This place always has what I need, and the staff is wonderful! The owner is such a beautiful heart loving person. Her name is Lynn, she is having some medical problems, so lets keep her in our prayers ...

The cuisine at Ridge Market Cafe is an unexpected dining pleasure. Oh my goodness...the diversity of the menu on a daily basis is incredible, I want to try every single item and God-willing I just might! The down-to-basics Cheeseburgers, Cubans, Egg Salad on Rye, Onion Rings are true comfort food... bringing back lip-licking memories straight from Mom's kitchen! My favorite so far is the Chicken Parmesan nestled atop Fettucine Alfredo served up with a piping hot slice of buttery garlic bread...although the Chicken Curry makes a mighty tasty treat too! The new owners and chefs are so welcoming and eager to share their culinary delights, this new Cafe right here in Buckhead Ridge, FL has quickly become my favorite treat to myself...time and time again.

Recently, re-opened under new management since our dear friend Lynn passed away. The new management, however, are no strangers to us here in Buckhead Ridge, the prior owners of the Sunoco station across the street from Ridge market. They have proven themselves to provide great service, fair prices and always dependable hours. Their updated menus are available on their Facebook website under Ridge market. We’re happy that they’ve stepped in and are continuing a Buckhead Ridge family tradition.

Wonderful store, girls are very friendly, you will always get a friendly hello when you walk in the store. Also, the food is awesome, hamburgers are great and they have the best Cuban sandwiches around. I highly recommend Ridge Market.

Restaurant had very good food. Friendly customer service with a smile. Very unique items for various uses that no one else has. Only store in Buckhead Ridge with meat and produce for sale. Owner slices, grounds, and packages own meat. Best hamburger and sausage around. No fillers or bi products. Better than any grocery stores meat and well priced. Hamburger is ground from chuck and is 6.99 a pound. They also use their own ground up burger in the restaurant which is open 7am to 2pm. Also have the best Cuban sandwiches around.

Small cafe corner store had a good vibe when driving by. Stopped for a breakfast burrito. Did not disappoint. Everyone was really friendly there! Price was reasonable. Only recommendation might be to unblock the window area a bit -- felt a little closed in when there might be a good way to clear the things covering the window. There is a nice view of trees across the street, but I couldn't see them from inside. I always prefer a view with food, when possible. Just a thought. 5 stars.

Today is Saturday, March 8th, 2025 and if you hurry you can feast on the absolute "Best HOMEMADE Butter Chicken Curry" !!! AND The entire meal is affordably priced at 13.99 [i purchased for myself to eat and to go for our family friend, Sam, to eat after his day of working. This is one of his favorite Meenah dishes,] Who is Meenah??? ... Meenah and her husband run Ridge Market here in Buckhead. And boy o boy ... she can cook !!! You are in for a treat !!! Last night, she prepared all the ingredients and woke up very early to let it slowly cook for over an hour and a half ... to enhance the flavor of her spices. Truly, truly ... I kid you not ... you will enjoy your meal. They only serve til 2:00 pm ... so if you are hungry ... be sure you don't miss out. Enjoy !!!
