While visiting Plant City chose the Whistle Stop Cafe for lunch and was not disappointed. Cafe had convenient parking on the street as well as a small lot adjacent. There was not a wait on a Saturday and sat in a comfortable booth and experienced very friendly, efficient service. We tried sandwiches on their own fresh baked bread and the potato soup special. Our half sandwiches were the size of an entire one from other restaurants. The food menu is extensive and in my estimation would equate to old fashioned home cooking, fresh and tasty. Our waiter took time to explain the menu and choices and guided us to their signature food. The cakes looked fantastic although did not sample on this trip. My husband enjoyed his root beer float, the potato soup was very good and my cherry crush of seltzer and cherry syrup was a nice change. While dining there was live piano music and we even got to see a train pass as next to the tracks. The sandwich and soup combo with potato chips was 9.50 a person and. much better than any fast food. There was a play area with toys int he front of the shop as well. I would visit again and highly recommend.

Delicious food, friendly staff, great atmosphere and dog friendly. They brought our guys water. Very helpful with menu selections. Definitely will be back the next time we are in Plant City.

Very friendly and happy staff, delicious sandwiches with fresh made bread. Wonderful atmosphere set in a historic pharmacy. A man was playing the piano on a Wednesday during lunch. The Whistle Stop Special is a hot sandwich with corned beef and roast beef on fresh baked NY style rye bread. It was great.

Traveling between Orlando and Tampa we decided to stop for lunch and the Whistle Stop came up on Yelp. To be honest, it was not our first choice but the Universe decided it was our lunch spot. I am so happy we did. We each had the Whistle Stop Special which came with a bag of chips and a pickle, added unsweetened iced tea and one slice of Black Forest cake. OMG, people! The sandwich was lean corned beef, roast beef, lettuce, tomato and mayo topped with mozzarella cheese served hot on your choice of bread. We chose honey whole wheat but could have had white Italian or NY rye. The cake was homemade and about 4 inches high. This did not disappoint at all. Sandwich and tea was 11.00 each person and 4.00 for the cake. Service was as wonderful as the food. The staff was friendly and cheerful. I want to go back there and I seldom want to repeat places. I forgot to mention there was someone playing the piano as well. There were vegetarian options but I cannot speak for those.

This place not only has great food but amazing service! All of the people working there are amazing sweet people and it's impossible to leave without a smile on your face. 10/10 would recommend. They play amazing music and even have professional pianist playing. The place has an amazing atmosphere and is very interesting! It's so cool looking at all the old cool vintage things and the moving model train circling the room above you. The wait for your food is almost non-existant, at least it felt like there was no wait. The sweet kind lady that was always smiling and talking to us made the wait for our food go by so fast and the wait was only about 2-5 minutes but it felt like much less! This place was definitely an experience! I recommend the cuban sandwich was delicious!

Great atmosphere, wonderful food, but the customer service was outstanding! This is a must visit place in a historic building. Not only were we welcomed warmly, we were treated like long time family friends. The food was hot, fresh, and tasted wonderful. To top it off, even though we visited for lunch, there was live piano music. They also had a small play area for kids. I can't say enough good things about this place. We drove an hour to eat there and will gladly do it again and again! Loved this place!

This place is so amazing! Felt comfortable. We enjoyed our food and the live piano performance! Their pulled pork sandwich was delicious. I also tried the Mac and cheese bacon burger and that was also so good. Can’t wait to visit them again!

Simply lovely! What a wonderful place. Located in the old Herring Drug Store (1896). Address is located downtown Plant City at 102 South Collins. Homemade breads. Homemade soups and a well-rounded large menu. Family owned and run. It is a wonderful surprise to have in historic downtown. I hope you stop by and support this family business. Be sure to read the hours. Operate on Tuesday through Friday 11:00 a.m. to 3:30, on Saturday, 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. And every third Saturday of the month there's a classic car show and they run typically longer hours.
