Driving past St Joseph and saw all the good reviews at this place so we decided to have lunch there. Simple home style Cafe and it was pretty good. I like the small simple menu and they have different specials everyday. Very good prices too.
I ordered the Taco Burger with fries and it was really good. Everything tasted nice and fresh and good quality food. I like the crinkle fries. Wife ordered the “special” which was ham and bean soup and it was above average good. Plus she got three small sides with it and all three were good (deviled eggs, macaroni salad and potato salads). My daughter ordered the Philly cheese steak sandwich and it looked and tasted very good.
We got there at 1:35pm and they close at 2pm. They were very nice and had no problem seating us with less than half hour of closing. The service was great and the waitress was very friendly. I highly recommend this place.

We came here for an early morning breakfast, like 6:30am, before much was open. It is a small diner feel and there was already a bunch of people in there. The food was pretty good especially for the price. The coffee was delicious and the servers there were friendly, helpful and just nice to be around.

Service was good, food wasn’t our favorite though, a little canned and bland. Pies sell out early, deviled eggs are popular but sweet, sausage gravy and white gravy had little flavor. Small town feeling restaurant that seems to have lots of friendly locals and I noticed they’ve won several local awards (see picture). Good coffee creamer options. Not a lot of seating.

My sister and I were looking for an old fashioned restaurant to eat a good home cooked breakfast meal and we found it at Betty’s Cafe. Atmosphere and employees were inviting and food was outstanding! Too much to eat. Will definitely be back! Worth the hour drive for me.

Betty’s Cafe is a shining example of how a smaller family owned restaurant can not only survive, but also thrive. That’s not a status that is easily earned in today’s seemingly unstable economy, and with the potential ripple effects of post Covid, that have taken the breath and life out of countless small businesses, not to mention a fair amount of larger well known entities. One visit to this little down home Eatery will speak for itself. The service is usually very prompt, and flavored with a friendly smile. All of their culinary offerings are prepared and served with a genuine effort and desire to give the customer an honest home style meal that is delicious, and looks like it came straight from your mom’s or grandma’s kitchen. The prices are a decent enough value, that won’t break the bank. They have figured out the secret, which isn’t really a secret, and that is to treat folks like family and friends, and to give them a plate of honest home style goodness, that echos the feeling and flavor of home. This cozy and quaint little Cafe has been serving up tasty comfort for now on 36 years, and they show no signs of slowing down. A big YUMS UP for Betty’s Cafe, destined to be a Saint Joseph landmark and legend.
