3rd St Cafe

I love this old style cafe in the heart of Sidney! We had brunch and the Eggs Benny were done to perfection! Good sized portions of fried potatoes as well. The service was excellent! Only draw back is the small area for the cafe. They don’t take reservations so it’s first come, first serve! But then again, that’s the beauty of this place. You might have to wait for a table, but it’s worth it! Outside tables available in the summer!

This place seems packed like a local favorite but for a breakfast joint, it's okay. My meal was sparse on the capers and the potato hash tastes somewhat bland but perhaps the flavoring is catered to their elder demographic which seems to be the majority of their clientele. The plating of the meal looks as if it's been simply tossed on to the dish. Perhaps I'm spoiled for eating at other breakfast joints that serve similar for better value. The owner joked I hated the dished and asked if I wanted seconds? 🤣 Trust me, if I hated something, I wouldn't touch the meal. Just I'm used to most breakfast joints pile on ingredients with larger portions for the same price so that's why the meal was devoured in under 3 minutes. Service is somewhat touch and go but it's because the staff can barely keep up with the volume. Hooray for broken 🍭 💔 For a quick eat and go, it's okay. Can't quite say it has the wow factor to eat here on a regular basis but the restaurant seems to have an interesting Peninsula vibe going on so worth coming for the experience.

A great local spot for breakfast/brunch, right in the middle of downtown. A ma & pa atmosphere, which I always enjoy and yummy food, helpful staff. We were there at the height of morning rush, though ended up getting a table fairly quickly. Our food took a bit longer to arrive, though we knew they were packed. Everyone enjoyed their meal and coffees; we had the veggie benny (1egg and 2 egg) and a veggie omelet. I'd come back again!
