After calling one month in advance to arrange lunch for a group of 15, we arrived today and no one but the owner was expecting us. After waiting 30 minutes to get our drinks it was another 20 minutes before a different waitress took our food order. When the food finally arrived it was average at best. My burger was... More

Cafe 22 is one of those unexpected restaurants out in the middle of the highway that turns out to be a real find. The decor puts you in the 50's diner mode and has the added bonus of outside seating in the summer. Great breakfasts with the usual plus gravy! Biscuits and gravy, hashbrowns and gravy, gravy where ever you... More

We went as a family with two young kids to have dinner. We were the only people in the restaurant. Everything seemed to be going fine until just before our dinner came out. My husband is in law enforcement and our ears perked up when we heard the cooks in the back, talking loud enough for us to hear them,... More

This is sort of a 50's style restaurant along the highway to Dallas, Oregon. In the summer they have wonderful shortcakes and ice cream, along with a fruit/vegetable market. We eat there on a regular basis. Love their hamburgers.

We were staying in the RV resort close by and decided to try the cafe for an early dinner after reading other tripadvisor reviews. We arrived around 2:00 and found out the dinner menu wasn't available until 3:00. To kill time we decided to order milkshakes and onion rings since we wanted the dinner shrimp and pasta. The shakes were... More

We were heading back from a trip to the beach and were getting hungry. The normal fast food places were sounding appetizing. What a great restaurant to find in West Salem. The food was excellent, service great and fun atmosphere. We can't believe we hadn't stopped there before. There were also tons of people stopping in at the fruitstand next... More
