This is the kinda place where it's family run and owned and they really treat all their guests like family. Our server was simply amazing and super on top of things. I think what I really liked best about this place was that it really had a cowboy western feel. The patriarch, (I think) in addition to wearing a cowboy hat, was going around talking to his patrons, something you don't see very often in small locally owned restaurants. I think one thing that stuck out about my meal was the biscuit. Sweet baby Jesus, that was a biscuit to remember. It was huge, fluffy, and so good, you didn't need gravy or anything on it. If you're passing though Roswell and need breakfast, this is your place! read more

So glad I chose to go here for breakfast. Great friendly local place. Waitress (Sloane) was very personable. I sat at the bar and talked to some great local people who have me a list of places to see and go eat. Food and coffee was good. Would go back in a heartbeat if I'm ever passing thru Roswell. read more

Been in town for work for 4 months and have been trying out different breakfast spots almost every weekend. Today I came across this gem. The staff was extremely friendly from the moment I walked in until the time I left. I ordered the Chicken Biscuits n Taters and it was AMAZING! This place Instantly became my favorite breakfast spot here in town! Don't hesitate to try it! read more

Small and crowded cafe for a good reason, the food is delicious! The four of us sat at the communal table and met some Canadians and later locals who gave us some tips of other things to check out in the area. I had a breakfast burrito with green chili sauce on the side, my son had chicken strips, daughter had a patty melt and husband had a fried steak sandwich. It was all delicious! We later split a piece of cherry pie and hummingbird cake. Do yourself a favor and order a dessert! Staff were also very friendly. This out of towner highly recommends! read more

It has really cheap breakfast, we went on sunday so the place was at his fullest but ir was wort it

Great place for breakfast before hitting the Aliens on Main Street. While green chile is usually my favorite in New Mexico cuisine, the red chile (Revolver) was far superior to the green...extremely delicious on the Spanish Omelette (which also has green chiles inside. The tortillas tasted like they came our of a bag. Otherwise, the food tasted clean and fresh. The Cowboy Cafe is small, so be prepared to wait to get a table and it may take awhile to get food after ordering. read more

A really great place to get some home-style country food and excellent pies! The only downside to this place is the size! Not very much space for large groups or families but they do there best to accommodate you. My personal favorite is the hamburger steak with onions. It reminds me of my childhood and my mother's cooking. They also have an awesome challenge burger called the cowboss which i have not attempted yet but looks great! read more

Every portion is better then your head. And they aren't just big but tasty too. The desserts are always fresh and amazing. The cornbread is some of the best in town. If you ever need to feel full, this is the place. read more

My dad and I spent the night in Roswell and stopped here for breakfast before we left. We both had the Hungry Cowboy Breakfast and it was labeled 17.95 on the menu. We also had coffee. While ordering she gave us two choices of gravy and two choices of bacon. We got our food and it was really good. Then we get our bill and we were charged extra for the gravy and the bacon not being told it was extra and our final bill was $50 then charged a convenience fee for running my card. The food was really good but we thought it was way over priced. read more

Great place for breakfast but go hingey!! They see e alot of food and the pancakes are bigger than the plate

Stopped at their cafe 15 minutes before closing and they graciously invited us in when we asked if they were still serving. Service was excellent and the food was delicious! We will tell our friends about this country cafe! read more

We were driving from Carlsbad NM to Flagstaff and stopped for breakfast. We pulled up and took a look and were convinced that the place was out of business. As we headed down the street we saw an open sign and went around the block to try the door. My wife was pretty sure we were going to get sick from the looks of the outside and no cars in the gravel parking lot. The door swings open and suddenly I have a happy wife. The place has charm and the service is friendly. I had the Huevos Rancheros and I must say I was blown away. Best I have had. Add to that the hashbrowns were just the right crispyness. The pinto beans were also just perfect. read more

I had the chance to dine here during vacation. The green chilli burger was transcendent! The cake was delightful as well!

Highly recommend the Cowboy Cafe. I was driving through Roswell and discovered it on Yelp. Great feel and cafe food.

After a rough first part of the day, my husband and I were wanting to get something good to eat. We knew we could count on Cowboy Cafe for just that but it was 10 minutes until closing time. Normally the other restaurants in town would make their displeasure known. Were we ever surprised at the cheerful welcome we received when we walked in. My husband even asked if it was okay because we didn't want to inconvenience anyone. The waitress let us know it was absolutely ok. This was like a breath of fresh air. Since moving to NM, I've struggled finding good customer service. Seems like Cowboy Cafe makes it their priority....and of course good food. read more

Great food, bacon was good, best coffee ever had. Gotta check out the painting in the bathroom while you're there.

The steak was over cooked, but the hashbrowns were good. My daughter country fried steak was very dry and chewy. So many flies and it was gross. All over the condiment especially on the ketchup bottle left in the table. No sure if because my family and I are Hispanic services wasn't very good. Everyone around us got asked several time if they need anything or if they were okay.. read more

Best place in Roswell!!! Amazing food such neat atmosphere! We had a group of 8 and they were so accommodating and sweet!!

Mostly this is standard breakfast and lunch offerings, except for the cheeseburger salad. It was definitely unique and well worth a try. This is a locals type of place and a nice place to get a feel for the town. read more

Drove through Roswell this morning and found this gem. from the get go I liked the feel of this place. Walking in the staff are welcoming and eager to please. The decor is what you would expect with a name like Cowboy Cafe. I had the biscuits and gravy and on the recommendation of our waitress had the sausage added for a bit of spice and she was spot on! What a great meal I will make it a point to stop in here when I am in town. The only issue and reason I did not leave a fifth star was the place is much smaller than the parking lot appears. Get there early if you want a seat we had lucked out and walked in just before a rush and were able to be seated straight away otherwise we would of had to wait. Well worth the wait though. read more

The food was amazing !! I mean we were outside but the chicken biscuit was FIREEEEE ! Literally my fav.

I ordered the hog slop and it was awesome! Very unique place. It was perfect for someone like me who was just passing through town that morning. Not a great amount of room to work with is the only downside. read more

Happen to pass thru Roswell, stayed overnight and was looking for breakfast before a trip to the UFO Museum then back on the road. I wanted to go to one of local hangouts and this one fits that. So I had the "Alien Omelette." It was spicy but good. I would recommend this unique restaurant. Good friendly service too! read more
