No kidding, don't let the gas station vibes throw you, this place has great eats. We walked in through the gas station part of the building and were surprised to see the rustic decor of a medium sized dining area and an adjacent bar. It was a pretty full dining room and we sat ourselves. It didn't look promising as we saw one waitress and one bartender. However, after a brief wait, the waitress came to our table and assured us she would return as quickly as possible to get our drink and food orders. She returned as promised. Our drinks arrived a short time later. They were well made and attention was paid to get us another round as we finished the first. Our table had ribs, prime rib and a French dip sandwich. The portion size was great and the food arrived hot. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was tasty. The prime rib had great flavor, was prepared as ordered and had very little fat. The French dip was also tasty. Truth be told, a salad bar would make this a true five star rating. The salads served with the meal were nice but very run-of-the-mill. Will we go back in the future? You betcha!

We've come here a few times and decided to stop in again around 8:45 AM, there was just our party, a regular at the bar, and two other tables. I'm sure during peak tourist season this place gets slammed, but we basically had the restaurant to ourselves. We all ended up getting different things, I got the garden burrito sans tomato. It was pretty good, could make use a tad more seasoning though. The sour cream and salsa gave it a little more flavor but it was nothing special. The burrito itself though was cooked perfectly and all of our meals came out super hot and fresh. Next time I'd like to try the fisherman's skillet. Two other people in my party opted for the 3 meat skillet and omelet & both liked it. Portions are very generous here, the price is fair, and the service is good. The Village Cafe is a reliable spot for breakfast if you're in the area or wanting to try something new!
