    We had a very pleasant experience. The menu, though somewhat limited, included several vegan choices. The portions were large and tasty and Katie provided excellent service. The prices were reasonable, except that the dessert we ordered was too pricey. We'll definitely be going back.

    What a great experience! The service was quick and friendly with multiple check points throughout the evening. The food came out relatively fast and it was fresh. Overall a great experience! Would love to see a kids menu in the future to cater to the younger clientele.

    There wasn’t the live music we came for, but dinner was fantastic (smash burger and shrimp and grits). The waitress was really good, very sweet, was everyone there… as always. This restaurant is pure Love.

    We had such a nice time there!! We came bc our friends band was playing -but the ambience , service and food will bring us back!!! The decor is quirky and fun, live all the colors and art. Our server (sorry I forget her name) was so sweet. It was a busy night but we never felt ignored. The food-wow!! I had the big pig -delicious!! My friends had other items, and everyone enjoyed. We will be back! Thank you!

    We attended last evening to support a musician friend. We ordered at 8pm. At 9:10pm I tracked down the server. It's a small venue, but only one server. At 9:10 I told her to cancel my food. At 9:20 the owner/"chef" comes out with my food. "I 'm sorry, we had a big crowd". I said NO,. cancelled it. It's HIS problem to fix waiting 70 min for food. HIRE STAFF. After the night was over at 10pm, he confronted me outside. "Never come back to my restaurant" He never gave me the opportunity to speak. He turned on his heels and walked away.

    I only have 800 words to reply to you and could never say what needs to be said in this short window. You berated me and my server, you intentionally tripped my server not once but twice. You sir, are a nasty individual and I am not ashamed to tell you this in a public forum. I attempted to do everything in my power to appease the situation but you vehemently did not allow me to do so. The kind woman that you were with saturday night saw your nastiness and asked you to stop, your friend... the musician that played that night, asked you to stop. But you did not. Every guest in the dining room saturday night apologized to me, for your terrible behavior and most of them didnt even know you. Your behavior was appalling and as you stated, you are not welcome back at the Bellefonte Cafe. David
