    I had reservations and we waited to be seated. There were about 10 people in the restaurant. Then we waited 20 minutes before an employee came by. I told him we've been waiting 20mins. He said he'd tell our waitress. Then at 30mins our waitress took our order. Then food came. Wrong salad. She came back 5 mins later with right coleslaw. We Then waited forever for her to come back to ask if we wanted anything else. I Then told her it was my birthday. She asked what cake I'd like. I gave her my order and told her to make it to go. We finally got the bill and left. I've been going there ever since it opened. The worst service ever.

    Copper Cafe is a tradition whenever I’m in the area. The food is always delicious and the portions are generous. They have the best biscuits outside of the south. The food continues to impress, but the service wasn’t what we’ve had in the past. I felt like I was an inconvenience, not a paying customer. Definitely not as friendly as this place is known for. Maybe it’s because it was full?

    Best food, best service, best cakes ever!! Worth the almost 6 hour drive just to go to the cafe and stay in one of the unique rooms for the night!! Have yet to find a better restaurant or bakery any other place and we travel a lot. Wish it was closer to have our birthdays and other special occasions here.

    We are so grateful for the wonderful time we had at the Madonna Café after my son‘s graduation from Cal Poly. You were more than gracious in adding people and setting up for our party ahead of time and serving as well with great food. I especially think the manager, Jay, who was very accommodating And helped a lot in our arrangements we will be back thank you so much
