Nudy's Cafe Promise:
I'm honored to be part of the community and welcome you and your family to Nudy's Cafe. We are dedicated to providing a handcrafted, neighborhood dining experience. Thank you for choosing us. Our promise is to make you feel welcome, nourished and excited about coming back because of our excellent service and freshly-made great food. I take my promise very seriously, as I learned the business from my father's restaurant in Villanova, Pa at 12 years old and have owned and been operating my own restaurant Nudy's Cafe since 1979. This is the only business I've ever known. It's literally in my blood, and I still have the same love and passion for making people feel as special as I watched my father do as a young boy. I promise! - Ray Nudy
