This place was buzzing when we walked in which made a great atmosphere. We were served promptly and ordered the French Toast and Monte Christo. I didn't really understand the cinnamon-cheese-ham combo with the Monte Christo but it was still good - I would definitely order something else if I was to come back though. The quality of the food was great and service was really nice. Now I want pancakes
Had breakfast twice at this local hangout. Good portions and pretty standard American breakfast fare. The mall it is in makes it very difficult to find this restaurant.
My wife and I sat down for a wonderful breakfast. The atmosphere was quiet and family friendly. Our hostess was polite and provided excellent customer service. Our food was served in a timely fashion and exactly as ordered. I would recommend this restaurant to any young couple or family and will definitely return
We were traveling through Indiana and ventured off the freeway for breakfast. The place was soooo worth it. Great home cooked food, great service and lower prices that the chains on the freeway. Did I mention how good the food was?
Easily the best breakfast place in Lafayette. The service is fantastic, the food is delicious, and Molly knows how to make everyone smile. I have been there many times now and have passed on my recommendation to family members to eat there as well. I like to consider the downtowner the hidden gem of Lafayette.
We went looking for a new, non-chain breakfast place & we found it! Quaint, friendly staff, couldn't ask for more! Reasonably priced...we'll definitely be back!
First time. It is a very nice and clean diner. I had the chicken fried steak breakfast and it was very good. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a new breakfast spot.
Our absolutely fav bfast place! Molly always makes u feel like part of the family, plus the food & prices cannot b beat!
It was a fantastic experience!!!!! A perfect breakfast joint. We loved the food. The coffee was so good. Going back soon.
Great place for breakfast food. We had the Chopped steak breakfast (which is basically a hamburger patty), and the kid's chicken tender basket.
I've also had the Lumberjack and the Mexican Omelette - both are great, and the Lumberjack is plenty of food.
Prices are good - it's hard to spend a lot here, and the coffee refills keep coming when you need that energy.
The server was impressively flexible and understanding of my fitness diet and offered some good substitutions without me even saying anything.
Great food, great prices, and excellent service by the staff. Our waitress made a recommendation on a sandwich, I went with it, and man was it delicious! I'll definitely be back again!
This was our first visit to the Downtowner. Our waitress was only on her second day. It's seat yourself so we went right in and pick our seats. We were greeted almost instantly. Took our orders and brouht drinks immediately the food came quickly and was delicious. Big portions for the price definitely worth it. We got biscuits and gravy sausage, bacon, sausage, pancake, toast and eggs. Everything was superb! We will definitely be back to The Downtowner! Service, food and quality was excellent!
Meet for breakfast with friends...service was awesome as there were approximately 12 people in our group...food was very good!
Forgot how good this place is. I haven't ate here since my grandpa passed away. We had eaten there maybe once a month. It's been 4 yrs.. still great service.
I had been to the Downtowner for the first time years ago, but hadn't reviewed it. Today, I decided to stop by and see if the food was as good today as it was the last time I stopped in for breakfast. I had the two sweet cream pancakes and link sausage with coffee. I thoroughly enjoyed the pancakes, which had a dense consistency and lightly sweet flavor. I also found the sausage links to be good and noticed that they were served in a casing. The coffee wasn't anything special and was so hot that I couldn't drink much of it until I was nearly done with my food. Overall, not a bad breakfast with fairly quick service. If you do go and don't want to sit at the bar, prepare to wait. Tables here are at a premium.
