Very disappointed. I ate here a few times 3 or 4 years ago when business brought me to the area and enjoyed it. Today, I had a doctor's appointment nearby and looked forward to a return visit. Unfortunately my food was disappointing. I ordered 3 eggs, cinnamon roll and coffee. The best part of the meal was the coffee which was tasty and fresh. The eggs were good. Nothing special but hot and tasty. However, the cinnamon roll - which is the reason I came here - was tasteless and very stale. I won't be back. I can get coffee and average eggs anywhere. If they are serving stale pastries, the place is no longer special. read more

With everyone is watching carbs, touting the newest dietary buzzwords of the day, it's nice to know there's a place that we all remember growing with and doesn't apologize for it. Over the years, They have added grilled items that are quite tasty, but Ima go for the fried anything along with mashies, baked beans, etc. The chicken and dumplings are heaven on earth anytime of the year. Prices are decent, considering the economy these days. If you dine in, there's staff that are happy to help you get your grub to the table, will make sure you have butter and honey for the fluffy buns, and smile no matter how busy it gets. Leaving a buck or 2 is not expected, but a nice gesture for their efforts. Blanca sez check'em out! read more

Had a great experience at Bubba's Cooks Country in Dallas! The mashed potatoes were creamy, flavorful, and definitely one of my favorite parts of the meal. Everything was delicious and had that comforting, homemade taste. Great spot for some classic Southern comfort food! read more

Bubba's Cooks Country - Dallas - Mashed Potatoes & Black-Eyed Peas - American Near Me - Dallas, Texas

A Dallas staple! Great spot for fried chicken and brunch. The interior is reminiscent of a diner and very casual, you walk up to order the meal. We got the 2 piece meal that was around $12.99 and you get to pick the type of chicken pieces you want. You have to ask for gravy on the side, tastes great with chicken dipped in. The roll was amazing too, was moist and great flavor. They have a few sides that you can pick from, including fried okra, corn, coleslaw and fries. Fried chicken was moist and skin was crispy. Would definitely come back for a quick meal! read more

Bubba's Cooks Country - Dallas - Catfish and greenbeans and cabbage. - American Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Have heard many good things about this place and finally decided to give it a try! Came early Saturday evening and there was a steady crowd coming in and out. Got the 2 piece chicken meal with mashed potatoes & gravy and green beans. The chicken was served hot and fried nicely. It was not overly salty but still flavorful. The sides for me were lacking. Neither the gravy or green beans had much flavor/seasoning. With a little salt and pepper they were just okay. If I were to come back I would just get chicken and find side elsewhere. My friend said the catfish was good! It is cooked to order. The inside feels like you've stepped back in time, I loved that they've kept the same decor but still very clean. Everyone I came in contact with was very friendly! Greatly appreciated the woman who helped me order. She offered suggestions and also let me try one of the speciality sides before ordering. Parking can be a little tricky with the ongoing construction and other business around but I would definitely find a way to stop in! read more

Bubba's is fried chicken perfection. We used to live in the area and frequently make a stop here a classic diner experience. I now try grab an order if I'm in the area. I tried the catfish for the first time today and absolutely loved it! Heads up: drive - thru is currently closed as there's some road closures and major traffic backup off Hillcrest Rd and all around Snider Plaza. Give them a call to place a curbside order. read more

Everything was absolutely perfect! Corey was so quick and helpful getting my large order together. I always have a great experience coming here! My family loved the fried chicken and green beans! Love this place! read more

Really good and consistent fried chicken! Got 4 pieces (2 drums, 2 breasts) because they were out of thighs, mashed potatoes and gravy and green beans. The rolls are so soft and delicious. Great service and always busy read more

Came in for late lunch/early dinner after reading Yelp reviews. This is a counter service restaurant with food plated/trayed before you leave the counter. Guests get to specify which pieces of chicken they want. All four cuts of fried chicken were tasty. Okra and mashed potatoes were good. Corn and green beans were straight out of a can. Rolls were dense and served as a perfect delivery vehicle for honey and butter. The restaurant is older with a dinner vibe. Being between meal rushes, we dined while workers were doing mid day cleaning and restocking all around us. read more

This was one of the best visits I've had at Bubba's. Perfectly cooked, tender, and juicy fried chicken. Also had a delicious cinnamon roll. The wheat rolls were fantastic. For sides we had the green beans and coleslaw. Service was great. They help carry the food out to your table and clean the table for you after you leave. Expensive for fried chicken, but definitely delicious. Over time, I find that eating inside the restaurant you get better, fresher, and golden fried chicken vs drive-through; which I've been disappointed in at times. Note: temporarily almost 0 parking availability, because of the construction in the Snyder Plaza parking lot. read more

Bubba's Cooks Country - Dallas - 3 Piece Chicken - American Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I think this is my last update. Why you ask? Because Bubbas Cooks Country is a victim of its own success. Last time I came by to drive thru,the line of cars was 10. So, I parked and started towards the door to order. That's when I noticed about 20 people in line. Yikes....I'm out. The first time I've ever passed on Bubbas . So,to help reduce over crowding,I will no longer update the well deserved decades long 4-5 star experience. Don't go ..haha read more

I had an incredible experience at Bubba's in Snider Plaza. From the moment I walked in, I felt like I was at a friend's house rather than a restaurant. Tori is a true gentleman, and Erik was incredibly helpful throughout my visit. They even offered me French fries while I was waiting! It's clear these guys take immense pride in their work. Bubba's is lucky to have such dedicated people on their team. Kudos to Tori , Eric and the entire team at Bubba's.. thank you for an awesome visit.. read more

40 plus years of eating here, nothing has changed, great food, great price and the rolls are so damn good!

Solid/superb every single time. Some of the best fried chicken ever-my fave is the breast. Brined and moist, and that breading is near perfection. Best mashed pototoes ever-no gravy needed for me-my culinary Crack! Cobblers rock every time. And breakfast buttermilk biscuits are better than Grandma's. read more

I love getting their veggie plate. The green beans are yummy, I just pick around the bacon. Mashed potatoes and gravy, coleslaw, and dinner roll are the perfect Sunday comfort food. read more

Thought I would try the Chicken Livers today. I haven't had them since I was a teenager... and no... not doing the math on that one! Walked in, joined the line and placed my order. Noticed ladies working in the dining room to assure tables are clean as soon as customers leave. Once your meal is ready, they will call your name or someone will bring it to your table. Retro decor. Loved the music. Located across from SMU. You have the college crowd, residents from the neighborhood, grandparents with their grandchildren, and drive thru all buzzing with conversation. I found the chicken livers lightly battered, crispy on the outside and very tender meat on the inside. Mashed potatoes, gravy, and green beans were my sides. All tasty. Add additional seasonings and pepper sauce if you prefer. Be sure to check out the banana pudding. I requested extra meringue. Dessert was made fresh and tasted great. Pick-up, drive through, or dine in. Side note: Although there is no place for a tip when paying for your order... I always leave a tip on the table or hand it to the ladies working there. Much deserved for their hard work, friendly smiles, and pleasant attitude. read more

So...craving a chicken fried steak...after work, but tired and ready to go home ...hit this place for a drive thru pick up. Hit the spot, not the greatest CFS, but definitely good! Gravy so so, bread excellent!! Definitely would go again! read more

Always a great experience with this Chicken Very tasty and the cobbler always delicious read more

Service was amazing due to Elvis behind the counter. Deserves a raise and definitely coming back.

Everybody knows the chicken at Babe's is good but y'all are missing out on the banana pudding. It is soooo good! It is real pudding with a real custard and real meringue. No powdered or canned stuff over here! I always snag a serving when I visit. Highly recommend! read more

I love their fried chicken, which is always delicious. Another must have is their cherry cobbler, yum. The only problem I am having is I longer do stairs, There stairs are located going into dinning. I did drop my try trying to go down. They had someone that came and assisted me. Thank you read more

This was my first time that I ate at Bubba's Cooks County on Hillcrest Ave. Really, delicious food they have. I got the fried catfish, fries and bake beans, wife got the chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and green beans. Wonderful ! A must visit for great food. read more

Yes the breakfast is good. My go to is the chicken tenders. Half grilled and half fried. Must get the mashed potatoes with gravy on the side. Rolls are wonderful. Honey and butter make them magical. read more

I was in town for a wedding and was needing to get some black eyed peas and something green for new years. All of this food was so delicious! There was a line all the way through the restaurant but it was worth the wait! I'm not huge on fried things, but I will always get this fried chicken tenders!! Laid back atmosphere where people come in their pajamas. Seems like the perfect place for some late night bites or lazy day food! read more

Came for the chicken fried steak since that's what everyone raves about and they weren't wrong. Made to order and the mashed potatoes were on point! Will be back to try the chicken. read more

Ive been eating at this SMU diner for over 40 years. But I had not been back in some years. The employees were well trained as always, but the food was really bad. The chicken fried steak was this very thin, dried up piece of meat. A hard hockeypuck! I couldnt chew it. Sad, as in the past their steak was always the highlight of every meal. I guess old traditions do die... read more

Bubba's has really gone downhill. I used to recommend this place to others but no longer. Sadly, the last few times I have visited the service gets worse each time and the wait times keep getting longer. The staff is more interested in gossiping about customers rather than completing orders and are so loud you can actually hear them even in the drive-thru. On my last trip, the order taker wrote down the wrong order creating further delays and mistakes seem to be commonplace. The managers appear to be aware of these issues but seem afraid to do anything about it. My advice to Bubba management would be make some changes with their staff and until then I'd recommend people go elsewhere if you value your time and money. There are other good chicken places in Dallas without these hassles. read more

A dallas staple. Been coming here since I was a kid. Never change, Bubba's! Great fried chicken and the best rolls on planet Earth.

I had the fried catfish, fried chicken, cream potatoes with gravy. I really enjoyed it. The staff is very welcoming. I enjoy eating in their dining room. read more

Wow! Have been eating in and doing takeout for 30 years here at Bubbas. My last 3 visits have been less than stellar. Where I thought maybe they were having an off day, but today it was just plain bad. I went in today to purchase 1 1/2 pounds of chicken tenders and they are no longer pump and delicious... rather an anorexic chicken gave birth to tenders. Super salty...just plain disappointing!!!! Has Bubbas been sold? New Management? A dissatisfied customer! read more

My client and I were craving fried chicken livers, so i searched for them in Yelp! We stopped in to Bubba's and were not disappointed. The livers were all large, firm without being tough, and the coating was deliciously crunchy. The ambiance was casual, which was great for a late afternoon lunch. The service was outstanding. They noticed my client walked with a cane and, without even asking, brought our meal to us. My client and I will definitely be back! read more

We order to go chicken liver, fried chicken, it was bad, chicken were very salty, the liver they gave us burned . I do see anything good about the restaurant. read more

I very much wanted to give this place five stars, because the food was definitely worthy of it. This is my second time in here and the food was just as good as the first time. Service was great. When we first walked in, the line was almost out the door at 7pm on a Sunday night. The line probably took about 20 minutes. It wasn't too bad. When we got to the front, we were informed that they were already out of a few different items. They were out of cornbread, chicken and dumplings, greens, and black eyed peas. And they were out of chicken fried steak, and had to fry it to order. This took an extra 15 minutes after we had already waited 20 minutes in line to order. This was very disappointing. I can understand an item or two but four different items, and it's items we wanted. I ordered a three piece chicken. I really like the fact that they let you specify what pieces of chicken you'd like. There was an up charge for an extra breast instead of a wing, which I am more than happy to pay. The chicken was hot, crispy, juicy and flavorful. One of my favorite fried chickens anywhere. I love their yeast rolls. I'll definitely be back, but I just hope that they can work on keeping menu items in stock. read more

Recommended by a friend and was craving fried chicken immensely! I love that those place has a drive through but be prepared to stand in line for a while. I ordered the three piece chicken which came with a choice of 2 rolls or cornbread and 2 veggies. Fried chicken was crunchy but I thought pretty small. The rolls at this place are heaven sent and extremely fluffy and yeasty in the best way. There's a slight sweetness to it in my opinion. The cornbread was my least favorite and was too dense as I prefer a cake like or soft cornbread. This place had some creamy mashed potatoes which were rich and flavorful. It tasted cheesy but I couldn't tell if there were any. My fries were cold :( For a single banana pudding, this was my least favorite item. Costs $4.59 so a small sized bowl. Too much bananas which aren't my favorite and there was barely any pudding. Every bite was a banana. read more

If you're looking for classic southern fried chicken - this is it! I got the 8 piece fried chicken with 4 yeast rolls and a side of mashed potatoes. The entrance was a little confusing because it's a one way and you CANNOT enter through the main road fyi! They also have drive thru but I ended up backing into the parking lot and it was not too busy inside so I went in to order takeout. Was in and out within 5-7 minutes - very quick and friendly service. They asked if I wanted gravy on the side which I said yes but when I went home I did not see it in the bag - would recommend checking your order before leaving. HOWEVER the mashed potatoes (with a lil bit of butter) was really good without the gravy!!! Fried chicken was crispy and juicy - tender other than the chicken breast but that's expected. It's definitely not a healthy meal and there was a lot of extra skin leftover / flaky crisps. Yeast rolls were very fluffy and soft. read more
