Today was our first time eating at Spirit River Cafe. The food was delicious and everyone was super friendly. The menu selection was incredible for such a small place. We will definitely be back.

The service was good the hot beef sandwich was very disappointing it was small compared to other restaurants I've ordered it at but these guys give you a great vegetable in place of what would normally be what I'm used to getting when I order a hot beef sandwich

We ate there recently and loved it. It was warm inside so we sat outside. The service was everything you could ask for. They repeatedly checked on us, and we were never without. The food was delicious. It had so much flavor. Can't wait for the next visit.

I ordered the breakfast combo with steak and eggs. The steak was dry and of poor quality. The biscuit and gravy were the worst— the biscuits were as hard as cardboard. Overall, it was a low-quality meal. However, the waitress was very nice.

I am a white female and they made me feel like I was not white enough. Also they will not accommodate customers who have Had gastric bypass. This is the only restaurant in 2 yrs that has not allowed me to order off the kids or Seniors Menu.

This place has incredible food. Everything we have eaten here has been delicious. My favorites have been the Eggs Benedict and the Chicken Fried Steak. Make sure to get there early to snag a spot to be seated. It is known to draw a large crowd for the quaint spot.

This place is great! They have so many options. I got a garden skillet kind of dish. It had so many veggies and the eggs were cooked perfectly. My partner is vegan and he had a handful of options to choose from. They serve lunch and breakfast all day, so you can easily get something without the eggs and cheese, or you can opt for one of the vegan lunches like the veggie burger. My partner got some sort of yummy looking veggie taco thing. Also, the fries are SO GOOD.
On top of the great food, the staff is also just the absolute nicest. Our beverages never got below halfway before someone was coming by to refill them. We never had to ask for condiments and they even asked if we wanted others like ranch. Super accommodating and helpful.
The inside area is cozy. The restrooms are very clean and nice. They even have an outdoor patio/outdoor seating, so if you have a dog I'm sure you could sit out there. Even if you don't have a dog, it's really pretty and nice!
Oh man and I almost forgot that you can get banana bread, pumpkin bread, biscuits and gravy, and other great things as your side with breakfast. I love when I can have a little treat before my main breakfast!!! So good.
I love this place and will be going out of my way to come back here again.
Also the center that this place is in has a GIANT HORSE at the entrance. Great stop for a photo-op and yummy eats.

I found this place because the first review says best breakfast in the area. I had the Texas Skillet, and I got to have BANANA BREAD AS A SIDE! That was an amazing option!!! The atmosphere was like a happy with a ranch twist, and the staff was super friendly and were there to refill my coffee and ask me if I needed anything without having to flag them down. The prices for everything were very reasonable for the amount of food you get and they offer mamosas to top off your meal. The reason the food score is lower is because of my tritip. When you walk into a ranch style place and they offer tritip in your skillet, you would think of a juicy tender piece of steak to sop up you runny eggs and shared vegetables. The peices of steak I had were the size of small bacon bits and were overcooked and chewy. It was a little disappointing, but the rest of the food was pretty good. I will definitely try to make it back to try one of the huge burritos that walked past me or one of those omelets.

First time here. Food was ok. Nothing remarkable. Definitely over priced. Waitresses were not very friendly. We felt rushed to leave. Waitress was removing condiments off our table even before we were finished with our meals. Which was very unprofessional and rude. Most likely will not return. Big disappointment.

I don’t usually like eating breakfast at any restaurant here in the HD because it’s alway super bland, every menu is the same, and there’s never turkey options for sausage or bacon. I was pleasantly surprised to see turkey bacon, turkey sausage, and plenty of steak options on the menu. I actually had a hard time deciding what to order. Wish I could rate the food higher but it was typical diner food with no seasoning. It’s the options that will bring me back along with their friendly customer service, cozy atmosphere, and mimosas.

Was told "not a long wait" and seated 45 minutes later. Then waited another 25 to order. Drinks tasted off and watered down while being told it was "coke products". The waiter seemed inconvenienced by having to wait on us and had very unfriendly attitude for someone I've never met.she also filled up our cups with other cups which seemed super questionable, especially since we saw her using pitchers for other people. I got chicken fried steak with eggs and it was covered in gravy which if that's your thing more power to you but half the meal was gravy. Nothing else really had a taste to it even after Ketchup, salt and pepper. It's not the cooks fault its the quality of food and they way they are forced to cook it.the little cut up pieces of sausage was just insulting for what is normally cooked into the gravy to give it flavor. No flavor. It was just plain out of a can gravy. So all in all it was an awful way to spend 2 hours and 50 bucks for 2 people. 8 dollars for 2 cokes is crazy. We drank maybe 1 liter of coke between the both of us and it was watered down for 8 bucks. If you go order water or take your own drink.

My husband and I plus our son and his wife recently had breakfast at this cafe. We have eaten here several times before and had always founds our dining experience good. However as we always had in the past split and omelette between each couple as a 3 egg omelette is too much for one person. When we received our bill we discovered that we were charged $3.95 for each extra plate for splitting our meal. It was never told to us there would be an additional charge for sharing our meal. While I understand inflation and prices have risen, an almost $4 dollar charge for an extra plate is totally unreasonable and we will not be going back to the cafe in the future. For two couples sharing each an $15.95 omelette plus drinks it cost us $51.40…..
