Very enjoyable place to eat at!! I got the “one plate sized” pancake and the fish & chips! Our server was so kind and attentive. We also tried the 1919 root beer in a frosted mug. Affordable prices and a very family friendly atmosphere!

Great little cafe only a few minutes off I-35 north of Des Moines, well worth a little detour if you're passing through. Truly outstanding pork tenderloin sandwich! Potato scoops are tasty also. Great service in a super clean restaurant. Also, look up their back story, maybe the best I've ever heard!

We were there on Thursday night the 22nd of February. It took forever for our order to be taken, and that was because the 2nd person to came in to work. The red head pretty much just stared at us and didn’t even bother to take our drink order. The food was good. We then waited around 10 minutes before I got up to buy some groceries and my husband was waiting for our ticket. He said the red head just looked at him several times and never attempted to bring him our check. It wasn’t until I came over with the groceries that she went to our waitress who was on the phone to get our check. We have NEVER had this bad of service before!!!

Great customer service, huge selection of food. Great for a small town like Bondurant.

Unfortunately we had a really bad experience. We sat for over an hour waiting for food with only two other tables full. There seemed to be some family drama with the ‘crew’ behind the counter. Lots of yelling and arguing happening. When we did get our food, it was burnt/over cooked. Also, there were small children, of one of the waitresses, running through the kitchen and behind the counter. Often times touching food boxes/food for the drive through.

I judge a place based off how good their burger is. Well it wasn't good, edible, but not worth $13.Patty was tasteless besides the burnt oil of the griddle, the bun was stale. Like over all it presented a good looking cheap burger.I can go to Lacheles and get an amazing burger and fries for the same cost.I don't want to sound like I am crapping in this place, I really want to support small businesses to help our local economy.But I feel the owners and management need to take a hard look at themselves and put some more pride in their craft. I'd give a 2/5 but this was a one time purchase, so ill give them a few months before I try again and see if they improve or not.

Wasn't impressed at all thought I had a fried pork chop instead of a tenderloin

Happy to see they left this little place inside when they sold this to fareway. The service is always great and the food is fast and good. I lean to the maidrite everytime but everything I have had was good. Definitely a sweet find if your ever in the area and need a Cafe meal

Wow, expensive . Take out order of tenderloin and onion rings $17.10. Was not wrapped in gold. Then on receipt wanted tip. No thank you. Use to be a good place to eat. WONT GO BACK.

First off, the service was very good. Our server was very pleasant and friendly. Once our order was placed, our meal came out pretty quickly. The prices are reasonable too. Pretty basic dinner type food, nothing all that special.Unfortunately I don't think that we will be returning. We live about 30 miles from Bondurant, and when we pulled into the parking lot, we were very disappointed that this cafe was located inside a Fareway grocery store. There's not even a wall dividing the store from cafe or a separate entrance, which would help a bit. We were hoping for a unique dinner atmosphere.

Start with server did a OK job.Good, side salad was crisp and dressing tasty. Rootbeer was good didn't notice no refills so was dry bt end of meal. Ordered a Chilli dog. Wasn't even room temperature, cheese didn't even start to melt. They offered to redo but was ready to eat and move on.Then ordered chocolate cream pie.Mistake. Could see server having trouble slicing, when served there was a sliver of crust on the end and a glob of the chocolate innards on plate. Whip cream topping was a river of white glob.No sure why this was even served was a total disaster. Server explained that the whip cream had freezer burn and couldn't set up ? Not sure this explanation is worth anything.It is what it is. Some days your the dog some days your the fire hydrant. This day I was the fire hydrant.Obviously needs a manager over seeing operations.My wife's breakfast meal was satisfactory.

Delicious food, highly recommend the tenderloin, cheese curds, onion rings, sidewinder fries and pretzel bites. Great place in a small town.
