Ellens Cafe On 3rd — Restaurant in Leesburg

Went to lunch with a friend of mine who owns his own special cup at the restaurant. A cup that turns from Blue to purple depending on whether ice is in it!

Right from the onset, the restaurant has a very casual and comforting appeal. It's quietly nestled on 3rd Street next to the antique store on Magnolia.

Cruising into the front door, we met Miss Ellen, the owner. She gave us a warm and hartefelt welcome!

After perusing the simple but tempting menu I decided to order chef salad. My friend ordered spinach chicken salad.

We were free to get our own drinks. So my friend filled his blue glass up so that he could see a completely purple vessel. I filed an ordinary red cup and proceeded to get Coca-Cola.

It was lunch time and the line ahead of us was tucked deep with customers We didn't have to wait long for our meal to show up.

Miss Ellen was hard at work in the kitchen! Our meals had a beautiful plate presense.

As I dug into my chef salad, prepared with very fresh ingredients, a taste-filled honey-mustard dressing and wonderfully prepared croutons, I did the "Eating Moan" as I call it. Each bite was a "taste" Journey.

I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone that is looking for a simple but fine dining experience!!

Kudos Ellen... YOU...

So good! I placed an order for lunch and got the tuna melt with potato salad on the side and also a cup of their broccoli cheddar soup. OMG let me just tell you...I am so satisfied! The soup is seriously one of the best broccoli cheddar I've ever had! My to go box was completely filled between my giant sandwich and my large portion of potato salad. The potato salad was excellent and the sandwich was perfect! Cant wait to go back and try what else they have...especially their...

Wow! All my local friends have been telling me to get lunch at Ellen’s Cafe and I get so busy down at my end of Main Street I just now made it. I had to get a To Go and I got the chicken salad plate (photo included)! This is delicious and absolutely huge portion size. Highly suggest! My fiancé just called from over at his office, he got the same because we were in a hurry and he is also super happy. Eat at Ellen’s! Home cooking...
