Village Coffee Shop — Restaurant in Lodi

My Husband and I had breakfast here for the first time. Just like some other reviews we weren't greeted all too nicely. First thing walking in we notice is the older lady Waitress stare at us funny. We Did not care, the younger waitress told us to have a seat anywhere. We had a seat while some older senior men stared at us funny as well. After ordering and receiving food, we chowed down. A COCKROACH appeared on the table. I felt sick after eating when we left. Other then that the food was very plain, the toast was stale. The hashbrowns were very very oily. My husband said his country potatoes were very good. The pancakes were also very plain. Will not be coming back. The place is old and I get that,but it's very dingy and kind of dirty. Some of the chairs are very wobbly. I never read reviews before going to a new place so other people's reviews don't influence mine,NOW I wish I did read...

It started off me and my sister shared pick three items to your entrée. She ordered biscuits gravy. Side order of bacon. I had 1 Pancake and 1 egg. Both had coffee. After 1 hr of being there. We were waitin for our mom. Cause my mom was in out patient surgery. And this place was down the street. We don't know what happened to us between when we left Juli's restaurant from pickup and taking our mom home. we both wasn't feeling to well.. I had a stomach ache the whole day. And my sister was feeling weird and had upset stomach for 2 days right after. We were trying to figure why we were weren't feeling not so good. Maybe it was the milk creamers for the coffee was maybe left out to long. Or refrigeratored over and over to make us both sick for few days. Food tasted good. So we don't know after eating there that we both didn't feel to well. 😏😏 still trying to figure it out...

I never feel compelled to write reviews but I have been here a handful of times and always have the same experience. It’s a nice hole in the wall to catch a quick bite that has a ma & pop feel. The service if you aren’t a regular is pretty poor. You will get looks from the elderly couples and servers for sitting in particular spots. You will not be greeted or given any small talk on your way in or out. Unless you’ve been coming for what looks like decades. My server multiple times brushes past thank you, or how are you as if you never even said anything. Not to mention the way they treat the younger employees. I’ve seen the same elderly crew talk down and condescending to dishwashers and hostesses alike. I don’t see many of them around anymore either. Don’t like this place much. Won’t be...
