Mather's More Than a Cafe

For years I've said I was going to stop in and check the place out and now that I have I am kicking myself for not having done so sooner, I was very impressed!  As other comments have stated it is more of a community center with a built in restaurant.  
All activities are for those 55 and older but the restaurant is for everyone. The food was good and people were very friendly.   I will absolutely go back.

Beyond food.

Mather cafe is a community center/Cafe.  On a recent lunch visit I unexpectedly walked in on a line dancing class,  and a computer class,  all inside the cafe.

I was on my lunch break,  only have 30 minutes  so I couldn't ask many questions about what the mission statement was.  It was obvious to me that this cafe goes far beyond its name.  A schedule of events just for Wednesday included,  computer class for beginners,  line dancing class,  open workout room,  self defense class, yoga,  and about 5 other things that are slipping my memory.  Very friendly and helpful staff.

The Cafe is a walk up  counter with an order board and a specials board,  many sandwich and plate lunch specials, my friend got the Waffle and fried chicken tenders,  and I had a tuna melt,  the melt was done very well,  with a huge portion of Tuna.  The waffle was good as well.  
Breakfast is served all day and they open at 8:30,  too bad because that is a little late for me.

As the Colonel said this is mainly for older adults.  It is an interesting concept, and I believe there to be others,  it really fills a gap in the market.   I don't know what else the neighborhood offers as far as food,  but when I am here this will be my place.

Good food... Nice people... This place is mainly for older adults but all are welcome
