I’ve seen articles about this cafe and being hungry and at the building, I thought I would check this cafe out. I had the French Dip with chips to go. That was one of the best French Dip sandwiches I have ever had! The gravy was thick and not runny. I think the chips are made in house.

Nice little cafe. Order at the counter. Limited sweets – cookies, PB pie, sad looking Danish. I don’t like that breakfast ends at 11 but the atmosphere is really nice and the food was hot and good. Restrooms are clean and accessible.

Used to really enjoy eating here but over the past few weeks the quality of their food has decreased drastically. I have been a loyal customer for months spending $13+ for lunch every time but I refuse to spend any more of my money here as the quality is just not there. The fries taste like they’re from McDonalds (they used to be fresh and seasoned) and the produce is just gross. The avocado used on my club was brown, I would’ve rather it be left off because it ruined the sandwich. I emailed with my concerns, including pictures and I got no response. I will never recommend this place to anyone. Spend your money elsewhere!

If u are a Monte Cristo lover pass this on by. I thought the Monte breakfast sandwich would be a nice change. Reality hit when I was served. It is a pre-made French toast with cheap tasting ham and a over fried egg. The raspberry JAM they called compote. I could only eat half feeling I wasted my 18 dollars with every bite.

My mom and dad took my daughter and I out for breakfast for my birthday. I’ve been looking to try different places instead of going to the same old same old and this place had a quirky name and a varied menu. As you can see from the outdoor shot, the staircase is what is known as a welcome staircase which is a southern architectural design feature meant to welcome travelers coming from anywhere. I had to take a picture of the entryway which features a rabbit who greets you at the door. The industrial design of the interior harkens back to when this was the functioning Waumbec Mill. The old wood has a new life as the beautiful golden oak interior which is warm and homey. My daughter and I both got the California breakfast sandwich, my mom got the Denver omelet and my dad got The Waterworks. The staff is very friendly and even gave us a comedy show while we were waiting for our food. It is a very friendly, welcoming, down to earth, family environment which I would highly recommend. The food was delicious, hot, and filling. My daughter and I ended up taking home half of our sandwiches to enjoy later. Do yourself a favor and check this place out, but be mindful, they are only open for breakfast and lunch. There is also a handicapped entrance on the side as the entry to the actual Cafe is around the back with plenty of parking.

The cafe is very cute and I will say I enjoyed my meal. What was disappointing was I order salmon bowl for takeout only to find no salmon when I went out to eat. I did have to go back and the staff immediately corrected their mistake but still surprised this could have been missed by the staff. Highly recommend checking your order before leaving the restaurant.

At a time when many local restaurants are going downhill, Waterworks Cafe keeps cranking the standards upwards. Visit and experience it for yourself.
