Karen’s Cafe & Catering

This place has to be one of my favorite places to eat breakfast and lunch. The staff is friendly. The food is fresh & fast! The environment is inviting. It’s southern charm. I love that they offer different types of sausage (links, smoked, & patty). Thy have the cutest mugs for my coffee. My belly’s happy, so I’m happy. I can tell they take pride in the cleanliness of their restaurant. The water tastes clean! Which means they clean their drink machine thoroughly. It’s been part of my route after I drop off the kids and on the way to work, love coming here!

Karen’s is a true gem in the Pensacola community, and our first visit today was a joy. The customer service was fast, hospitable, and consistent, the dishes were prepared and served quickly and were absolutely delicious, and everything tasted home made. The inside of the restaurant was clean and you could see it was well kept. We enjoyed a grilled pork chop, sweet potato casserole, cornbread, and green beans for one meal, and a delicious bacon cheeseburger and side salad for the other. The specials come with two sides and you will see they all sound wonderful, and there was a bunch of home cooked desserts available up front. A must try restaurant. Note, they are only open Monday thru Friday for breakfast and lunch. An easy five stars.

Fast and friendly service. The food was excellent and homly.

Karen’s café and catering is one of the top restaurants in the country. The kitchen is clean and Karen’s has the best lunch and breakfast entrees! I told her today that I’ve traveled all over the world and that her restaurant is the best of the best!!! I also order catering for my family during the holidays and I am always so impressed! The food is delicious! Such great eats.

This place has it all. Great food ,we had the Club sandwich w/cut fries and a side of the corn casserole, with sweet tea a complete lunch. They have dailey blackboard specials, that day.Fried Chicken, Meat loaf, Chicken /dumplings. Everything that passed our table looked and smelled Delicious.They're only open for Breakfast and Lunch.

I ate there for breakfast. There are plenty of options to choose from. I ended up with the oatmeal with fruits. The food was very good and the potion huge.I want to try their lunch sometime. It looks like they have good lunch menu.The atmosphere is pleasant and very southern.

I have lived here all of my life and I have never seen this place. What a down home southern feel it had to it. It was like going into your neighborhood restaurant. Kind of like the way Jerry's used to make me feel. Even the bathroom was adorable! You have two servers on the floor and they take care of the whole restaurant. And I had the best service from them! The owner came over and talked to my table twice she was back in the kitchen cooking at the counter taking money. The food was amazing I had the Philly cheesesteak and the sweet potato waffle fries so good I will definitely be back.

First time here and it will not be the last. When we got there we sat ourselves and Ms. Karen came to greet us with the menu. It was still early but quite a few people were already dining. They only open during the week 6am to 2pm. Not open on the weekends. If you want a good down home breakfast, I would highly recommend this place. I got myself a coffee and three egg breakfasts with homestyle fries, country fried steak, n biscuit.. The portion is very generous for 11.99. My camera person got the morning special steak omelette with hash brown n toast. Overall 9 Chaus will be back for sure.
