Audrey's Restaurant

I tried this restaurant in the former location of Colonial Cafe in downtown Batavia, just south of Wilson street on Route 25. I guess the Colonial Cafe reference might not help since they said it's been Audrey's for two years (in March). I went here on Monday, February 23rd and arrived at the restaurant at 12:20pm. I mention the time since when I arrived at the restaurant it was deserted - no one but the hostess/waitress and the cook. This is in direct contrast to Daddio's Diner on Wilson Street that I tried right before this, but there was a wait.
On their menu, they listed a "signature soup of cream of chicken with wild rice", but when I tried to get this with a combo of a pulled BBQ pork sandwich, I was told they actually change around their soups and it wasn't available. Very strange since it's permanently printed on the menu.
I decided to go for a breakfast entree and got the Meat Lovers or Farmers Skillet which was sausage, bacon and ham. It was very good and they did not skimp on the cheese which is great since I really like cheese. A really good meal for $8.01 (including tax, but not tip)!
There were lots of other entrees and they even had a section of the menu dedicated to their crepes. I will be going back to this place and hope they get the business to stay around.
