The Hostess Alison makes you feel she is being racist. This morning me and husband came in for breakfast. We loved this place but after today definitely not going back. When we came there was a couple before us but Alison decided to sit the 3 parties of 3 that came in after us. Not very nice and I didn't expect that from 1431 Cafe read more

Great place to eat!! Loved the Coffee, Food, Service!!! The staff were so kind and helpful. Explained the specials. I can't wait to go back and try something else!! read more

I can't say anything bad about 1431 Cafe. I love their breakfast and lunch items. The service is amazing. Today we had "Shelly", like dinning at your favorite sisters house. She knows the menu well and recommends the best choices. This is comfort food without a doubt. Chicken fried "everything"! Ok, full disclosure, we are picky diners. My wife is allergic to "Bell Peppers", so I always hate to watch for that on menu items. I like my food hot, my toast brown like me, and everything served within a reasonable time. But most important, value for my meal. Doesn't have to be cheap, but not pricey for no reason but because you can. 1431 accommodates me we'll. As the picture shows I had the pork chops breakfast. I couldn't decide on fries or grilled. Shelly helped me out tremendously and recommended one of each. Brilliant! I shared with my wife who had the Biscuits and Gravy. Biscuits were so soft and fluffy. Can't wait to visit again. Michael C. - Georgetown read more

Awful people. Awful service. This place should be called "we don't do that!" We asked if we could sit in a booth and put the baby in a high chair. "No, we don't do that!" Our guests were literally parking and we said can we go ahead and sit down? "No, we can't do that!" Saw another customer come up and complain about similar issues, they dismissed her! Then they refused to seat us at all! So we left, and went and had a FABULOUS meal at First Watch down the street. #unimpressed #notkidfriendly read more

OMG!! Has this place gone down!! Food is SO mediocre !! Hash browns were stale!! Did not know hash browns could be stale!! Found a hair in my hash browns and On my ham!! The service was even worse!! A sassy teeny bopper just adds to yr meal!' The decor is ancient!! Red curtains!! NOT a smart move!! Overall!! NOT GOOD!! This place needs a restaurant makeover from food to decor and everything in between!! read more

We came on a Thursday morning and it was fairly busy, we got seated right away though. I had the 2 eggs your way, while my partner had the biscuits and gravy. The portions were huge for the price! The employees are nice and are efficient at their job, we will eventually be back. read more

Finally got around to trying this place and I regret not visiting sooner. Our party ordered chicken fried chicken and the chicken pot pie daily special. Both were delicious. The cafe potatoes were full of flavor and the French toast is to die for. We were a little disappointed with the sausage size in the pigs in the blanket, and probably wouldn't order that again. Can't wait to try other food on future visits though. The service was excellent and food came out quickly. This was on a weekday so that probably helped. read more

Why on earth do people come to this restaurant? Seriously. This is some of the poorest service and mediocre food ive experienced on my 48 years on this planet. Ordered a coffee. Mug is covered in food. No spoon. Get new coffee. Food comes. Gave me toast- no butter, no jelly. Sausage is so overcooked that my 13 year old daughter was laughing because we were banging it on the plate and i couldnt get my fork to penetrate it. My daughters eggs benedict- the benedict sauce was completely broken and pools of oil were floating on top. They also dont use real english muffins. Its the cheap weird things that are more like a hamburger bun. $50 breakfast and it was awful. Why people come here, i have no idea. Update- according to the owners response, you would think the manager was not informed, however, that assumption would be wrong. Which doesnt surprise me, considering her response to other negative reviews. This place has great pie. Thats it. Being a mom and pop restaurant is not a pass for overpriced bad food and less than mediocre service. I can spend the same and get much better elsewhere. Which is what we plan on doing moving forward. Not worth it. If youre reading this- go to snooze- waaaaaay better read more

Let me preface this by saying, I was not looking for a free meal, but I also was not expecting to have the experience I had while eating at 1431 Cafe in Cedar Park Texas (601 E Whitestone Blvd) on Tuesday 5/20/2025, 11:50am. Our waiter, Anthony, was wonderful and very accommodating. I ordered my favorite, liver and onions. The food arrived and the liver looked very overcooked. It actually tasted crunchy and burned. Anthony took it back to the kitchen and ordered me a replacement dish of the hamburger steak. A very unkempt women approached our table, the "manager on duty, Rebecca". She did not introduce herself and just blurted out "What's wrong over here?" I proceeded to tell her the liver was burned. She said "no it wasn't, and that's how it's supposed to be". Then she said "what was wrong with the salad?" I told her it was brown and wilted. She again said "no it wasn't". At that point I cancelled the order for the hamburger steak, stating that if they had not started cooking it already I wanted to cancel it. She said "fine" and walked away. I was then presented with the bill for the entire order, which i never ate and had been taken back to the kitchen earlier. Rebecca said I had to pay because we were given the food. I told her I wasn't paying for something I didn't eat and she said if I didn't pay she would call the police. I told her to do so then because I wasn't paying. I tipped Anthony with cash as none of this was his fault. We got up to leave. Rebecca very abruptly followed us to the door while talking to someone on her cell phone and told me that I was not welcome in the 1431 Cafe again and to never return. I told her not to worry, I would never come back. I was appalled at this incident and most definitely at her behavior. She was very aggressive and intimidating. I honestly was scared for my safety. In my 65 years of life I have never been treated in this manner. Not only will I never step foot into 1431 Cafe, i will make sure to "spread the word" to all those I know. read more

I hadn't been to 1431Cafe in probably 14 years. It wasn't impressive then and it definitely isn't now. A friend invited me, so I went. We went at 1:00 and we both ordered chicken fried steak, I ordered over medium eggs with mine. It took a really long time(over 30 minutes)to come out, 3 other tables came after us and had already been served, but we weren't too concerned. Finally the food came out and my egg whites were still really runny, so the server took them back. I waited another 10 minutes and the eggs were cooked over hard, the yolk was almost hard boiled. So, I just decided to skip the eggs. I ordered a side of toast specifically to dip in the yolks in because I already had a pancake with my order. The server sent the manager over to talk to me. The manager, who had a scowl on her face came over. She was very abrasive and unfriendly. I told her about my experience with the length of time and the egg situation and how I only ordered toast for the eggs. She said sorry about the eggs, but she wouldn't take the toast off and that the order in which we were seated and ordered our food had nothing to do with the order of when it's served. She explained, rudely I might add, that it depended on what we ordered. I agree to a point. We ordered our food before a couple of these tables had been sat and some were bigger parties than us, but it wasn't a huge deal, I just mentioned it. It's almost as if she was geared up for a confrontational conversation. It was just disappointing with how unfriendly, unwelcoming she was, she looked and seemed completely unapproachable. The food was not great, nothing that I feel like I would go back for, the server was very sweet, but the way the manager acted, and the dingy, dark environment is the reason I will not return. I was right 14 years ago, not great. I know that for forever, they were one of the only local breakfast places, but now we have so many other options at the same price point. I'm only giving it a 2 star because our server was so nice. read more

Since the new management, we have seen the quality of some foods go down. It seems all the breakfast items are still very good, but one of our favorites has always been the patty melts. Today it appears to be some sort of preformed processed patty of some kind. Ir certainly did not have the texture of ground beef as before. You could see quite obviously it had been preformed, maybe even precooked, but when asked, the waitress said it was hand formed. No way! Really hate to see this lowering of quality, just lost our place to go to get good tasting patty melts as in years past. read more

First off this was my very first time eating here and I was sooo excited because its my anniversary and I had heard so many good things. Now to the craziness-- I will admit I called her Honey but I am older and southern this upset her- I apologized and she got ruder. Brandy also informed me that if she was "rude" then I had a pretty good go at her establishment. Such a Peach-BRANDY THE SO CALLED "MANAGER" NEEDS A DEMOTION I have never been treated so rudely!! She told us the food "doesn't travel well" and they hate online orders so keep that in mind for the future, even though we live at Quest directly across the street, like What? We ordered ONLINE over 50.00 worth of breakfast this morning. We got 3 meals 2 came with drinks (no drinks, wrong sides, 1/2 the condiments) and one was just French toast and bacon (didn't get the bacon). All and I mean ALL the meals were wrong and when we went back to get our order corrected or refunded. BRANDY let us know her name after she yelled My name is BRANDY! at me that we could have a refund we will see how that goes. 0/10 I DO NOT RECOMMEND. BRANDY needs a attitude adjustment or a new job. UPDATE- Brandy responded to this review but never did send that refund she mentioned in her comment. I have NEVER had a response so fast. But she wasn't rude? I really hope she didn't remove it so all can see how "professional" she is pretending to be. STILL 0/10 STILL would NOT recommend + the refund that she offered in person and on her little comment/food was returned/things were IN FACT wrong and missing- they gave no REFUND. Over $50.00 gone! Thanks for the response BRANDY all you did was prove my point, and allow the world to see you have no idea what punctuation, customer service or kooth mean. read more

We dined in for brunch on March 21. 2026, and we were not pleased with getting an appetizer of beignets, w/ dirty plates and a piece of raw okra covered in powder sugar as well. When main meals came out we found a hair in the Hollaindaise sauce in eggs benedict and a dirty coffee glass, as well as receiving a wrong order and to still pay $90+ when they "took off meals". Over all not great for first time eating here, wait-staff was very nice but something must've been wrong with the management. read more

NEVER GOING BACK. The experience at this restaurant was soured by the incredibly rude hostess (short hair and glasses), whose cold and extremely rude demeanor set the tone for the entire visit. Despite the food being ok (closer to subpar), the unwelcoming attitude and condescending behavior from the staff made it nearly impossible to enjoy the meal. I would not recommend returning unless you're prepared for an unpleasant greeting and service that leaves much to be desired. Oh and the "manager" (female). If it was my restaurant let's say she would not be working there anymore. She is soooooo rude. read more

The food was fine and the service excellent, but I take issue that the tip is figured on the total bill, including tax. In fairness, this is posted on the bill, but it seems an unfair way to earn a few pennies more. read more

An update on my earlier review is in order. I gave a review I felt was accurate for me as I experienced. I'm sorry if the owner didn't like my review but I stand fast on my review. I never asked for a refund or an exchange of my order due to being told the kitchen was closed after I had ordered. I never stated that I was waiting for a prolonged time before being seated. As you say I ate all my food is absolutely not true and the photos I posted was what was left as you could see I had already cut up my meat. I have absolutely no reason to lie or make up a story to get liver or a pork chop free. The owner reversed the charges totally on his own and then came back to berate me as a liar. It speaks volumes of this business and the owner. Update Owner has since charged my credit card a second charge of $14.96 because he was not happy with my review. read more

Yesterday was our first time at 1431 Cafe. When we entered, several employees welcomed us. Our waitress was AWESOME!!! She was extremly friendly (reminded me of a small town), had a smile the whole time, checked on us a lot, made jokes, and was just downright sweet! The food - OMG! Is sooooo good! And you get a ton of food. I had to take mine home and I ate it for lunch and dinner. When we return, we will be asking for Adrian. Thank you for great service and great food. :) read more

Come hungry! With options like chicken-fried bacon (just as decadent as it sounds) and huge portions, you won't be disappointed. This place offers all your standard diner breakfast fare plus some fun things like the bacon. I'm always delighted when a diner offers fruit so I was happy with subbing my fruit cup for potatoes, but my husband was sorry not to find shredded hash browns among the options (I thought their flavorful potatoes looked awesome though). Tons of Benedict options for the hollandaise and gravy lover. Dining room is straight ahead with booths and tables (or belly up to the bar). I've seen a line out the door even on weekdays. I've found the servers to be friendly and attentive. read more

Just to piggy back on this establishments reply. No I wasn't looking for something to complain about. Yes I did complain - the food was sent back and still came back out not good. No the food was not remade because the same indentation in the mashed potatoes when I sent it back was the same mashed potatoes that came out. The others in my group enjoyed their food. This is a honest review and you should take it as such in the spirit it was given. Sometimes you have a bad day but I stand by my comment that the mashed potatoes and gravy was like plastic! The liver and onions were good but would have been better if the food had have been hot! And too boot now reading over the reviews, the owner cannot take criticism and likes to lash out at those who leave less than stellar reviews read more

1431 Cafe - American Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

This was my first time dining at this restaurant. First impression was that is the kind of place that has regulars where the servers know you by sight, if not by name. Definitely warm and inviting, with booths and tables spread throughout the dining room. Our server was great about asking about food ingredients when I mentioned my food intolerances. My catfish was tender and delicious with perfectly crispy crust. The sliced tomato was ripe and juicy. I didn't eat the fries, since they turned out to be breaded, but the server brought me a bowl of fried potato squares that were cooked perfectly. I would come back again and bring my kids, who would appreciate the down home style cooking here. read more

Spent the last 24 hours preparing for a colonoscopy and after having been put under at the center in Leander we chose 1431 Café to have breakfast. The Medical Center had given me an ice cold Coke to drink to help me recover from being put under. We got to the 1431 Café probably was going to spend about $40 and was told by some young lady. She was young that you could not bring a Coke in . My wife explained that I just had a medical procedure and that the doctors office had given me the Coca-Cola to drink, but the server said that you could not bring your own sodas in and I said well I at least want to finish this one before I order another one she said that was policy. Goodbye, so we walked out never to come by again, they've lost our business forever and they lost a $40 ticket at least today. So they lost $40 and they didn't get the benefit of selling a Coca-Cola. They have their policy and where did it get them. We vote with our dollar and I don't recommend anybody go to 1431, their prices are way too high and their attitude sucks. read more

We have been going here for years. Over the last few months something has definitely started to change - and not in a good way. The food quality seems to have changed, the overall attitude of the place seems off, and a lot of the long time staff members we have grown to love are no longer around. Ownership hasn't changed so my only thought is that ownership has decided to take his business in another direction - not a direction that gives you the small town feel and good food for a good price unfortunately. We also noticed what appears to be a camera and microphone hanging from the ceiling in the bar area and I don't know about you, but that seems a little weird to me. We will not be returning. Thanks for the memories. read more

How about a 180 degree turnaround. On our last visit, about a year ago, my hash was overcooked and dry, Plus 1's omelet came with raw onions and her side of potato's were served cold. I chalk up our last visit as an anomaly. I'm glad we returned as our breakfast was FabUlous! I come here for their corn beef hash and it was 5 stars. The hash was not overcooked and dry as it is sometimes served elsewhere. My over easy eggs were cooked to perfection as were my side of grits. Plus one ordered the red neck benedict and we could have easily shared her breakfast. I'm not a eggs benedict fan but it was darn good. 1431 is a stick to your ribs breakfast joint that also serves lunch. I can't vouch for their lunch but they are always busy right up until their 3PM closing time. Even though they were packed service was friendly and prompt. Pro tip: If you arrive during their busy times, like Sunday AM, be prepared to wait. 1431 is back in our breakfast rotation, 5-stars.... read more

Service great...no wait to be seated on a Sunday morning great! The food well not the best. The atmosphere is that of a hometown dinner. Really like it. The ladies and gentlemen running the front of the house have the biggest smiles and a very personable. This is the main reason I would come back and eat here again. I had their big boy plate. I will tell you alot of food for 20 bucks. I was amazed. I would suggest reading cause you can alter to your liking. Which is completely on me cause I did not do that. So the next time and yes there will be a next time. I will make to my liking! read more

The ambiance was not good. The music was so loud we could not have a conversation and the waitress actually was yelling to be heard. Not a good start. Service was satisfactory. Pancakes were good. Orange juice thin. Sausage a bit spicy. Overall food good. However, just didn't enjoy due to noise levels. Note: did request wait staff to turn music down which they did. Overall too chaotic to enjoy. read more

We have dined here for the last 3 years at least twice a month, always for breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays. We love the consistency, the simplicity of the food, and the service - really friendly servers, hostesses, and fast service. Today when we came in, we were surprised to see nice shiny new printed menus - and that always means prices went up. Prices increased on pretty much everything (86 cents for an omelette, 50 cents for a waffle). New sign at the host station said only tables of 3 or more could sit at a booth - total bummer. My husband always orders the same thing, substituting in tomatoes for bread because he doesn't eat bread anymore and always subs fruit for his side for an extra charge. Server said we couldn't sub in the tomatoes. So he just declined the bread. With prices going up, he got less food for his money. He tries to eat healthy and he always liked going here because he was able to get something that fit his food choices. I always order different things so that kind of thing doesn't affect me but it's sad to see him not get what he wants. I added fruit to my order and it was $5.99 for a small cup of fruit and that portion looked about the same as what he got added to his meal for $2.25. I also would have liked to have bacon with my French toast and it was $5.29 to add that. Whut? A whole package of bacon doesn't cost that! Our tab today was $41.96 with tax. Just to be clear: we are okay with change. We understand inflation and the cost of goods. We understand that businesses have to evolve. But the cost of items is too high and the vibe is off - these things are turning us away. The cafe looks better with the change in the host station and the new placement of the tables. Same fun, eclectic assortment of coffee mugs. Amazing pie. Lots of great tasting food. However, we will be coming here much less in the future in favor of more cost effective options in North Austin and Cedar Park. read more

I have dined in this restaurant the past 4 years since moving back to the Austin area and I live right down the street but NEVER AGAIN. We got sat quickly and then waited a long time and watched others that sat down after us get served food before us. We have multiple refills of coffee and finally asked "when is our food coming out"" and were told by the waitress that they were still working on it. I asked my wife to wait just a little longer, so we waited another 17 minutes then I walked up to the hostess stand and told them the wait is to long and that I would pay for the coffee we drank. No apology and said we would have to wait for the waitress to pay for the coffee...then whoever responds to reviews states ticket times and says my wife lied about something on the review she wrote. I only do positive reviews and usually just don't go back to restaurants that give poor customer service but guess what...here is my 2nd review and I will make sure I let as many people as possible know about how you treat people. My wife thought initially it was poor service because she is brown skinned but I reassured her I didn't think that was the case...I thought they must have lost the ticket or something but your response to my wife was unbelievable. POOR MANAGEMENT AT BEST. See the other reviews on google and how they respond. Your food is really good but your service is just BAD read more

This is basically a truck stop. Loads of food on the plate, but not very good. The biscuits and gravy were dreadful.
