This was our first trip to Crouse Cafe. After a short wait to be seated for a Sunday noon meal, we were greeted by a friendly waitress who explained our dining options. A couple in our party had the chicken dinner special (ham balls were the other special but were already sold out). One of the other two people went with a Reuben sandwich and the other went with one of the many breakfast options on the menu, a generous plate of French Toast. Everyone in our party enjoyed their food and the gracious service. We will definitely return to the Crouse Cafe to try some of the other food choices. Based on today's experience, get there early for Sunday lunch to make sure all of the specials and the wonderful looking pie are still available.

This family style restaurant has been my absolute favorite place to eat now for 15+ years. In all the times I've been there not once have they messed up my food AT ALL. Not even a missing straw. The food is always served fresh and hot so I definitely know what to expect when I walk in those doors. The staff has always been amazing, super friendly, willing to make you and your family laugh and feel comfortable there & help out with whatever they can. I could probably keep going with all the amazing things about this place. There's something for everyone in the family. Highly recommend this place to anyone who has never been!

Crouse Cafe in Indianola. This place was VERY clean. They recently had an employee test positive for Covid, so they had to close down. Today is the first day they have been open since. We watched them thoroughly clean each table before they sat people down. They’re very nice and energetic. Mom got the Turkey club with a side of onion rings. The onion rings were thin and crispy. And moms turkey club was very filling. I think she ate half and was full. The Hot Beef was GOOD. Real mashed potatoes. Homemade gravy not from a packet. 😋 AND it was only $16 total! I would definitely return here!!

I left a positive review about 5 years ago and since we just stopped back in today, I thought I’d update the review. Of course the food was great. I had the Kristen’s Hot Sausage sandwich and a side of their famous onion rings, which were crispy and delicious-the sandwich was a 10. The Mr had the traditional Hot Beef and had a slice of coconut cream pie for dessert. Both of which he said were excellent. Portions are large and the price is great. For 77 years they’ve provided great food and have an incredible staff of servers, cooks and anyone else there we’ve ever talked too.

Wonderful little cafe that offers a breakfast buffet (probably just on weekends?) or menu options. I ordered off the menu and was not disappointed, especially with the American fries (so good!). Loved the small hometown-style feel. Saw lots of staff chatting with local families and adding to the warm atmosphere of Crouse. Breakfast was really good overall, bacon was fantastic. The pancakes were a bit on the sweet side (I like the sweet to come from the syrup and these had what seemed like a strong vanilla flavor already) but will definitely be back.

We stopped here during a baseball tournament on Father’s Day. This place has amazing food and great waitstaff. We had a group of 15 kids and 15 adults and were seated quickly and served promptly. My breakfast buffet was excellent. Where else can a person get delicious cinnamon rolls, apple crisp, rhubarb crisp, blueberry cheesecake, and orange meringue on a breakfast buffet! supposedly, they have this breakfast buffet every Sunday morning. Prices were good too! Highly recommended.
