up, it's not a place I'd go out of my way to return to.
