Came on Friday around 6. Not crowded at all. Restaurant is clean and looks pretty new. Ordered burgers and a hot dog. Burgers were juicy and really good. Sweet jalapeno bun was toasted and really had a great taste and texture. Hot dog was a Nathan's and my daughter said it was good. Fries were thin cut and the three of us shared one order. I love fries and these were obviously fresh and very, very good. And then the pie came. Chocolate cream and coconut cream. Fantastic. The crust was perfect and the portion was large. Save Room For Pie! Staff was super friendly and service was quick. I highly recommend this little burger joint. We'll be coming back to try breakfast. read more

First time here it seemed like a good breakfast spot according to the reviews .. It was a pretty good breakfast had the omelette it wasn't amazing or anything. I'll give it 3.5 ish read more

Amazing! A lot of favor packed into this small diner in downtown Bethany. My Nathan's Hot Dog was wrapped in BACON! Wowzers! It came on a very yummy out of the ordinary buttery bun. French fries are hand cut and delicious. Pie... Oh MY lets talk about pie... I ordered Choc Pie. My stomach was completely stuffed after my Hot Dog but I couldn't resist homemade pie. The crust was spot on, the choc pie filling was rich and creamy. Then they top it with whipped cream, mini morsels and powered sugar. My son ordered a burger which was big and tasty. My other son had a club sandwich which was large and full of meat. So in conclusion ....... You gotta try this place! read more

Been to damn near every bfast place in OKC in pursuit of a good bfast, not great just good, as this town is in seriously short supply. I have found a beacon of hope. The Stray Dog Cafe was terrific. Fresh thick cut hash browns, over medium eggs cooked correctly, thick cut delicious bacon, and scratch made biscuits. Really outstanding. Closed on Sundays is what kept me from discovering them sooner but I will change Sunday bfast in order to hit this place up. read more

So if you're looking for homemade pecan rolls, go to downtown Bethany and stop at the Stray Dog. We didn't have time for full breakfast this visit, but it looked so good, will do it the new time in we're in town. Did I mention the pecan rolls are AMAZING? read more

A perennial favorite in my house. We mostly go for the breakfast. It's simple, but delicious. I crave their fresh made English muffins. I save it for the end of the meal with a bit of strawberry jam. Yum! The pancakes are soft, buttery and scrumptious. The sausage is fresh. The oatmeal is great. Really, you can't go wrong. On Saturday they can be pretty busy and there might be a wait, but it's worth it. If they have caramel pecan rolls, grab one. read more

I would put 0 stars to be honest. We had not been back in a year and time has not been kind to the food or THE OWNER. The breakfast menu has shrunk, the food has decreased in quality, the waitress(es) was/were ditz(s), and the owner's attitude is piss poor. read more

I absolutely loved the small town type of burger joint it was made into. The staff was friendly. The atmosphere was cool. The open seating and open view of the kitchen was cool. I ordered the BBQ burger. It was cooked to my liking. Medium well/well. The fries were cooked good as well. I didn't have any issues at all. I will have to go back and try something else. Again these are just my own opinions and feel free to try for yourselves read more

The food was good! The service wasn't as good! It took us over 45 minutes to order and get our food! This was our 1st time we had breakfast and the coffee continued to come during the wait to eat. read more

It's not too bad a place. But my fries were cold but the Reuben dog as warm. Pretty good pecan pie!

I work right down the street and it's a pretty good place to have in the neighborhood when I'm needing a quick bite to eat and am not in the mid to go far. I'm really fond of their breakfast, what can I say I'm a sucker for biscuits and gravy! read more

We drove here on a Saturday afternoon. It's right on 39th Expressway across from Southern Nazareth University, in the strip mall. (The tip about parking in the back &using the back door was great info!) This little dive could come right out of a James Dean movie, other than the big screen TV. The people who worked there were all so super kind. They greeted us with the dog food bowl of popcorn.....lol! Our waitress was great and continued to bring fresh drinks and check on us. Even the cook came out to make sure our orders were prepared correctly. LOVE IT! Everything was made right there. Other than our jalapeno buns on the bacon burgers (out of Houston, TX) might I say super spectacular? !?!?! My son has a thing for burgers, especially bacon cheeseburgers. He swears this is THE BEST BACON CHEESEBURGER he's had! He made me promise to take him back as a regular date. That's saying something. I had the grilled cheese and I'd recommend it on wheat. We finished with fresh coconut cream pie that was to die for! The pie alone would be enough for us to make the trip out here. No matter where you live in the metro area, this place is definitely worth the drive! I don't give up my give stars easily, they earned every last bit of it! My one and only minus.... if I must....the pure crust could be a bit better, if eaten alone.... lol! read more

The lady answer the phone was very rude! Per that lady we have to place a day early for catfish on Friday. We orders a day early and still have to wait like an hour to get the food the day of. She shouldn't be answering or taking order over the phone read more

Breakfast of champions!! French toast is made with this amazing bread and you get three slices. Bacon was thick cut and a little crispy for me but bacon is one of those things that you enjoy what you get and don't complain. Coffee never ending and hot! Pancake and egg breakfast left her happy and smiling. Note to the one person who had a long wait at lunch. Orders can get lost sometimes so don't hesitate to ask about your food it it's a little late they would rather see it solved than you go away unhappy. Enjoy!!! read more

Stopped in for lunch this week. Buttered popcorn as an appetizer and we split the Blue Cheese Mushroom Burger and the Coney Special. The Coneys were good, Nathan's Hot Dogs, but the Burger was great. The restaurant is clean, service good and food well above average. Bethany has needed a place like this for a while. A tip: use the alley parking, come in the back door and don't worry about backing out onto NW 39th Expy. read more

I went here for lunch and had a pretty unique experience. Staff is friendly, very neat and clean inside. They give you a little doggy bowl of popcorn as an appetizer. I had a club sandwich with fries. The club sandwich was well made with quality ingredients and the fries were homemade thin cut fries. I love the thinner fries, home cut fries are typically thicker in my experience. I tried two pies, chocolate chip and coconut, both were wonderful ; I would love to come back and try breakfast sometime. read more

Was looking for a mom and pop diner their sign was very obvious from driving down the street. It was in a very cute old town antique strip mall and gave it a very cozy home town feel. We were greeted promptly and given popcorn in a dog bowl for appetizer which was so cute. I inquired about the tabouli in their menu to which the server asked if I wanted to try it. I said sure! It was good, but not for me. We got the patty melt, fries, and sour kraut, and this AMAZING coconut cream pie made by our very own waitress. Everything tasted delicious. At the end when we were paying our tab an older gentleman came up to me and said here take these fries I don't think what you had was cooked the way I like them. I gladly took them (who wouldn't want free food?!) but honestly there was nothing wrong with the ones we had we both thought they were delicious. I appreciate the fact that they pride themselves in the taste of their food and their service was very very good. I felt very taken care of. Would definitely recommend and I will be coming back! read more

Great burger on a jalapeño bun. . .I had the California burger and my hubby had the hot spicy one. Both were terrific. The sweet potato fries were perfectly crispy. Terrific service too! I'm just mad at myself because it's been there three years and we worked on the same street and this was my first visit. I will definitely go back! They had homemade pie also but who had room? Next time we'll have pie first! read more

A gem of a local place... Especially on this side of town! Homemade biscuits and english muffins to name a few items normally delivered via truck. If you want that intimate feel... Try a mid morning trip off the busier rush times and you will just drink in the hospitality. Bring your dog and sit on the patio! The food is thoughtful... Meaning they care. Harder to find these days. read more

Stopped in for lunch today I had the turkey and dressing and corn soufflé and a fresh dinner roll. Tasted like home. The carrot cake was OK it might have been a day old but better than most restaurant carrot cakes read more

This is the slowest place ever. We waited 10 minutes to order and 20 minutes later we STILL don't have our food.

Thank you, Management and wonderful staff. Our Bible study group are here today and you had to bring out another table to accomadate us. It was so helpful so we could eat together. We love coming here. Thank you again. Your food is wonderful also. read more

Good, home made. They will let you eat with your dog on the patio. Had a burger and fries, greasy, but good. They served popcorn in adding bowl for an "appetizer". The popcorn was burnt, but lots of character in this little downtown Bethany place. read more

Breakfast was great. Service was excellent! Definitely going to be a repeat customer. !

Order the Pancakes !! The food was wonderful ! Staff was friendly , I would definitely come back ! I'm not a breakfast person but this place may have changed my opinion about breakfast for sure ! The staff was nice enough to make the kids chocolate chip pancakes, which were not on the menu.. The kids were excited beyond words. Thank you for the wonderful food and service. read more

We were the strays today. I'm on vacation with three hungry kids and orders from the at work wife to not make a mess of anything since we are having the house cleaned and showing it often so we can sell. I spit polished and clothed the children best a dad can do on days off then loaded up in search of a pancake palace that can pander to these picky palettes. Around the lake for some scenery of the cold water waving, we stumbled into Bethany. Maybe fate or a higher power since across from a Christian college steered us here; either way we enjoyed every masticated morsel. I'm now finished with my fries and super ghost pepper spiced El Toro burger leisurely typing and listening to the other patrons chat about their holidays. The kids are sticky with syrup and all smiles. As soon as the coffee buzz kicks in, I'll find our next destination to occupy my minion. Come try this place. Anointed and blessed New Year to you all. read more

Stray Dog Cafe - Popcorn for breakfast. I'm a good dad! - Cafes Near Me - Bethany, Oklahoma

Burgers and Hot Dogs are great and made with pride and freshest ingredients. Save room for the pies, as they are fantastic. If you are there before they run out, ask for the day's special, as there will be a different offering each day, and they are Special. Breakfast is a treat, as you can get just about anything-eggs to order, biscuits, gravy, pancakes, hash browns, and breakfast meats. Recent menu item is steaks. Popular offering sure to please, and prices are right. A great addition to the town of Bethany and well worth the drive from all over the OKC area. Hardworking and friendly folks make this an enjoyable visit. Try it; you'll become a regular! read more

Hometown love and a great place to eat. There is no better place to eat than small mom and pop establishment. Ask for the Strawberry Pie... OMG!!! :D read more

Only giving a two stars for the home made English muffin which were yummy and for the beyond excellent service, other then that the food was HORRIBLE! Tomatoes were rotten, bacon tasted bad, and everything tasted old and had a abundance of grease all over everything! Will not be back! read more

This place is excellent for breakfast. I have been maybe 6 or 7 times, all for breakfast. Most everything is homemade and delicious. I have heard their lunch is great as well. Give it a try as you won't regret it. read more

Love this hometown feel! I've gone here two weeks in a row now. It's surely my new go to for breakfast! You've got to try the pancakes they are sweet cakes! Can't complain about anything even the coffee is really great! read more

Wow! Such a great little mom and pop place in the perfect location. We happened upon this cafe one night for dessert and we headed back for breakfast the next morning! So yummy! read more

I've been here four times and every time it's taken us so long to get our food. The last time I was there it took an HOUR to get a grilled chicken salad?! The manager could tell I was upset but just said "that's part of the lunch rush." Anyways, food is decent but be prepared to wait. read more

The food and service were both great!!! We had the fried catfish and it was very good. The other food leaving the grill also looked great! Everyone there was really nice and attentive. Great place for dinner. The prices were great too! read more

WOW is all I can say! Steak was out of this world good!!! And the pie!!!!! Give this little gem a visit and you won't be disappointed!! This was our first visit and it won't be our last! I believe we will make this a regular date night go to spot! We both left full and happy! read more

Excellent place to eat for comfort food. Everything is made fresh and cooked to order. Even the pies, which are very good, are made onsite daily! read more

Not if you are in a hurry! Our first visit, place is kinda small. Lots and lots of servers,who are quick and attentive. The grilled chicken salad was large, and well prepared. The Mushroom, onion, Swiss burger was excellent. The negative: It took 40+ minutes from ordering to delivery of our food. Seems like other customers got their order before we did. Too bad, would have been a 5 star if not for the delay. read more

Was disappointed. Biscuits were big and fluffy but the gravy had no taste. Bland as paste. On top of that, they didn't give enough gravy for two biscuits. The waitress never asked how our meal was and we had to stand and ask for our ticket. We had been sitting after eating what we wanted for quite a few minutes. Then when we got to the register there was an old lady on the phone and she didn't look at us once. Or get off the phone to take care of our bill. It took her extra time to take care of us and even as she handed back money she was on phone. I told her we wouldn't be back and her response was a weak "huh?" I don't recommend Stray Dog cafe. That's how they treat you. Food was bland at best. Bacon was hard almost inedible for my boyfriend. Coffee was blah...no flavor. UPDATE: The owner Joe L stated she was on phone with technician over their non working POS. She offered a free meal. No, thank you anyway, Joe L. read more

You have to order the homemade biscuits and gravy! They make it all from scratch and it really shows. Excellent food!

It was delicious! I will definitely be back. Great service and speedy catering of food! Thank you!! read more
