My son used to love their chicken strips and fries, with a vanilla shake after soccer practice... we hadn't gone in a while so I ordered him the chicken strips, ordered some for my husband and got me the fish & chips and a bowl of clam chowder. We don't live far, just a short 7 minute or so ride, so I got it for pick-up. Anywho, $80 later, I'm throwing most of it away... the chicken strips are NOT the same, these are some generic frozen crap from Walmart or something... not like it used to be at all, even the fries are the cheap frozen fast food fries from Walmart! I just put the oyster crackers on my clam chowder and stupidly didn't check first, THEY WERE STALE! Oh Alan's, yall used to be SOOOO GOOD! What happened? Is it the tariffs? Is the cost for fresh food too expensive now? Sucks for me, I wanted ONE effing night off from cooking! JUST ONE! Can't trust fast food, now can't even trust the family spots? So very disappointed. Also the fried cod was SOOOO oily! It's like they didn't even put it on the drip pan for a bit to let it drip off, my sweet potato fries are also greasy... I think the clam chowder is canned, but it's not terrible... I added some cream to it and that took down the sodium a bit... smh... what the heck!?!? Don't go here, it's like disappointment lives here... oh, and $1 for a 2 ounce side of ranch that is also just "eh"... we should've gone to FPH... they are way better quality. read more

Service was good, wife's food was good, drinks were good. Prices a little high, but what isn't these days. Unfortunately my fish and chips were soggy and greasy without much flavor. Stick with breakfast items I guess and don't order the fish and chips....yuck :P read more

We would comment on the food, but me and 2 other tables walked out after we weren't even served drinks after 45 minutes. Understaffed? Probably. Inadequate service? Absolutely. read more

The service here is beyond horrible. I wouldn't recommend Alan's Country Cafe ever. My husband and I and our two kids arrived at 10:26 am. It took nearly 20 minutes for someone to take our orders, and that was only because we had to flag down a waiter and ask if we could order. At no point while we waited did anyone ask if we would like anything besides water. A waitress brought a cup of coffee by mistake, and when we told her we didn't order it, she just looked confused and walked to another table. After waiting even longer, they bring food out to our table but it wasn't even our orders. We waited even longer and longer while the waiter checked in and asked how we were doing but couldn't give us any updates on when we might expect to receive our food. After waiting an hour, we ended up just leaving the restaurant because we were so disappointed in the service and the indefinite wait. read more

We had breakfast here . [[HIGHLIGHT]]Really nice , clean and well decorated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is fast , food prepared to our liking . All and all I recommend Alan's to all read more

The Patty Melt was terrible. The meat had an odd, spongy texture and no flavor. There was very little cheese and few onions. Overall, I was shocked at how bad it was. I will say the server was the sweetest and provided great service. read more

We enjoyed our breakfast. The loaded hash browns were impressive! The coffee was good too!

The food was fantastic! Scrambled eggs were some of the best I've had in a long time!! The coffee menu had something for everyone but wasn't overwhelming. Best of all the service was stellar, the gals working were incredibly kind and attentive! read more

My fiancé and I went for the first time this afternoon for Mother's Day. They did have a special Mother's Day menu, which was a good idea. It doesn't look too much different from when it was Kelly's; thé atmosphere is nice and more or less what you'd expect for a diner. The host/server seated us immediately, but initially only brought us the Mother's Day menu, which was limited and higher-priced options. He eventually brought us the regular menu and told us some of the items on that would not be available today. It took awhile for him to take our drink order. We stayed even though the menu items seemed a bit pricy, even with the elevated cost of food. The appetizer onion rings were $11 for a regular Oder and were clearly out of à bag. The mozzarella sticks were $12 and also clearly out of à bag. My fiancé ordered fish and chips and a Sprite and I ordered an Impossible cheeseburger with a small Chai milkshake. We came out of our dinner today $80 lighter + tip. I want to be fair and make it clear that none of the food was bad, but it was clearly made from frozen items and really, it was regular bar food, not even really a diner experience. Not worth $80 for 2 people to eat at a diner/café. I do also want to let people know that they do breakfast all day, so that may be a real plus for some people. It also looks like there are a lot of options. Because of the cost for what you're getting, I won't be going back. Again, in fairness, the food itself is nothing special but it's not bad, either. read more

This is a cute little place, we stopped in by chance and agreed we would come back here again! The food was good and came out nice and hot, the coffee was great, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]it's very clean and sweetly decorated with booths and tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was very nice and attentive. It took us a second to find it because it's a little hidden behind another building but there is ample parking as well once you get there. read more

Had the Nashville chicken sandwich and it was delicious! Can't wait to order again and get the breakfast !

We were excited to visit this cute diner for the first time in November 2025, but were deeply disappointed with the service, and quality of food. It took over 10 minutes before we were greeted by a server and provided water, and after ordering we waited for just OVER AN HOUR to receive a very basic breakfast order for 4 people. The staff didn't seem to care and quite frankly this was one of our worst restaurant experiences in recent memory. Forget the fact that the prices were extremely high, but the level of service and satisfaction was incredibly low. I don't like to bash a small business, however, I feel like I owe it to others considering stopping in to just STAY AWAY read more

How sad that this place has gone extremely down hill in just a few months. The times I've gone I've always gotten there eggs Benedict.. and it was absolutely amazing. Today when we decided to go there for breakfast we were the only ones in there and the waitress still didn't know how to properly serve customers. If you have 1 table to serve you better be on it... that was not the case for us. We had to go up to the front to pay because she was doing gods know what. Literally nobody was in there and now I know why.. let's get to the food. My eggs Benedict was disgusting. No seasoning whatsoever, the hollandaise sauce tasted like water, my eggs were over cooked and tasted weird so I stopped eating it incase it was bad. The only good thing about the meal was the hash browns. 20 bucks down the drain. So sad. My husband got the biscuits and gravy and he said it was bland.. It sounds like this business will go out soon, so unfortunate because it use to be so good and service was great. What happened? read more

Horrible service, mediocre food, waited over 50 minutes to get our lunch, they brought two of our meals and had to wait another five minutes for the third one....no compensation and never coming back! read more

My wife and I LOVE breakfast, so we'd eat it anytime during the day or night. Came here for the first time, arrived a little after noon and were immediately seated in a booth. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The seats are a little weird...really long and in two sections, so you've got to slide a ways to get fully in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My wife ordered their Pancake Breakfast ($15.95): Two pancakes, two eggs, choice of bacon, sausage or ham steak, syrup. The pancakes are huge and nearly hung over the side of the plate. She got two slices of bacon and two eggs over medium. I got the Biscuits & Gravy ($15.95): Homemade buttermilk biscuits covered in country sausage gravy, two eggs, golden hash browns or country fried potatoes. The biscuit was probably the best I've ever had in a restaurant...HUGE, light and fluffy...covered in lots of delicious black peppery sausage gravy, with two perfectly fried eggs over medium (a little crispy around the edges with a runny yolk), and the flavorful fried potatoes. The portions were so big, I took home half my biscuit and gravy for breakfast the next day. Just stuck with water to drink, which was immediately brought to us when we arrived without having to ask. Service was fine and everyone was friendly and accommodating. My only complaint: our food took longer than expected to arrive. Thankfully, it was worth the wait. Though we don't get to Port Orchard from East Bremerton much anymore, we will definitely return to try other menu items. Bremerton could use more small, reasonably priced, family owned breakfast cafes like this place and Uncle Dave's. read more

Always wanted to try it and finally did. Very disappointing. Wife ordered a turkey club and it was processed gelatinous turkey. I ordered pancake breakfast, eggs were tiny, sausage tasted like jimmy dean and pancakes were overcooked. Prices were high for quality and portion size. We sent hers back and she went next door to blue agave. We wont be going back! read more

Update: the wonderful manager refunded the cost of the carrot cake and said he appreciated my input. Ordered carrot cake via Door Dash. Picture showed a three layer piece of cake, but what I got was a tiny ONE layer piece of cake. CHANGE your picture or increase the price if needed to actually provide what you're advertising. I've left great reviews for this restaurant in the past, but feel totally ripped off this time. . read more

We were greeted and seated in short order by a younger waitress with a flat affect and brought out some water. After about 10 minutes our order was taken and the approx 35 minutes later our food was brought to our table. The food was hot but bland. I don't think we will be going back! read more

First time at Alan's. Greeted quickly, water at the table in 1 minute. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Looking around, the place was clean and had that homelike feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Our table was clean. That's not always the case at some restaurants.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was courteous and prompt. We ordered the cheeseburger, I had onion rings my wife had fries. First thing we noticed was the serving size was not overly large. Perfect size. I'm a big fan of seasoning on my sides like onion rings and fries. Could have used a bit more seasoning. Still good. The burgers were perfectly cooked. Nice crust on the patty. Food was very good, service was excellent. We will definitely be returning to Al's Country Cafe. read more

I just ate here. The food is not that good had a chicken sandwich which was burnt on the sides and the tots were burnt as well. Service was not good. Never asked if I wanted anymore to drink. I was asked is there any things else you need when my food was brought to me. Never did the server come back to me asking if I needed anything else. She brought me my receipt and that was it. I had to ask what flavors of pie she had. Not cream pie person so I declined. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Would not come here again it is sad because it is a cute place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Disappointed for sure and this was 3:30-4:30pm on a Sunday. read more

Ouch. This was a painful experience. 5 stars for effort on behalf of Sunny our waitress who was very sweet and friendly but it was obvious she was overwhelmed. Dropping stars for organization, timeliness and quality (utensils were presented in a communal bucket which didn't seem quite sanitary and masks were not 100% being worn by staff). We were seated as a group of 8 on a Sunday at 11am the restaurant was only half full (following covid guidelines) or less as watched a few other parties abandon their tables altogether from extended wait times. We had 5 coffee orders from our group which took nearly 35 minutes to receive and even as they approached the table almost every order was mixed up over simple details ie: iced, not iced, latte vs. chai latte and milk substitutions. We had the same issue with food which arrived faster than drinks but had transposed egg orders ie both pancakes and French toast arrived but scrambled and over easy were mixed and one order was missed altogether. My sympathies that they are short staffed and do not have a full time barista but order accuracy shouldn't be that complicated. It's hard to say if the mix up was our waitress or kitchen staff but it was a hot mess. Everything eventually made it but it was incredibly awkward to watch as both our waitress and the owner traveled back and forth to our table to clarify who had what. At the end of the day the food was just okay. 2 star experience but leaving it to 3 stars in hopes they'll get all the kinks ironed out. read more

Good country style food. Recommend when ordering take out to give yourself an hour. Every time I ordered breakfast it takes about an hour, the time the online system gives you is never accurate. I always need to wait about another 10 minutes for it to be ready. However, when it does come out the food is hot and ready to go. read more

Consistently good food that doesn't taste like bland past (some other local popular places.) We have ordered from the frequently for Eggs Benedict, biscuits and gravy, Country Benedict, pancakes. No complaints on any front. Lately open for in person, the wait staff is minimal (2 each time we have been in.), but they are attentive. One lady is a previous kinder/primary school teacher with all the bubbly positivity needed for an amazing grade school teacher. The food has been very good whether delivery or in person. The old school country music is homey. Would be a great country bar sometime in the future with the warm staff, great food, and good music. read more

If you are considering ordering through door dash. We had a couple dashers show up and ditch the order. The final dasher told us they told them they will not make any door dash orders unless everyone dine in had food. People who walked in an hour after I made my order were served first. Our poor dasher waited an hour and a half for two sandwiches. They have good food, have been ordering 1-2 a week for months. Just not worth paying for dash fees to wait 2 hours for a couple sandwiches. read more

I bring my daughter here a few times a month for our girl date. She loves their cheese burger and I typically get their blue cheese burger. The service is always great, burgers are delicious, and the prices are fair. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and family friendly. read more

First time trying Alan's County Cafe. My order was made promptly and the service was very friendly. Got the club sandwich with fries. So good! Im not a big french fry person but these fries are really good and crispy. The sandwich was delicious. Great portions and fair prices. Perfect place to grab breakfast/lunch on my way to work. Looking forward to trying more items on the menu! read more

The server originally brought a breakfast dish i did not order and it was horrible. When she realized she made a mistake, the plate was quickly removed off the table. When I received the actual order, it was good but the sausage could have cooked longer for the crust that makes it delicious. I'd try the place again but not for breakfast. Ambiance could use some improvement but was clean. read more

Got a burger here last night and it made me super sick. Used to love the food here but the burger tasted like airplane food. The bun was stale, fries were over cooked. The one time I came here for breakfast my pancakes were undercooked. Disappointed that the quality has gone down. read more

Glad to see Alan's finally was able to open despite the Covid-19 debacle. They opened for inside dining recently (every other table, must wear mask going in, etc.) Nice little country-style diner for breakfast and lunch. Over the closure months from the transition from the old restaurant that was here, they did some nice renovations inside. We ordered the chicken burger with fries, and also sausage and eggs with a short stack. And as always, we both shared each other's meal. Nicely done - pancakes were light and fluffy, and generous (I'm a small eater so that's not always a benefit for me LOL!). My only disappointment was the sausages seemed to be of the "frozen brown and serve" variety. I'd have rather had traditional links cooked fresh. But they were tasty. The chicken burger was tasty as well with a nicely done chicken breast patty. Just a tad on the oily side for our taste but it was good. All in all, a good experience and we will be back read more

Good grief. How can you pair snail's pace service with tasteless food? I came in a few years ago and had the same experience, but it's been open for awhile and thought it might have turned around. Silly me, it hadn't. It has so much potential, but absolutely falls flat- and honestly, I'm not all that picky. read more

Very tasty food with a wide selection. Nice portions. Good service and cozy, pleasant environment. Reasonably priced. Highly recommend for all around value. read more

Second time food is trash. I got food delivery that had a scoop of hashbrowns no bigger than a size of a spoon, honestly was shocked bec usually u get a good podtion of hashbrowns from any place u get breakfast from.. A soup mess of gravy where my eggs were drowned and the chicken fried steak was soggy and so salty it was unedible. This place used to be better but last few times have been horrible. No longer will order from here. read more

Tasty, home-cooked food that sets itself apart from other franchise spots like IHOP, Denny's, etc. This place actually feels like you're in a country cafe! Certainly lives up to its name! We tried the burger (awesome), the biscuits and gravy (so good!), and the milkshake (yes!). Everything was great and we will absolutely be back. read more

Good diner breakfast. Clean and friendly service. We stop again when passing through.

I'm so sorry to write this, we always had such a great meal there, but today my daughter took her dad there for breakfast, and it was not good. They ordered biscuits and gravy, no flavor at all. Even the strawberry lemonade tasted like water with some strawberries in it. I don't know what happened. I originally gave it 5 stars! I just hope it comes back! read more

Wow, what a find, we had a little extra time on are hands and we're hungry and we found Alan's country café. breakfast served all day long was fantastic especially the blueberry pancakes with special blueberry sauce.

Note, the Espresso after breakfast was smooth and tasty read more

Bad service. The food was not good at all. I should have gone to Pancake house. I ordered toast, and they gave me one slice. I was trying to be positive, so add my jelly and took a bit. My jelly tasted like it was in the fridge way too long. read more
