Fried catfish, carrots and black eyed peas
Heather A.

Quick service, food was good and fresh. The waitress seemed a little shy, couldn't hear her and she mumbled but was attentive and we were happy overall

Greetings!!

Chicken Fried Steak and okra is really good! Mashed potatoes are not good taste like hospital food. Bathroom doors need to be wiped down. Service is decent and restaurant is clean.

Huge crispy chicken salad and the rolls are so moist and delicious!! Super nice waitress Marisa!!!!

You'll be blessed if Samantha serves your table!

We've been to this cafe many times over the years. The food is decent, and the wait staff is pleasant. Today's lunch was exceptional! From our server, the cheerful, efficient, respectful Samantha to the food, I thought it all worked to fuel us quickly to get back on the road. As you can see from my photos, the steak was a good thickness. The fried catfish was fresh and crunchy, with house-made tartar sauce that had a nice amount of pickle pieces. Samantha checked on us and made us feel welcome.

Fettuccine Alfredo with charbroiled chicken was delicious and had good service when I called in the order for pick up.

**This place does NOT serve breakfast -- something to keep in mind if you're visiting!** My fiancé and I stopped in for a bite while we're passing through to our wedding venue. Since it opens at 10:00, we were hoping for some breakfast -- but the only serve lunch. Not a big deal, but a little disappointing. We had the friend zucchini, the chicken fried steak sandwich with fries, the burger with fries, and coffee. The coffee is some of the worst I've ever had -- definitely avoid! It's weak and just tastes like hot water. The rest of the food was pretty good. Nothing stunning, but not bad either. The fries were the best part of everything we tried. The service was decent and we got our food quickly. The restaurant itself is pretty dated, but it's clean -- everything you can expect from an old-fashioned Southern cafe. There's also a 3% upcharge on all tickets if you pay with card instead of cash. Wasn't a big fan of that either. All in all, nothing terrible, but nothing impressive.

Fried pork chop w masked potatoes
Pat G.

Stopped here on my way to the coast and had a fantastic experience! I ordered the lunch portion of the pork chop, and my husband had the lunch portion of the chicken fried steak. Both dishes came with huge portions and were absolutely delicious. The breading on the chicken fried steak was perfectly seasoned. The service was excellent, and the staff was very attentive. I highly recommend this place. Their menu has a wide variety of options, so there's something for everyone.

Chicken fried steak

Found this place on the way home from Galveston. The food came out piping hot, and super tasty! Our waitress was very kind and attentive. But the star of the show had to be the massive chicken tenders. So crispy and delicious!

Bunch of car club friends were looking for grub between Austin and Jefferson, Texas. We picked Hearne as our meet up spot for lunch. Really nice Texana style restaurant with lots to choose from. Might as well have some complimentary cornbread and rolls! Our table totally destroyed the basket of bread; prolly could have eaten three baskets lol. I had fried catfish with mashed taters (brown gravy) and fried okra. Good stuff except I prefer dill to sweet pickles in my tartar sauce. GF had the chopped steak topped with grilled onions and brown gravy. Sides for her were red beans and rice and spinach (canned). Also in photos my buddy's modded chef salad with blackened fish. Very few complaints and full stomachs as we headed further east. Great service too. See yall next trip!

Excellent choice for a road meal on the way through Hearne. Chicken fried steak was the best I've ever had in my 60 yrs.

Food is homemade and yummy! We were seated right away and order taken by a friendly & welcoming…read morewaitress. The menu is on the walls or you can scan the QR code online. My open faced chili burger and onion rings were excellent and not over served. My husband had the chicken fried steak special. The gravy was super yummy and the steak tender. Others in our party ordered bacon & eggs. The bacon is SUPER yummy! We would definitely return. Service was friendly and quick, but not so quick that we suspected microwave use. The ambiance is diner style in a caboose and comfortable. The restroom was very clean. This is out in a small town and worth going out of your way to dine there!!!!

What happened to the classic diner experience? The days of old-school hospitality, homemade comfort…read morefood, and genuine service seem to be slowly fading away. Unfortunately, this visit felt more like convenience than cooking. The mashed potatoes, corn, and even the roll have been reheated in a microwave. I also watched a meatloaf dinner taken out of the microwave and then returned into it. I hope it wasnt served later. The country-fried chicken tasted and looked like a frozen, pre-made product rather than something freshly prepared. I say this with confidence as the server/cook just grabbed it out a drawer and threw it in fryer. The gravy had the most flavor on the plate, although it tasted like a standard mix rather than house-made. The rest of the meal was bland and forgettable. The customer service wasn't rude, but it felt robotic--there was very little warmth, personality, or the kind of hospitality that makes a neighborhood diner special. I came hoping for a home-cooked meal and that nostalgic diner charm. Instead, I left wishing more restaurants would bring back the pride, care, and personal touch that once defined the diner experience

Don't you hate it when you're going through the drive through and they forget to put something in…read moreyour bag! Urrrrgh! At least I caught it before I drove off. So I had to park get out go in and get my hot mustard sauce... to top it off I had to wait in line as there was no one really there to help. So why the 4 stars you ask... THE FRIES I GOT WERE FRESH! HOT! CRISPY! AND DELECTABLE! I have not eaten at a McDonalds in years but if I could get fries like these every time, I would come daily! Ohhhh my Goddie toooo Hottie!! I love these fries when they are fresh!! They were so hot I almost couldn't eat them... almost... lol. Good fries will make up for a lot of things in this world... wont they?!

This is the most disrespectful Mickey D's I've ever been at in my 64 years of living the employees…read morein the Drive-Thru are rude the cooks come through and look and see who you are to determine so they give you something that's probably spoiled and distasteful cold and hard in the middle in my chicken nuggets I had to throw them out the window my husband threw up they taste like they was cooked about some roach spray I'm still sick at my stomach 4 hours later this spot is the spot to always pass because if you care about your health you'll realize these people here they are careless may God be with them all
