The Wildflower Cafe is a delightful farmhouse restaurant in Mason that does indeed have an impressive wine selection and is also one of the most enchanting dining destinations in our area.

The beautiful and quaint interior of the Cafe is welcoming and intimate. This is not a new, modern restaurant, but rather one that is filled with character and charm.
