Great burger and fries. Friendly service in a vintage airport diner. Jump off the 5 freeway for a better than fast food burger one block away. "Winter hours are shorter- closes at 2" . Support local!

Thank you Jody and all the other staff for making our visit so memorable. This local classic has been providing comfort food and great homemade pies for 60 years. I met Nancy when she was 80-something years old and that was memorable. My husband loved the pulled pork with onion crisps. I had the classic triple decker with turkey. Half came home with me. Both sandwiches included crisp fries. We both enjoyed a cold beer. Three of the couples dining had also flown in for lunch. Napa and Tracy were homemade for two couples. Big windows offer views of the runway. Comfortable booths and tables. This Willows landmark is definitely worth a visit.

We always stop here on our way to Bend Oregon. Very friendly people who serve great food. The place is not fancy but when you have local law enforcement dining, you know what's up

I Landed at this non- tower airport, that's right next to the highway. Across the street from Walmart, and lucky to catch this cafe while it was still open. We first self- serve, and refueled our aircraft. Once we walked outside the gate, this cafe was walking distance. We were given a table right away. The waitress was very attentive, and gave us some time to look over the menu. Glad we shared a meal, because the Philly cheesesteak was enormous. The sweet potatoes fries was a bonus. I love the chocolate pie, because it reminded me of nation chocolate pies.

Small airports for some reason always have a great place to eat, even if you're not flying in and just driving. This airport cafe has some of the best breakfast around. I had a big omelet served with hash browns and toast. The coffee was good too. Service is prompt and no probs at all. Good place to stop if you're in the area. The food is super scrumptious. Prices average.

We stopped in for lunch at Nancy's on our way home. It's a small cafe in Willows and it was very busy! We could tell right away that this was a well established local place with regulars who dined often. Many people knew each other. Homey. We had a friendly server who took our order a little slowly, but after we ordered food, it arrived very quickly. Everything was as ordered, and two out of three items were wonderful. Generous portions, hot food, presented nicely. As expected. Good value, too. We saw many patrons ordering pie and it looked amazing. They were baked on site and folks loved them. We wish we lived closer to Nancy's so we could return and try more dishes. Thanks for the lunch!

Love this spot. Once it was the cafe of an active runway. Now, peaceful gardens in the front and back are remnants of a quieter time. Good food and service.

Food We ordered breakfast food which is served all day long. We had veggie omelette and pancakes. The eggs were really fluffy and the omelette was flavorful. The pancakes were also fluffy and yummy. The hash browns were crispy on the outside but soft and moist in the inside. This place is a hidden gem. Service Although there was only one server, she was friendly and our orders were taken swiftly and served right away. She also checked on us a few times. She was not only attentive but her attention to detail is on point. Ambiance This place is your typical diner. Not fancy at all but clean. Lots of parking space. It's easy to get off and on the freeway. We will definitely come back.
