Coffee Cottage Cafe

Reviewed By Tammie L - Midland, Texas

My Mom and I went to eat a late breakfast (around 1:00 pm!). I had waffles, bacon, eggs, hash browns, and toast. The waffles are Belgium waffles and very light. They had a strawberry glaze and whipped cream that looked very sweet but it wasn't. The service was great and very attentive. The restaurant is very clean. It was a great breakfast and place to go!

Rockin Relics

Reviewed By AMAPhD - New Haven, Connecticut

We came here because of an ad and were not disappointed. A great vintage restaurant, filled with locals, where the food is prepared by a couple of very nice ladies. We enjoyed large (styrofoam) bowls of chicken sausage soup (we could have had lasagna soup!!!) The mugs of tea and coffee were huge, which we really appreciated.

Rancho Grande

Reviewed By chazcat99 - Lewes, Delaware

In the same parking lot as the obelisk for the geographic center of North America is one of the best Mexican restaurants I've eaten in. The place was clean, well lit, staff was very friendly, professional and courteous. The food was very good and rather large portions. Price was very reasonable too. Only negative is they don't have a beer or liquor license.

Dairy Queen

Reviewed By Cindy A - Winnipeg, Canada

Dairy Queen is always a good place for ice cream. The only thing about this one is that the service was very slow, but they did have a sign up saying they were short staffed and to please be patient. I really liked the fact that they did that.

3rd Street Station

Reviewed By epazota - Minnesota

Looks like place locals go. I like these kind of places. The bottled beer choices were varied and the server knew her beers. The signature steak was great as previously described. I typically prefer sweet potato fries. Here I preferred their seasoned fries

Dakota Farms

Reviewed By Ilse035 - Iowa

Our extended family (at least 43 people) recently stayed in the Northern Lights Motel and ate almost every meal for two days at the attached Dakota Farms Restaurant. Breakfasts were free, but we paid for any deviation from the five choices: I wound up paying $7 for a thick piece of ham and a glass of orange juice to add to eggs, toast, and hash browns. Breakfast was the best meal; my sister reported ordering a hamburger, and it appeared on bare bun, with no condiments or lettuce, tomato, or onion. The peach pie a cousin's husband ordered was "not as good as yours," he said to his wife. We tried the knoephla (pronounced neffla) soup, which was bland chicken dumpling soup with spinach. The waitstaff was run off its feet--our waitress was efficient but unsmiling. My cousin ordered oatmeal for breakfast and never received milk or cream to pour on it--he resorted to coffee creamer. Several of us bought the $13 ceramic Dakota Farms mugs, which are attractive and sold for a charity. The waitperson who sold me the mug also gave me a free cup of coffee--nice of her. The restaurant is large, with long tables assembled for groups, and we did sit around and chat after each meal. Locals eat there often, too.

This Subway was surprisingly nice and clean. It's conveniently located across the street from the Pioneer Museum. I haven't been a big fan of Subway in the past, but I enjoyed a great flatbread sandwich.
