The chicken fried steak and the hamburger were great. Love the small town restaurants. The service was good, and it was a packed night. The chocolate pie 👍🏼. Looking forward to trying the breakfast next time we come through to eat.
Cattlemans is spot on every meal I've had there. Everythings delicious, the servers are pros and treat you like family and try their pies!! Great place
We love their burgers and chicken fried chicken with generous portions of sides like sweet potatoes fries and pinto beans. I love that I always have lunch left overs for next day! The staff are well attentive and always cheerful no matter the weather...stormy, hot, or freezing. This is one of those little secret gems in Texas.
Great little place in Blue Ridge. I had to go with the Chicken Fried Steak. It lived up to expectations and lots of sides to finish it up. I will definitely be back.
I come a few times a month & it's phenomenal. Today has been awful for me due to health issues I'm having. It ended with more bad news regarding my youngest sons health then a 6 foot fall at school leaving several injuries. Flat out AWFUL day. I called a order in & upon picking it up started conversing with Kim, just slightly venting about my day. They were so busy, she didn't have time to be my counselor & give me any advice. She (WAS) a stranger to me, outside of Cattlemans. She obviously could see the amount of stress in my eyes or could tell I had been crying all day. Her simple act of kindness & compassion literally just restored my faith in humanity. Not only were her words genuine but she gave one of the best hugs that made me feel like everything might be okay and she bought my dinner! This was the most unexpected yet humbling thing to happen today!! ❤️ I just had to thank you! I love this community, God bless you sweet ma'am!!
holy mother mary, the food was too good to slow down enough to take a picture. the El Gordo omelette was absolutely perfect with crispy shredded hasbrowns and some buttered toast. the short stack was perfectly cooked and the syrup was sooooooooooo good. the coffee was delicious and the service was impeccable. i love eating at local spots when i pass through towns and if i ever find myself in this area again i’ll be sure to stop here to eat again. 10/10 isnt a high enough rating in all honesty.
My grandparents used to take me here as a child all thru the 70s and 80s. Now I take my own kids!!! Great chicken fried steak and chocolate pie!!!! Love it!!!
Tonight was our first visit, excellent home cooking type restaurant. Great service. Don't miss the pies! We got coconut and it was great.
Rustic style restaurant with good old fashioned southern homecooking menu. My family and I come a few times per year just to order the chicken fried steak (best in north Texas) and a slice of pie. The pies have a fluffy thick layer of perfectly toasted meringue on top. 😁 Go try their hearty portioned meals. You will not be disappointed!!
This is a really cool family-owned business that has been in business for a long time. It's worth the drive to get some fantastic homemade cooking, everybody should give it a try. Also, don't forget to try the chocolate pie that has a delicious 3 -4 in meringue!
Just an hour north of town—half the price and 10x more delicious—you’ll find one of the best steak meals around. The steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right. Add in homemade mashed potatoes and all the fixings… it’s the real deal for under $20‼️😋👍 I didn’t even have room for the pie. They have coconut meringue. Definitely a hole-in-the-wall country cafe.. Well worth the drive.
This place is amazing. The food was hot and the quantity itself is great. We're new to the area so its really nice to find a place that serves this good! The people were really nice as well. Will definitely recommend and come back! Dont let the looks and area fool you. Its an amazing place!
This a good old-fashioned Texas cafe - the kind that was prevalent 30 years ago. Expect traditional Southern favorites like Chicken fried steak and chopped steak. I been here a couple of times and both times the service was excellent. The tots with cheese and chili are great and suitable for a meal on their own. The hamburger is served on a grilled bun ( the little things count) and there are many option available. This cafe is an infulttreat when I’m in the area!
We wanted to try this place based on a recommendation from a friend, and made the drive from Anna to check it out. We we not disappointed - the breakfast was amazing! The food tasted like a home-cooked meal, and the prices were reasonable for the amount of food we received. It's definitely been added to our list of breakfast date spots. Can't wait to go back for dinner & try their infamous chicken fried steak!
If you are looking for some good homestyle cooking with a friendly wait staff. Come check them out! The food is great and the customer service is excellent! We have now made this our go to spot for dinner about every 2 weeks. Taylor has been our waitress almost every dine in and she is very pleasant and attentive to serving. Which is another reason why we are returning customers.
Old style American food. But I felt like less seasoned chicken fried steak 🥩. And my Burger was burnt. May it’s one of those days that chef wasn’t in a good touch….but that should not be an excuse… service was awesome atmosphere was great. Old school establishment about of locals were having brunch…
My husband and I shared the Ribeye that came with 3 sides, it was enough food for two people. The ribeye was tasty but a little on the tough side.
Fun place. Great pie for dessert. Stars off for the Chicken Fried Steak. Was too thick and really chewy. Sides were good though.
1. Waited 40 minutes for a sandwich at lunch time. People who walked in after us were almost done with their food when we got ours. 2. It would have been nice if after 20 minutes they could of apologized for the long wait and told us what was going on. Instead, at 40 minutes the waitress finally came to our table and said the wait was due to not having the fries ready. When told that this wasn't good customer service she defensively replied that it wasn't her fault. (We still tipped her 20% because she was young and appeared to be still learning.) 3. Food was average. I could tell the fries were not homemade so not sure why they took 40 minutes. 4. The previous customer's glass condensation was right where I put my arm. Not the worst thing but it was not pleasant getting wet. 5. The place doesn't have good air circulation so the smell of fried food lingers on your clothing when you leave. 6. Will not be returning.
