Lunch

Lunch at The Corner Cafe means farm-fresh ingredients like Painted Hills Natural beef and Diestel turkey on Golden Sheaf Ciabatta and Onion buns—it's no wonder we've twice been awarded "Best Sandwich" by the Good Times! Add homemade soups, simmering pot pies and crisp salads with locally-grown produce and zesty salad dressings made right here... Just take a number and while you wait, plan a to-die-for dessert from our Bakery!

Check out our Cafe Specials. Like you, we love new taste sensations, so each day we feature a special soup, sandwich and a hearty dish. Loyal customers look forward to these offerings for a delicious change of pace. Click on any calendar date to see what's extra special at The Buttery.
