Top Review: “This food was amazing. The staff were great. And for going in at noon on a Sunday we only had a 15 minute wait despite them being absolutely slammed. I had a cornbread waffle with caramel apple tooping and my husband had a country fried steak skillet. The menu was a little overwhelming at first but it was very well put together. Definitely will be going back.” – Mimi L.

Top Review: “We had breakfast waiting for our daughter who was running the 1/2 marathon. Just want to say we are from Chicago and we thought our breakfast and coffee were amazing. Husband and boyfriend had biscuits and gravy. My husband cooks and bakes so he knew the biscuits were homemade. I had the Feta cheese, spinach and mushroom breakfast sandwich–so delicious. And prices were so reasonable. Love the neighborhood feel. If you live or visit Fort Wayne check this place out. SO much better than hotel breakfasts. And their coffee is great” – Kris R.

Top Review: “I was going to be driving through Fort Wayne, and asked a friend to pick a spot for an upcoming Sunday brunch. With no hesitation he said Proximo and made reservations. Today I drove in from Michigan and met up at Proximo. After we were seated, my friend says to me, “we are going to split an order of banana bread French toast before your meal. Trust me.” I looked all over the menu and realize he was ordering this French toast off-menu. We both also ordered the steak and eggs. The French toast came out and I was beyond blown away. I’ve had banana bread French toast before but this was almost indescribable. The french toast was very dense and rich. The mixed berries were amazing. The steak and eggs was also amazing, perfectly cooked ribeye with garlic butter, perfectly fried potatoes and 2 sunny side up eggs. I couldn’t have dreamed a better brunch! I don’t know when I’ll be back in Fort Wayne, but I will definitely stop at Proximo.” – Russ

I got what the server recommended and I got a huge breakfast; potatoes, eggs, bacon and pancakes! They put blueberries in my pancakes and chocolate chips in my friends, due to our request! They were accommodating and kept our drinks full! The prices were super reasonable as well! I would definitely come back to this cafe for breakfast! I want to try their lunch out as well!” – Domenica D.

Top Review: “This place is truly delightful! I’m also surprised it doesn’t have any reviews yet. Located in the lobby of the gorgeous Bradley Hotel, they offer coffee, breakfast, and brunch. Prices are reasonable and they have a variety of price points. Our server was lovely and the food was delicious! No designated parking for folks who aren’t staying at the hotel, so street parking/the pay to park lot on Columbia street are your best options!” – Megan M.
