ACME Cafe is a masterpiece of vintage Americana, comfort food, and amazing breakfast!!

The theme is carried out very well throughout the establishment with a hint of newness and even coolness tied to the vintage American decor.
There’s even an old gas pump and a desert display.

The service is excellent!! on point on time despite being busy. As I walked up to this place mid morning on the weekday, I was wondering, why is it so busy do people even work when I walked in I knew why. The vibe is upbeat without being loud or busy.

The food is amazing! Absolutely the best ever comfort food, and breakfast!

It was like somebody’s auntie called grandma, and they both started working from scratch as angels played harps and sang!
The food captured the essence of comfort and appeared to be made from scratch. The chicken fried steak was obviously hand pounded and hand, battered the potatoes, cut manually. Biscuit from scratch and to top that off, homemade preserves or jam. Not too sweet not too tart just perfect to allow the flavor of the biscuit to come through.

Avocado toast was a healthy portion and executed brilliantly with the perfectly ripe yet soft and spreadable avocado.

This place is a MUST GO!! even if you have to go out of your way.

You could sit at the bar in a booth or at a table.
There is also outdoor seating when the weather is right.

Parking was plentiful.
Someone else you need to know before going, nothing just go!

I am surprised this place doesn’t have higher ratings. It’s hands down one of the most epic places to eat! I’ve been here 4 times over the past 6 months, and my family still goes on about how tasty the food is. The french toast is out of this world, chicken fried breakfast and chicken sandwich are perfectly cooked with huge portions, a lot their biscuits and gravy is amazing as well. It is a small restaurant so during peak times there can be a wait, which I will gladly wait for perfection lol. ❤️

It was an interesting experience. The atmosphere felt unwelcoming, but more than anything the service was meh. Server gave us our check not even 10 minutes after serving us our food. Mind you they were not busy. The server also forgot to write down a very simple request that we had (Sub pepper gravy for sausage gravy). Not once did our server check in to see if we needed anything, not even water. They just seemed completely uninterested. We just felt like we didn’t belong. Could be that my partner and I are people of color.
But I will say the food was great, and the strawberry margarita was good as well. And it is a cute spot.

I came here with my friend for breakfast and when we came in we immediately were sat at the bar and watching them make everything made my mouth water. Our waitress Kat was awesome. Very sweet lady, took very good care of us!! Once we ordered we got our food very quickly even tho the place was packed and the cooks were doing what seemed like a million things at once. Not to mention my food was amazing I got the classic French toast with a side of bacon. 10/10!!! The mimosas are good as well and cheaper than any other place I’ve been!! I’m very impressed with this place! The service(from everyone) and the food and the atmosphere!!! Marcus the cook also gave samples of all the gravies to my friend I was with which was awesome of him!

Wish I’d found this gem sooner. You can absolutely taste the love in the food. The scratch biscuits, gravies, jam and sauces are delicious. I’ll be making the drive from Oregon City down here as often as I can. The chicken fried chicken is a must try along with a biscuit. Best breakfast I’ve been to in a while and we go out all over alot. Don’t sleep on this spot!!!

What a wonderful place to socialize and eat some delicious food. The place was slammed, but you would not have known it. The service was fantastic. One of those places where there are many people working and your coffee and water were constantly topped off without feeling like someone is in your space. Our order was taken quickly, and the food was served hot. My husband said it was the best Mac salad he’d ever had. They gave him some to take home. Loved talking to our waitress. I recommend stopping here. There might be a line, but you get coffee while waiting, and it’s a short turnaround.

I’ve wanted to eat here for several years. I live a quarter mile away and after finally going for my favorite breakfast meal, country fried steak (to-go for medical reasons), all I can say is I am disappointed in myself for not going sooner!

This place is perfect. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the staff friendly and courteous, and the food.. OMG.. . My country fried steak was tender and flavorful; the breading crispy but not at all overcooked, with a perfect balance of herbs. The country gravy was peppery and had the flavor profile all sausage gravy lovers crave.

My over medium eggs were delicious, whites cooked perfectly with yolks that burst and hit my taste buds with an explosion of flavor. The potatoes were crispy and complimented by fried onions. This was delicious but also the only thing I might add a little more seasoning to in future. Maybe some cajun spices?

The biscuits.. (which one thing I’ve come to love in the US has been biscuits and gravy, and I bought an extra side of sausage gravy for just that), I buttered them lightly before smothering in the gravy, were soft and fluffy; but with a masterfully cooked firm crust with that little crisp to it that adds some contrast to the texture of each bite.

I know this is excessively long, but I just want to add it’s because I was genuinely just incredibly happy with the service, the quality of the food, and my overall experience. I can’t wait to come and try so much more of the menu!

Food arrived properly packaged and still warm. Loco moco portion was big and with good tasting gravy and macaroni salad. The shrimp Benedict had three plump crunchy shrimps for each English muffin slice, came with “tartar tasting” sauce on the side and country potatoes. A big delicious cinnamon roll was substituted when they were out of bread pudding. Very satisfied with Acme Cafe, will definitely order again.

The wait here was a bit long, but to be fair, we requested to sit at a booth. The food was very good. I ordered the steak and eggs, it came with country fried potatoes, and everything was seasoned very well. Once we placed our order, the food did come fast. My boyfriend had a country fried chicken with a biscuit, and I had sour dough with my meal, both looked to be fresh and made there. Mine didn’t quite taste like sour dough, but it was still very good bread. They both came with what seemed to be boysenberry preserves. Honestly, the toast with preserves tasted like a dessert!

Breakfast was amazing and service was quick and efficient. They were also very kind. My sasage omlett was really good and loved the hash browns. Hubby had the chicken fried steak and said it was delicious. Definitely would go here again.
