Food was absolutely top tier. Service was great, and the views of the lake and hummingbirds really adds to the ambiance. Don’t forget to ask about what type of sausage servers like, they might give you an option that’s not on the menu and it’s fantastic. German pancakes are great, and corned beef hash is as it should be.

Pricey but a solid breakfast and an amazing view. It was a nice spot to enjoy the area and grab some nourishment. $4 ice tea and I asked for a to go cup and it would have been a dollar for that…made me wonder if the government owns the cafe?

Inside and outside seating. Dog friendly. Great staff. Beautiful views. Super breakfast. Try the German pancakes. Be patient when it is busy – it is worth the wait.

DO NOT EAT HERE! This was hands down one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had. It took almost 50 minutes to get our food even though they were not that busy. The sever ignored us. We thought the only saving grace would be our appetizer getting to us as we waited FOREVER for our food but it actually came out after our meals came to the table. We had to flag a different server to ask about our appetizer and our food, we heard her tell our server about talking to us, but we didn’t see him for another 15 minutes when our food was done. He didn’t really apologize to us about the long wait and tried to convince us appetizers come after the meal comes to the table because that’s the order the kitchen receives it. Do yourself a favor and never eat here because you’ll probably regret it.

Lynx Lake Cafe is consistently a great experience. The dining room overlooks the lake where you may see an eagle perched or in flight and the dining room windows are lined with hummingbird feeders….. there is no shortage of hummingbird. I always go for the Fish Fry and I have never been disappointed with the quality of their food and service.

We had a wonderful experience! Our server, Lynnee was friendly and efficient and very helpful with suggestions. We all had different versions of schnitzel and it was the best dinner we’ve had so far. Met the chef’s (father and son) and complimented them on our fine dinner. The leftovers the following day were delicious as well.

We drove from midtown in Phoenix to have breakfast before our kayaking adventure. We showed up it was a busy day with an hour wait! I put my name down with Stephanie for a party of 3. It was about an hour wait but the energy was awesome and Stephanie made it fun. We finally got seated but it was the lunch menu. The food was awesome and will definitely be back for breakfast. There is a small parking lot so come early.
