Great place offering a surprisingly wide array of food. The variety of Schnitzel options was a treat.
Prices are on par with the area, so higher than not. Still, the food was good and the antique decor was delightful.

This place has the most amazing shrimp pasta I’ve ever had! I will come back here time and time again. The waitress was sweet and friendly and extremely helpful! If you’re ever here request Kate! If you love shrimp pasta this is one of the best places to go!! Shrimp fest is so amazing!

We had an exceptional dining experience at Al’s Cafe from the appetizer (Crab Cakes), dinner, and dessert. Not only were the entrees properly prepared and delicious, they were presented wonderfully.

Honestly, don’t bother if you’re looking for basic service. We drove an hour all the way from Rockford specifically for malts, only to be told they ‘wouldn’t make them’ because they had ‘a lot going on’ for Valentine’s Day.
I’m sorry, but isn’t that the point of being a cafe? If you can’t handle making a drink on your menu because you’re busy, don’t open your doors. Super disappointing to waste two hours of driving for a place that picks and chooses when they feel like doing their job. Definitely won’t be back.

MEOWING!
AL’s is a great spot to get a bite to eat! The burgers and shake are a match made in heaven 🙂 had the Swiss mushroom burger and the blue cheese one also! The fries are perfect to dip in the shake also 😉 I will forsure be back to try it again in the summer

We got lucky enough to be seated, thank’s to Jennifer! The place was semi empty but I believe you should make a reservation, because the host, he was almost gonna turn us away. We were just lucky Jennifer said there was room for us. YAY, we chose to sit upstairs. Lovely views of downtown Elgin, gorgeous building. Seriously read the history on the drink menu. The place is lovely. The food had great presentation. The crab cakes were wow, we had crab cakes at like Ditka’s and here, they serve you with bruschetta on the side. PLUS amazing bread. It was a lot for crab cakes. Then they give you more delicious bread. Everything was really good. I only wish they had Tito’s vodka as an option, they only serve Absolut. BUT hey I am not gonna complain. I really want to come back & try some of the ice cream. Thank you Jennifer, you were an amazing host.

If you’re looking for the perfect lunch or dinner spot, you’re in luck… you’ve found it!
Al’s is simply exquisite no matter what you try (naturally we had to try a few things). The soda fountain is a rare delicacy now a days and the opportunity could not be passed up to have a clean and refreshing cherry coke!
Our lunch (half a sandwich and soup) was the perfect portion size and packed full of meat and flavor!
The ice cream was amazing and left us feeling a little too full, so make sure you save room!
I say this a lot, but it couldn’t be more true of Al’s… if you haven’t tried this hidden gem, you are TRULY missing out on a fantastic dining experience!

Very disappointed and definitely won’t be back. Over $13 for the thinnest, smallest, BLT I’ve ever seen. The bacon looked like those tiny microwavable pieces too. Not worth the money.

The atmosphere and service was the perfect accompaniment to the outstanding food. The carrot bisque soup was silky smooth with the grilled bread warm and toasted. The schnitzel and spaetzle was the best I have ever had and my waitress tied the experience all together perfectly.
Cannot say enough good about this little gem. My compliments to the chef as they achieved a mastery of the food they prepared ❤️
