We recently came back through the area and changed our route to come back! The shrimp tacos are enormous and packed with flavor. The steak and chicken tacos were just as delicious and cooked perfectly. Definitely get the corn too. We also loved the toppings bar and sauces inside. The service is always quick and friendly. Even though it's consistently busy, they do a great job keeping the line moving, the wait wasn't long at all. Highly recommend, totally worth the detour if you are in the area!

This rating is based on service only! Been dining here for years and UNFORTUNATELY my server over…read morethe past 8 months has been Jen. She is rude, dismissive, zero personality, makes you feel like she hates her job & the customer. I can't stand when I am sat at my table & she slides over with no smile, no happy greeting or welcome, just a puss asking can I get you something g to drink. She gives me so much anxiety from her demeanor that I want to ask for a new server, but I don't want to have all the staff think it's me. She's horrible quite frankly and doesn't belong in the food service industry or dealing with the public. Either she hates her job, hates people or both. I can't see Tony keeping someone on who is not pleasant consistently every time I am there. Maybe she should stay in the kitchen or perhaps find a new line of work that doesn't consist of dealing with the public. I would like to come back, but I will be sure to ask ahead who the server is, if it's her, I will ask for a new section. I will not spend my money being treated so poorly or rushed out the door as soon as you put your fork down. She either needs training or needs to go. Might I add, everyone that has come with me & we are stuck with her feels the same way. Not good!!

It's been a long time since I've walked into this diner. That being said, this did used to be a…read morehaunt my mom and I would go to sometimes for breakfast. I went alone today because I needed to pick a place for breakfast and get some sustenance in my body because I know I'm gonna need it. I'm working a side quest later today and I had time before my train came. There's not much to this diner, but it does kind of have an old-timey feel to it which is not at all a bad thing in this case. The lighting gives off a vibe that this place might have been more posh in a time long ago. But I think what really factors into my rating today is the customer service because all the employees I came across today here were super chill and nice. One of them took the time to notice I was wearing a fundraiser shirt and we talked a little bit about Tom Petty which was nice. One bit that might make you readers chuckle is that my waitress asked out of the blue if I vlog. I said no and she remarked I looked like I would be good at it. I smiled at that because little did they know I write reviews here on Yelp and I was not about to let them know that. On top of all that, service was very quick. In fact, it was quick enough to make me think twice about paying another visit to Spirit Cafe in the future. I was greeted immediately (I decided on a bar seat since I was by myself), they got my food out real quick, I got my coffee almost right after I ordered, and they even took care to bring out the syrup in advance with my coffee. Also, prices are very reasonable. For what I had today, my price was $12.29, which for 2026 is pretty good when you consider that breakfast was a full stack of french toast with a side of bacon. There is a $10 credit card minimum, but since I had a food order this time around I didn't mind that as much this time around. As for the food, coffee was good. I was given the full stack, sliced in half with butter to spread around, and 3 strips of bacon. And before any weirdos decide to judge me, yes I do put syrup on my bacon. Might as well since I'm having something such as french toast. The bacon was crispy and seasoned well. Where I do have a slight criticism for was the french toast. I usually do not like to see the egg whenever I am served this breakfast, and I was able to see the egg used in this order. It was also a little on the soggy side, but not too bad. It was an overall satisfying breakfast that will help tie me over to lunch and/or dinner. Honestly, even though my rating here is a 4, it really should be a 4.5 and that is what I would actually give it if half-stars were a thing. The customer service was excellent enough that you can't really go wrong with either rating here. I will gladly return another chance I get.
