I like this place. They were very accommodating to my plant-based way of eating. Camie was so nice and helpful with our needs that when we return (and we will return) I feel we will have the same respectful experience.
Excellent customer service. Servers are kind and attentivel. I had a veggie omelet and a steak. 🤦🏾♀️🤣Omelet was good but Ive had way way better steaks.
Ordered the full stack of blueberry pancakes, and requested one buckwheat pancake in the stack. The server did her best with the custom order, and the kitchen improvised by making the buckwheat pancake into a blueberry buckwheat pancake. The plain buckwheat would have been too dry and the blueberries actually helped, if youre ordering the plain buckwheat, the pancakes are on the dry side. Buttermilk pancakes were fine. Scrambled eggs were plain. We had a group that included 2 small children, and were seated in a corner booth with an added table. The restaurant stepped up and checked in on us with the manager stopping by to help the table server to make sure we were served well.
Good bacon and cheese omelet and hash browns and toast. Over medium eggs were watery or more accurately the whites were still partially clear, so I no longer order over medium eggs. Pancakes are too rubbery but they taste okay with lots of butter and syrup.
Small, quaint little mom and pop cafe, and very busy! I would recommend not going when youre starving or in a hurry. Its more of a place you would find an older couple sipping on their hot drip coffee reading the newspaper. My food didnt come as I ordered it, but the waitress was very busy and it might have been hard to understand me with my mask on. (Just a slight miscommunication regarding my poached eggs runniness of the yolks). I didnt bring it to their attention because it was so minor and my husband was happy to eat them for me, but I think the waitress would have been happy to change it for me if I asked her to. All over its a very nostalgic feeling unpretentious diner with good ole comfort food.
Went there for the first time an I will not be going back. I understand they are understaffed as many places are, however under cooked food and receiving something close but not what was listed on the menu is Not what I would expect from any restaurant. First my partner and I ordered chicken gizzard to share. I cut one open and it was raw enough 1 see blood starting to come out of where I had cut. I ordered the honey glazed chicken breast burger but when it got to the table it was not. I could see the oil was dirty as the fries were very dark, oily and soggy. The bun with my chicken was greasy and chewy. My chicken was at least cooked but there was not a drop of seasoning not to mention honey glazed. My partner ordered the blue cheese burger, with extra blue cheese. He was told it was crumbles but he got a sauce with blue cheese chunks. Again not what was on the menu. While we were working our way through our food we overheard someone else mention that their pancakes were not cooked! Either way, we have tried the place and wont be back. Sad really, Im usually all about ma and pop kinda places. 😕
A lovely little diner. While exploring a little bit I decided to check the place out, it was very welcoming, the staff (busser & waitresses) were friendly & super casual, it was such a breath of fresh air. And the food was good.Would recommend.
The service was excellent, however the food was very disappointing. Quiche had runny eggs, hash browns soggy and under-cooked. The food was also bland. Did I mention, the service was great?
Great food. Had the Chicken Fried steak. If I lived in the area, I would go there more often.
Great attentive service large portions and Excellent food. These are the ingredients of a long-lasting relationship.I simply cant speak highly enough of this hidden gem.
This is an old place but its clean. People are friendly and the food is pretty good. Its a nice get away.
This was a very pleasant place. Good waitress es and waiters. Very good food.
Always great breakfast. Portion size arent huge but not small either. Im a bigger guy and get plenty full. Have tried a few different breakfast dishes and never been disappointed. Worth a try.
Absolutely wonderful staff and the food was delicious. Id definitely come back the next time Im in the area.
I have walked by this place a millions times abd last week was the first time I had the chance to actually stop in and eat there. I had the yakamush breakfast and it was delicious! Friendly, laidback atmosphere.
Wow!!! Their waitress in the bar was short tempered and down right mean even when she kept forgetting stuff or if you were just trying to get her attention. Someone said she was the manager!?! Good God! I HOPE NOT! If so, ilI cant imagine it staying open much longer. The food was pretty good, but didnt make up for the managers nasty attitude. The owner came out to talk to people..... I hope he doesnt go in the kitchen! He looks like he hasnt bathed or washed his hair in a week or so. Down right nasty! Never again!
Homey feel with excellent service, while understaffed and dealing with a rush, our food still came quickly and we were treated with personal care.
Not expensive. Clean great service and food! I am definitely going back.
Rainbow Cafe has great tasting steak, hash browns, and delicious gravy/bisquits.
Excellent place to eat. Found this nice little restaurant while I was in town. Had breakfast here several times. The food was excellent, the service was stellar. All of the wait staff service each other’s tables constantly so no one is left waiting. I was very impressed.
Bartender hooked me up with a coffee no charge and gave me the wifi password for me to get my work done. Great service! Will be back for brunch
Just a good ole diner. Serves a good breakfast. I love the Rainbow Scramble... yummy!
Food was very delicious and staff were very attentive.
Delicious!!! I had the Orchard salad and it was so good!!! They have a wonderful raspberry vinegaret!!! My daughter had the chicken strips with chips ( I swiped 1) fabulous as well!
Really good food and friendly service. Defiantly a must go to if in the area, even if your not local...make the trek down for great food
The food is yummy, coffee too. Great music radio station!
Nice local place to meet up with family and friends for some greasy diner food! Has a bar in the back.
Have not been there for about 5 years. We had bad service and food then. Went in today did not even stop for food after being greeted by a rude service person. We just left.
I can say I one very picky restaurant eater and specially when it comes to the most important meal of the day BREAKFAST :DThis place will became as today one of my favorite places to go when I travel here in Auburn.Since the first great welcoming coffee smell that you sniff when you open the front door to get inside and the lovely and professional smile from servers there.It did not took more than a minute for us to get seated and start enjoying and waking our senses up whit a delicious warm cup of the house coffee in there ( Heaven, just heaven)The food in my opinion was super good but I wish they chop the home potatoes a little smaller since little ones or little mouths may get a burn from trying to bite a huge chunk of hot potato hehe ( just an idea to think about )Very warm atmosphere, great service, beautiful location and reasonable price .
Have not been there in years...much improved. Good coffee great service
My self and my family 2 sons daughter-in-law, granddaughter had breakfast 3/23/21. The server was very unfriendly, brought food no silverware, hash browns were soggy and oily. Son asked 3 times Tabasco sauce . Had to ask for coffee refill. $80 later. Would of had better at dennys
The food is great. Large portions. Clean tables, cups, utensils. Coffee is good. You can get a whole portion or half. I learned 1/2 portion is best for me. Their Ruben sandwich is the BOMB. Soo good🙂😋😎.
Good old American food and some Mexican dishes
Wonderful crab Benedict! Super nice wait staff.
Second time is was better than the first. I ordered the yakimush.
Yummy fresh food! Large portions.. I had the half veggie omelet (sautéed mushrooms,bell peppers, onions, colby jack cheese and spinach) all fresh. My hubby had the country fried steak and eggs he said the gravy was better than he has had in a while!
Great place. Mom and I enjoyed it.
I like a place with good food and good prices and Rainbow Cafe have both.Is a clean place with attentive servers.
Delicious omelet and bacon. Easy and fast pickup for breakfast. Staff was very friendly and quickly resolved an order mistake. Would definitely come back!
Excellent food you make an online or call in and its ready within 15 minutes lived here for 2 years and didnt know it existed good job
Was fabulous the first time, but the second time was pretty disappointing...
A really nice place to drop by and visit... The people are great and the service is wonderful!
Great bloody Mary! Good service and good food. This was my 3rd visit but will return 😊
Sloppy Joe was the Shitist I ever had
Classic dining experience, everything was great from the staff to the food.
Thank you for buying my moms dinner. Went in planning on paying and some nice person bought our meal.
Good food and good service. I didnt give it 5 stars because the coffee is to weak.
Fantastic eggs benedict that pairs well with their mimosas. Service is consistently good.
Maybe I should go 5 stars.... Its great food and great service, good menu. Theyve been here doing it great for a long time, and it looks like theyre gonna pull through this covid-19 gauntlet, thats been really hard on this type of little place.Id encourage people to patronize this place as much as practical. We dont want to lose places like this, and theyre great anyhow!
Great service and food was delicious

Very good eats and drinks
Awesone tastey food served quick by lovely staff. Thank you!
Good food and fun staff.
Enjoyed my experience, I had the chicken fried steak and it was so good!! Cave wait to try something else when I go back.
Drinks were good but the food was cold, you can substitute think sliced ham for Canadian bacon. The cooks have changed and sadly so has the food
Good times, Great oldies.
Fantastic service and awesome food. Always look forward to going there after work.
Great place. Great cocktails!
The cafe portion is outdated but the lounge is clean and airy. Great food!!
Absolutely horrible!!!! I was chastised and attacked by the meanest bartender ever. Then the owner wouldnt EvenDo anything or talk about it.STAY AWAY
Grest service
Super friendly people. Food was pretty good. Guy with curly hair reminds me of post Malone but he was funny and super nice
One of our favorite places to sit down & eat (before Covid19). Friendly staff, great house made chips, and good sized portions. They always have the place nicely decorated for every season too.
Delish food, best corned beef hash Ive had I a while
This was the first and last time for me. Food was burned and inedible...service was greatly lacking.
Comfortable, pleasant atmosphere, good food. Not fast food, good home type cooking.
Good food, good service
Clean, great service, & excellent food! This cafe/restaurant has much Auburn history & is the oldest single named (never changed) cafe in the state of Washington.Loved by locals...cant go wrong!
Had to eat outside but thay had heaters so wasnt to bad. Food was good and drinks were great.
This place has been open for more than 25 years. Very good food and great atmosphere
Really great food, fries are excellent and they have the Impossible Burger. Also have really good COVID procedures right now. Food is much better than the appearance of the building.
Good drinks!
Good coffee gif good food
Always good bit $$$ o a side of.fruit but all GOOD
Goid food, great service, glad they are back open for inside dining.
Great little place
Good food great service
Service is good and food is good
Went for brunch, the country fried steak and eggs was amazing!! Best I have had in a long time! Pie was amazing too! Ordered a piece for the table to share, then a whole to pick up the next day, just know if you go for ordering a pie, do it a day or 2 in advance so they can get it ordered as they dont stock many to keep them always fresh.
VERY rude waitress...food was just ok...asked for another server and that made a huge difference...some people are to unhappy and angry to deal with the public...we wont returnInteresting that their website email address comes back as undeliverable!!!
Service was very bad, waitress only brought parts of order, was finished with meal when she bought the rest of the order ( not recommended)
Food was awful an service was terrible
Wow. This very un-flashy restaurant served up the most tasty breakfast Ive had in years! We were aiming for the Sunbreak Cafe for breakfast. But found they were not serving breakfast! So we went to the Rainbow Cafe. VERY glad we did. Large menu, not real fancy but everything just tasted GOOD! We will remember this place for sure!
Great drinks great breakfast
I was very happy with the onion rings and sandwiches Ive gotten here but I was disappointed in the fries. Ive only taken out from here but Im hopeful future orders will be better and will update if they do.
The food is always so good! Prices are good, also. Servers are friendly the owner greets diners. If you are in Auburn and hungry go to Rainbow!!
My go-to breakfast restaurant in Auburn.
The only reason I didnt give them a 5 was because I ordered the nachos, and I was only given a small to-go cup of sour cream and a small to-go cup of salsa..the server was very patient and sweet! And though we were still figuring out the bill at closing, she was very kind!
I come here for karaoke every week on Friday and Saturday. One of the only places that start at 8 instead of 9 on fridays. Turtle and DJ are amazing bartenders, and the host, Kev, is the best karaoke host Ive ever had. They all really take care of their customers.
