Food was great, looking for some mom and pops food this is the spot. Great Mexican/American food.

We drove by and had to stop at this little cafe. This is where the locals are going. We've been for both breakfast and lunch. It definitely has a small town cafe feel. The food is terrific! The carne guisada is tender and flavorful. I loved the veggie omelette for breakfast! The staff is friendly and one nice lady talked with us and gave us suggestions for family activities in the surrounding areas. We will definitely go back!

Lucy's Cafe is a local brunch spot. The family that runs the restaurant is very friendly and they make delicious eggs, bacon, and toast at affordable prices. I have met Lucy (the restaurant is named after her) and this is the place to visit whenever I'm in Moody. This diner also serves Mexican fare and burgers too. There's an extensive menu of items but we're usually here for breakfast. The TV is constantly tuned to the local weather channel. I guess they really like to watch the weather! The place is small and usually busy during the weekends during the brunch hours. There's never a wait though. Order your food at the counter and they will bring it to you. It's not a traditional sit down place where they take your order. Bonus points for taking credit cards. I rarely carry cash these days anyway.

Neat little cafe off the side of the road with a great breakfast inside. We had pancakes, biscuits& gravy, eggs, bacon, migas and ham. Everything was made in the back on the grill and was fantastic. Everything tastes the way it should: Hardy, flavorful and comforting. The place is run by a family and everyone worked hard to give us a great experience.

Food was fine, not great but not bad. Tortilla seemed to just be a store bought one. It's pretty pricey for breakfast, each plate was $13.99. Nice people, you order when you walk in and self serve drinks. We were staying at Mother Neff State Park and just passing through. read more

Delicious little local cafe. My team and I were working a job at Mother Neff State Park. The park recommended Lucy's to us and I am glad they did. They have specials on different days of the week. Tacos was their special of the day but I was craving a burger so I ordered the double meat cheeseburger with fries and a drink. They weren't very busy so the food came out fairly quick. The food was piping hot off the grill. It was exactly what I was hoping a little cafe that cooks the food to order and is good to the last bite. read more

My wife and I stopped in for lunch (10 mins before they closed). Ordered a chicken quesadilla "plate" and a chicken sandwich (sans onions) with a small fry. Food came out quickly; however, my chicken quesadilla had beef in it and the chicken sandwich had extra onions on it. The rice and refried beans that came with the quesadilla had been cold. Regardless, we picked off the onions and the sandwich was quite tasty. The "chicken" quesadilla was also tasty as was the side-salsa. Will try them again when passing thru. Looks like a nice family run business... read more

Drove by few times. Reviews seemed good, so decided to try. Place did not seem very clean. Should have been a red flag. No one to greet us, not sure if it was self-seating. Went to counter to find out. Grandma was working front counter. Fine, but she didn't hear very well and didn't explain how the restaurant worked so I ordered & hubby went to find a table. Food came in a reasonable time. Hubby said burrito was ok. But my BLT looked a little sad. Bread barely toasted and on first bite, bacon shattered everywhere. Had the core of the lettuce & butt of the tomato. Fries were frozen. Very disappointed. Will not return. read more

You can even use your debit or credit card when paying. Each day they have specials. They offer many types of cake. Tried them all and they are very good. The cafe is very clean. Oscar and Bertha the owners sre so very nice. Diego who does evenings, he too is a very polite young man and makes sure all the customers are happy. The prices are very reasonable.

Since I was headed toward McGregor, I decided to stop and wouldn't you know it, they were running a special on chicken fried steak. It got me "hooked on phonics" right away. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with big smiles and a warm welcome. Super friendly staff all around. I didn't waste any time...ordered my chicken fried steak as soon as my waitress, Paisley, came by (I wasn't playin' lol). Service was quick, food came out hot, and it did not disappoint. Paisley also recommended the broccoli and rice casserole, which ended up being the perfect side. Overall, the food hit the spot...I was starvin' like Marvin, lol . If you're ever in town or just passing through, this is a cute little place worth stopping at. I'll definitely be back!

Even though the staff didn't get a heads up about our plans to be here with as many people as we've had, they held their own and served us as fast and as well as they could I appreciate their hustle and patience. They worked fairly well under the pressure despite it being difficult with such a large party. I didn't get the entire staffs names but Michelle took our Order and she was great! I LOVE her name tag and then Crystal, I believe is the one who served us our food and chatted with us for a bit. She was a treat The food on the menu is quite simple. Nothing crazy or fancy and they've got the prices right there by the dish . I can always appreciate when the price is there so that I KNOW what I'm getting into. At my table, we had two orders of the Trash Can Omelet (come with toast or biscuit; grits, hash or choice of potatoes), we had house 'fries' and a Strawberry Waffle. It was all very delicious! I don't think it was that I was hungry but I CLEANED my omelet and toast at the restaurant. I was sat! And I thoroughly enjoyed it. I would absolutely be coming back here again for the good food and amazing service

We had steak fingers ( really good, seriously) and 4 large strips- had to give one to my husband and take one to go, chicken strips, quesadillas, and Philly cheesesteak sandwich, fries and okra. They have the style fries I like, they seem to have a slight flour coat or something. Just enough crunch but not greasy or over fried. Finished it off with blackberry cobbler it was just as good as the rest of the meal. We will return next trip to town.

This visit was for breakfast, and the amount of options made made it difficult to choose. Enter our waitress, Alli, who helped us through that part and took great care of us while we were there. She was very knowledgeable of the menu, friendly & witty without ever being obtrusive. And I could hear that she was the same with each of the tables near us. This review and 5 Star rating are for Alli who I think must surely be the best server in Waco.

We dropped in to Black Bear before going to the movies night. Unfortunately, we were disappointed…read morewith the level of service and quality of this fairly new Waco restaurant. I reviewed BBD a year ago for the first time after their initial opening and gave them high marks. Like so many places, though, BBD has not maintained the quality of their grand opening. My wife's broccoli and cheese soup was obviously a mix with very little broccoli, very little cheese, and bland. The tomatoes on my house salad were bad probably old. The corn muffins we received were cold and dense and probably straight from the cooler. Our waitress brought our food then didn't come back until we flagged her down to get our check. She was covering about 5 tables and spent most of her time in the kitchen. A runner brought our food out. It seems that Black Bear is going through that inevitable drop in quality that comes with an inability to sustain continuity in their kitchen and wait staff. Hopefully they will work through this problem and return to the quality we are have come to expect over the last year.

I just don't understand why a lot of restaurants mess with their recipes, Black Bear Diner just changed one of my favorite dishes. My motto if it ain't broke, do fix it.

At 1st glance, I wouldn't…read morehave thought food but with their playful menu & already great rating, we had to check it out. It's a seat yourself, laid back atmosphere with memorabilia ALL OVER THE PLACE. A Cpl of pools tables, retro games to play, arcade style games. They serve breakfast but not positive on cut off time (didn't see a menu-we came after 3p). We came for the burgers & the fact it was May the Fourth made it a fate kinda day. I recommend you take the time to read thru the entire menu. We started with BB-Ate; great choice to start-thick cheesestix, breaded shrooms & perfectly fried pickles. We decided to split the Princess Buns. A hot glazed Honey Bun holding 2 juicy patties & huge strips of bacon w/ melting American chz (we added Cheddar ) was absolute perfection. It's been a long time for the 1st bite of food to give me the hell yeah happy feels. To the Chef (& creator) Galaxy Burgers will see us again ready to try The Destroyer or maybe The Blaster. So many great sounding items to try! Overall bill w/ 1 sweet tea, an app & the burger &33ish before tip. Vibe: Nostalgic. Fun. Wouldve liked music throughout the restaurant. The staff wasn't as lively as one could hope but I get it (current industry survivor of 20+yrs) they coulda just had a beating from the lunch crowd. Seating open. Booths run along the walls on the walls on both sides with tables in the middle of the 1st room. To the left are the pool tables & games with booth seating. BYOB & Liquor Parking: Along the front of the building, some on the side & some out back.

We demolished the carne asada fries which needed nothing but filthy fingers & forks. Their fountain of youth water caused me to go brunette/blackhead again. The unsweetened tea was tasty & toothsome. The Flux Capacitor with the green chili & guacamole was Ratatouille's kiss. We also had the pleasure of meeting & being served by "Creed Bratton's" Indica. The ambiance was akin to visiting my midnight library in Baby Yoda (actual Yoda) theme park of my lucid dreams. Would I return? Yes, but next time I'll make an appointment next door to get a mini 8oz Great Value water bottle tattooed on my back to celebrate my 7th & 2nd generation Mexican American heritage. Room for improvement: Next time maybe offer optional bendy straws & monocles? And what about a punch card for visits instead of or as an option to an app? Live long & prosper. (Sorry for all the typos & cacophony of mixed metaphors & references. It can't be helped due to my current food comma/coma.)
