    BBQ Grilled Cheese Sandwich
    John S.

    Some of the nicest food service workers I've ever met. Super helpful when selecting a meal. They overcharged us and came over while we were eating to inform us of the refund. Then the worker came over to check how our food was and if we needed anything else. Highly recommend the BLT or the BBQ Grilled Cheese. If you do the meal, get the parmesan ranch style chips. The portions were great! The interior has a small store and a dining area beside the salad bar. The restroom is small but has a baby changing area if needed.

    Found another gem in West Lafayette! When you walk into The Homestead you're immediately transported to a farm stand that has a cafe attached. The ambiance was soothing. . .soft, relaxing music was playing in the background. I went for lunch when they offer soups, sandwiches, and pizza. I had half a Homestead Stack and the salad bar as a side. The fresh made bread was toasted to perfection while the inside was warm and juicy with ooey, gooey melted cheese. Be sure to visit the shop on your way out to take home more tasty treats!

    Breakfast Croissant 10/10! First time here and it didn't disappoint. I got some to go items and a hot meal as well. I'll definitely be back. This place is the perfect place to go if you want meals frozen for a gift.

    Simple sandwich stop but very tasty. I had the Italian with the dressing on the side and was very satisfied with the delicious crunch of the bed and melty cheese. They also have a salad bar and tons of home cooked frozen meals to go.

    Menu as of 9/12/22

    Let me start with straight up honesty here. When I saw that this place had ALL 5 Star reviews, I was skeptical. Looked to me like some sort of "loading of stars" going on here, but I must come clean. This place absolutely 100% deserves ALL THE STARS. The Homestead is part homemade food to go (they have a lovely little frozen grocery area with tons of homemade food items) and part fresh food made of excellent, highest quality. It's a simple place where you order at the counter and then have a seat til your order is ready. They have a large, delicious looking salad bar (you pay by weight so prep your salad first and the pay), delicious looking desserts (the doughnut was in buy top 5 of best doughnuts of all time), and the most amazing sandwiches. I never knew a BLT could taste this good! My husband and I split a Stack sandwich - it was delicious. I don't imagine there is a single item on the menu where you could go wrong. We will be back to visit every time we see our kid in West Lafayette - it is that good!

    The Homestead is like a warmer, friendlier, less corporate Cracker Barrel. It has a charming old-timey vibe, and a down-home menu to match. Food-wise, the Homestead is something like a deli, with a decent salad bar, a *great* sandwich menu, and a tempting dessert menu to round out your stay. And "stay" is the right word here, with a few comfy couches and plush chairs to hang out in, a knick-knack shop, and generally a feel that makes you believe that they're glad you're there.

    I really liked it. I wish they had romaine lettuce on their salad bar though rather than that spring mix as an option.

This beloved Lafayette institution, which has graced our community for over two decades, truly lives up to its name, carrying forward a legacy of cherished family recipes, reputedly from the original 'Mammaw.' My recent dinner visit was a delightful experience, with the cozy atmosphere (9/10) providing the perfect backdrop for indulging in their incredible confections. The food quality here is consistently outstanding (9/10), and the custom cakes for events are simply works of art. However, the absolute must-try, and what truly stands out, are the Fancy Cupcakes--each a little masterpiece of flavor and decoration. It's clear that everything is made with passion and precision. The service (10/10) from Tina and her team is exceptionally friendly and attentive, making every guest feel valued. From the moment you arrive, you sense the dedication to quality and customization. If you're looking for something truly special, this is the place to go. The value (9/10) for such high-quality, handcrafted treats is excellent. I absolutely will be returning to Mammaw's Sweet Shop for more sweet delights. Pro-Tip: Parking is easy to find
