Meridian Cafe

A great place to have breakfast for the low. The food was great. Service was wonderful and very helpful. You get a lot of food for a low cost.

The service was excellent and the food was good, tasted like home cooking. The only reason I did not give it a better rating is because the hours of operation are so limited. I will definitely visit Meridian again for breakfast or lunch (dinner is not an option).

I enjoyed the food at the Meridian Café. The cornbread was great, and I really liked the sweet potatoes and the green beans. The fried chicken was unfortunately a bit dry. It is VERY reasonably priced and the portions are big. The staff is friendly.

This café is the one at Meridian and Douglas. There’s a lot on Meridian. It’s not bad, certainly better than I can cook and more variety. This meat and 2 has a friendly feel. The mom cooks and son serves. Every day there’s fried chicken, baked chicken and porkchops, and then perhaps another daily special meat selection. I tasted the baked chicken (flavoring is ok, a bit dry), macaroni and cheese (average, I prefer an intense roux to adhere the cheese to noodles throughout), turnip greens (ok), cabbage (absolutely no seasoning, bland), fried corn (excellent), and sweet potatoes (delicious). The standout is the hot water cornbread, which is off-​the-​chain good and if my daughter isn’t watching, I’m taking one of her two pieces!
Meat and 2 is $ 6.95 and a 3-​veggie plate is $ 5. I like that he asked which «veggie» we wanted more of, so we got a HUGE helping of mac and cheese.
There is dine-​in but it appears to be an option few take.
Next, I’ll try the other Meridian Café at Meridian and Arrington.
