I Was Very Disappointed With My Choice Selection, Which Were Beef Tips And Gravy. There Was Only Four Small Pieces Of Meat, And The Rest Was Mushrooms With Gravy! I Have Always Been Very Pleased With The Food From This Chain/Restaurant! Hopefully In The Future This Restaurant Does Better With Loyal Customers, Like Myself! read more

Our server Maddy Plante was very helpful and gave us a great service. The setting was pleasant and the food was ravishing!

Ate lunch with some business colleagues as this place is talked about frequently. Large dining area was quiet enough to carry on a conversation at our table easily. Not crowded with tables on top of each other which is always nice. Service was good. Food is nothing to get excited about. I had the Shiner Fish and Chips which was fine. A bit greasy, and lacked seasoning. Tasty diner food but lacked excitement. A solid choice for a quick lunch. read more

We have been to the Cotton Patch Cafe a number of times and have had great food every time. The wait staff takes Good care of you.

Not sure why the overall Yelp score wasn't higher. Great southern comfort food with possibly the best jalapeno cream gravy I've ever had. It goes really well with the chicken fried chicken. read more

I ordered a $14 fried shrimp meal to include fries, huspuppies, salad, and tarter sauce. I picked it up, I don't live in town and maybe I should have checked the order, but actually I shouldn't need to check it. There were maybe 5 shrimp, no salad, no huspuppies, and no tarter sauce, all for $14! The rolls were good. Extremely disappointed. I called and was offered a future discount but it's very unlikely I'll return. read more

After waiting 30 minutes for our order, they told us the broiler had been turned off by mistake and it took a while to heat up-- but food was coming. 15 minutes later we gave up and left. We were served "hot" rolls that were under cooked. Our server seemed really nice, but it doesn't make up for the almost hour we wasted. read more

Very disappointed my Veteran dad wasn't honored with his free chicken fried steak as stated on military.com at this location. He was given a bill which only took $10's off his meal. Veterans deserve better then only $10's off their bill read more

Tried to have dinner there last night. Went in about 5:00 pm for an early dinner. I ordered bbq drizzled salmon with a salad. The salad was ok although it was unusually wet, but the salmon was seared on the outside and undercooked inside. I tried to find cooked areas to eat but gave up and ate a bit of the salad and okra. The waiter did inquire about it and offered to fix another. I declined as I was just ready to leave. It was also removed from my bill. Maybe I just caught them on an off day, I don't know. read more

Had been a regular eat out while living in the area. Was passing through and deliberately tracked this down. Quality has declined. Our side dishes looked like left overs and were barely warmed through. Chicken fried steak gravy was bland at best. Most bothersome was the management tolerance of unmasked incoming patrons. Come on. You're in a spiked state of the pandemic. read more

Would give it zero stars if I had the option! Worst experience, food was cold and waiter was the laziest waiter I have ever seen. He shouldn't have a job, but when you have no one else to hire, you just have to lower your standards! Don't waste your time and money here! Never again! I'd rather eat a two week old burrito! Will never return! read more

We are traveling from Arizona to Arkansas for a wedding, and stopped for the night at a hotel. We asked the hotel clerk for a recommendation and she mentioned Cotton Patch Cafe. Service was excellent - friendly, quick, answered any questions we had. Food is definitely Southern comfort food - and delicious. We also noticed that the other servers there were all working, cleaning, serving, bussing as well as paying attention to the customers. We definitely recommend Cotton Patch Cafe. Thank you! read more

Waitresses 2 kids were behind us yelling at each other and kicking seat behind me got a headache. Food came with plastic hanging out of it, black-eye peas had fried okra in it. Waitress took plate back and got me another. Salad lettuce was not cut up did that myself. No extra water no dessert no coffee. Tried to charge me for plate that was taken back. Horrible experience and do not recommend ! read more

If the salad had not been good I would have given it a no star. The chicken was over cooked the steamed vegetables were rubber in consistency. It was horrible. The manager or assistant manager offered a dessert to try and make up for it. Nothing like trying to eat heathy getting rubber type food and then being offered a sugar treat. No thank you. The bread was not even baked properly it was under done. Better luck next time. Paid full price for the meal to boot. read more

Service and food has always either been great or terrible I swear it's a toss up when going there. The only thing consistent is the inconsistency. read more

Came here on a Friday for lunch after my grandmother's funeral, roughly about 30 people. They gave us the back room and were seated pretty quickly. One of our servers that waited on us was outstanding! I didn't catch her name but she was incredibly polite, had drink refills before I realized I was almost empty, just an awesome girl. I had the grilled cheese and the butter cake for dessert, both were delicious! My mom ordered the fried bacon and those who had some said it was amazing. I went out to the car and the dining room was full! I live in California and am not in Plainview very often but if we do visit again we will be dining here. Thanks again for the amazing service! read more

Probably the most tender fried chicken I've ever had! The chicken was hot. Sales was huge w/lots of avocado, egg, bacon and cheese. My Husband really enjoyed his chicken fried chicken & mashed potatoes & country gravy. The green beans were too soft for his palate read more

Day before Thanksgiving...Covid era... Lockdowns looming again. In town working and in a hotel. Did online order although they had seating, just wanted to pickup and go. Chicken Fried Steak was very good. Super easy, and food was ready as promised. read more

We ate here after a morning of apple picking so came in famished as a table of 7. The chicken fried chicken was good but the helping was on the small side. I got jalapeño hush puppies for one of the sides which were delicious but neither the waitress or the menu mentioned an upcharge for them. My friend got the Tex Mex salad with chili lime chicken which description sounded amazing but the actual salad was lackluster. My friend's avocado chicken sandwich came out with a black avocado that never should have left the kitchen. The chicken fried chicken tacos were spicy and good, but a salad entree came out with mostly turned lettuce. Upsides: our waitress graciously offered to split the check for us and the bathrooms were clean. I'm not sure what other options there are in Plainview since we were just passing through but I would opt to try another place over eating at the Cotton Patch again. read more

Decided to try lunch here because they typically have several cars outside, which is usually a good sign. I stood at the podium for several minutes, was not greeted nor acknowledge, while several workers walked directly past me. Finally was seated, I ordered the chicken fried chicken with okra and baked squash. The price was reasonable and the chicken was great but the okra was soggy and had zero flavor, the baked yellow squash was a casserole type dish with too much breading baked in and was pretty bland also. The service was very subpar, no smiles, no personality. It seems that the servers were just there to get a check. Having grown up in restaurants, I would love to see more friendly personal service and oh yes, the music! Really Cotton Patch! Look around at your clientele, do you really think they enjoy the type of music you play and at the volume?? I would love to give you another try, and very well may, but please raise the bar some. read more

I had the sweetest server and the yummiest food ! The restaurant it's self was very clean. it was a little dark for my liking, but I did go at night time so that could have been part of it. read more

Wow usually the staff is attentive and friendly but I stood there for 5 minutes before anyone came to ask me how many were in my party and they weren't even busy finally they yelled I'll be right with you but that was only cause three guys came in if not I'd probably be still standing there being ignored and what gets me the most is that one of the servers was eating stuffing her face and saw me and still ignored me!! Not sure about coming back!!! read more

My husband and I stopped here on our way back to Albuquerque, NM. Not only did we have a very good meal, but we got to relax and enjoy the great service we received. I wish I'd remembered our server's name, but I don't. We got the fried mushrooms to start and really liked the honey mustard sauce. The mushrooms had a nice, light breading on them so that you could really taste the mushroom itself. My husband got a chicken fried chicken meal and I opted for potato soup. I had my doubts about the soup, but didn't want a lot of food so I went for it and it was delicious! It was the perfect mix of chunks of potatoes, bacon and cheese. The chicken fried chicken seemed pretty good also as there wasn't any left! This restaurant was very clean, the service excellent and the food very good. I wish we had a Cotton Patch in Albuquerque because we'd visit often if it was always this enjoyable! read more

Great food great service good price recommend for couple, single and families. We were there late and the still had the full menu available.

Yesterday, 2/17 at 1:30 pm was the first time eating in this restaurant in almost a year. They have changed managers a few years ago and the facilities have gone down hill. Three lights were out in the dining room; tiles were missing from under the urinal in the men's room; you could see by the prep-cooler that the wall had been cut out and exposed what appears to be a moldy area. Overall cleanliness wasn't there. Wife received cold fries. My baked squash casserole tasted old and my potatoes we cold. Part of this could have been the time of day. The chicken fried steak was about half the usual size, and yes it was the full size portion. Overall, the prices have gone up and some of the higher priced food items seem to have seen portion reductions (confirmed by conversation overheard between waiter and customer regarding his order). Service was good, but just wasn't the same place it had been in the past. read more

Service was really nice. Home style food was excellent. Portions were huge! Was recommended by the staff at Comfort Inn and was definitely a great one! read more

The server said they were out of rolls and so I called for the manager and he said the same thing. Not giving me a clear answer when all I want is rolls I mean who idea was it to not make rolls read more

Wasn't impressed. We kept waiting on our rolls. After all, the waiter brought our bread plates out. When he said he would be back with our drink order, my husband said, "and the rolls!" He smiled and walked away. When our meal showed up and still no rolls my husband asked him if we were going to get any. He told we had to specifically ask for the rolls as they no longer just bring them out. Well, why bring bread plates if your not bringing bread?! When our food finally arrived, my husband's baked potato wasn't hot enough to melt the butter. My mashed potatoes were lukewarm and the green beans were cold. On the plus side, he said his steak was perfect and my chicken fried steak was excellent as usual. When we finally got our rolls, they were hot out of the oven! I will eat there again because the food is usually better than this. When the manager came by, I voiced my disappointment so hopefully this was just an off night. read more

Oh my goodness. I'm in town for work I wanted a real meal. I'm so glad I decided on Cotton Patch. I got it to go but I still received excellent service. I got the country fried steak, green beans, mac and cheese. I ordered the butter cake. The food was amazing the cake was moist and scrumptious actually. I recommend this place to anyone. read more

You order stuff they pack it , I had DoorDash deliver , called because some items were missing, sure they tell me come pick it up, I get my ass over here then they tell me they forgot they were out of that item. So... I ask hey did you guys credit me for the first item, when DoorDash texted me and said hey they don't have this. No... they had not. Now she's trying to reimburse me for the entree that was missing the main item. Confused? Me too read more

Two week ago me and a friend went to eat at the only few places in town that is still open. One of them is this. I had chicken & dumplings, green beans, broccoli and rice casserole and cinnamon apples for dessert, Every thing was good but when you order chicken and dumplings and they come out cold. Wrong- so very, anyway. It will be along time before I step back into your restaurant. read more

We went to lunch here Have ate here before mainly when visiting area I always order the chicken fried steak and it never disappoints .I recommend this restaurant when ever you happen to be in or near plainview I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

In town today with a friend and after 10 years of not eating here I decided to give Cotton Patch another try. I ordered the Monday lunch special, Beef tips with brown mushroom gravy served over a bed of rice. Sides were Green Beans and Kernel Corn. My friend ordered the Hamburger Steak with melted cheese on top and a double portion of Broccoli. After what seemed like a long wait our food arrived. Hahaha! My Beef tips and brown mushroom gravy over rice was a watery soup. Someone doesn't know that your suppose to actually drain the rice before it's served. No kidding, it was a soup. Putting a fork into my Beef tips was the next disappointment. Tough as shoe leather. Way over cooked and/or re-cooked. Can't leave the rice just yet, it was under-cooked. Nothing tender here. Green Beans and Kernel corn were served in tiny bowls, had no seasoning, and were cool when they hit the table. My friends Hamburger Steak was surprisingly bland a required a massive amount of ketchup to drive the flavor value up. His broccoli was ok considering. Disappointed I ate here again but definitely not surprised. Not Recommended! read more

A year ago, this would've been a bad review. But a bad review wouldn't have been fair. I've eaten here many times since I was a boy. That was the only time that I ran into poor service. It's been fixed. Compliments to the new management. Staff is great and the food is what you'd expect and prepared well. read more
