The food was okay. They burned my wifes hash. I mean it was black. So when they replaced it they brought back a very large home made cinamon roll. It was the best roll I have ever had. The staff was very good at making the kitchens mistake right.

We stopped in for lunch April 22, and really wished we had stopped elsewhere. I had the shrimp melt which was pretty much tasteless. My daughter had the seafood platter and was disappointed with that. There was a lot of food, but the fish tasted like it was frozen and was dry. The clam strips were rubbery and the calamari... More

A friend who lives in Bandon recommended the Minute Cafe as the best place in town for breakfast, so we took her advice. We got there about 10:30 am and it was obvious that it was extremely popular. The place was packed and we had a 5-10 min. wait for a table. I ordered an omelet, which came with hashed... More

This place makes their own clam chowder and having tried several clam chowders up and down the coast, this was my favorite. It's rich and creamy and delicious!

We ate here during spring break (tourist time) and we got a table fairly quick but did not get service for a bit. The food was really good and I recommend the clam chowder. The seating situation was not that great. It got pretty crowded and you are seated right next to other people. It also seemed like they were... More

I took my dad for dinner at the Minute and really wish I'd stuck to just eating breakfast there. It is affordable, but that means you're not getting the best quality...at all. The vegetable soup was last night's dinner veggies with watered down beef broth. It was disgusting. The salad bar didn't look too fresh either. Steak was not prepared... More

We were actually looking for the bakery to eat at, but it was closed, possibly because it was a holiday-Presidents Day. So we ended up at the packed Minute cafe. Service was only a little slow for us, the folks we were seated next to said they waited "an hour" for their food. The price was right, and food tasty,... More

We really enjoy the Minute Cafe for breakfast when we're in Bandon. They offer good quality food at a fair price. The waitresses are always friendly and helpful and the place is family friendly. We'll be back!

We were there on a Sunday morning and they were extremely busy (always a good sign at a restaurant). The service was a little slow, I can only assume because the restaurant was so busy. Breakfast was good, the menu has a lot of choices (my husband had chicken fried steak and eggs and I had pancakes) and the portions... More
