Christy's Cafe — Restaurant in Newnan

Food: 2/5 Service: 2/5 Atmosphere: 4/5

I was invited to join my mother-in-law for brunch, and she had only heard good things about this small-town style cafe. However, today was mediocre at best. Collectively, we ordered the Reuben sandwich with tater tots, a double bacon cheeseburger with onion rings, and a breakfast special with french toast, two eggs over medium, and bacon. We had no issues or critique with the Reuben sandwich, the french toast, or the bacon.

The service was lackluster, and there wasn't any charm included with our service. We waited for about five minutes with three different people telling us "someone will be with you shortly." We were seated at a table after being told there were no tables; they sat us at a large party table, which was fine with us. After we ordered drinks, we didn't get refills until after we finished our food, which all-in-all was about 40 minutes.

The cheeseburger I ate was too big for its bun, almost too big for me to take a bite of. Good value for the price, but the patty was tasteless, like it was just a plain meat patty with no seasoning. Grease was dripping from the burger with every bite, and the cheese sloughed off of the burger in a half-melted greasy mess. I paid an upcharge for onion rings, and received four large onion rings and a few small bits, all of which were filled with grease.

The eggs were supposed to be over-medium, but they were very undercooked. When we brought it up to our server they said "oh, okay." We didn't want to wait for a new one, so we just paid cash and left.

Something I can say is the decor really feels rustic and pleasantly familiar, with local artwork hung up on the walls for sale in almost every room. Also, even though we waited a while for our food, all of their tables were full except one when we went in.

Overall, I can't say I recommend Christy's Cafe over any other local restaurant in downtown Newnan, but my experience may not be...

The food is bland and entirely unseasoned, most likely to encourage guests to season their plates at the table in an effort to avoid anyone complaining their food is “too salty” or something similar. There isn’t anything on the menu that is particularly special, the menu lacks personality. It’s a very basic, inoffensive breakfast menu for anyone looking for something they could easily make at home but would rather not do the dishes.

The location itself could be charming- it’s located in one of the old houses off the square, but unfortunately the space isn’t very well used. We were in a very small back room, which wouldn’t be an issue normally, but that particular dining area also doubled as a storage space for weird knock-knacks and stacks of unused wall art and old coffee cups that were clearly not in use but hadn’t been tossed out or sold. The dining space said in so many words what the menu said: this is a bland place with bland food. It wasn’t a “bad” experience, but for the fact that we were expecting a restaurant in the square to have more to say for itself. This is the type of restaurant you don’t remember because it was so unbelievably and remarkably “okay” that the experience is like a soft-serve ice cream machine at a low-budget buffet.

The wait staff were friendly enough, though the “customer service voice” the wait staff used was stale and impersonal. Waiting tables is hard, and it’s even more difficult when you have to serve uninspired food that you can’t sell with genuine endorsement. I feel sorry for the waitresses.

If you ever find yourself walking in the square and you get hungry but don’t want to remember what you ate or where you ate it, this is the perfect spot for you.

PS- to the guy who wrote the review saying the shrimp and grits was “good”, you’re a liar and you should feel bad...
