Carmen's Market Cafe — Restaurant in Lebanon

Carmen’s Market Cafe is an absolute treasure in Lebanon, MO! From the moment you walk in, the cozy, welcoming atmosphere sets the tone for a perfect experience. Their Niangua coffee is outstanding—smooth, rich, and full of local character. It’s easily one of the best cups of coffee I’ve had in the area.

What really sets Carmen’s apart, though, are the home-baked goods. The muffins and cookies are made fresh daily, and you can taste the difference. Soft, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweetness—seriously addictive. And don’t even get me started on their subs—the home-baked bread is next level. It’s fresh, hearty, and holds everything together perfectly without overpowering the fillings.

Carmen’s is the kind of place you want to keep coming back to—not just for the food and coffee, but for the friendly service and the sense of community it brings. Highly recommend making this your go-to...
