Great diner. Good service, friendly service, consistent tasty food. Breakfast all day with a classic Slinger on the menu. All you can eat fish and shrimp on Friday night is a spectacular bargain. read more

Granny Franny's is a genuinely memorable local eatery that is easy to recommend, be it for breakfast or dinner. Tasty french toast or decadent burgers, they have choices a plenty to satisfy even the choosiest of diners. Make sure to have a good look at the pies and other goodies ready to take home near the register on your way out! Warning During my visit I couldn't help but notice that some of the other patrons you are likely to sit near, can be of the older particularly cynical and just plain rude variety. (ie: one older gentleman got EXACTLY what he ordered [I listened to him order it], then caused a scene because he decided it just wasn't as good as he felt it should be... Like, really?) Do try to overlook the scoffing or general ridicule you might hear from these other nearby patrons. This is one of very few locations where I felt genuinely very sympathetic to the employees and their willingness to endure these types of patrons, as they attempted the unattainable task of appeasing them. read more

Food was good and the waitress was very nice and went over the menu and specials. Food was plentiful and tastes delicious. Plenty of desserts to choose from. The restaurant was nicely decorated with a farmhouse theme that once was a gas station. Definitely will be back! read more

We went to dinner with friends yesterday and our friends had checked the website for pricing. When we arrived and were given menus the pricing was significantly different from what the website indicated. We placed our orders and i specifically ordered the chopped steak meal. When the meal came out, what was served was a sirloin steak that was dry and tough. When I told the server this wasn't what I ordered, I was informed that was what was prepared. When we got the bill, not only was the food not edible they charged me more for the steak. When i pointed out this fact the little teenaged manager said the pricing was what it was. She was rude and arrogant, obviously had no formal customer service training not people skills for that matter. We WON'T be back!! read more

I was going to grab some lunch after visiting St Francois State Park on a Monday. The name is accurate because the place smells pretty bad. I decided just to grab some pie to go, but nobody was able to help me even though there were only 3 tables seated in the restaurant. I said hi to a server behind the counter, but she was too busy on the computer. Eventually she asked what I wanted, then said it would be a while before she could help me. Another server walked up to the counter and ignored me. I eventually just left. read more

We stopped by for breakfast... a good down home atmosphere with a welcoming "seat yourself." The servers work hard to bring good good food at a good price! read more

Great Breakfast!! Hands down the best breakfast I've had! My son had the stacker and loved it read more

Well, I'm not a smoker. The food is OK but half the room is smoky and the other half is non-smoking of course when they all start smoking all drips over into the non-smoking area so if you're a non-smoker, I would not recommend this restaurant if you're a non-smoker I had breakfast there, but I don't think I'll be back unless the restaurants empty of smokers read more

Awesome waitress! Food was great. Home cooked breakfast is hard to find these days. When on vacation I try to find the local dining places rather than corporations. The prorations were plenty. Price was right where it should be. The waitress was fantastic. And the food was GREAT. if you are in the area definitely stop and give it a try. The only thing that might be a put off for some is that this restaurant still offers smoking or non smoking. read more

I love small mom and pop places like this. Good food pleasant staff. Drove 45 miles to get here. We will be coming back read more

Great breakfast great service this place also still offers smoking or non smoking. Place was clean. Great menu items and great prices. If you like a good hole in the wall I would tell you to stop in and give it a try read more

Place was meh, the food was good for the price. The wait was insane for 6 people, we waiting 50 or so minutes for food and the people who were next to us waited 20 or less. It was not worth the wait, sides were forgotten and food came out slowly. I'd recommend it if you want to take a long rest. We had 6 people but that shouldn't explain almost the hour wait we had. Place has two sides, one for smoking and one not. Strong smell of cigarettes, but that makes sense. Place is connected to an old gas station which looks really run down, there was an old gas pump hanging on the ground which could pop a tire. Wouldn't recommend the place. read more

A lot of cigarette smoke..... The food was decent. The service was great. The potatoes were a bit greasy and bland but the eggs were cooked perfectly and the pancakes were good. However, the restaurant is basically a big open room with one half smoking and the other half non-smoking. We took our kids for breakfast and sat in "non-smoking" but while we were there several people came in and were smoking in the other half of the room, so at that point we were pretty much eating breakfast in a room full of cigarette smoke. We just ate quickly and left. If cigarette smoke doesn't bother you, you may like it, but we won't be back and wish we would have known about the smoking. read more

they have great food and my mom works their so I get free food and their cake is really good u need to try it. read more

Granny Franny's - Me aj - Diners Near Me - De Soto, Missouri

This place is genuinely the worst dining experience I've ever had. If I could give a zero star review I would. To start, it's an old gas station. Seedy to say the least. The place wreaked of cigarette smoke, but I gave it a shot anyway. Wrong choice on my part. The pancakes tasted like curdled milk, the eggs had an indescribable bad taste and flooded the plate because they were undercooked, the gravy was tasteless and had the consistency of soup. The only good part of the food was the biscuit I had. And to top it off, I was given a dirty fork to eat it all with. This place makes me sad. Don't come here if you have taste buds and a stomach read more

My advice from personal experience is...just stay home and cook it yourself! I'll post more later when I have time to really go into detail regarding the service and food. Update with photo: I asked for a medium rare steak. It was thin, over cooked and tough. The steak and potatoes had no seasoning or good flavor. I think the grease wasn't hot enough to cook the potatoes because it soaked right into them. The eggs and toast...well who can screw those up unless you burn them, right? At least the eggs were over easy like I wanted. Hubby didn't love his food either (no photo), but he did say the gravy was good. His hash browns were like my potato slices, no seasoning or good flavor. I honestly thought I was getting normal cubed fried potatoes. The place smelled of cigarette smoke. It took the waitress a while to greet us then get our coffee and water. Afterward it took even longer for her to come take our order. She didn't seem like she gave to craps about being there. She wasn't customer service friendly and she had no suggestions on what were popular dishes. After taking our order she was supposed to bring us more coffee and water. It took a long time for her to simply bring our food and by that time it was basically warm. After we ate then we had to get her attention to ask for the bill at which time she mentioned the extra coffee and water we never got. We simply told her not to bother. My husband still tipped a low tip and that was being kind. This was one of the worst services we've ever had! I definitely have a greater appreciation for all the waiters and waitresses who kicked ass at their jobs and am so glad we tipped them well because in comparison to this their +20% we customarily give was definitely worth it and earned! read more

Granny Franny's - Steak & Eggs - Diners Near Me - De Soto, Missouri

This was our first time going to Granny Frannys. Recommended highly by several people I've known and worked with, we decided to get a late breakfast shortly before noon. The parking lot was packed but we were able to seat ourselves right away without a wait. The booth was spacious and clean. Our waitress was delightful and despite tending to many tables, she was to us quickly. The coffee here was piping hot and fresh, quite delicious actually. I decided on the big boy breakfast which I felt was a complete bargain for $6.99 to get a three egg breakfast with bacon, toast, home fries, a biscuit and gravy. Absolutely couldn't eat it all, which was a shame for how good it was. The biscuit in that biscuit and gravy was velvety soft and fresh. The gravy was not overly seasoned. It was probably one of the best BnGs I've ever had. My eggs were cooked nicely. The only thing we didn't care for was the smoking allowed. Walking out smelling like a cigarette isn't very nice. read more

Granny Franny's - The Big Boy breakfast.... A hearty meal! - Diners Near Me - De Soto, Missouri

We stayed at the Holiday Inn Resort just down the street and decided to check this place out. So glad we did! It's pretty much the epitome of a small town diner. The food was delicious and served fresh, prices were very affordable, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We came back the next day for brunch round two and received a similar experience. read more

The food is good and the people are nice. We enjoyed eating here recently and would go back.

This is one of my favorite places to eat. Great breakfast, burgers, BLT, and specials. I've never been disappointed!!

The Best home town cafe since Syl's cafe closed in the 90's. Every thing on the menu is great and the daily specials are homemade and to die for. The whole entire staff are so friendly and I just feel at home and relaxed every time I go! Love it read more

Granny Franny's was on the way to our destination, so we popped in to pick up supper. Oh my goodness, it was wonderful. Comfort food, which we needed after driving a good part of the day. Meatloaf with 3 sides and chicken fried steak with 3 sides. Cooked perfect. With tip, under $25.00. Servings were so large, part of my supper will be breakfast. Folks were very friendly. If you are traveling through or live close, this would be an excellent place for any meal of the day. read more

Looks like a common place for locals. Nice atmosphere. The hamburger was delicious and bun seemed fresh that day. My husband had the fried chicken and mashed potatoes, which he said "it hit the spot!" IT was all freshly cooked and served well. Very friendly. I want to go back next and try the breakfast!! read more

This was a gas station. I waited all night to go have some breakfast made by Granny. My granny hasn't cooked me breakfast in 25 years. All to find a gas station. read more

Stopped in here today and the overwhelming smell of cigarette smoke was noticeable before even opening the front door. I refuse to support businesses that allow smoking indoors. read more

I came to the holiday inn resort down the street and they recommended this place and I must say this has been the best recommendation! The service was excellent, the food was delicious and it was very affordable!! I'm mad I didn't know about this place earlier! I loved it! I recommend to everyone around the area! read more

Fantastic hot wings! We stop in here for them every time we're down south visiting my guy's sister. The sauce is flavorful without excessive heat. We split the 20 count with Franks Red Hot sauce and lots of blue cheese, plus an order of fried green beans and 2 iced teas. Bill was around $25. Not familiar with the rest of their menu but other customers seemed excited about the all-you-can-eat fried chicken special on a Sunday afternoon. read more

The fried chicken was delicious until I pulled a extremely long strand of hair from my chicken thigh. My appetite was ruined and the manager didn't see fit to refund my money. Too bad I can't repeat business. The food was yummy. ( I wish if places didn't want to serve People of Color they'd just put a lawn jockey out front) read more

We didn't notice the flies till we had ordered. The food came and we had to use our napkins to cover our food to keep the flies from landing on it. But wait....I looked up and saw a man SMOKING right by the kitchen. I couldn't believe that any restaurant would allow that. Our waitress had been talking to him so I'm sure she was aware and ok with it. Now I don't want to eat anything that a fly has been on and definitely nothing that comes out of a kitchen that has cigarette smoke flowing into it. As we were leaving the man lit up another cigarette. I don't know if he's the owner, an employee or just a customer. Regardless it's dirty, gross, and disrespectful. read more

Visited here for breakfast before Cardinals home opener. We went at about 11:15am. Food was good as always. Service as well. I had the Big Daddy, which include 3 eggs, 2 pieces of bacon, and hash brown, plus your choice of toast, and 1 biscuit with gravy. All for around 5 dollars. Great value! The bacon was too crispy for my liking though. It seemed like it may have been a little old. Eggs maybe could've been cooked a little longer too as they were slightly slimy, which seems to be pretty regular for them, but that being said, I've had them several times and I keep getting them, so they aren't slimy to the point where a picky eater like myself won't eat them. Just constructive criticism here. Also, I am a former smoker and used to love that they let people smoke in here, but non-smokers beware, this place is smokey and the walls and ceilings show it. It's a little grimey because of it. Could use some new paint and new tables and booths. They have the best chicken wings around. Both the Frank's Golden and the regular 7 alarm wings (5-alarm, 3-alarm? Some number alarm wings) are great. This place would easily have a 5 if they would update the inside and clean it up a little. I know people who won't eat there because of the looks. But I don't mind as it's very close to home and has been pretty consistently good for years. read more

Me and my girlfriend just walked in this morning to get breakfast and no tables were cleaned at all but the lady kept telling us to sit where we'd like. That really wasn't an issue for us because they were a little busy. Why really made me have to write a bad review which I rarely do for restaurants is that after waiting 10 minutes at the table and not even getting a menu, an older couple walks in and gets served right away. Just because we're a younger crowd doesn't mean you can just put us off. We will not be back terrible customer service read more

I have to start with the wings!! I read here that this place has good wings, and I'm sure that's true if you're not expecting or wanting hot buffalo wings. The wings themselves were jumbo & delicious, BUT that sauce was either not Franks or it was a little bit of Frank's mixed with a lot of sweet stuff. Unimpressed with them. Burgers are fantastic, I split one with my sister & she too was very pleased. The service was shaky. She was trying her best, but she only had 3 tables & seemed really overwhelmed. Maybe she has other job responsibilities that I'm not aware of & those were requiring a lot of attention too, idk. She had a great attitude, just not the best server. read more

Are you hungry and want Breakfast? Then look no further. Granny Franny's knows what you want and you want the "Big Daddy"! What a meal! And what a price!
