"Do not sleep on this place, express cafe moves like prime Michael Jordan or Lebron James. It DOESN’T matter what you order from here, they literally do not miss, from the crispiest yet fluffiest waffles I’ve ever had, to a traditional biscuit and gravy, they serve every dish with a type of love your grandmother handed down when she’d cook for you. And when I say the foods good, the people handling the food are no exception either, some of the finest staff I’ve met, they listen and take the time to make sure your order, is yours. If your stomach yearns for a breakfast dreamt in dreams, and you wish to sate that hunger, come on down to express cafe, where dreams meet reality."

"Hands down the best breakfast place in the Valley!! I absolutely love their cinnamon roll French toast. It will always be my go to but seriously everything they have is amazing! They also have a very delicious lunch menu."

"We really need to go back as a group again. Jammed into a couple tables, all thirteen of us loved this place. It's a small coffee, breakfast and lunch cafe with the old style "u" shaped counter, hard surface booths, lots of white paint on the walls, servers that move between the tables so fast - taking orders, dropping off beverages and food, condiments, and then picking it all up, cleaning the surfaces and starting all over again. Pricing is very reasonable, especially for the size of the portions. Putting it altogether, that's why the parking lot, especially on weekends and morning time is usually full. No photos of the Taco Omelet and Everything Omelet, those were dug into before I could capture. Sure looked filling. Really liked how crispy the country potatoes and fries were, and a clean oil taste, even for the fish and chips and chicken strips. Decent biscuits and gravy. Just a solid place for breakfast."

"Express Cafe will always have a tender spot in my heart. I have so many fond memories of this joint. Many breakfasts have been eaten here when my daughter was little. Many mother's day outings here with my daughter before I worked my 13 hour shift serving other moms. It will forever hold the best memories for me. It has been close to 9 years since I have eaten here. Moving towards the north end created a big distance between us. But I was in the area with my neice today so we stopped in for breakfast. There's no other place in Meridian that I'd rather eat breakfast at! I remember this joint when the old owners owned it. It honestly was run down, old and dated. Your typical greasy spoon. My friend, Bob, took it over about 10 years ago and has totally given it the face lift it needed. It's brighter, cleaner and welcoming. I love the fresh flowers with our beautiful country's flag by the front door. I love the flowers painted on the windows too, it gives it such a fun appearance. I love the bright white building with the black trim. I love the bright lines in the parking lot. It's been revamped outside and it's gorgeous. Inside of the venue has had work done as well. The drapes were red, white and blue to go with the 4th of July. I love that they decorated for America's birthday. I'm sure they change it through the different holidays. The lighting is brighter. The decor is simple and fun. It just looks cleaner and fresh inside. It's not the old greasy spoon it used to be. My neice and I decided to sit at the bar, that's where my daughter and I used to eat at all the time. Kaitlyn greeted us and got our drinks started. I got hot coffee and my neice got an orange juice. I appreciate the creamer they had neatly placed by the condiments. It was nice not to have them just thrown in a bowl. Little details like that are fantastic. After breezing over the menu, we got our food placed with Kaitlyn. I got the popeye omelet with only 2 eggs instead of 3, cheddar instead of Swiss with no onions or mushrooms. I got fruit instead of bread and potatoes. My neice got the Belgian waffle with strawberries and whipped cream on top with a side of hashbrowns. My omelet was cooked perfectly. It had a generous amount of spinach. We know spinach shrinks really bad when it's cooked and vanishes. You can tell they didn't hold back with the spinach. The cheese was nice and melty in the middle. Even though I asked for my omelet to be 1 egg shy of it's normal 3, I only ate half. It was a hearty omelet. My fruit was ok. It wasn't fresh fruit but I didn't mind. I ate a much as I could. My neice polished half of her huge waffle. It looked tasty with the berries and whipped cream. The side of hashbrowns was no joke. It was such a huge portion! We ate about a third of it and took the rest home to enjoy later. My friend, Bob has done such an amazing job making this place his own. Express Cafe will always be one of Meridian's best breakfast joints. The amount of years it's been around speaks for itself. I'm so proud of Bob and all that he's done. The food was good today. Service from Kaitlyn was fantastic! I'm just sad that it took my close to 9 years to come back. That's going to change and I look forward to having Express Cafe be a part of my day sometime soon. I won't allow another 9 years to pass by."

"Its like a family feel with really nice and courteous people. Awesome customer service and great atmosphere. Lots of friendly folks that just talk to you makes you feel welcome. Food is very ono. Waffles with real blueberries is crispy out side but fluffy and moist on the inside. Link sausage taste like homemade. The biscuits and gravy is very delicious. Half order is a lot. Love the coffee very full rich and flavorful."
