    3.4 star out of 5 for my visit. Due to lots of hype this was our second attempt to eat here the day before the wait time was over 45 minutes so we came back to try again and got in within 30 minutes for our party of 5. 3 Adults one teen one 5 year old. They have many reasons for the low review during my experience. Once we were given a table and seated our drink orders were taken about 5 minutes in not bad however it went down from thier. We ordered two cortados two iced coffees a chocolate milk and sweet tea. The water came then 10 minutes later one cortado and one iced coffee came. The about 8 min later the chocolate milk abd ice tea followed by the last ice coffee and my cortado as well. What I witnessed was people coming in to order drinks from the person making coffees and then waiters and waitresses putting orders in so they would bounce between people ordering just a drink and people dining in for breakfast This is not a fluid concept and if that is not what is suppose to take place it is what I physically saw causing delays in drinks to people's tables and servers. We ordered a variety of items but it was a small type of breakfast items. The food came out about 35 minutes into service. The kids pancakes were done well and the chicken salad sandwich was fresh, the broccoli chedder soup was good as well. I had a platter with smothered hash browns, ham, 2 eggs and a biscuit and gravy due to the hype for the homemade biscuits. My eggs had three instead of two on the account one broke and they cooked another to put on top of the broken one. The hash browns had a burned edge and then raw middle so to high heat i guess the worst thing was waiting for the food and then main star the biscuit and gravy came out. They lost me fully with the biscuit and gravy. The gravy was cold and the biscuit during my second bite tasted too raw upon using my butter knife to cut the biscuit in half it slid out raw with batter from the under done biscuit. Being a foodie this broke my heart - she asked me if I would like a whole new biscuit I said no thank you. Upon further request if everything was fine they still insisted on bringing another one to try. That biscuit did have a flaky buttery top half with hot gravy almost redemption worthy then I took a bite from the other bottom half and it was raw so I gave up. The ham was tasting off so I did not finish it to follow my own instinct. Now I paid for everything they had offered to take it off my bill however I came for the full real experience of this place and declined. This is still worth going too and trying my experience though is mine and mine alone which has made me consider other options in the area moving forward. I appreciate the time and effort the cooks and staff made.

    You must try the Branson gem! Food, service, ambiance, view. All was excellent! Everything we tried was delicious. Glad we stopped by!

    Cute little breakfast place. Stopped here on our way home to Oklahoma! Food was good, various drink options, and quick service! The view in the back outside is so pretty! We sat upstairs.

    We actually were heading to another breakfast spot when we spotted this one on the road, the other place was closed so we circled back. The line was pretty long but moved quickly, you could also wait outside but it was cold as heck. Once seated the servers are friendly and talk about the menu items in good detail. I personally loved the stuffed hashbrown- the flavor was amazing and went really well with hot sauce from the table. The place was rather small and got sort of like a Deli vibe since you pay first then they bring you the food. All around it was a great breakfast spot.

    We stayed at the Motel for a quick weekend away and had to eat breakfast the next morning. There were lots of good reviews so I was excited to try it. It didn't disappoint. It was busy and the place was hopping. Service was great. All the staff seemed to watch the tables so we never ran out of drinks or needed anything. It was a bit noisy, but it's busy! The view is fantastic. The only weird part is you pay as soon as you order. And of course if paying via Credit card the tip is asked up front. Having no clue if I would get good service I tipped a little light. After our meal I felt bad about that but I guess that's the businesses fault. If I'm ever there again I'll tip better since I know. Anyway. Food was fantastic, service was stellar, prices are fair, and the view was great. Definitely give this place a go if you're in the area.

    Great service and awesome food! Host and servers were awesome at helping us as we were a big party! The place has awesome views and seems very family oriented which was nice. Treat you like family here! On our trip we came 3 days in a row, that's how good it was! Will definitely be back when in the area!

    We had just wrapped up our Branson, Missouri vacation and were getting ready for the 10 hour drive back to New Orleans. The truck was fueled up but our bellies were empty and needed to be filled up as well. A quick Yelp search led us to the Steamy Joe Cafe. Located directly next door to The Bradford; a bed & breakfast, this charming wood framed restaurant is very inviting. This is counter service with a charm, as the staff were very inviting. We were seated in a glass atrium styled dining room that offered incredible views of the Ozark Mountains. While we waited for our food, I was pleasantly pleased at how delicious the coffee was. In fact, it was so good, it immediately brought me back to the movie Pulp Fiction when Samuel L. Jackson's character (Jules) stated "G0d damn Jimmy, this some serious gourmet sh!t, but I digress. Let's just say it was a great way to start the day before a long drive home. Since I had feasted for several days, I went with a lighter option for breakfast and got the veggie omelette, with grits and sourdough toast. Let's just say it hit the spot. If you are ever in the area, this is a great little breakfast/brunch spot.

    Dining Area

    I loved this restaurant so much! There is a wait but there's an amazing gazebo in the back you can see beautiful views while you wait. The food was also wonderful, from breakfast to lunch as well. The staff is also very homey and welcoming!

    Crustless Breakfast Quiche

    Awesome service! Great food! I highly recommend the crustless breakfast quiche! But we've had breakfast here about 6 times and have never been disappointed! They do fancy coffees too! The staff is the friendliest in Branson! Go early or be prepared to wait if it's a weekend.

    Great little breakfast find in Branson. First time here, coffee options were amazing and the food was solid. I did the Big Joe with eggs, hash browns, bacon and biscuits and gravy... My wife enjoyed their homemade breakfast quiche, which was amazing. The view from their dining area is special, the waitstaff was super friendly and attentive. Great place to wake up and come eat!

    The view
    Daniel D.

    This has become one of the most popular breakfast spots in Branson and for good reason. The atmosphere is comfortable, the servers are all super friendly, the view is excellent and the coffee bar is . That being said, the food isn't anything special. It's always decent, for sure. The pancakes, hashbrowns and grits were tasty, but the veggie omelette left something to be desired. Not bad, by any means, but it's hard to find any GREAT breakfast spots in this area and my hopes for this place were higher. Still though, I'll be back at some point, but I'm still on the prowl for that perfect breakfast spot.

    Phenomenal service, really Good food and muffins, and fast! This place is in The Bradford Hotel and guest get 20% off. It's clean and has ample seating and does get busy!

    This was a cherry latte (can't remember the exact name)

    Do you accept emotional support dogs (11 lb yorkie) in a stroller?

    We sure do!

    What is a good day to go to avoid a big crowd?

    Honestly it seems like it is always busy. We went early on a weekend. So plan earlier the better. When we were leaving around 8:30-9, it was filling up. But trust me, it's worth it!!

    Are dogs allowed?

    I don't know but im sure it has to be less then 30 pounds like a small dog!

The waitresses are attentive and keep your coffee cup full. I especially want to note; at both lunch and breakfast i saw their people taking food temperatures on the buffet. That is a first anywhere. Plus i saw it at both meals. That means they take food safety very seriously. Yes, my favorite and i highly recommend.

I was here…read moreat the same time at watched the staff killing themselves with two bus loads of kids in addition to massive amounts of adults. Every tray was carried for every diner with a greeting and a smile. What I saw was hard-working people keeping every drink full. The guys behind the buffet had to constantly deal with kids standing in the way as they carried hot food from the kitchen. No one was rude or even short with anyone patrons. My waitress, Jacqueline, was so very sweet. She kept my drinks full and got me extra plates. Don't listen to the hateful comments on here. This place had great, fresh food with awesome service. I plan to always come back in the future. Next time I'll try the omelet station. It looked amazing!

The staff are students working to pay for their tuition. It is a large elegant building with plenty of room for groups, but at times there is a wait. We had the chicken fried chicken and the meatloaf entrees. Both were served with green beans and mashed potatoes. They offer complimentary bread with three types of butter. We really enjoyed the apple butter! And dessert is not to be missed. We had the apple pie, and it was delicious, and more than enough for the two of us. You can peruse the shop before or after your meal to see some of the student made products.

    Wonderful gem in Branson that run by the Ozark college and seems to be fully operated by students…read morefrom the baking and cooking to the management and serving. The dining hall is beautifully adorned with cabin-esque motif and overlooks the campus and mountains. The menu has a great variety and notes items that are made by the students (e.g. butters and cakes). Their complimentary, fresh made bread basket with three types of butters was a fantastic start to the meal. We ordered the mushroom soup, the pork belly sandwich w/ fries, and the shrimp and grits. I will say that the pork belly po' boy was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had in my life! I almost stayed in town longer on the second day just to order it again. The pork belly was smoky, tender, and sweet and paired so well with the grain mustard, pickled onions and arugula -- superb balance of flavors. My husband also noted the shrimp and grits was some of the best he's ever had. The shrimp and pork belly in the dish were perfectly cooked and the Cajun spices were well balanced. And we have to tell you to try their fresh desserts. The brown butter chocolate cake was a special ending to the meal. This is an excellent stop and our student server provided excellent service - they're doing a great job there and is a highly recommended of ours during your stop during your visit to Branson.
