Nestled in a charming setting adorned with antiques, this small café has garnered mixed reviews. Patrons appreciate the inviting atmosphere and generous portions, particularly enjoying standout items like the chicken salad sandwich and giant pancakes. However, several diners have reported lackluster food quality, such as greasy ham and undercooked hash browns, alongside frustratingly slow service. While many have fond memories and continue to return, others express disappointment, citing health concerns regarding silverware cleanliness and poor meal preparation. Overall, the café offers promise, but inconsistency in both food and service may deter some from returning.

Was A Caldwell at School House Cafe a mag?
Staff was very friendly and food was absolutely delicious! As other reviews say, the portions are sizeable. Hashbrowns seem homemade and were nice and crispy. Rancher burger was amazing, nice and hot. Coffee with homemade whipped cream too! If you're in McGregor you should visit. View all feedback.

What Claudeen Marik dislikes about School House Cafe:
Cute small cafe. Food was good, but service slow. Our waitress brought our drinks, then left to run an errand. 1 1/2 hrs for lunch was way to long. Maybe an off day, would try again. View all feedback.

My family ate here twice, and both times were delicious! We had pancakes that were the size of a plate, yummy bacon and eggs, delicious homemade French toast, and biscuits and gravy. We will definitely be back when we visit family. Also, they had homemade donuts, huge carmel rolls, cinnamon rolls and bars. Yum!!

I've never been anywhere quite like the School House Cafe. The atmosphere has a mix of child-like wonder and coming home. The ladies who run the place are sweet and hard working. The food was great- especially if you like hash browns!

As you enter the restaurant, you might expect it to be larger inside. The atmosphere is lively, with plenty of interesting decor to enjoy, but it was quite crowded, making it difficult to navigate through the space.

This place is my favorite of all time!! The main cook makes the best chicken salad sandwich. I could eat a whole loaf of that sweet rye bread. They are struggling with young staff like most people but any inconveniences is totally worth it!!! You always get large portions here! Stopping here is a must for me whenever I am driving through even if it isn't a meal time. Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating with gluten free options!
