I dropped in for Brunch the other day. The outward appearance looked super cute with a Western motif. I ordered the 2+2 (2 eggs, 2 pancakes, 2 bacon & 2 sausage) plenty of food for a hungry tummy. Overall the food was hot and delicious although I will honestly say the pancakes were as big as my head. read more

Cowgirl Cafe - Inside with a great American flag - Diners Near Me - Atascadero, California

A great find. Food (I had breakfast) was really good with large potions, reasonably priced and the service was excellent. I had TWO servers come by and ask if I needed more water or coffee. I will certainly come back read more

I hate giving bad reviews because I don't know what it is like to walk in someone else's shoes, but... Fairly crowded lunch on Tuesday. Only one server (who was also the cashier). I don't know how she did it. But everyone felt just cringe for her. Meals were ok but lackluster. Service was understandably "strained." My first (and last) time here. Sad. (PS: the toilets reeked of raw sewage. Dangerous!). Avoid this one folks. read more

Food was mid, service was worse. People showed up after and got their food before us. Wasn't until I said something that our food was brought to us. As we were at the register my wife told me that our server and another were indirectly talking about me in a passive-aggressive tone to each other in front of my wife. We are not locals but my family is and I 100% will not be recommending this place to them. read more

Cowgirl Cafe - Diet Plate delicious!!! - Diners Near Me - Atascadero, California

Hubby and I had an event rental drop off this weekend in Atascadero. We were recommended this place for breakfast. I didn't take any pictures but the food was really good. I got eggs, home fries, and toast. The potatoes here were SO good! Crispy outside, soft on the inside. Hubby had pork chops and eggs, home fries, and toast. He also loved the potatoes. The portions of the pork chops were huge! He could only eat one and we needed a box for the remaining pork chop and potatoes. The service was also great. We were seated right away, they promptly took our drink order. The waitress was very friendly. Food came out at a decent time. The price was pretty decent too. Our bill for the two of us was $45. Where we eat breakfast at home in Santa Maria, we normally spend $60. I would definitely go here again if I'm in Atascadero again. read more

Cowgirl Cafe - Pancakes combo and dice ham and eggs. - Diners Near Me - Atascadero, California

Best Mushroom Cheeseburger ever!! Wow! The bun was light and airy, generous portions of mushrooms and pickles, freshly sliced tomato and lettuce was very crisp, generous amount of onions. This was a burger I would've made at home, delicious I've never seen portions like this since the 1980s!!Awesome! Of course the burger itself was big(1/3lb) delicious and juicy, and served with so many fries- cooked to perfection!! Diners Do Not do that these days! Prices very affordable , this plate was $13.95 most diners charge over $20 and give you half the amount that was served here -with less quality as well--not this place!! I travel through this area maybe twice a year --I will now always stop here to eat, A must go to!! read more

The ambiance in the Cowgirl Cafe is easy going. Warmth and at-home is what the restaurant seems to want their guests to feel upon entering and enjoying a good meal. Everywhere one looks, there are photos and historical articles & items, from rustic to modern country - incorporating the past and present country life. The service was a little slow, but cordial and attentive. The restaurant is very clean with table or booth seating options. Pastrami Burger - moist hamburger with tender pastrami on a fresh bun. Really enjoyed this selection. Turkey Avocado Bacon Club Sandwich - good size sandwich with fresh, crisp ingredients. Delicious. We were impressed with our food selections as the portions were generous and flavorful. We would return when in the area. read more

Very spacious and comfortable. Food is fresh and delicious; staff is friendly and cheerful. The waitress looked so cute in her Cowgirl Cafe t-shirt I had to buy one for my wife. She wanted the pink, but they only had the blue in her size. read more

We wanted to go somewhere different for breakfast and have gone to cowgirl cafe in Nipomo numerous times, so we decided to try the Atascadero location out. The service was great and the food was good. Even though it was super busy, the service did not fail. Great customer service which lacks in most places these days. I really like the ambience at those location. It is also a lot bigger than it looks from the outside. read more

Good food , Great service Love this place , we eat there every week Charlie is awesome Yesterdays Beef dip was crazy good

This was our first time at this location. We moved here during Covid from South County. This cute western style restaurant never disappoints. Friendly staff and great food. We've been coming to this cafe for almost 30 years first in Pismo Beach and then Nipomo. The food is always delicious and no shrinkage (portion size) like everywhere else. The price is more than reasonable. We even came in about 45 minutes before close and we were never rushed. So happy to have this here! read more

Came here cause we were craving a chicken fried steak. We were greeted right away. After sitting down, We ordered a Bloody Mary with our meal. The Bloody Mary was great and just what we needed after a night out. The chicken fried steak came out hot, crispy with just the right amount of gravy. I also ordered a side of biscuits and gravy. All of it was good and hit the spot. Needless to say we were satisfied with our meal. Will come back when the cravings come back. read more

I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone! The food was awful, and made my daughter very sick! Please stay away! Waitress was having a bad day I think so service was below standards! Over priced! read more

Located on El Camino, in the Food 4 Less shopping center, is Cowgirl Cafe. When we were in South County, we went to the Nipomo location a lot. This was the first time to this location. There was plenty of parking and the restaurant is huge! Very deceiving. It's got that down home, country vibe. The staff was running around and making sure people were good. I ordered the OJ, Veggie Omelette w/home fries, sourdough toast, and homemade salsa. I also, partaken in a short stack. Everything was good. The Oj came in a Mason Jar, was sweet and tart. The veggie omelette was cheesy and every bite had vibrance from the different veggies. The home fries were big chunked, crispy outside and fluffy inside. The toast was toast. The homemade salsa reminded me of Jacko's in Nipomo. Chunky Tomato forward type. The pancakes were nicely cooked with great fluff. Overall, very good and everyone enjoyed themselves in my party. read more

Quick breakfast stop with my brother. Service outstanding. Food cooled perfectly and the best gravy I've had in awhile at a breakfast spot. Kind of an ever so slight chicken flavor and good seasonings. I had corned beef hash and eggs. Eggs over medium. Over all, always a good choice for quick and tasty food. I've o my ever had breakfast here - so can't comment on other meals! read more

Superb. Went in around 9am and was seated right away. Said we wanted a booth and we got a booth. Took our order and food was out in about 5 to 6 minutes, super quick. Kept coming by to fill our coffees and make sure everything was okay. Food was delicious, could not believe it. Every bite was amazing. Good work chefs. Noticed everyone around us getting their food just as quick so that is really nice. Parking lot is a good size. Really cool vibe inside too. read more

Quality of food is crap. Don't waste your time or money go to denny's. Staff is very untrained and every visit seems to be worse then the prior visit. Support your local small business. read more

Wonderful, friendly family style home cooking with a little western thyme . Great Chicken Fried Steak tender and flavorful. French Toast was just the right size and delicious. Server was attentive and coffee at the ready. Hidden Gem of a place easy to get to from 101. read more

To Tamara E who wrote a horrible review about an extremely professional and efficient worker. It was obvious she wasn't talking to you! She was talking and having playful gestures with her friends. I'd advise you to stay in your own lane, which might be hard for you to do. April is one of the hardest working ,most considerate and courteous people I've met. BTW, cowgirl has great food! read more

Used to be great. Subpar now. I ordered egg white bacon mushroom cheese omelet with swiss and added spinach, homefries, dry english muffin - crispy. I received no swiss, almost untoasted english muffin, homefries not cooked. I've never done a yelp interview, but this was so bad that it warrants one. Salt and pepper shakers were GROSSLY dirty. Must miss. I am a local who will never go back. read more

I came in last Saturday for breakfast with my daughter. I had the senior breakfast for $9.95, she had the Denver omelet and an iced tea. The bill was $39.89? Can someone explain that? I did not make a big deal about it at the time, but I just want to know if the Denver omelets at $27.00? read more

I'm a regular at Cowgirl Cafe. This is my local quiet spot for me and breakfast time. Started going here when I found out they served mimosas and Bloody Mary's. Then found out they had some Bomb home style breakfasts. Always great food. Friendly service and good portions. Outdated decor but then again it transports you back to when times were simpler. read more
