Old Town Cafe is a very nice little brunch place in the town of Joseph in Wallowa County, Oregon. The restaurant is open since 7am in the morning and closes at 2pm. It offers all day breakfast to customers and customers can also choose to do take out instead of dine in. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating area. in fact, there are more outdoor seats than indoor seats.
We visited this place around 8:30am in the morning and there were already so many people at the restaurant. We walked in into the restaurant and the waitress told us we could just find a seat ourselves when there is a table available. So we did and sat down, and the waitress brought us the menu. The menu offers similar brunch selections that other brunch restaurants offer. One good things is that we could choose to have the full serving or half serving. This time, we decided to order a full serving of scramble egg with link sausages, half serving of cranberry crepe and French toast.
Scramble egg with link sausages is also served with house made potato. The potato is cooked perfectly with crispiness and sweet. The sausage is quite chewy as well. The French Toast is very crispy. In our past experience, we always thought that French toasts are softer with sweetness. The restaurant provided maple syrup to be used on French toast to sweeten it. The cranberry crepe is our favorite dish here. Inside the crepe, there is custard creme which blend very well with sour cranberry sauce.
The only down side here is that the outdoor seating area had quite a lot of flies flying around and were quite annoying. It would have been better if there were not that many flies around.
Overall, the service at the restaurant is quite good and we were served as fast as they could. They did inform us that the serving of food could take longer than usual due to the number of take out that they need to serve first. We strongly recommend this place if you visit Wallowa region. This is one of the better brunch places that we have been to.
