A nice clean place with good service and wonderful food. The food was fresh, hot and tasty.
Visited 3/18/23
When I walked into the restaurant, the first thing I noticed was how clean it was. The parking lot was packed, which gave me a good sign that the food was worth trying.
While waiting for the hostess we noticed a compliment to the restaurant from a lady named Shelby at the register. (Pictured)
We were seated quickly and greeted warmly by our server. As we looked over the menu, our waitress explained the bread was made fresh every day, with options ranging from white wheat to sourdough and rye.
I was thrilled to hear this and ordered the uptown special - a breakfast sandwich with two eggs over hard (you could opt for one egg), bacon, American cheese, and my choice of feta cheese and spinach on sourdough bread.
To keep it healthy, I also ordered a bowl of fruit on the side.
We also ordered a second sandwich, which was the same but with a pancake instead of fruit.
The coffee was a bit more expensive than the hot cocoa, but it was well worth it. It was rich and flavorful, and the hot cocoa was made with sweet miss hot chocolate cocoa powder and water.
The coffee was served in an uptown café coffee mug, which was white on the outside and orange on the inside.
They offered to sell us a mug for $15, but we declined.
Overall, the experience was fantastic, and the food was delicious. Fresh bread makes all the difference, especially when it's made daily.
We will definitely be visiting again. They got a four-star do the pricing structure was high.
First time visiting this place for Brunch with family.. wow .. I loved the food.. hash browns and chicken quesadillas are must try here .. fast service
I will admit, I have never found any place that serves breakfast without serving French toast to be remotely exciting. The silver dollar pancakes weren't bad. Despite requesting flimsy bacon, it still came out crispy. I have no use for bacon that cracks to bits when any pressure is applied. That's like requesting well-done steak. It murders the flavor and texture of the bacon. The hot chocolate tastes like Swiss Miss and is overpriced and not bottomless.
Food is always good. Their in house hot sauce is awesome.
But the service here is not just good it's great. I come here pretty often. The entire staff is nice and out-of-their-way helpful. I'm not sure how every single employee is so outwardly nice and effortlessly glad to help, but here it's true.
One time I didn't have a hair tie for my daughter. One staff member found me one. Another time I left my LV sunglasses on the table. The server ran out to my car before I left the lot to return them.
These are just off the top of my head. They make great conversations with my daughter and they make it a great environment.
Gr8 experience, service and food... First time visitor @ the Uptown Cafe. Will return with others... Gr8 Location service and food.
I came in curious, and I left IMPRESSED! This location was always so busy with the previous restaurant. They were often on a wait. I have no doubt that Uptown Cafe will be in that same spot soon!
The menu choices were good with some traditional choices and some new options that were different. I had the Cajun Cranberry Salad and my friends had the Philly Steak with an order of breadsticks.
The food came out quickly and was delicious!! The breadsticks were a surprise to me. They were perfectly prepared with a crisp outer crust and a soft tender inside.
The salad I had was Amazing! They use a homemade dressing that was light but full of flavor. The combination of chicken with the salad ingredients was delicious, and I left wishing I had ordered two salads. It was that good!
Our server, Susanne S, was flawless in her menu knowledge. She also had that extra energy that makes you feel seen, heard, and cared about. It doesn't work when people fake it, but when it's genuine, it's a great addition to the dining experience when it happens.
I asked to speak to the managing partner and my colleagues shared our appreciation of the food and the excellent service provided by Susanne. During our conversation we heard the story of a managing partner that had invested in this restaurant in order to leave a legacy for her children.
A great insider tip, the restaurant is still building their breakfast business, so if you want a great place to eat without the crowd, get there sooner than later. I promise you this won't last!

Give Uptown Cafe a try, you won't be sorry that you did!
The food here is perfectly edible. If you’re looking for simple breakfast classics, they you’ll be happy.
-1.5 stars because the corned beef hash uses chopped up lunch meat vrs a brisket style corned beef cut, and the poached eggs were not … poached. More of a sunny side up version of poached (like when they’re made in a poaching pan or device rather than the traditional way)
-.5 stars because the service was a little curt.
