    Fried fish platter
    Jennifer J.

    Great restaurant! Super nice staff. Excellent menu. Clean bathrooms & restaurant. The fried fish was lovely, light & crisp. Loved the sweet potato waffle fries. Corn nuggets are pretty good. Cream corn is decent. Thanks for a great meal!

    Great food & great service! Hidden spot that's worth checking out! I would try the dessert!

    Delicious chicken livers, fries with a cat head biscuits!
    Phillip S.

    Service was very good, Chicken livers were cook perfectly, not dry and overdone like most places. Sides were very good also. It's just a little hole in the wall restaurant serving up excellent home cooking

    Hot chocolate

    Very good service. Average food. Good, wholesome, salt of the earth kind of breakfast. We came here exactly when they opened and they were prompt. Our server was very nice and I really hope he gets to realize his dream of working in SpaceX at some point in his life. My everything bagel sandwich was very good. The hash brown was a little oily. The French toast was pretty good too. The all-american breakfast was decent but the portion felt small. Pricing was ok. Lots of parking outside.

    Omelette

    Alright breakfast! Nothing too special but still good! I was pleasantly surprised! We always eat at Cupboard Cafe for breakfast in Clayton but decided to branch out and try something new. Sadly our server was very odd but he was trying. I had the Bacon Egg and Cheese sandwich on an everything bagel, which also comes with avocado. The sandwich was great and tasted very fresh but I would probably get it without avocado next time. The breakfast potatoes were alright but not what I'm used to. They were hard to eat because they were kind of just a mess of soggy potatoes. Overall, I enjoyed Sunday Cafe, though, but Cupboard Cafe still reigns as the best breakfast in Clayton.

    I had the Brisket dip. It was amazing. I only have a pic of the cookie   because I ate it all!

    The brisket was amazing. I got the brisket dip. Yadi got the pulled pirk sandwich The food dog on the cookie is okay

    Avocado Omelette
    Nate S.

    Solid country meal. My omelette was excellent. The pancakes are massive - I'd definitely recommend the extras in them, and know that you will take them home or waste a lot (which they feed to chickens!). Short wait but worth it overall. Nice people.

    Country fried steak and eggs over easy.

    Hi! Looking for a place to make reservations for a group of 8 during Thanksgiving week? Will you be open, have indoor seating and take reservations? We will be staying in Waterfall. Thanks!?

The establish was not busy. The tables were sticky and had visible signs of glass rings. For not being busy, it took a considerable amount of time for the food to come out. While my food was very good, the wife had fries that were cold. We were served food without any utensils or napkins. It took 8 minutes for utensils to arrive and one napkin each. We asked for more napkins, which never came. My wife mentioned the cold fries and she was brought another serving of equally cold fries. When we were finished, I asked the server for a couple to go boxes. We received one and had to ask for more; eventually getting one more box. It took an additional 10 minutes to get the check, and another 10 to have it retrieved with the credit card. The neighboring table was also dealing with cold fries.

The cinnamon roll was tasty - not too sweet, not too dry, not too moist - but it would have been better if it had been served warm for eat in diners. We ordered a variety of breakfast dishes, including corn beef hash (too salty even for me), calf liver (overcooked and dry), egg plate, and quiche. The egg part of the quiche was good but the crust basically uncooked. Each dish came with a biscuit, which had a great tang but interesting texture more like cornbread or coarse cake than flaky biscuit. The most annoying thing is that our food took 30-45 minutes to come out even though were were the only ones there? With no communication of the wait. They didn't even bring out the premade cinnamon roll as an appetizer until I asked. We were so hangry and were met with disappointing taste to boot.

I am not local to the area and I do wish I could revisit this establishment. My bar fly days have been long gone, yet I guess "closing the bar" is part of my genetic structure, and these things don't go away. It's not something that I intend on doing, but the conversation flows with me and around me, and people just don't want me to go home! So, we ended up hanging out with one of the owners, and this gave me an insight to the whole idea behind this concept. If you are interested in local, unique products, and search for new flavors, this is the place to find excellent quality drinks. There's in-house gin and bitters, and that is all I will say. Well, one more thing I will say: don't be surprised if this bar becomes a national destination. The bar itself is classy and inviting, the music is great, the crowd is cool, but the hospitality is above tops. This place has it all and deserves a visit.
