Nel's Cafe in Indiana

"It's nice home cooked meals away from home. Not expensive. All made from scratch. No dough in the omelettes, or prefabricated frozen kits. They chop the vegetables fresh for your breakfast. Too bad the pandemic has hit them and they cannot stay open for lunch. I do miss the daily lunch specials"

"It's a tiny cafe in a tiny town. You get personality in a place like this, and fresh cracked eggs, rather than blank stares and commissary food. It's my favorite hole in the wall."

"The prices are great, and the food usually comes up pretty quick. The portions are smaller, but I like that I can actually finish my meal. Someone once told me that they got the best BLT they've ever had at Nel's. It is located in a small town so it probably doesn't get the amount of business that would support updates inside unfortunately."

"We always get the typical egg breakfast, French toast breakfast, and biscuits and gravy and all of it is delicious. We LOVE this place! Their current hours are 6a-1p. I wish they'd extend the hours a little and decor could maybe use a little sprucing, but regardless, Nel's is a wonderful breakfast/lunch diner! The staff is always so kind and accommodating too. We will stay Nel's fans for sure!"

"This little diner surprised my granddaughter and I. We were nervous to be the only guests. In my opinion, that’s a bad sign. We were pleasantly surprised. The waitress was very accommodating. My eggs, ham, hash browns were delicious. The grilled chicken sandwich had a generous amount of chicken. The hot cocoa was fun. Definitely coming back"

"Best price for breakfast. My buddy got a whole order of biscuits and gravy. It was huge and he said it tasted like how is grandpa use to make them."

"Very cool old diner serving lunch and breakfast. Food prices are very reasonable and for the money the food was good. Ordered corn beef hash and came out crispy and cooked well, which I love! Apple Pie was good, too."

"Nice little diner in the heart of Downtown Ossian. The owner is my old childhood neighbor. She and the waitress here are very friendly, fast and willing to help serve you, and assist you w/ any questions, comments, concerns, or praises you might have, in regards to your meals. The foods that are served are pretty good, as well. I grew up in Ossian, and it was always nice to come here, have a meal w/ my dad, and enjoy that small-town diner experience. The hours are limited, but it’s worth a try. Recommend for anyone who lives here, or who is just traveling through on Indiana Hwy 1. :-)"
