The Cafe On Cotton — Restaurant in Millen

The food in the online pictures looked delicious! Unfortunately, it took almost an hour to get our food, which was fine, but not worth the wait. Especially when everyone else was eating from the buffet. The wait staff was friendly... but very slow. It took almost 45 mins to get our drinks. They brought our food at separate times so some of our food was cold by the time the rest of the food was finally brought to the table. Sadly, my daughters grilled cheese sandwich was frozen in the center. I hate leaving negative reviews, but this wasn't a pleasant experience.

One extra thing: The desserts were left on tables along the hallway that led to the bathroom. Most of them were not covered, just left to the open air.

I wish I had a better review. The staff would get a better rating if they hadn't forgotten us so many times and ignored us when we needed...

What a great choice it was for us to stop here while traveling through, which just happened to be 25 minutes before their closing time. We expecting to be rushed because of the timing, but there couldn’t be anything further from the truth. All the staff were warm, welcoming, and humble. The food was amazing and service was quicker than most fast food places. Icing on the cake was to see all the staff enjoying food together, like a family, after they were actually closed. This speaks volumes to their work environment. We will stop by any time we are in the area and, heck, I might make the trip just for those...

While staying at the Magnolia Springs State Park, we stopped at The Cafe On Cotton for lunch. All offerings on the buffet were outstanding. Fried chicken and meatloaf were awesome. Lots of dessert choices… I think she named off about 15! Service excellent. Very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. $11 for buffet (2 meats and 3 vegetables, salad bar, a drink, and dessert). All you can eat (trust me $11 option was plenty) is a couple dollars more. Open 11 am to 2 pm. Knew it was good when we saw tons of cars including local EMS folks. Huge seating area…. Distancing is easily...
