Love this place! We had not been in quite a while but it did not disappoint. Friendly staff, great service and food. Everything we ordered was good. It was my husbands birthday and they brought him a surprise dessert. Nice variety of food choices. I would recommend it to anyone.

Decent pub food with some good specials, too. It was a Tuesday night – they had live music performed by local musicians.

Nice place to eat. The food was good. The server was by herself (with occasional help from the kitchen staff), so things were a little behind. But she was great at keeping everything in line. Our order was correct, and it was good. The kindergartener loved her grilled cheese and chips. I had the club sandwich. Very tasty.

We love going to Outta the Way Cafe. Great service, a large variety of food, and a home town atmosphere. I enjoy the ham and cheese club sandwich. It normally comes with American cheese but they will substitute that for cheddar if you ask. The island applesauce is to die for. It is chunky applesauce with cinnamon sugar in it. Kind of like pie filling.

Rude and racist staff. I am only giving it 4 stars because I did have a few servers actually behave better. The bartenders are a mess. Today I got confronted by a cook or someone from the staff after I dealt with 2 rude customers. I got confronted for simply defending myself verbally. I was never was shaken but the fact he even tried. It’s not my first round coming here and feeling a racist energy in the air.

Great selection of food and the service was great. My fiance has allergies to certian seasonings and they were able to make her a wonderful pork chop. We will definitely be back.

Saturday night the place was hopping when we left. Got there about 6:15 pm and had our pick of tables. By the time we left the place was full – a live band was coming in -probably around 8 pm. Service was great. Will be back to try the food again.
