I travel a lot. Local cafes are a big part of my travels. Stopped in at the Lakeside Cafe for a Saturday morning meal. Didn't wait to be seated since most local cafes don't worry about it. The locals were locals! Had a meat omelette with home fries and gravy. One of the best I've had in a long time. The potatoes were excellent. Service was attentive and the atmosphere was Texas.

Been here several times and have always had a pleasant meal and visit with the wait staff. Special orders don't upset them. As long as it's a substitute for a menu item. The atmosphere of the building and interior are fine. Fellow dinners....or guests. there have been a few grumpy guests that have made the visit not as pleasant. At our table, we didn't let them take away our enjoyment of a pleasant meal.

This place was actually referred to me by another restaurant. I was looking for so.e place that had chicken fried steak. So we found this place and tried it out. This place was nice and clean. The service was outstanding. The food was good except for one thing. The green beans tasted like they came right out of the can and dumped a gallon of pepper in them. Other than that, it was a good experience, and I will go back.
