Lots of coffee drink options- loved the snickerdoodle latte. Friendly baristas- helpful when we dropped one of the drinks accidentally and remade the drink with a smile and no charge for the replacement. Would definitely be interested in trying the brewery if we were in town longer!

They have a large dining space with cozy corners, background music and low lighting. There are 3 buffet tables, 2 hot and one cold. Overall we enjoyed the food, though some were lacking in flavor. The dessert/cold bar was pretty sizable. My only critique is that the air conditioning is cranked high and the hot food temps were lukewarm. Not sure if this is due to the powerful air conditioning or lack of heat on the hot table overall.

Inside is old school wood panelling, a long bar, and a good sized dining area. The staff was super friendly and we were seated quickly despite the dinner rush. We all ordered the Fried Chicken which was apparently named best in Minnesota a few years ago by WCCO. Between us we got fries,, baked potato, and 2 different kinds of coleslaw for sides. Everything was delicious and the chicken was perfectly crispy. If you're in New Ulm this is definitely worth the short drive over. Note that they only take cash or checks but they do have an ATM on-site.

I get it--it's a small town, it's for locals, and Minnesota isn't known for its food, but holy cow…read moredid they fail. On a roadtrip, stopped by after checking out the Airbnb because we were hungry and needed food. Saw this place, looked sketchy, but it's the best we were going to find. It's an old diner with a church basement-activities area vibes Someone asked for the omelette and they had melted a kraft single slice on top of the thin omelette. I asked for hashbrowns and...well, please see the picture I shared. The defrosted hashbrowns were unreasonably undercooked and sad. Just sad. Nothing was salted, I added hot sauce to the hashbrowns to make it edible. The waitress was a young lady who was probably confused to see us there but was polite and nice the whole time. Sometimes when we travel, we sometimes run into a time where places like this are the ONLY option, believe me THIS place has mediocre food, but I'm still giving it 5 stars because I see that the locals love this place. Travelers are visitors into their small town world, and even if we don't like the food, plenty of other people do. So come patronize this business Some tips-#1 ask the waitress to ask the chef to leave the food on the grill a little longer, this will ensure that the food is cooked all the way #2 don't get the omelette #3 do ask for coffee, they use folgers and sometimes that's all you need while road tripping #4 everyone will stare at you as you enter, pick one person and just stare back, they will look away and the other patrons will quickly realize that you stare back and they'll try harder not to look #5 eat pancakes and syrup. Safe Travels everyone!
