Any regular Kansan loves a plate of hearty German food, that’s just a fact. We’re always on the lookout for amazing restaurants, especially if they’re serving up food from other places. We know you’ve heard of Prost and also Beethoven’s #9 serving up amazing German and German-inspired eats, but have you ever heard of this small town diner in Kansas where you can find German food as well? Come check it out!
Welcome to Main Street Cafe, a little spot in tiny Durham, Kansas that's famous for "good ole country cooking" and that Kansas hospitality we all know and love.
On most days, this little cafe serves delicious comfort food and homemade pies to suit anyone's taste. They've been in business for more than a decade, and they've been making homemade sausages for much longer.
They have lunch specials depending on what day of the week you visit, with 1st Mondays and 3rd Thursdays being Monterey Days, Tuesdays serving fried chicken, bierocks for Wednesdays, chicken fried steak on Fridays, and Monterey day every Saturday.
On Friday nights, however, they have a German buffet, including bierocks, sausage, vereneke, and more. You can still enjoy some of your favorite comfort foods as well, for one all-you-can-eat price.
Of course, German food aside, you shouldn't leave without a delicious dessert. They make homemade pies in many flavors, and during their buffet have a pie bar that looks similar to this photo here.
You’ll find Main Street Cafe at 517 S Douglas Ave, Durham, Kansas.
