Midway Cafe
1017 S Ft Thomas Ave, Newport, KY
Crema's Take
“Midway Cafe is a beloved Newport institution where attentive service and unexpectedly stellar tavern food create the kind of place locals keep returning to—their dill pickle rubbed wings and generously-portioned, saucy wings are legendary, but the grilled cheese and homemade-style ketchup show real care in execution. The cozy, family-friendly atmosphere makes it perfect for lingering over a meal with friends, where staff like Frank genuinely look after you and the food quality consistently exceeds what you'd expect from a casual spot.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.
