Katie's Café & Carryout

Katie's Café, 306 Peoria St., Washington, had me at first bite with their cream cheese muffins. These things are GREAT slightly warmed with a cup of coffee.
Katie's serves up breakfast, lunch and dinner in a quaint location decorated with nice homey curtains, warm yellow walls and furnished with antique tables and chairs.
They have several homestyle dinner choices, like beef and noodles and meatloaf, available for carryout as well for those times when you feel like having comfort food, but just don't feel like cooking it.. You can call in your order and they'll have it ready for you.
One of my other favorites there is the garden salad served with an herb roll, because they have the best ranch dressing I have ever been served in a restaurant. The herb roll is good, too, but they serve it with fake butter, which I can do without.
Friday nights Katie's serves entrées like salmon and prime rib. We tried the prime rib, and it was no F. Scott's, but it was of course less expensive, and closer to home.
Katie's also has a coffee bar and several brews each day, and a wonderful glass case full of cookies and muffins to tempt you. I have tried many of the cookies including the chocolate chip, thumbprints and peanut butter ones, but my favorite is the snickerdoodle.
Katie's does not serve dinner on Saturday nights and is closed on Sundays.
