Central City Cafe

All the antique stores owners recommended this place in the area .
Great food and service.

Eating at Central City Cafe was a delightful experience. From the moment you step in, you are greeted with warm smiles and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel at home. My white bean soup and cornbread were divine. The key lime pie is to die for. The homemade foods served here are absolutely scrumptious, evoking a nostalgic taste that reminds you of great home cooking growing up.

Whether you're a local or a traveler passing through, Central City Cafe is a must-visit for a hearty meal, welcoming ambiance, and a taste of homemade goodness that'll leave you craving more.

One of my new fave eating spots in Huntington!

One of the best lunch spots in the Huntington area. Great home cooked food. During this visit I had the vegetable soup, cornbread and a grilled cheese sandwich. All were fresh and so tasty. No better cornbread around. Service is always fast and efficient. One of my favorite places.

Family run business, great home made food, friendly staff. They're only open for a handful of hours a day, and despite that, this place gets packed. That's really all you need to know. This place has great food and you'll definitely find something to eat that suits you, and won't regret stopping by!

Wonderful down home, country cookin'. Can't beat the service; staff is superb and nice. The owner comes around to meet and greet; very genuine. Gotta love the old town memorabilia.

We arrived at the Central City Cafe right before they were shutting down for 10 days for vacation, and because of that, they had not re-ordered some of their food. We really wanted to try the meat loaf, but we were sorry to hear they had run out. However, the cheeseburgers we had instead were REALLY good, loaded with cheese, and huge! The menu had a lot of great comfort foods, and we look forward to a return trip someday when they're fully stocked. Service was excellent, and no fewer than 3 people came to our table to be sure we were happy. This is a small casual place with great food and great people. Highly recommended!

Such a wonderful place for a meal! BLT was stacked high, grilled cheese had multiple cheeses. Fruit cups were fresh with a delightful side dip. Fresh iced tea--unsweet--came with fresh orange slices.

We are not from the area but wanted to eat local! Can't get more local than Central City Cafe! Great home cooking! I had the open face roast beef, with mashed potatoes! Yum, Yum! We had 6 in our group, and everyone loved the food! Would go again if ever in town!

Great service, very fast and attentive. Good food, Accessible, homey menu. Family owned restaurant!

Wow, came to Huntington to visit a friend, it’s the first time I’ve ever visited the city. My friend took me here and while it was super crowded because of the fest, the service was awesome. We waited a while to be seated as it was super crowded. Once we were seated, we ordered and the server (I believe she was one of the owners) came back with our drink super quick (also brought a pitcher of soda which is a genius move when you’re a busy server) there were only a few cooks and they were busier than normal. Our food took an hour to come out but the server gave us free macaroni salad and free slices of the best key lime pie I’ve ever had. When our food finally came it was delicious. Fresh veggies on the American club and hand smashed burgers made to order. This place is a great example of good customer service. Can’t wait to come back to Huntington!!!

Proud to say I've been a regular here for a little over 2 years. The team they have here is absolutely wonderful. Everyone is kind and easy to talk to. The food is also absolutely delicious. I've never been disappointed with anything I've ordered. If you're looking for food that's good for the soul and an atmosphere that invokes a warm sense of nostalgia, this is the right place. The whataburger is a great option and the chicken salad sandwich is also great but if you want my favorite, get the Reuben with Chilli and cornbread. Tell them Rosie sent you 😊

Great food and customary service is impeccable. After a few visits one feels more like family.

This place reminds me of a few places I went to growing up. It's full of old photos and really has an old timey feel in the best way possible. The meatloaf is awesome and I love the little slice of watermelon they give you on the side of the plate! The servers are so nice and it's family owned and family operated! I waited way too long to try this place so please don't make the same mistake!

This is the place. The food is great. If your looking for a good down to earth place for a bite to eat this is the place. It is also on the same street as the antique shops so it's a great place to park and spend the day.

This place is a gem in the old Central City district. Homemade everything. Great food, better service. Diner food done correct.

Lunch only! But great service, food and amazing atmosphere.

Love all their food and the friendly family atmosphere, interesting historic decor plus really good Home cooking! Gone there for years.

We love this place for lunch. The owner and staff make you feel like family. The club sandwich here is gigantic!

Loved this place! I went here for lunch with my wife. I had never been. I got the baked steak and it was absolutely perfect! I hadn't had baked steak that good since my grandmother was alive. The atmosphere is really good. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Would definitely eat here again. My only tiny issue was i found the prices to be a tad on the high side, but I am sure there is a reason for it.

Family owned and ran! I love this restaurant! They are so amazing at cooking and are so awesomely fast at getting your food out. Great place to eat! I would highly recommend it over any other restaurants in all over Huntington, WV.
