About our menu
Uptown Cafe and Catering has had the passion for creating fresh, homemade options for you for over 40 years. We make as much as we can in house from scratch. In short, if it comes from a box to your plate, we don’t use it. We appreciate your patience as we cook your special order from scratch to your specifications. Talk to your server about your fresh ideas to make it just the way you like it. We hope you feel at home and enjoy every bite.
