MCL Restaurant & Bakery West Lafayette

We have gone to MCL since 1970 and the news that they are closing in a week for good made us rush over there to eat one last time for old times sake. Sadly there is validity in why they are closing. Not only are their prices ridiculous but the servings are spread thin, and the meat was tough to cut, let alone eat. The only thing good about MCL was the friendly servers. The decor is old, fading and outdated. There were only about 3 couples beside us in the entire restaurant that use to have wait lines wrapped around the building. It will be such sweet partings of all our good memories of MCL once MCL is gone for good, but it's time has come and parting will not be as melancholy as we had expected. Good bye MCL!! Your great days of yore will be missed.ud83dude41

Since MCL closed up YEARS ago up in South Bend, I was so excited to see that they were open in Lafayette....only to lose that joy once arriving and a note posted on the door stating they were closing their doors on January 19th. Everyone working there was very polite and made me feel at home. The food was delicious & the atmosphere was delightful. It was a wonderful experience to step back in time from when my family would enjoy our dinners and have wonderful conversations. I'm lucky enough to have enjoyed my time spent here today and MCL will always remain special to me.

Choices you don't get at any chains. Food quality is very good. Cost comparable to chains. A shame this location is closing. Cafeterias are worth visiting wherever they may be found.

Typical cafeteria style dining. Visited for a private room dinner/ wake and service was very friendly, attentive and kind. Good experience and would recommend.

This was an exceptional place with excellent food and the employees were spectacular. It saddens me that they are now out of business. Our family will miss them.
