Great, fresh ingredients. Always friendly service. Soooo good every single time. A must ever visit to Fort Bragg.

Honest food review is more like 3-3.5 stars. Nothing was bad, but it was all just okay. Servers were so friendly though! It's a nice atmosphere for sure, which made it a bummer that the food wasn't great. We came in for breakfast, and you want your diner potatoes to be delicious and your toast to be crisp. Everything was just so-so. I would probably skip it next time I'm in town.

Tasty food. Pies are so good. Nice family friendly and community oriented spot. Loved the hot sauce so much we bought a bottle to take home

So thankful I found this place! I am extremely allergic to dairy and nuts and so hesitant to eat anywhere. The staff was very reassuring and made me feel comfortable. Their food is fresh and tasted delicious! Highly recommend for anyone with allergies! They are super accommodating with great vegan and gluten free options. Thank you Cafe One for the great experience! I had the veggie omelet with vegan cheese and their potatoes are cut fresh!

Fabulous breakfast, really cute place, great service. A gem! Organic, tasty, good variety, everything homemade, the real deal

We LOVE this place. Family owned and run. Fantastic, warm, and very friendly service. (Angel and Cynthia are awesome!) Simple breakfast/lunch cafe-diner food, but made with real care and all organic, clean, and mostly locally sourced ingredients. Quite a few vegan and gluten free options, and custom requests are always greeted with a smile and a "sure no problem." Great sandwiches, (the "North of the Border" especially), and solid breakfast classics. Excellent Thanksgiving coffee in their own house blend, pressed loose-leaf teas, and their organic house-brand hot sauces are really great. We eat there at least once a week, and look forward to it every time.

Awesome, friendly, delicious, large portions, server was attentive and with a smile on his face. I think he truly enjoyed working there. The 7 of us sat outside with our two dogs and it was very pleasant. They serve local coffee, sorry I forgot the name.

Reconnected with a friend this morning who took me to breakfast. I asked for CafeOne as I hadn't been there in a minute and was excited to review. This Northside gem has a relaxed down home feel almost as if your grandmother was cooking. It's bright and the tables are far enough apart for you to have a conversation and there is some great local art on the wall. We were promptly greeted and given a green light to pick an empty table. They make an amazing Dirty Chai, hot and full of flavor. The breakfast burrito is giant even without meat and almost big enough for two. I chose the mushroom hash with a poached egg and couldn't be happier. The flavor of it was surprising as the mix melted in your mouth, I will get it again. This organic establishment should be on your rotation for breakfast choices if you are a local and one to compete with any of the more well known spots in Fort Bragg.

What a delightful spot to grab breakfast or lunch. When you walk into Cafe One you go back in time to the fun dinner experience. You'll see photos of the Lucy show and other cool oldies items. You can sit at a diner table with comfy chairs or at the diner counter with stools that have cushioned seats and backs and never worry there's a back room with more than enough seating. You'll find a favorite spot for each time you visit. The service is genuinely top notch. The friendly and attentive staff go out of their way to make sure you feel welcome and taking care of. They offer a menu with a variety of favorites, plenty of favorites for us vegans too. This is a hidden gem that checks all the boxes for a memorable dining experience.

Although this place doesn't look like much , the food was really good. The service was pretty fast as well. We were really grateful to see vegan options on the menu. We tried the following : Vegan florentine : 4/5 Huevos Rancheros with tofu instead of eggs : 5/5. This couldn't be any better. Pancakes with blueberry: 4/5. The maple syrup could have been better, it was too runny. You can skip the lattes, they were not exceptional. The freshly squeezed orange juice was good, but came with pulp. The service was pretty good.
