We loved the food, but the waitresses weren't exactly friendly to us and the young lady that rang us up at the counter wasn't friendly at all. They are much friendlier at the Red Rooster!

We absolutely love breakfast at the Pointer Cafe! They offer a large menu with something for everyone, ensuring that all tastes are catered to. From hearty omelets to delicious pancakes, the options are plentiful and satisfying.
In addition to breakfast, the cafe also provides a wide variety for lunch, featuring classic American dishes that are sure to please. The cooking is truly all-American, and you can expect to leave feeling full and satisfied after your meal.
The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for families and friends to gather. Whether you're a local or just passing through Mineral Point, the Pointer Cafe is definitely worth a visit!

I completely agree that this place only cares about locals. My husband and I are from out of town and walked in on a Monday around 1pm. We said hello to a waitress and she simply looked us up and down without saying a word. We found a table and she brought menus and literally dropped the rolled silverware on the table. A new waitress took our order and was kind. We waited over 20 minutes for a BLT and burger that were inedible. When we brought it to their attention we had been waiting that long, the first woman barked at my husband about it being busy. (It wasn’t. At all.) The burger was gray and the bun was soaked with juice. The mayo on both of our meals looked curdled. We took it to go and tossed it in the trash at a gas station. It was all so bad, it was almost humorous. To be fair, the fries were decent! Lesson learned that unless you live in Mineral Point, avoid this place if you can.

I knew when my coffee was partially transparent that it was going to be rough. The coffee was very watered down, the hollandaise for the eggs Benedict was extremely salty, and the corned beef hash was burnt. My omelette was okay, but not great. Waitress offered more coffee and then forgot to bring it, though I suppose it may have been a good thing since it was so watery. On the plus side, prices were very low.

The service and food is always great here. Food is hot, made to order and correct when it gets to your table. It’s a casual atmosphere with many food options at a good price. It’s one of my favorite places to eat in the area.

It’s an interesting place to go to. I really like the interior decorations. The food is average. What I ordered was a little uncooked (hash browns and pancakes). There was a little batter still on the side of my pancake and the hash browns were not very cooked at all. The waitress messed up my order and I received sunny side up instead of scrambled, which wasn’t the end of the world. She did check up on us multiple times to make sure we were enjoying our food. The wait time was normal.

Stop here passing through on a weekend trip. Stopped for breakfast food was decent it had my usual menu items I would order. The wait was a bit lengthy and maybe not worth the end result when considering that it isn't the most budget friendly place to eat. I order an omelet which was on special came with hashbrowns and toast and was about $10, but the regular price would cost 12 bucks

The food was really good especially the fries! Wait staff was friendly and attentive.
Everything was very loud due to the acoustics in the room. Not a great idea to put a children's play area in a room that amplifies noise. My rating was so low because the prices on my receipt were higher than what was listed on the menu. That's not honest business. I won't be returning here.

Super super rude will never go back first of all took way to long for the waitress to acknowledge we were there. Waitress took a long time as she definitely catered to locals. I ordered a lunch special and added on salad bar I got my salad and soup I decided to give my soup which was included to my son since we waited so long and he was hungry. When I went to pay my bill she told me total I asked to see my bill she got irritated and slammed it down. I asked her what the open food was she told me it was for my son eating my soup I explained to her I gave him my soup not only that I did buy him his own meal she literally went off on me how I’m not getting foood anywhere cheaper and was so rude I then paid for another bill I asked her to see the bill as again she only told me what I owed she groaned and through it down I told her it was my right to see my bill she then said this was my fault and I was turning it around on her. Moral of the story the lady is rude and has no business working in the food industry

We had a burial in Mifflin for my mother in law Pat (Johnston) DeWitt. All of us being from out of town we needed a gathering place afterwards.
I phoned Suzi after finding the pointer cafe online.
Gave her my requests for 25 people.
Her, Terry and sweet Brook knocked it out of the park.
The 3 of them did the work of ten.
The food was beyond delicious.
What a great place.
I highly recommend the pointer Cafe for one of the best meeting places in the area....
Thank you ladies!
The DeWitt, Smith and Johnston families

Tasty home cooked meals served by local caring people.
Not the cheapest place, but noticibly better than other area cafes, eateries and restaurants.
Breakfast is made fresh any time of day.
Generous tastey food portions are served by a personable waitress that doesn't stop until you ate stuffed and heading out the door. You will stop back again.

A place that outsiders are not welcome. If you don't know these people, you will be served like you are bothering them. We came in for our second time. It's a seat yourself place. Then two tables came in after us. The wait staff obviously knew those people because they went to them first. We sat for 40 minutes waiting for our breakfast as the ones that came in after us enjoyed their breakfast. Anyway, if you're not from here, don't come here. It's that kind of place.

What an adorable little place!
Our trip began at 715am. After picking up my son from the Airport.in Madsion, his Girlfriend suggested we meet.her at the Pointer Cafe for lunch on the way home. We were traveling with an 18 month old and did nit expect the GREAT ENTERTAINMENT this.place would provide.
I kick myself for not taking pictures of the most adorable kids play area. They have a table set fairly close to the area with a one way in and out open door frame. So while we were able to sit and enjoy a meal, the little man played and wore off energy.for our trip home. I wish more places had this available.
As for the food.... our table had spaghetti and meatballs ( that my 14yr old thoughts had great flavor and was delicious ) ,liver and onions ( my 25yr old said was good however the liver was a little tough) oatmeal with eggs and English muffins ( there was a little confusion about the no dairy inky because the buttered the muffin however they brought out the dry muffin with no problem and everything had great taste, the oatmeal was very filling and Alot.of it) pancakes, eggs, bacon, toast ( my oldest son said it was delicious!! IN fact his girlfriend stole a few bites and agreed) I.ORDERD the Monte Cristo, ( always try one anywhere I can find them! I am use.to it being ham and turkey but there was only ham and The ham was a little tough...there was no fruit served with it or.fruit preserve which made me a little sad. However it may not have been my best Monti Cristo but it did it was still good. And I LOVE THE FRIES. We also had carrot cake and coffee cake but taste GREAT
THE SERVICE was really friendly and good. And the environment was clean and had some great things to LOok at for deco..
PRICE.. what a great value everything was. We were definitely shocked that our ticket was not more.
I will definitely love to come back and try more of the menu items. It was just such a cute little place.!!!!

Once we ordered, our food came out very fast. We both agreed our food was excellent. I had a Reuben and the corned beef was so tender! If I lived nearer, I’d eat be eating here all the time.

Very high quality Cafe style food. They were understaffed and struggled to handle the Sunday brunch crowd but well worth the wait for the delicious French fries. The tuna melt was made with brown not white tuna so was very fishy tasting. Hubby regretted ordering an egg skillet instead of the meatloaf. The meatloaf looked very good.

Horrible first impression! Upon entering, there is no sign letting you know to seat yourself or wait to be seated. Made eye contact with multiple employees yet no one was courteous enough to acknowledge us. After being completely ignored, we chose to leave. Can't comment on the food, but if it's anythin like what we experienced, we are glad we left.
