Good Day Cafe offers a delightful dining experience with "fantastic food and service." Known for its "extensive and varied menu," patrons rave about the "best breakfast, omelets, and pancakes."

    All of the staff members were great- courteous, helpful and friendly. Our table ordered mostly lunch items The soup was delicious, the salads were large and really good. Two people shared the spinach/mushroom soufflé and said it was great. I had requested a table that was more quiet, and the booth where we sat filled that need. Perhaps that corner booth seating deserves some upgrades for comfort and aesthetics, but it worked just fine for us.

    This is such a cozy nice restaurant. I did not like that we had to wait for everyone in our party to be there before seated. It was an only a party of 5. The food is great! The ambiance was great too. Our server could have been alittle more attentive she didn’t even ask if we wanted more coffee it’s always nice if they come around to see if you need anything else. Overall it was a really good place to eat and we enjoyed the food and how fast it came to our table. I would recommend this restaurant for sure!

    We had another great meal here. The server was friendly and the food came very quickly. The portions are big, so we left full. We will be back!

    Everything was ok except for the noise level. There were 3 of us - and had to frequently lean in to hear each other. It was still load, even after almost every table emptied out from the lunch crowd. We probably won’t go back again.

    Hostess very nice and tried to get us to quieter area around corner from front door but couldn't for a while so we took a table in the dining room area. Waitress was very friendly and on top of everything. I suggested the Huevos Rancheros because I've had them before and both of my friends loved them! Only downside is it is SO NOISY in the restaurant. It makes it difficult to converse but overall we had a great lunch and a good time together.
