Lunch at Baker's Cafe

Stopped for lunch today and had a fresh, hot meal for lunch and was able to beat the lunch crowd.

The Food:
~Country Fried Steak with gravy and two sides. Sliced carrots and mashed potatoes with gravy.
~One roll and one corn muffin
~Sweet tea with lemon was my drink of choice.

Fresh and delicious and the potatoes were not lumpy and had a really good taste with and without the gravy. They don't use instand food and you can tell in the flavor but if you like your food spicy, be prepared to add it yourself. They have wonderful food but it is not spiced or seasoned.
The bread was just right on the spot in both texture, taste and size. Two pieces of bread person.
Sweet tea had a good tea taste and it was sweet but not to sweet.

The Service:
~Pam was our server and she was smiling, pleasant and talking to her customers. She was quick with our bread and drinks and on the drink refills as well.
~Charlotte is the mom of the restaurant owner and does a little bit of everything there. She cooks, serves, runs the register where you pay for you meal and much more I'm sure. She was delightful and pleasant.

Phat Bites review

Food:
2 Big Jerk's, 1 Strawberry Fields and 1 Sesame Noodle Salad

The big jerk is a pork sandwich served on two yeast rolls with a spicy sauce and caramelized onions. The sesame noodle salad was a good serving with plenty of taste and the strawberry fields salad had a strawberry vinergerette with some nuts and stuff sprinkled throughout.

Staff:
Very nice, pleasant and concerned about me running late to pick it up. We didn't get to eat in the restaurant since we were working and had to get back to the hotel.

Atmosphere:
Fun, funky and laid-back with furniture that matches. They are wired but you have to bring your own computer.

Verdict:
Great place for a salad or sandwich but order ahead during lunch hours because it gets incredibly busy. Part of the Ellendale's family and well run by Julie and Michael, who own both restaurants.
