The brunch on the weekends is the best. My husband also loves their cream of crab soup.

The food and service were great. I've had a bit of a time trying to get here though. The hours are a bit strange but it was worth it!

Nice place to have a dinner! Tasty and healthy food. But when we arrived, all soups were already gone. Atmosphere in the building is great - feels like historic dinner

Beautiful restaurant located in a historic dover home. Had the ricotta pancakes and mimosa. Loved sitting outside on the porch and taking in the old architecture. Great service and great food!

My wife and I enjoyed our dinner sitting outside on the porch. The food was great and the price was right. We also had a great waitress!!

Thanks to Yelp found this delightful restaurant in Dover, DE. Lovely atmosphere with friendly and helpful staff. I ordered the Cobb Salad with the house balsamic vinaigrette dressing and my husband had the Turkey Club sandwich. Wow! Both were so good. Trust me we will be back.

Governors Cafe was very nice and had a B&B feel to it. Grounds were very nice and well kept garden area. Initially it seemed to lack diversity and did not seem welcoming but the staff erased that feeling immediately. I was with my husband on vacation and we enjoyed the food and our waitress was awesome! The atmosphere was comfortable but the group eating inside the same room were hitting the wine a little hard and being loud. Otherwise would have been a very pleasant brunch date.

Very nice atmosphere. The food tasted fresh and delicious. Seemed like they were understaffed but this only minorly hindered our experience. I recommend this place.

The atmosphere was beautiful, the food was delicious, the waitstaff was friendly. However, the lady running the events, I assume the manager was rude, had no people skills and lacked customer service skills.

Love this place... The food, the staff, the beautiful front porch!
I have always enjoyed the food here. Service has been good but slow. I have been here three times in the last week; service is much better than before. I am excited that they will be renovating the kitchen then will open up with a new name. I live sitting outside; the building is lovely. I also firmly believe in supporting a local business!!

Location is nice, outside seating is pretty awesome. For you guys that still smoke they have outdoor seating where you can smoke. Very attentive wait staff. Was a little chilly the day we went and we asked for the outdoor heater to be turned on and they did it pretty quickly. Food was really good! All around a nice place to eat.
