This was my first time going to this cafe and it was great. I'm originally from a small town of 5k people and the cafe felt like one back home. The wait staff was friendly and the people even more so. I ordered eggs, bacon, waffle, and a hot tea. Everything was cooked perfectly, eggs just runny enough, bacon crispy but not burnt, waffle was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I loved how they provided the hot tea with a small kettle of more hot tea. I went there hungry and left in a food comma. read more

There isnt much not to like about Snappy's, from the retro looking staff to the retro looking furniture. Of course the pieces fits the time period well in this town. Everything seems to be the back drop of a 70's grocery commercial. While the Snappy cafe is known for breakfasts and catering to a large devoted following of golfers on the weekends, it's never the less the best dinner in Katy. The food here is just honestly simple and good, I doubt anyone can do better at home. get in line point at what you want and find a table and work it. Good people, great food, at a cost that will make anyone smile even if they have to pick up the check. read more

Food was amazing and so much of it. I would have given 5 stars but bacon was a little to done for our liking. Prices were amazing also! Just a side note the breakfast tacos are huge! I am so glad we stumbled on this place. read more

Went for breakfast which appears to be a favorite in Katy although quite frankly the lunch looked equally excellent. The breakfast menu is quite extensive and I ended up ordering a vegetable omelette. However before commenting on the food let me make some remarks about the service which was prompt, thorough, courteous and quite pleasant. Let me likewise note that the restaurant was packed and the waiting line was extensive however the service was such that we were seated in approximately 15 minutes. On to the meal....the portions are quite extensive on every plate meal that I saw served including my own. As I stated I had the vegetable omelette which was well prepared and by no means sparse with ingredients. The grits which was one of the options for a side were perfectly prepared. I would have preferred a more flavorful dish however it was by no means objectionable. I likewise had ordered a side of link sausage which was perfectly prepared as well. My intent is to return for the Greek Omelette which was had by my daughter as was more to my liking considering the spice. This restaurant should be on everyone's breakfast list. read more

The best service and food. Thanks a lot for good mood and friendly ambiance. Do not miss time and go there now :)

Hadn't been here in a long time, but it's just as good as I remember. Recent visit was a mid Sunday morning so it was a little busy. The wait wasn't too long & it was worth it. A small town, family run cafe/diner with something for everyone. No its not decked out w/ modern decor & beautifully painted walls. But hey, get over it...ya can't eat the chairs or wallpaper! Went for the Deuces combo this go round. I opted for french toast, scrambled eggs, bacon & sausage, plus my greedy butt added a side of grits LOL. All was hot & fresh. This place has some of the best grits I've ever had in a restaurant setting. Doesn't have that watery, bland texture & flavor you find at other spots. Nice, thick & buttery. Add in the great price to portion ratio & awesome service, you can't beat it! Give them a try if you haven't already. read more

We were in town for the weekend and decided to try Snappy's after looking up "breakfast places in Katy". We were NOT disappointed!! This is a hidden gem, we had friendly service as soon as we walked in. Given that it was a Saturday, we were willing to wait as we really didn't want to drive any place else. We were seated in about 20 minutes. We were impressed with how everyone worked and cleared the tables as quickly as they could. The coffee was so good, I already knew I picked a great place based on that. LOL I ordered the eggs and waffles, my husband ordered the steak and eggs. The waffle was perfect, and the steak was so good leaving us wanting more. The wait staff always had a smile and friendly attitudes. Everything was delicious and we really can't wait to go back!! read more

First time here and everything was great! Delicious food, excellent customer service. Prices were very reasonable. Will definitely be a regular breakfast spot for us. read more

Fun place with lots of local people and staff that knows their regulars. Warm and friendly feel and great menu choices for all kinds of breakfast options. I had the eggs and grilled pork chops. The chops are generous cuts and beautifully prepared. Not everyone got exactly what they asked for the first time, but they were accommodated quickly. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for a local option to the national breakfast eateries! read more

Snappy's Cafe & Grill - American Near Me - Katy, Texas

I would like to start this review by saying that I went here based on a myriad of excellent reviews from YELP, Facebook groups, Friends, and locals. I was so ready to have the breakfast of a lifetime. What a let down! I mean, I have never been worked up for something that was a this bad. OK, let's get one thing straight before your fiery comments come crashing down faster than Trump can spit a lie. This review is of the food only! the service was great and unique. And I know that the management team took care of their associates during Harvey, but that is no excuse for poor food. As in any american diner the wife and I chose classic american style breakfasts. My eggs sunny side with corned beef hash, My wifes hash browns, with eggs over easy, bacon and one pancake. As I began my drink order of my usual coffee and orange juice the waitress politely asked me if Sunny D would be ok, perplexed as to whether she was joking or not, i politely said "no, orange juice would be fine". Her response was less than comedic. What kind of breakfast joint...NAY! RESPECTABLE RESTAURANT, serves SUNNY FRIGGIN D as a drink?!?!? I should have trusted my instincts and just cancelled my order and left, but I kept the faith in my fellow men and women who are devout Snappy patrons claiming that this is the "BEST" breakfast in the city. Well as the plates hit the table my worst breakfast fears came to light. here is the breakdown: The Corned Beef Hash: Canned The Hash Browns: Cold, Re-fried (or freezer brand), Stale The Eggs: cooked to order, no issues here Pancakes: Dry/overcooked Bacon: pre-cooked, cold Drinks: Coffee was sub-par, and SUNNY FRIGGIN D Look, I can understand that one can hold a restaurant in high esteem for the the service and the managerial fortitude, but the food is boring, bland, the coffee stale, and bacon: frail. I give this one star because if I want a breakfast that looks like a child made it and served with a smile and warm heart, I'd ask my six year old to whip up breakfast at home, but even then he knows better than to serve daddy Sunny D... read more

I tried to eat here but couldn't as I don't like to sweat while eating. I don't know if the A/C was on, but if it was, it sucked. The place was full so perhaps the food is good, but I am not going to tolerate the heat to find out. read more

Small town diner feel with food that you would expect, such as chicken fried steak and typical breakfast fare. We went for Saturday brunch time, which was crowded, but didn't wait long. Great service and I was happy enough that they had brown gravy for chicken fried steak. Upon walking in, their little lunch buffet selection is on the left, so you can see what they have vs ordering from the menu. I opted for that with chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, green beans, and Mac and cheese. Food was good, not necessarily great, but it worked well with the atmosphere. Hubs had a breakfast place of eggs, sausage links, and pancakes. 5 pancakes at that! What a big meal and it was actually yummy. Their menu was all over the place with local ads, and had both breakfast and lunch options. We would definitely return, their Greek items look enticing. read more

My husband and I enjoy going to Snapys for fried chicken, we believe Snappys has some of the best fried chicken in Katy! We decided to get take out on a Sunday afternoon, and since it takes 20 min. After you've ordered the chicken we called Snapys. It's an hour round trip from our home to patronize snappys. When my husband got home with the orders we were disappointed to find that we were missing 25% of the chicken pieces! You're supposed to get 4 pieces per order, we each got 3 pieces! Not wanting to drive an additional hour round trip we called snappys to report the problem., we were told we have to wait until Tuesday and speak to the manager. Just a word to the wise, check your to go orders, even if you trust the integrity of the business.they told us the kitchen put in each order 4 pieces now I feel like they think we have been untruthful now Iam even insulted on top of there mistake to bad we love the fried chicken but Iam not a dishonest person!!! read more

This is the only place we have found since moving here 5 years ago that feels like home! The food is great and the atmosphere is super welcoming and homey. The chicken fried chicken and the chicken dumplings on Wednesday is my all time FAV!! I cant get enough! read more

Good comfort food if you grew up poor like me . Also don't take people who doesn't like Sunny D. read more

The pancakes were a little dry. The eggs with shredded cheese wasn't good the cheese wasn't even melted.

I've driven by this place many times, but never stopped -- until now. It's located in a tired strip shopping center, next to the dog grooming place -- you get my drift. Inside, there's no sleek, snappy, sexy decor. Just plain simple. But let's get to the food -- down-home delicious! They have a large, varied menu, and breakfast is served all day. I had a vegetable omelette, which came with home fries, and I selected a biscuit (vs. toast) - no substitutions allowed. Could not finish it, the omelette was so large and filled with vegetables. The menu is large, and there is a limited buffet. The waitresses are pros -- quick, efficient, anticipate your needs. The cooks must be on roller skates, because the food came out quickly and hot. The grill is not large inside, but it's comfortable, and the acoustics are good. So don't judge a book by the cover -- this place is great! read more

Great food, big servings, I'm glad they finally stopped allowing smoking. The feel is of a home town diner. Prices are great too, the menu is a bit hard to find things with all the pages and ads, but makes for finding something new every time we go. read more

Snappy's is my breakfast go-to. It's a cafe. It isn't going to wow you but it is going to give you great service and good food consistently. My only negative comment would be the orange juice is Sunny D. Not a fan. read more

I had been going to this restaurant for the last ten years and it was outstanding. New ownership, took over and service declined immediately. Lukewarm coffee this morning and no one to take my order after 10 minutes. No thanks, plenty of other restaurants in Katy. read more

This is my personal fav. Great service family family family. You see the same people every time you go. I'm not talking about staff. The customers are always there. read more

My wife and I ate at Snappy's this weekend and it was fantastic! The food and wait staff were great! Very enjoyable breakfast! We'll be back!!! Thanks read more

We get the Atkins breakfast and spilt it. Great place to have a meal. This place floods often, so go try it before the next flood.

We've been regular customers but the food today was unacceptable. Bland, not fresh, no flavor and overall a massive disappointment. Things have seriously gone downhill here. read more

I've only ever come here for breakfast, but the food is always good, the staff is always friendly, and the clientele which I believe is mostly locals are amazing. I hope this hidden gem last forever. Please come by and support a truly local business read more

Always fantastic home cooking... Staff is always more than friendly more like family service is super fast food is consistent and great love it if you need comfort country food this is we're it's at OLD KATY ORIGINAL!! Thank y'all for being more than great always ! read more

Love my snappys. Breakfast never disappoints. From the coffee to the French toast, it's all good.

Love this very casual little greasy spoon, staff is great. My only constructive criticism is that the chef needs to learn how to perfect an omelette, it's often over cooked and flat. Please take the time to master this, it's essential at a a cute little place like yours. Blend the eggs in a blender.... Watch a video on YouTube or perhaps allrecipe. And please have real butter a couple choices of cheese? American (yuck) AND maybe fresh vegetables, a few tweaks will really make your restaurant stand out. Thank you. read more

We LOVE Snappy for breakfast. IT is always good and consistent. the staff is really friendly even with the restaurant gets crowded with hangry people. I love how it has a local small town feeling when you sit down and look at the menu. the prices are great so get their early! read more

Just passing through. Much better than chain restaurants! Great service, great food good value, very clean!

Don't bother ordering the BLT. They do not put bacon slices on the sandwich. You get overcooked crunchy bacon crumbles. It was terrible. The fries were not good either. Tasted like previous days refried French fries. read more

Good Lord I found my new favorite country breakfast place! What is important to one man is different from the next but this is important to me to find a good country breakfast place. I always wanted to move out away from the big city and find a home cooking favorite place to eat that makes you feel warm and "welcome". Today we went to try out this place and it was like hanging out with the family at a reunion. That is what is important to us besides the food being great. This nice lady named Gio is who welcomed us and she was truly like hanging out with family. We loved everything about this place. read more

Been going here for years! Breakfast is wonderful! My favorites are the biscuits and gravy, pork chops, breakfast tacos and western Omelet. Screw DENNY's, Eat at Snappy's and be HAPPY! Oh, two more things.. The cheeseburgers are great, as is every thing at steam table where you can choose from an assortment of lunch plate combos, Meatloaf,mashed potatoes and gravy, and some corn and a roll. read more

I love snappy! Food is good, service is great. Definitely has a down south, diner feel. Great local business to support

100% recommend this place! The food and service are ALWAYS ON POINT!! Serving breakfast and lunch daily, I would nit miss a thing on the menu. The breakfast for two is always my fave! Four eggs (anyway you like, 2 pancakes, 2 French toast, 2 pieces of bacon and 2 pieces of sausage to round it out! I would also be remiss in not mentioning the biscuits and gravy (with sausage)!! It's like sin served on a plate! Yum! read more

Great service and there r food is top notch! My hamburger was hand-pattied and cooked perfectly. Sone's club sandwich looked like something from a magazine and husband said his chicken fry was fantastic. read more

Snappy's is a nice and run and owned by a Greek family. I've read the reviews and heard the busy from my co-workers. SO! this past weekend I was working one Saturday and a group of us headed to this local favorite. The people are friendly, the service is fast, and the price is reasonable. It had that feel of a small town diner. A few of the guys that I work with frequent this place. It was like 'Cheers' where everyone knew their name. When I visited I ordered a bacon cheese-burger with fries and a sprite. The bacon was good, the patty looked fresh and pattied up that day so I'm wondering if its local beef? The fries are your standard small town deli frozen fries. All in all it was a good experience. Good food for a quick bite. It's an A-OK place. NO! my name isn't Norm, but my co-worker could be. read more

Look, I've read some of the negative reviews and yes I actually agree with a lot of the fair critiques on the food. It's a standard family run diner primarily for breakfast. The food won't blow you away but it more than meets expectations. Portions are substantial and the pancakes are huge and fluffy. It's a local Greek family who has served and been loved by the community for years. Customers are mainly locals, churches, responders, and the Katy like. It's a welcoming family friendly small town ambiance with good food and sometimes that's what you need some days. read more

This place smells like an old bowling alley. And guess what, when you leave... you will too! The food was fine. Its what you'd expect from a breakfast diner. Nothing too fancy. Menu full of breakfast standards in all different combinations. I enjoyed my pancakes. The sausage patties were less than great (especially when you think about that fact that Midway is a few doors down with the best sausage in town). I'm not going back. I'll let the smokers have this restaurant. read more

Good: Small town diner that is very popular with the locals. The waitresses are the best thing about this place-friendly and efficient. You can't go wrong with breakfast whether you get biscuits and gravy or the Greek. Bad: Smoke and lots of it! Quantity in food does not make up for quality. Coffee is tasteless. Ugly: Dirty. From the sidewalk outside to the ceiling and vents, cheap and sticky furniture and gross, need a complete re-do bathrooms. I have never seen the floors waxed. And yes, I am here a lot due to the boys in my family. read more
