Well definitely be back! All the diner classics made to perfection! Child friendly and reasonable prices. Omelette was moist and the flavorful. Coffee hot and strong (how I like it!).

My wife went to Lydia's Cafe for breakfast after our get away weekend and it was delicious! Small place so you get the home-cooked meal and our breakfast was great. I had the Loco Moco special with breakfast rice, ham, bacon, red peppers and onions topped with sausage gravy and over medium eggs. My wife had the Rockford omelet and it was cooked perfectly! We are definitely going back the next time we are in the area!!

This place is a gem! Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, you'd never know it was there. We have visited 3 times since stumbling across it and have not been disappointed. The service is fantastic, the food is outstanding and the atmosphere quite pleasant. Something I haven't seen often, they have local artists works on the walls and they are for sale. I was hesitant to share as I'd like to keep this place a secret! Next time you are looking for an upscale breakfast/lunch experience stop by Lydia's!

Stopped here on the way back up north from Chicago. The portions here are very generous, and all menu items are very reasonably priced. Servers were extremely friendly and accommodated all of our substitutions. Would highly recommend!

People are great. Food has 0 taste. Gave the place 4 try's since I live around the corner and Just been disappointed each time. Also we are always missing little extra sides we order ??
Lydia's Cafe is a quaint little out of the Way Cafe that deserves high praise. The food was amazing, the staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was clean and inviting. Right now they have it decorated so cute for Valentine's Day each table even has fresh flowers on it. I had a Reuben for lunch and it was by far the best I've ever had. I'll be back for sure!

Delicious cafe--I believe I had a breakfast dish that was divine (two years ago, sadly!). They seemed to have some nice local artwork adorning the walls. Hope to visit again soon.
