I knew I was going to have a good meal, when I asked the two women at the next table how their food was. They raved about the omelettes and most of the other items on the menu. I enjoyed the hash and eggs, but I admit that I like pretty much every type of corned beef hash. Great table service with lots of smiles . A couple of things to note. The hashbrowns are not just frozen patties, and you can add onion to them for free. The cook working the flattop is clearly a master at his craft. Be aware that this is a cash only restaurant, but they do have ATM machine. All in all, this is exactly the kind of experience. I hope to have coming into a town. I'm not familiar with. I would absolutely eat here again.. read more

id give it no stars if i could. Granted it was busy, it took a while to get our food. The food wasnt all that great. i couldve made better at home. i wanted to do something nice. they served us the wrong plate, they did remake it. The eggs were over done. I get the check and i proceeded to hand the waitress my card, she informed me they only take cash. Nothing was said about that on the door. I just moved here and wasnt aware. I should've went to my spot in Springfield, Steves off of 14th and Main. read more

My husband and I frequently visit Kevin. Definitely the best quality food in town. Big burgers, never frozen and tasty. Big ham, fresh eggs and good service. And they serve real avocado. Yup Kevin's is our place. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I visited Kevin's Cafe in Lebanon, for a late breakfast and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to find a seat and the quiet, relaxed atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The wait staff was attentive and efficient, bringing over the menu, coffee, and water right away. I knew what I wanted, and they took my order promptly. My food arrived quickly, and I was impressed with the eggs. Basted eggs can be tricky, but here they were cooked perfectly--runny and just the right consistency. Everything was delicious, and the coffee stayed hot throughout my meal. I'll definitely be back for another visit. Note: Cash only... they do have an ATM but if you don't like fees, bring some green. read more

The food is always good. Service is A+ People who like burgers will delight in the burgers here. They are large and tasty, about the best I have ever enjoyed, and nicely priced. Other places get the "best of" reviews. Kevin's deserves them. It is always enjoyable to watch Kevin working his magic at the grill. read more

We went to get a quick bite well within posted hours, but as we were parking, they closed. Later found out that's normal - the owner just holding whatever hours they please. So, who knows if the food is any good. Unreliable schedule doesn't augur well for a better experience. read more

The food was great and my coffee cup was constantly filled. The service was great and everyone was very friendly, highly recommend!

Best omelette I have ever had. Bacon, avocado, cheese. Fluffy, moist, and delicious. Onions on yhe hash browns is a must. Our server was very attentive and nice. Will be back when in town again. read more

so thankful we still have great people who provide a service and product that exceeds reasonable expectations and prices. This is the standard for great food and great service . Hope everyone takes the time to experience this amazing place. read more

Delicious Sunday breakfast and Friendly service @ Kevin's Cafe in Lebanon, OR. ! Returning customers and we were not disappointed! The staff worked well together and our waitress was very enthusiastic and checked on us frequently. It was a pleasure to watch Kevin fill orders on the cooktop. It made me want a blueberry pancake of my own, and it was delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed all of our breakfast and we're glad we came back. Older building and outdated decor, could use a makeover, but no big deal when the food is on point and we got to see the magic happen! Thank you! read more

Cash only, but the breakfast was really good and freshly made. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice mom and pop cafe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Loved it!

Decided to go to Kevin's for lunch and had their special which was a kind of a halibut fish and chip thing. The fish had a very strange coating and a couple pieces look like they've been cooked for about three hours as they were almost black in color. It was also served with garlic toast, which apparently was a piece of plain bread, toasted with garlic salt and butter, not impressed. If I was to rate the food alone, I would read it maybe one star. Service was very good. Had no problem with that. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience is quite a different thing; it feels dirty and inside, and I went to wash my hands ahead of time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had to walk down a very narrow hallway to a tiny bathroom. I had to move a vacuum in front of the door in order to close the door and then being a nice guy. I put the vacuum back in front of the door to hold it open when I was done.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If that doesn't make you want to try another restaurant, I don't know what would. read more

Chicken fried steak, side of bacon. That what was ordered as I was looking for a great greasy spoon to get one of those fantastic breakfasts that harken back to another time and place. I love a great chicken fried steak and a lot of places either don't do a good job or don't use a thin enough, or too thin a piece of meat, and the breading is either too soggy because there is too much or they over cook it. That isn't a problem that you wil have here at Kevin's. The sausage gravy is to die for by the way. The hashbrowns are great shredded potatoes that are crisped up just right and then you add the country gravy onto it and you will have a delicious meal. The eggs were cooked to perfection, which I got a over easy, thus making the yolks still soft and runny! Just the way I like my eggs. read more

Kevin's Cafe - Chicken fried steak and eggs - Cafes Near Me - Lebanon, Oregon

Let's start with a public service announcement... this place is CASH ONLY, so bring some bills or fork over $3 in service fee for the in-house ATM. Okay, end PSA. Definition of a hole-in-the-wall, and not in a bad way. I would advise sitting at one of the tables or booths otherwise you spend your time staring at the cooktop of the open kitchen. Not bad, just a bit loud. Piggy Burger was GREAT! Just what I was looking for... no smash burger, no skimpy patty, just a good ole fat burger with bacon (cooked floppy FYI), egg, ham, and all the fixin's. The accompanying fries were good, if simple, and the coffee worked. Very friendly staff, especially if you like being called "hun" in that classic diner way. I coukd see the local support as I was there midday during the week and there were never less than a half-dozen patrons seated and flowing through. I will happily come back... there was a jalapeno and Swiss burger on the specials board that I missed... and I saw that it comes with tots! And when one is in the country, there are always chicken fried steak and big breakfasts to try read more

Kevin's is the equivalent of a dive bar. Food is all scratch made and super good. The building is old and it's a little dirty inside. Mostly dust in all the high spaces. I had Bacon and cheese omelette and hash browns with gravy. You watch (Im assuming Kevin) whip fresh eggs up for the omelette and cook everything behind the counter. Gravy is scratch made and very flavorful. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Good food, good service, wonderful people and their music takes me back to my youth![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The cafe is designed around a 1950's diner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My favorite breakfast place in town. Small and old place but the best gravy in town. Kevin is fun to watch and if not to busy he interacts with people. Wait staff are wonderful and very pleasant to interact with. Need to be aware that it is cash only, no cards. read more

Good old fashioned diner. The wait staff was friendly, fast and never let my coffee get cold. The food was delicious. Husband had chicken fried steak, hash browns all smothered in sausage gravy. It was tender and crispy (not greasy) and the potatoes were fresh. I had the sausage, egg & cheese on English muffin. Oh. Yum. Hand Pattie's sausage. This little $5 gem was very filling and tasty. My only complaint is this is a cash only business. Definitely worth the trip for good old fashioned diner food. It my not be fancy, but the food is why you should come. read more

The staff was amazing in this local diner. The food leaves something to be desired. I ordered an omelette and it was served overcooked (brown) on the outside. My wife ordered a waffle and it was soggy like it had been microwaved. Her scrambled eggs were also overcooked and were served in a solid clump. The place could use some maintenance. Several of the booth and bar seats are in need of replacement. The place was slammed because it was parade day. The waitstaff was managing well. read more

Started going in Kevin's café when his mother ruined it it's been the same all the time good size food portions, well cooked and reasonable prices is kind of like a dinosaur prices will soon force him out of business. There's no aviance it's just a place to go on a sit around and yak over a cup of coffee and then go about your day. It's not the type of place if you want to take your parents after church on Sunday you're just using that type of a restaurant for those of you who can remember the chili bowl this is very similar to the chili bowl and that used to be a place I went when the Park Street theater was still in business, not that I'm dating myself, but it's been a while. Bottom line... Good food, reasonable prices get in, eat and get out. read more

Great place, best breakfast I've had in a long time. Loved the gravy and onions on hash browns!

Kevin's is the quintessential American Diner experience . Filling reasonably priced portions served up hot with all the coffee and water you can drink. The sizzling griddle, clacking of silverware and catty banter between regulars defines the ambiance, surely a scene played out time and time again all over the USA. The wait can be around 30 mins or so after you order but this place is busy and the food is all made fresh to order. Surely, Kevin's Cafe is a cornerstone of our little town and well worth a visit if you're looking for something familiar or seeking a peek into the culture of the American working class. read more
