This is a great place to get breakfast! The menu has some creative variations every time I go in. Even the simple things like French toast and hash-browns are well executed. The eggs Benedict is very good.The seating is a little light so be prepared to wait if you show up at the wrong time.The coffee is decent for diner coffee. Service is good. Best breakfast spot in the area.

The pics should say it all. Love everything about Glenda's. Great food and great service. Made from scratch desserts. Yum! This is the classic BLT, salsa/avocado "burger" (I chose no meat), pecan pie and chocolate mousse cake.

Home cooked food at it finest. We visited Glenda's for a last minute dinner out. The food was outstanding. I had a french dip sandwich with seasoned steak fries and creamy coleslaw. My husband had the salmon blt, which he quickly devoured. Raspberry pie and banana cream pie for dessert, which was homemade. The last time I had banana cream pie this good was in New Orleans. Excellent service and atmosphere. We will be back. Prices were reasonable also.

Have been there many times, and will be back many more! Great food, simple and delicious. Very comfortable, like being in a friend's home. The desserts are favorites, cakes, pies, and so much more. A go-to place after a long day, to relax and enjoy a quiet meal. Brenda and Glenn, thank you for your restaurant!

Looking for delicious food…this your spot! It’s truly a gem in the Lake Country. The dinner menu is written on a board attached to the wall…asked for any basic cocktail and they’ll be able to make it for you. When you dine indoors you’re treated with watching the kitchen is make your meal in the same room! I felt like I was in my Grandparents home enjoying a meal prepared just for me. Don’t miss the homemade desserts, enticing you in the counter. Don’t worry, if you’re too full to enjoy dessert while at Glenda’s Cafe they’ll send one home with you!

I have to say this one of the best cafés in lake country. The service, the food is just amazing. The people that work here are just so friendly.

I came here with my mom and grandma. It’s a small little diner. They have a small selective menu which I personally like because then it’s easier to make a decision! We had good service. The atmosphere was good for my grandma. She could hear our conversations for the most part. The food and service were great!

We absolutely love everything about Glendas. Every dish is made by Glen, who is an outstanding chef. We frequently take guests there as we know they will also enjoy their meal. We have had breakfast, lunch and dinner.
