Lodi Airport Cafe

*****CASH ONLY or a CHECK IF YOUR LOCAL*****

My son and I flew in to Lodi on Saturday, April 27 and while there, decided to have breakfast at the Airport Cafe.  

We arrived about 1000 AM and were seated immediately.  As you can see by the breakfast menu picture taken, the menu is basic and limited.  What's not seen is the fine print and cost for the sides and beverages near the bottom of the page.  

When it came time to pay, I was handed a ticket for $25 bucks (before tip) which I thought was way high for just an Omelets, OJ, a Two Egg Breakfast and a cup of Coffee.  But when it came time for me to crunch the numbers, I came to the conclusion that everything cost.  I originally wanted three eggs and since the two egg breakfast was one shy, I ordered an additional egg at $1.50.  My son had OJ to drink and I had Coffee.  Both of us had refills and we we're charged accordingly for each cup or glass drank.

My breakfast was okay.  Nothing fancy or special, just okay.  My son said his omelet was great.  He said the sausage was outstanding and he thought the sliced avocado on top gave the dish a unique flavor.

The restaurant is very cute and wholesome.  It's designed to look like a airport hanger.  All the luggage, crates and shipping containers included.  The restroom was clean and smelled fresh and had very modern fixtures.

Overall a nice place I'd return to if I was flying that way but, not a place I would drive because I've had better.

I have been flying in once every couple of months for breakfast for years.  I flying out of Livermore and it is a nice short flight to bring friends along.  The Cafe was closed last July for a remodel and Wow what a difference!  The place is beautiful, done in an aviation theme, lots of riveted sheet metal and the DC-3 wing tip is a nice touch.

The food is great, try the apple sauce pancakes!

Great for pilots; plenty of airplane parking and super friendly staff. The diner is clean and the food is tasty.
