Key's Cafe & Bakery

Minneapolis chain serving lumberjack platters of home-style Midwestern food since 1973.

In Short
Nothing fancy, just lots of it (there must be three potatoes in a plate of American fries). A perennial staple of local "best breakfast" lists, Keys slings hash (roast beef or sausage), steak and eggs, omelets and pancakes (blueberry-bran, raisin-pecan). Besides breakfast, Keys serves burgers, hot and cold sandwiches and motherly comforts such as turkey and meat loaf. In case you want something sweet, the bakery turns out mammoth cookies, pies, caramel rolls and cakes.

Large portions

Food is always good here. You will not leave hungry. Their signature omlets are awesome. However service is less than desirable, espeically when busy, like on Sundays. Pricing is fair

• Pros: omlets, homemade items
• Cons: service

I have eaten at the Key's in Roseville several times, trying something new each time and I have loved everything I have had so far. The portions are enormous (I have yet to finish everything completely) and every bite is unbelieveably great. From their gigantic mouth-watering pancakes to their fantastic rolls and cookies, I have savored every mouthfull. Toss in that they have extremely low prices and you can not beat Key's value. Two of my three visits the owners even came over and made sure we had great meal. I look forward to my next meal there!

• Pros: Owners are involved., Great food!!!, Unbeatable value!
• Cons: None
