Great gem of a restaurant. The Turkey bacon wrap was plentiful and tasty. The Turkey Ruben was gooey and good. The best part was the homemade potato chips - they were real and they were spectacular!

Really great food, atmosphere and service. If I’m back in the area I’d definitely go back.
I had the western omelette, and it was terrific. My daughter had the loaded hashbrowns, and she loved it.
It’s a really small place so it fills up quick. Be sure to get there early if you can.

Very cozy area for brunch or lunch. Get there early because spots fill up fast, there is not a lot of seating inside, but wait times are not too bad.
Come hungry!!! Big and copious portions, you really get your money's worth!

We drove for an hour and waited 30 minutes to brunch here. Absolutely worth it! Food is delicious, the atmosphere is comfortable and friendly. Staff was attentive to our needs, which was especially helpful with having my infant son. Great restaurant!

This was a morning breakfast stop. Service was great, and the food was good.
The best thing about this place is it was open and very friendly service.
If I had to bet, it is family owned.
When leaving your water front stay overs, it will be hard to find a place to eat early in the morning.
It's a "Dimond in the Rough" in this area.

Have dined here multiple times while on vacation and will keep going back. Great outdoor patio on nice weather days. Service is always great and food is excellent with huge portions at reasonable prices. The staff went above and beyond a week ago when we accidentally left a backpack behind. Even though they were closed the next two days they arranged to get it back to us on their day off. They were super gracious and kind. Highly recommend this place. And if there’s a wait just play bags/Corn-hole in the yard while you wait!

The food was great. Just short of exceptional but it's not supposed to be a 5-star experience. For a Cafe it was awesome and my asparagus-bacon omelet was both good and unique enough I won't soon forget it.

Got a delicious omelette here during me and my girlfriends five year anniversary trip during the weekend of Feb 17, 2023. Would absolutely recommend, and will be back in the future! Reasonably priced and good service.

For breakfast in the Elberta area, this little spot was spot on!
Both indoor and outdoor seating options.
Staff follows current COVID standards.
Menu has all the standard breakfast items you want and the coffees hot!
Family of 3 full breakfast plus drinks was only 28.00!!!!
Prices are awesome and portions are filling!
Grab yourself a deluxe breakfast burrito or that early bird special!

Lighthouse Cafe stands out to us for having very good and consistent service and consistently great food at a good price. We drive from Traverse City and have been many times on a Saturday or Sunday - usually in early afternoon.

Good breakfast. Staff very friendly and kept the coffee coming. Great early bird special and prices overall. Hash browns not as crispy as I like, but I'm pretty picky. Will definitely be coming back!

Delicious!!! We stopped in for brunch after a morning in the woods. Quaint little spot, waitress was really sweet and kept my coffee full!! We both had the Farmers omelet.
