The Courier Cafe

This place is AMAZING for breakfast/brunch. We received phenomenal service from the entire team. Aziyiaha greeted us warmly and seated us immediately in a beautiful and comfy booth, and Veronica made sure our waters were constantly filled and our table was clean. Holly walked us through the menu and told us her favorites. She recommended the Rancheros Rarebit, a burrito with scrambled eggs, and she advised we add jalapeño and bacon. One bite and my hubs said, “This should be on the menu.” It was SOLID. We split an order of the biscuits and gravy, which was also delicious. I used the leftover gravy on my burrito; along with a healthy dose of Cholula, this was an epic breakfast. Delicious from start to finish, adorable atmosphere, but the staff is what set this place over the top. Don’t miss The Courier Café!

This place is sort of like a diner but more upscale. We usually order their milkshakes, the salad bar, and the pesto sandwich. All of those are terrific! My friends have ordered other things and I have heard no complaints. I love the dark wood in the place and the old-time decorations. The prices are pretty reasonable and the service good.

A gem in Urbana-Champaign Illinois. The last Courier newspaper delivered in 1979, but the Cafe carries the name well. The Beef Stack with Blue Cheese is excellent. Hand-made malts and Green Rivers take you back
