Applebee's Brenham Reviews
The lady that served us was amazing. It was only her and another lady. They both did great.
Had such a wonderful time at Applebees! All the employees were professional and seem to work really well as a team! I sat at the bar and Colby was lovely and attentive. Will definitely be coming back! No complaints!
Nice place to eat at affordable prices. Weekday specials. Colby takes care of his customers!
Karissa was our server for our dine in experience. Everything was outstanding as far as our service and food. Great selection of menu favorites to choose from. Just a great experience overall. Will definitely be returning to try out more menu favorites.
Friendly attitude , and always held it down at the bar. Hayden is an amazing bartender, hope Applebees appreciate how much he takes care of his customers.
Some friends of mine from New Zealand recently visited your fine establishment, and can't stop waxing lyrically about the quality of your fine establishment. It's inspired me to come on here and write a 5 star review. From what I understand it's delicious, with great service, good times, and has encouraged me to start saving for a trip to Texas. All the best x
Had a great time at Applebee’s! Colby was my bartender and he did an awesome job — super friendly, fast, and made sure my drink was always topped off just right. The atmosphere was great and the service really stood out. Ally, the manager on duty, also checked in to make sure everything was perfect — you can tell she really cares about her guests and her team. Definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had at an Applebee’s. I’ll be back for sure!
Applebees Brenham is a dining experience unrivalled in the lonestar state. The Grilled Cheese Cheeseburger was a revelation. A lesser establishment would’ve made a cheeseburger and call it a day. Not Applebees Brenham. The addition of grilled cheese to the cheeseburger was inspired. Our server Nikki was as capable as she was caring and I have just now cancelled my return flights to New Zealand so that I may dine here one more time.
We eat here a few times a month. They are very good to military service veterans offering a 20 percent discount on food items. Alcohol drinks are not included in the discount. Right now they have a special offer on a cheeseburger combo meal with unlimited drinks and fries for $9.99. With the military discount it’s $7.99. That’s unbelievable!
It’s an Applebees so should be fairly predictable but we were kinda hesitant when we saw it’s 2 star rating. Everything was super good though! Not the cheapest but we did the 2 for $35 deal… 2 small entrées and an appetizer. Excellent half rack of BBQ ribs with amazing sauce (request extra for the fries) and the Cajun salmon was cooked perfectly! The spinach artichoke dip is probably the best I’ve ever had with perfect tortilla chips! The atmosphere was nice most of the time (lots of TVs and soft classic rock playing) although a girl at the bar had obviously overindulged… at the bar! The manager and our waiter Jonathan both apologized for her disturbance (not that her stupidity was their fault) but it wasn’t a big deal. Not a fancy 5 star restaurant but I probably wouldn’t be eating there if it was! Overall we had a great, relaxing meal with fast and super friendly service and it definitely deserves more than 2 stars!
Food is always good and the staff at this restaurant far out ranks most of the restaurants around.

Applebees in general has just gone down from my experience. I guess with everything being so high they have also cut down on certain things and you can definitely tell in there food . It's just not…
Enjoyed the night. Bar tender was great and attentive. Cheap drinks and good food. Will be back.

It was a let down for us. Service was great and they had a nice atmosphere but food really wasn't all that good. Small portions for the price. And no one finished their plate. Since they didn't really like it.
March 2023 This location seems to have issues with food quality/quantity. Came here after a long weekend camping at Lake Somerville. I ordered a 3 kid's meals, & 2 adult meals. & one monthly drink special. 1st off the adult drink was very weak...like there was no alcohol in the drink at all. It was like I was just drinking the drink mix. I have been to a few Applebee's so I know how the drinks should be. I also wanted a meal item but they were out of it. The food that I order was lacking alot. My tomato basil soup was cold & looked like it was sitting on the counter for a while. It was chunky not smooth & it didn't have much toppings on it.There was no chicken in my wrap. Maybe like two tiny little pieces of it some where in the wrap. For one of the kid's meal I ordered yogurt & strawberries but was only given strawberries. I asked where the yogurt was and I was then informed that they were out of yogurt. Ok when was I gonna be informed, I would have had my son pick something else. I asked for at least a little more strawberries to balance out not having yogurt. (She had to go ask the manager for approval) Why would you let me order strawberries and yogurt if you didn't have yogurt. You could have come back to tell me that there was no yogurt & asked if I wanted something else. Nope they just brought out the strawberries like that's all that was supposed to come with the meal. She informed me after the yogurt drama that the food truck had not yet arrived, so they were lacking a few things. The service was decent and we didn't have to wait for refills. I guess she did the best she could with the lack of food they had July 2023 The service was the same. There was no food quality/quantity issues this time. I ordered tomato basil soup with a grill cheese & it came out good. Soup was smoooth this time. I ordered the $6 drink special. I asked for the new Tropical Mana Margrita, (which was yellow) but it wasn't until I was halfway done with the drink that the drink she brought me was blue. So I'm assuming that the drink she brought me was the Blue Bahama Mama. Either way the drink was good. BUT the only issue is I wanted the $1 dessert for after my lunch order. I was told it had to be the regular price of $1.99 for the dessert because I didn't order the dessert before 5pm. I asked about dessert after I finished my meal & it was 5:10p. But it was only 99 cents extra so I didn't mind paying for it, I really wanted a brownie for dessert. Update: Other than the small issues it was an ok experience. I'll keep the 3 star review I had.

We came in for dinner. Our food was very good and our server was very nice. But when we got the bill of $92 for 2 meals was way overpriced. Never been to a place and got up charged for every little thing. We went to Texas Roadhouse last week and had a a lot more food and was still only $70. We won’t be back. I’m not going to pay these high prices for changing the sides that come on the menu.
I would like to come here more often but the bartender does the absolute bare minimum every time I sit at the bar, if not less. The music is blasting and every time\n I can barely hear myself think a…

Ordered Ceaser salad with lunch. Manager (Kim) delivered the food. The salad was iceberg lettuce. Told her that was not a Ceaser salad, it was iceberg lettuce. Kim replied that was the way they make it here and walked away. Waitress (Norma) checked in and we told her about the salad. Kim came up as we were talking and said to redo the salad. It came out partly Romain, partly iceberg. In summary Norma was great, Kim needs training in customer service.
Beer glass was dirty and had a lingering odor. Waiter forgot our appetizer even though we ordered that first. Food took long.
Roaches! Went out for drinks and dinner. Sitting at the bar had a few drinks and an appetizer, ordered our last round of drinks and was getting ready to order dinner. All of sudden a German roach is running down the bar towards my husband arm, another customer to our left grabs a napkin and smooshes it on the bar. Leaves it there and continues eating his food. Said customer was either a regular or acquaintance of the bartender and didn't skip a beat. Seemed like that was normal. I was disgusted. We asked for the check and left. Didn't finish our last drinks and obviously left hungry without dinner. This place need a major deep clean and twice a week pest control.
Uber Eats delivered my cheeseburger. The worst I've ever had! It was soggy and greasy and tasteless. The fries were the same and the shake was tasteless and watery I certainly won't recommend this to anyone. A very bad experience!
Decided to do delivery today and I have never been so pissed off either food! First off it didn’t look like the picture and on top of that we paid for extra meat and cheese but look like they added one tablespoon of extra. No condiments for my son’s salad…so it was dry like the parking lot! I paid for dressing and never received any. Now let’s get to the desert that looked like dried fruitcake. If my vehicle was running I would have took it back and asked for a refund! They never will get my service again! I spent good money too 🤯
My wife and I stopped here for lunch at 3:00pm recently. The place was empty except for one other couple. My wife ordered the Chicken Salad and I ordered the Chicken Sandwich. We waited approximately 25 minutes for our meals to be delivered. During that timeframe our server never came back to the table to apologize for the long wait. My wife's Chicken Salad was fair in taste. My Chicken Sandwich was overcooked. The chicken patty was dry and overcooked. We have no plans to return. There were too many disappointments with this eatery.
