Big breakfast, nice and hot! Great service.

Very, very good. My family goes there whenever we are in Bloomington. When my parents lived there for a while it was their favorite. The gluten free pancakes taste just like regular pancakes, just watch out because there may be cross contamination. The potatoes are amazing. Just home fries without gravy (but cheese!!!) are gluten free! They are great also! We had no wait, we just ate and got outΓ°ΕΈΛΒ [their motto]. Despite having a slightly aggressive motto, the staff was amazing and very accommodating to the gluten free issues. Very helpful! Happy busy cafe-like environment. Definitely a place college kids go to for breakfast a lot!

Best place for breakfast. Great service. Mackenzie was awesome
William Hutchinson
It was great and the pancakes are definitely worth a try, but it's about 5 dollars for orange juice so be careful

Bathroom was clean. Workers were friendly. Everything was brought to me quickly. Unfortunately, my omelette was very bland and the produce did not taste or look fresh. My omelettes taste better. Good service doesn't save the food

This place survives off nostalgia and the deadened taste buds of drunk college kids. I've tried 3 meals here and all were awful.

Went on a Sunday morning and was told it would be about 30 minutes until our table was ready. It was worth the wait. We shopped for a bit next door until we were called. Ordered the Paxton potatoes with two eggs up top. The mix of potatoes, sausage gravy, cheese and eggs in a bowl is a delicious combination. Highly recommend the Paxton potatoes and the Deli.

I love this place.....great memories w both my children while they were on campus and a favorite now that they are grown and gone! Great food and energy! Enjoyed the pumpkin pancakes and pumpkin butter...Γ°ΕΈΛΒ

This is actually Lounge 51, as I know it. It is a beatiful space, nice bar, great for after work or social gatherings; a coffee shop below, if you are not into alcohol. First experience of food was it smelled delicious (a big juicy burger). I tried the jerk chicken slider and burger slider. I would do the jerk chicken again, the burger slider was average; I'll get to that big juicy burger soon. More to come, it's a new spot for me!

Doesn't open until 8 am on Saturdays so had to wait awhile for it to open . Haven't been in years and was good. Salsas were homemade and spicy. Omlette was huge. Wish they had hit tea that wasn't just hot water and a tea bag but otherwise good breakfast and excellent service.

Great late lunch! Excellent service, WiFi & the food is always AWESOME! Bird for the Wise sandwich was very tasty... Could've used a little less mayo & chunky/fruity cranberry instead of just a spread. Side of fruit salad was*real* cut fruit, like you have at home---THANK YOU!!! Γ°ΕΈΛβΉ Banana Nutella pancakes taste like banana bread with powdered sugar & Nutella drizzle...ohhhhh, so good!!! Γ°ΕΈΛβΉ

The ONLY reason for two stars are the servers that work here. Truly phenomenal young folks! Pleasant, on the ball, really this review is in no way a reflection on the service. The silverware was dirty, wrapped in the napkin with the paper band on it. The coffee cups are despicable, they need to be bleached then washed in the dish washer. When I first moved to Btown this was my favorite place to go. Now it no longer is. The cooks really need to check the menu and what ingredients go in what. When the menu says an ingredient I expect to see it on my plate..I have no idea what is going on there but I won't be back..

Old-timey environment with great food!

This is a lovely little restaurant in downtown Bloomington. It's located a couple of blocks from the IU Sample Gates. The decor and art are simple but vibrant. Oldies music added some fun; some songs ya just gotta hum along to!!Γ°ΕΈΕ½Β΅ The menu is pretty basic, all American diner fare. Not boring-menu items have a current twist. For example, gluten free and vegan options are available. A customer favorite is the dinner plate sized pancakes. I ordered the veggie omelette. My daughter ordered 1 of everything. 2 OE eggs, toast, fried potatoes, bacon, & biscuits and gravy. We shared a pancake for dessert. She was very hungry! The food was perfectly seasoned and cooked. Service was fast and friendly. I also enjoy that many of the staff are Indaina University students. If you're in a chatty mood, go during a slow hour. Ask your server about school. If they're not busy, you'll have an interesting little chat. Be sure to support higher education with a nice gratuity.

I visit this restaurant almost every time I am in Bloomington. Good food, fun staff.

Love the cinnamon roll pancake and everything else I've tried. Expect to leave with a doggy bag.
Anthony Evans
Some of the food felt rushed but I do understand, since we had a group of 10 or so, but that doesn't mean you should skip corners to make more food. Other than that, it's amazing service and I'm sure if we said something we'd have gotten another plate or something. But we didn't have a lot of time and didn't wanna be rude either. That's not to take away how great this place is when they're fully committed.

This place is absolutely amazing! They are always busy but get you seated fairly quickly every time! You can also get coffee while you wait! They are so hospitable!

Very good food and great value! Got their biscuits and gravy along with the Hoosier scramble and both were excellent. Definitely a spot to go for breakfast with an empty stomach. You will not leave here not feeling full. Their was about a five minute wait and the staff there move quick and efficiently. Worth trying if you haven't already.
Daniel Henning
Awesome breakfast place, can occasionally have a very long wait.
Amber
Very disappointed. I've came here many times but the last few times were all bad. This visit, the food was completely bland. Got strawberry waffles, scrambles eggs, bacon, corn beef hash with two over easy eggs. The only food that was good was the white toast. I didn't know you could mess up scrambled eggs and bacon. The bacon tasted like it was cooked in old burnt oil and the eggs tasted so bland and fake. The service was better than it was before so I'll give that a plus. Other than that, the food was just a hugr disappointment. I'll stick with Cloverleaf and Cracker barrel for breakfast. We will not be coming back to place.

Talk about "Brunch Central"--- this place is overflowing on weekends and in the mornings. The food itself bearly gets a 3, but everyone loved it and the atmosphere is nice. The service can be rather slow on the weekend, but their bennies are tasty.

The Village Deli is is one of my favorite breakfast places in Bloomington. The place is clean, the food is great, and there's a wide variety of options for different dietary restrictions (i.e. gluten free, vegetarian). There are some spaces for larger groups, but most of the larger tables are outside. It's also aa goo place for families as almost all of the food is kid friendly. The service is good, but during the school year it can take a bit to get your food. This isn't a huge inconvenience as it's like that most places in Bloomington. It's also street only parking, so be aware of that. It's one of a handful of breakfast places in Bloomington that I recommend consistently and will continue to do so.

Great food and perfect location near campus! Try the pancakes, theyΓ’β¬β’re amazing!

Highly recommended. Excellent customer service. Food was beyond what I thought it would be. Definitely will come back. Cant say enough how wonderful this place is from the atmosphere to the food
Cory Hawkins
What a pathetic excuse for a restaurant. Frozen potatoes with room temp cheese and an over very hard egg. What a nightmare. The service was slow and not helpful. The waitress literally lost our bill, cleared it with the plates and it took 10 extra minutes to print a new one and pay. Wasnt worth a dime. Dont waste your money here.

Legendary Kirkwood landmark does a brisk business with simple, hearty classic breakfast foods and lunch sandwiches. My kids adore the piled-high whipped cream on the hot cocoas, as well as the hub-cap sized pancakes. If it weren't for the long lines, this would be our Sunday tradition.
Bill Morrison
I'm told by my son that this place has the best breakfast in town (Bloomington)!
