We were pleasantly surprised by the combination of flavor and low prices despite the wait. Josh got their famous Western omelet, which was full of fresh veggie flavor and covered the entire plate. It was one of the most flavorful omelets made with simple ingredients. In honor of my dad, I ordered a fried bologna sandwich which filled me with nostalgia. The bologna was thick and just the right amount of greasy. To satisfy our carb cravings, we also shared a sausage gravy and biscuits entrée. The biscuits were soft, and the gravy was thick and full of sausage, not something you see often in restaurants. The best part of the meal was the price – we spent twenty-five dollars on three entrees before tip, which is roughly what we would spend on fast food for just the two of us.

 

If we were to visit again, we’d consider the day and time more carefully. While we waited, we noticed a variety of people coming and going, including German Village residents, college-age students, and regulars who have been coming for years. The people on either side of us were such regulars that the workers knew both of their orders by heart. In a world that’s always on the move, time seemed to stand still in the German Village Coffee Shop.
