What They Say

"Fresh ingredients, meats smoked here in back, vegetables from the community garden, wonderful people working to deliver healthy food to all. It’s the best food in town! We keep coming back for more, and everything is delicious."

Melissa Milton

"The food is phenomenal. Don’t let their small menu fool you; the beauty of keeping it simple is that they execute their dishes well. VERY well. If you have a vegetarian friend, take them to have a house-made bean burger—Legacy’s is the most flavorful I’ve had to date."

Allison Weatherford

"We were in town for Jazz Fest and stumbled upon the Legacy Cafe and were treated to THE BEST BREAKFAST AT AN AMAZING PRICE! Support local. Try the Legacy! Everything is cooked to order and the wait is worth it!"
