Clifton Cafe is an European-American restaurant in the Clifton neighborhood of Clifton.
“I hadn’t been back since it was just a cafe. I was impressed with so many options on the menu. It feels cozy inside and the staff was friendly and helpful. The food was tasty and had great portions.”
“Patrick was super hospitable and the atmosphere was delightful! Creative drinks and completely custamizable. I had a hot hug in a mug with the Baileys on the side. When it got cool I poured it over ice and got to experience the incredible flavors in 3 different ways.”
“I visited this restaurant last fall, and it was such a great experience. I highly recommend making a reservation before coming because it gets very busy. The coffee was delicious, and they had so many great breakfast options to choose from. The food was amazing, the portions were very generous, and even the creamer size was surprisingly big! Definitely a place worth visiting.”
“Nice little place to stop and grab a crepe for lunch. Took a few minutes for the staff to acknowledge that I was there. I ended up seating myself. The staff warmed up and were attentive, cheery, and pleasant once placed my order. The savory crepe was fine and the latte was pretty looking, but the latte was way way to hot and the crepe was swimming in dressing. Overall a good experience and I would come here again and try a different crepe that isn't so juicy.”
“Two visits - neither impressed me. Perhaps having owned a restaurant myself back in day i notice more than some. All sit down restaurants especially if you are supposed to be higher character than a TGIF should have guests greeted within 60 seconds of sitting to greet them and acknowledge they sat and give them water. Busser should be doing this is waiter is busy. Neither visit did this occur. Second visit waiter was better once waitress started serving us Food was nothing to write home about. French toast first visit was eh from memory. My friend praises the crepes. I had a taste of them. Was good but not OMG amazing. Got chicken salad croissant sandwich second visit. The greens on it i did not like flavor that is personal taste. The salad itself was dry and mayonnaise based. Likes the nuts and cranberries in it. Mac and cheese was ok. Not much cheese. Lemon bar dessert i am not certain it was made from scratch there. Could be from restaurant depot Atmosphere is best bc it is historic old house they did not remodel at all just worked with original lay out of it including leaving the tub plumbing and all in the restroom. Music was playing in some areas that could sort of be heard in the others. Worth a visit to decide for yourself but i would NOT say it’s one of the best cafes in area.”
