Blue Plate Cafe - Angus Chopped Steak Tuesday Special - Southern Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

Wow wow. I had never been here but the two people that I was meeting for a business breakfast had chosen this place so I drove to it. My favorite thing is always the service even more than the food at any restaurant and I super love local owned restaurants too. This one was a local restaurant and the vibe was seriously perfect. The severs were super nice and joyful and they continued to serve us remaining coffees and waters and other things. This was a great place and the breakfast food was seriously very very good and it's clear why this place was super packed on a random Wednesday morning. So great. read more

Blue Plate Cafe - Meatloaf Plate Monday Special - Southern Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

Excellent blue plate special choices. Quick, friendly service. Classic cafeteria, nothing fancy. Good southern food!

The food is always good. Service is great with plenty of seating. I haven't eaten anything that was not delicious.

Blue Plate Cafe is always my go to spot for meat and three dishes. For each day of the week, they have specific menu items that they serve. We had the chicken and dressing with fried okra and collard greens. We also had their apple cobbler for dessert. As always, the food was very good. You may have to add your own salt and pepper, but nothing's wrong with that. My guest ordered the same thing, but with hash brown casserole. The hash brown casserole was cold and instead of our waitress replacing it, she stuck it in a microwave. We also noticed a lot of water on the floor near the food bar area. I believe the staff had already started cleaning, which is ok, but not when the floors have that much water to where it could possibly result in an injury. When we checked out the lady at the register even asked us how our food was and even though we told her the hash brown casserole was cold, she didn't apologize or even offer to comp us for this side item. read more

Blue Plate Cafe - Chicken and dressing, fried okra, green beans, cornbread and butter! Mouthwatering deliciousness. - Southern Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

Easy aearing but can see it filling up. Great service, but my water glass did need attention. Not bad as it was busy. Food arrived fast. Pancakes were light. Thats good, didn't want them heavy. Bacon was cooked on the stove as they were smaller and shriveled. Suggest they look at cooking bacon in the oven. Gives them even long strips. But im nitpicking. Id give this 4.5. A good, homey, warm place during rain. read more

Fantastic breakfast. Possibly the best bacon I've had - cooked just the way I like it, not too crispy. Good grits and biscuit with gravy too. They were super accommodating of our large group. Much appreciated! Great service and overall I highly recommend. Lots of tasty-looking items on the menu I'd like to go back and try. read more

Blue Plate Cafe - Blue Plate Breakfast with scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuit with gravy and cheese grits. - Southern Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

It looks very traditional American style diner, A good old school diner that serves good omelettes for breakfast. And they serve very good coffee here(well, I know which brand they serve, but taste way too far different from what they serve!!) Good service with good old American atmosphere that makes all my food taste good! read more

Down home cooking and lunch specials come with cobbler. We loved it! Wait staff was friendly and efficient. Great pricing! I'll go back

Service was excellent. Food... not so much. We went in for breakfast, as my prior breakfast experience was outstanding. Unfortunately, they stop serving it around noon. Since we were already seated, we ordered some lunch menu items. It was definitely not a repeat experience. The pot roast was tasteless and dry; I dont even know how it's even possible to make pot roast taste like nothing. The cabbage had a terrible taste to it as well; maybe a mix of garlic and the pot it was cooked in (?). I couldn't eat anything off my plate at all. Will likely not be back anytime soon, if ever. Ambience? It's a diner. Expect standard-issued dust bunnies hanging from the vents. read more

Great food! Still serving those two tiny one bite hushpuppies though. Eat here every time I'm in town. They are really just a good quality meat and three. read more

My mom and I love going here when I'm in town! Food is wonderful. Service is fast. Cost is definitely worth it. Love the desserts. It's a bit crowded and loud for lunch but I wouldn't expect anything else from such a good restaurant. We will continue dining at Blue Plate Cafe. read more

I never had a meat and three exexperience before this. I am a fan! The food is always great and so is the service! The southern family vibe is noteworthy! I eat here whenever I can meet up with my friends! read more

Maybe I caught them on a bad day. It wasn't bad, it just didn't hold up to all the hype from other reviewers. I've been eating at diners for over 50 years and this wouldn't rank in the top ten. I had the meatloaf, mashed potatoes, black eyed peas, and fried okra. Nice size portions all around. The meatloaf was pretty good, and so were the peas. But the okra was not very good. It appeared as if they cooked enough for the day at 10:00 am, very greasy. I arrived at 1:00pm. The potatoes tasted very much like box potatoes, not a lot of taste in them or lumps. If it wasn't for the service, I would have given only two stars. read more

I finally made it here with my group of coworkers and you will not leave hungry!!! The prices were good and so is the food. I got their chicken and the fried okra and corn bread and I was happy as a clam! I would definitely go back. A check for 6 of us was $89. read more

I had a marginally better breakfast while my car was being serviced after my first "meh" review. My breakfast burrito was well prepared and (thankfully) hot, the coffee was continually refilled, and I was satisfied. I was also there longer than I anticipated (see also: car service), and staff were super friendly about this--note that I did NOT keep others from being seated, don't be a jerk. While seated I ran into my city councilman, heard a LOT about the goings on at the Utility department, and had more fun eavesdropping/people watching than normal. So I guess choose your own adventure, and get a burrito--not a breakfast platter. read more

Food: Was amazing more then enough on most all portions I noticed coming out the window as I set at the bar. Ordered the omelette plate with fresh vegetables bacon and ham with spinach cooked to perfection with a large serving of cheese browns worth the whole trip and a nice size biscuit with a side of gravy. Service: Top notch best hands down most humble and kindest people in the whole place not one person was upset now that's service. Ambiance: Old school dinner with same hospitality read more

We really enjoyed our first meal at the Blue Plate Cafe today. Despite a full house for Sunday lunch, service by Whitney was quick, attentive, and very friendly. My chicken fried steak with gravy was excellent along with what tasted like real mashed potatoes, well-seasoned green beans, and a crisp house salad. The dinner also came with a huge yeast roll , but the meat and side servings were so large I never got around to it, so I brought it home for later. My wife had the grilled chicken sandwich with fries and a fruit cup. I didn't try any of it but she said it was all very good. The restaurant is open everyday from 6:00 AM to 2:30 PM for breakfast and lunch. It's located on the corner of Elm Place and Kenosha in Broken Arrow. We plan to return soon to try the extensive breakfast menu. Based on a single visit, we recommend the Blue Plate Cafe. read more

My husband and I tried breakfast here a few days ago and were somewhat disappointed, given all the good reviews. The staff was friendly and fast, but the food was just ok. The chicken fried steak was very small in portion, and the food was decent but not as good as reviews made us believe. We wouldn't likely return, but if you want a cheap meal-the food is only about $10 or less per person. read more

My favorite diner! Their omelette is the best thing on their menu. Huge and yummy! We love eating breakfast here. The prices are reasonable too! Just wish we could make reservations as it gets busy! read more

Came here for breakfast but arrived at 11. Yelp doesn't tell you this place doesn't have breakfast as it came up when I searched for breakfast. Menu for no -breakfast is pretty lame, just crappy bar type food. I heard breakfast is great here though, so will come back for that and update. Not sure why a place doesn't have breakfast at 11 am on a Saturday morning. Ever heard of brunch? Especially a diner place, usually has breakfast all day. I guess they are trying to be McDonald's or something? 81 health score too read more

Will not patronize on as regular a basis as I used to as they have cut back portion sizes dramatically, particularly on the breakfast gravy biscuit. Their oatmeal side order is anemic. read more

We went there for lunch on a Friday. The parking lot was pretty full. We were sat as soon as we got in. Our waitress was friendly and punctual. She took our orders and the food came out quickly. We got the meat and 3. Our chicken fingers and vegetables were delicious. We will be back! read more

Dec 2024: My review is split 50/50. The service and food were 4 stars; however, the place is very dirty (1 star). Our table wasn't very clean. We also sat next to the window and the window sill and blinds were absolutely filthy, as was the sticky floor, not only under our table, but visibly around other tables as well. We ate breakfast at 10:10 on a Tuesday morning, so this level of dirtiness was surprising so early in the day. Not a good impression and we won't return. read more

Blue Plate Cafe is bang for your buck. The food here tastes great and it was a home run for sure. I absolutely love breakfast food and this just hit the spot for me. I got an all veggie omelet with extra jalapeños and it had the right amount of heat and explosion of flavor. The tater tots were crispy and hot and the biscuit was flaky and buttery. Our server was absolutely amazing and she did an amazing job. She's very friendly and amazing with kids. An awesome example of southern hospitality. Now I wanted to leave a place in this review for cocoa biscuits. This is like biscuits and gravy but as a dessert. What I had pictured in my head was totally different than what was served but how can you go wrong with this? Honestly it's one of those things where it looks wrong but don't knock it till you try it. read more

I look forward to breakfast here, whenever I visit. Their goal is Southern comfort food, served the way meals were served decades ago and should still be served today. I must admit eating at the Blue Plate Café invoked some strong, pleasant memories of eating really good food, served like my Grandmother made them. Breakfast is consistently perfect. Tasty farm fresh bacon and eggs, with hash browns crisped to perfection and a variety of biscuits or toast, served hot and with a smile.  A bottomless pot of freshly brewed coffee was available as well as a to go cup, if I wanted. Melanie, my server was friendly and had a wonderful small so early in the morning.   So to sum up, Good Southern cooking, affordable prices, friendly service and smiles. Tip: Go early, it can get busy.  Well Done. I will be back again. read more

Solid blue plate dishes. Standouts were the veggie sides. Do not pass up the creamed corn, SO good. Blueberry Cobbler was the desert of the day that most patrons were clambering for. TBH the food is on the bland side, so if you're watching your salt intake, this is a good spot for you. Service friendly and on point. read more

First time here for breakfast! Sat at the bar. Service was excellent! Food was excellent! Lots of food for the money. Will definitely visit again! read more

Usually a quick meal. They have several menu selections. You are able to choose from maybe 4 items per column, including deserts. I think you can order other items individually. Parking decent. Never had to circle around for a space. read more

I've been to the blue plate in Tuscaloosa on numerous occasions and it's one of my favorite spots so I thought I would stop by and show some love. The staff are attentive and very friendly and it wasn't busy when I went by and I was seated right away. I wanted to try the pot roast but I chickened out and ordered chicken tenders lmao. Now the chicken tenders were really exceptional and had a great crunch and flavor to them. The steak fries were crazy and I was amazed at how many they gave me. I would definitely recommend read more
