Cafe 222

"March 2024: We had brunch at Cafe 222 on a Saturday around 8 am. There wasn't a line so we got seated quickly at a table outside. I ordered the blueberry cornbread waffle and added eggs and sausage links for $7.50. The waffle was delicious. You can taste the cornbread flavor and there were fresh blueberries in the waffle. I thoroughly enjoyed my food this visit as well. I definitely recommend this place for breakfast. June 2023: We had brunch at Cafe 222 at around 10:45 AM on a Tuesday. It was easy to find free parking but I expect that won't be the case on the weekend. The restaurant was not crowded so we were seated immediately. There is both indoor and dog friendly outdoor seating, but most of the outdoor seating isn't fully covered. It was drizzling when we arrived and we had our dog with us. The host was very kind and seated us just past the host stand in a fully covered outdoor area. He even brought a bowl of water and a few treats for our dog. We ordered the peanut butter and banana stuffed french toast and chili and cornbread waffle. We loved everything we ate! Peanut butter and banana lovers will really enjoy the french toast. You get three big pieces of french toast that are jammed packed with creamy peanut butter and ripe, soft bananas. The bread looks like simple sliced wheat bread but it's perfect as french toast. The chili and cornbread waffle was also excellent - a great savory option. The waffle was very soft and tender and it has a good corn flavor. The waffle was covered generously with chili and cheese and a dallop of sour cream. I would highly recommend Cafe 222 for brunch. The food was excellent and the service was friendly and fast. Plus, the outdoor seating area is dog friendly."

"Simple diner with bomb breakfast. Come here if you want homemade pancakes and waffles. They really are bomb! Ordered churro waffles and they were delicious! Crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Fresh cream on top plus a little melted chocolate on the waffle... I felt like I was in heaven. We also ordered blueberry pancakes and they were also yummy. Add $7.50 to make it a combo(comes with 2 eggs and 2 patties or sausages). The diner is cozy and definitely not big. I would avoid big groups because you probably will have trouble getting a table for any party bigger than 4 or 5."

"A lovely breakfast restaurant and family friendly. We had breakfast here 2 days in a row during our 5-day visit of the city. It was really lovely and the food was very tasty. The staff there was friendly, and despite how busy the place was, we were taken pretty good care. The only caution is that on a weekend, there will be a bit of a wait depends on the time you visit there. Overall, it was great and the waffle was delicious!!"
