I really had high hopes for this place, realizing that amongst all the choices in West Lafayette or…read moreLafayette, this was definitely a cuter smaller probably ma and pa owned place rather than the other big conglomerate of chains. I don't like giving out low or poor reviews. However, this visit was really unfortunate. Upon walking in there was no one who greeted you and when she did emerge from the kitchen, there was nothing along the lines of high welcome or good morning rather it was how many. Our waiter only came to our table once for a refill on coffee however never asked us how our meal was after it had arrived. He also did not give us the check on his little mobile machine, although we did see him give checks to other tables right next to us on his little mobile machine, if that is what I saw. they made us walk all the way back to the front in order to check out and pay. Our waiter did take the right order, which was my omelette with no cheese however, as you can see from the pictures, there was definitely cheese in this omelette. That was also disappointing. My partner ordered toast which came with his meal, and the bread was not toasted at all in fact, it looked like it was just simply taken out of the bag. The eggs also were not fresh eggs. He definitely came out of a carton. The country fried steak he ordered was definitely not steak as well. The only thing that really went well were my hashbrowns because they were toasted on the top part. The coffee here unfortunately tasted like brown hot water. the place photographs well, with all the hanging florals this unfortunately really missed the ball and missed the point. It was a huge waste of money and they really need to work on service and food here. If you have other choices for breakfast, please go somewhere else because this is very disappointing. Our waiter was not attentive. When we saw someone cleaning a table that it really wasn't being cleaned it was simply being cleared out. No cleaning tools or cleaning fluids were used at all in the process of cleaning. I didn't think anyone could really ruin breakfast orders, but they definitely managed to do it.

Greetings! Tucked…read moreaway in a quiet corner of Lafayette, Indiana lies my next discovered gem to share with you: North End Cafe. Pleasant staff greeted us upon arrival and the genial vibe continued throughout our meal. Props to Paige for great service during an obviously busy Saturday morning. Quaint decor and quality service gave me high hopes that the meal would be a winner, too...and it was! Dishes were served hot and perfectly plated...and the first bite sealed the deal: Delicious! Flavor development and fresh tastes met me bite after bite...excellent in every way! If mild coffee is the way you enjoy your coffee, you'll enjoy their coffee...I prefer a more robust blend and missed it the table with the symphony of other great flavors. The carefully clean dining room and bathrooms tell me that management covers all facets of running a great restaurant...kudos! I'll be sure to return to The North End Cafe in the future and I hope you have a similar experience when you cross through the door for the first time! Until next time...tk

The tomato juice is very nice, and I'm pleased to say the coffee is perfect. Everything was great except for the hollandaise sauce. It wasn't a bad sauce, just not real hollandaise. No problem; it's easily avoided.

On our first visit they had no bagels and had to do the sandwich on a ciabatta roll which was fine (but they also didn't have bacon on that trip either).

Once a latte gets above five bucks something happens, expectations! Single origin, hand made…read moresyrups, divine blend of balance bitter notes and creamy sweet flavors, those are the established mainstream essentials for any spot aspiring to be better than Dunkin! I have twice enjoyed the inspired space here getting me far away from the dull Midwest, a huge menu boasting all sorts, plenty to pick from with fan favorites and seasonal picks, espresso seemed decently roasted and matches with the basic white girl vibes however the pricing is entirely optimistic. Greyhouse and Indie Coffee Roasters have the same issue. My large latte with soy nearly touched eight bucks which is fine for house crafted syrups and top tier bean juice. But no and also sadly again no, there are no real flavors only plastic pumps of sucrose. My latte was extremely sweet, likely hiding Starbucks quality java. Eleventh House, Sacred Grounds, Wanderlust and even the cold brew oddity that is Java House make for better quality and value.

I'm also a sucker for the fluff provided by the egg white, plus who doesn't love a little added protein! The Pumpkin Pie Martini is a great seasonal compliment as the stand in espresso martini. Mom's Bourbon Cider was delicious, served hot it provides a warm hug in drink format. The campfire came next and wow! Strong and delicious, the freshly roasted marshmallow garnish is a win for sure.
