An amazing treasure in rural Iowa.
Menu is broad, with a wide selection of common favorites along with a few specialty items served only at the Skillet Cafe. We had the Skillet Plate for breakfast. Peppers and onions were cooked but still crisp, potatoes were also cooked to perfection. Eggs cooked perfectly as ordered (over medium).
Service is excellent. Seated promptly and politely by courteous and helpful staff. Food served while still fresh. Follow up for drinks and other needs was very appropriate (not too little, not too much).
Covid preparedness is A+. Seating is all 6 feet apart. Touch free menus available by scanning QR code at the table on your smart phone. Touch free checkout also available with credit card. Not just good Covid prep, good service. Very smart.
Overall a great reason to visit Mt. Vernon Iowa as often as we can.
Efficient, friendly service. Tasty food - nice to have breakfast option for lunch and appreciated availability of gluten free toast. 😋
I love restaurants like the Skillet! It was small, but big enough to host a large family breakfast! Everything was made beautifully to order! Kind staff! Very clean and bright restaurant!
Such friendly service, reasonable prices, and fantastic food! Cozy little dine in Cafe 🥰
Enjoyed the breakfast, cinnamon roll fresh toast.
Wish the coffee was better.
Service was spot-on.
Great place for a cup of coffee, and and poached eggs.
Great little place for breakfast and lunch! Been there a couple of times and have not been disappointed.
Great food. They gave me heads up that the kitchen was backed up due to short staff. Asked if the wait (20 minutes) was a problem. I said no and thank you. Service and everything else was 5 stars. It's must visit if you are MV.
