    Coffee

    Had the pleasure of having breakfast this morning at 1836 Cafe In Bells TX. if you're ever between Bonham and Sherman you have to stop here and eat!!! One of the best Chicken Fried Steaks I've ever had. The sausage gravy made it super rich and flavorful. We got a Pecan Cinnamon Roll to go and had it for an evening snack. Breakfast and lunch all week and Dinner on Thursday and Friday. Great service, great people, and great food!! Check them out!!

    Best Burger and chips around! Free mimosa on the weekends! Small quaint country living and serving owners! Breakfast is good too, but I'm in love with their burgers! Support your local businesses, because they give back locally!

    Decided to take stroll to find this gem. Simple menu and delicious. I got the chicken and waffles with a side of flapjacks. It came with a choice of sausage or bacon. The sausage was delicious. The flapjacks were fantastic. The waitress is here was definitely hospitable. Nice to see kind people showing that southern hospitality. Definitely will be back to try the burgers.

    THE BETTY

    I first met the owners of 1836 when I started working at The Loft Pizza Pub. I had already heard wonderful things about the Cafe's food & people prior & after talks with them it's obvious the love they poor into their business as a whole. Their quaint Cafe is welcoming & filled with the most delicious smells of homemade food. I have honestly never read the menu so when I called in my 1st order I asked for the Chef's favorite breakfast item...THE BETTY & it did NOT disappoint. Some of the best fried potatoes I've had. Biscuits, eggs, sausage & gravy cooked to absolute perfection My goal is to try everything on the menu now! Get over to FB & give them a follow!!

    If you are looking for a small WONDERFUL home cooking experience, look no further! The food is absolutely amazing! The staff is stellar and it's just some of the best breakfast food around! You will not be disappointed.

    The Austin omelette with bacon and toast with skillet potatoes.

    Had breakfast for lunch there today 11/2/24. We had The Austin and the 1/2/3 egg plate. Service was friendly and prompt. Food came out quickly and just as we ordered. Took a cinnamon roll home they are HUGE.

    Outside has the cutest swing and outdoor seating!

    Today I needed to stop in somewhere and wait for a locksmith and had 3 hours to kill. I found this lunch spot in Bells and if you don't know... there's not a ton to choose from! However, as soon as I walked in I was greeted with friendly hello's and the smell of the grill firing up. I got the chicken sandwich, which sounds basic, but it was absolutely not. Soooo amazing. Fries were seasoned and perfect. At the end they brought me a homemade chocolate chip cookie that was equally as good as everything else I tried. I'll absolutely be back and hopefully take advantage of complementary mimosas on the weekends! Definitely a Bells gem.

We had a reservation, which is recommended because the restaurant was very busy on a Saturday night in May. We opted to sit on the patio because the weather was gorgeous. I am not sure if the patio is climate controlled in the summer or not. But on that night we were there, the weather was mild so it was very pleasant. They have happy hour on Saturdays so I started with an IPA on tap and the wife had a Prosecco, also for happy hour prices. This is a tapas restaurant so I will try to remember all that we had. Manchego cheese board: excellent. The crisps and jam were perfect with the cheese. Potato torilla: excellent. The flavors melded very well and it was very tasty. It's filling so keep that in mind. Ceviche de jalapeno: excellent. Not too spicy, the shrimp and seafood was fresh with no fishy smell. The plantains were cooked perfectly, not greasy. Brisket on crostini: excellent. Forget the name but they are a winner. Brisket is good quality and the flavors come together nicely. Chicken skewer: excellent. They smartly use chicken thighs so the meat is juicy and tender. Tuna tartare: good. It actually was my least favorite. The quality was very good but it did not have much flavor. I needed some heat, some acid, something to give it a kick. We were absolutely stuffed and did not try dessert. Our server Marcellus was excellent. Very helpful and pleasant throughout. He never disappeared for too long. Overall, we had a great meal and will undoubtedly return here again.

The whole vibe here is warm and happy. Brooke, Jason and Zach exude joy and truly seem to love being here and delivering a gold star experience to everyone who visits. RUN! don't walk here ASAP but please save me a spot at the bar :-)

Great flavor and plenty of clams, mussels and shrimp. We also really enjoyed the crispy pork - nice little kick in the sauce and the perfect amount of marbling in the meat. The carpaccio was Texas-sized. Speaking of Texas-sized, do not skip the award-winning coconut cake. It is on the pricey side for a dessert but it easily feeds 4 and yes, it is that good! Our server, Tiffani, was outstanding. She was very attentive throughout our meal, and when the Rioja we wanted was out, she poured my wife several samples to help her decide on another bottle - we ended up w an excellent easy-drinking Paso Robles Cabernet. This place is definitely worth the trip!

The charcuterie board was WAY bigger than I expected and honestly big enough to share as a meal next time. I ordered the Sweet Thai Chili Chicken Flatbread and really liked the flavor, but they were definitely generous with the sauce. It made the flatbread a little soggy, even after trying to crisp up the leftovers in the air fryer. Same thing with the hot honey flatbread I ordered to-go for my boyfriend. Everything tasted great, I'd just ask for the sauces on the side next time. Overall, I'd absolutely go back. Great atmosphere, great food, and now I know exactly how I'd order next visit.
