    Philly cheese stake
    Amelia L.

    Food was delicious, the service was excellent and it ambulance was like a vintage dinner. Very highly recommended.

    A good solid breakfast diner. Spacious, clean, big room in the back for meetings. Everything I ate(egg, bacon, sausage link, and pancake) tasted good. I also ordered a biscuit and (sausage-less) gravy. In another review, the biscuits were described as ''cat's-head biscuits.'' That was a new phrase for me and the waitress never heard of it either, nor had my friend from Oklahoma. Google to the rescue! It means a biscuit as big as a cat's head. Mine was a normal size so maybe it was the size of a small cat's head. In any case, it was light and very tasty. The gravy was yummy too.

    If you like Divey-Diners; you'll love this place! Good home cooking, served in large portions, by friendly waitresses - at fair prices! (Everything I want for brunch!) The Country Fried Steak is great for dinner, but I really enjoyed the Country Fried Steak Breakfast - smaller steak with 2 eggs, hash browns, 2 cat-head biscuits, and gravy!! Of course; even the simple egg breakfast comes with sides like bacon or sausage, waffle or toast or biscuits, grits or oatmeal, etc.. Several members of our party ate varieties like this, and they were all good. The dry & crispy thick-sliced bacon is worth stopping for, even if you aren't hungry (crispy bacon is life)! Party room in back may be reserved for large parties - worked great for my family bday brunch! I'll be back for more crispy bacon!

    Just driving through found this place on yelp definitely wouldn't have found it otherwise, nor would have driven out of my way to come here. Decent food from a small town locally owned and ran restaurant. Nice friendly service. I think this area is interesting but we did have a decent meal.meal and good service. Homemade onion rings, homemade fries pretty good Burger. My sandwich had a good flavor just a little soggy.

    Quaint.

    I really wanted to like this place based on previous yelpers and my love of local favorites. We stopped in for breakfast and there were a number of locals having coffee and chatting. On the plus side the price of the basic egg breakfasts are cheap! My wife's scrambled eggs and toast with sausage...$3.99. Wow. I ordered the scattered hash browns and they turned out to be not so great in price or product. For $10.99 I expected something much bigger than what I got based on the other menu choices and the description. They were described as hash browns with jalapeños, tomatoes, onions, bell peppers,and ham. If it had all those things they were chopped so small I could not see them and it must all be canned not fresh. It just looked sad. The cheese on top looked like bagged pre-shredded cheese and was not even melted, just sitting in a pile on top. They were warm, not hot. It came with two eggs and as I write this I realize it was supposed to have bacon or sausage and it came with neither. I don't remember being asked which I wanted either. I substituted toast for the biscuits and gravy. Mistake. The toast was soggy with butter. Yuck. The coffee was pretty good. Everyone there was very friendly and I can only hope that maybe lunch is their strong point but breakfast was very disappointing overall so just can't recommend it here.

    We came here for breakfast as we were traveling through and looked this place up on Yelp. It was very good food and perfect portions and the staff very friendly. It's a quaint little diner and nice to support something that feels local and not one of the big chains. It's definitely worth checking out you won't be disappointed.

    I really liked the way sausage patties were cooked. Biscuits were very good with quite tasty pancakes and scrambled eggs!!

We discovered them about 8 months ago while traveling through, needing some less processed options than typical eatout food, and tried it. Sooo glad we did! So now that we're in the area again we knew this is where we wanted to go. We even ordered extra meals to take with us for tomorrow! Ignore the lower star reviews bc they have nothing to do with quality (and no, the food is not bland)! If you want fancy highly processed and over seasoned gut burning food, don't go here - go to an impersonal restaurant serving commercial processed foods. Mother Kelley's is true homestyle flavors, meaning it's not fancy but it's home cooked comfort food (real ingredients) like my grandmother's was (mid 20th century); you'll love it!

Portions are huge, the staff greet you the moment you walk in, and after a few visits, I swear they'll have to roll me out the door (and I'll be smiling the whole way). The fried pickles and cheese curds? Absolutely incredible--perfectly crispy on the outside and addictive. The pancakes are massive yet light and fluffy, the bacon is perfectly crispy, and my coffee cup never runs dry. Honestly, with all this good food, they were seducing me into doing a happy dance right there at the table. Now, back to the star of the show: that chicken fried steak. It's huge, the meat is melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the coating is seasoned perfectly--crispy enough that even my leftovers stayed crunchy after days in the fridge and a spin in the microwave. Pure comfort food bliss. And let's not forget the biscuits and gravy--heavenly! I got my gravy on the side so I could dip both my biscuit and my chicken fried steak. Best decision ever. Texas Chuck Wagon is comfort food done right, with service that makes you feel like family. I'll be back... again and again (and again).
