After a long day driving across TX, the last thing we wanted to do when we stopped in Clovis for…read morethe night was to order takeout. We YELPed restaurants, and one of our other favorites in town was closed, so we took a chance on the Cotton Patch Cafe. They were open for dine-in, and the whole experience was absolutely wonderful. Service was excellent. Our server, Hope, did a great job meeting all our needs -- including a large print menu (during COVID, when everything has to be wiped down again...), and she was as accommodating and pleasant as can be. The food was off the page. We both ordered burgers, one Nachadoches, and one traditional with cheese. We got sides of fries and onion rings. Normally, we don't eat the buns, but these were magnificent, not your run-of-the-mill hamburger buns! The burgers were juicy and tender, and the toppings as fresh and tasty as could be. The onion rings were HUGE, and perfectly breaded and fried, and there was a slight sweetness to them that was delightful. The french fries were nicely cut, but could have used a bit more time in the fryer to get just a little crispier. Not everything can be perfect, right? Next time we come through Clovis, we'll be back. And to the owners, thanks for that message of hope on the windows: Faith Over Fear!

We had to ask for our entrees and when they finally came out all of them were cold to the touch. Another family that came in about 20 minutes after us got their food at the same time (they had 7 in their party). The quality has been significantly decreasing each time we come. Highly recommend you go somewhere else. One last thing. We were there for an hour and never once were able to get a drink refill.

I walked in around 2:30 so really quiet at the time and ordered a 12.99 platter which consisted of fried chicken, sweet yams, biscuit, greens and mac and cheese.

If you want to eat some tasty southern food this is a great place to go!

*** great roadside diner in northeastern New Mexico ***…read more After checking out a local pumpkin patch and corn maze on 10.12.2025, my daughters and I were quite famished. My youngest let me try her chicken enchiladas ($12.99) - pretty good! The other girl had a cheeseburger which she seemed to enjoy ($13.49). My heart was set on the "Cook's Favorite Con Queso" ($15.99) - "A hamburger steak topped with our own homemade green chili cheese sauce, sprinkled with cheddar cheese served with rice, beans, red chili salsa and basket of tostadas." The green chili cheese sauce was amazingly hearty and mild with spice. I did not want to stop eating it. Lol. I was not, however, a fan of the red chili salsa at all. It tasted too much like Pace Picante Sauce to me. The service was really great. Plenty of free parking. To date, they only had a sign that said "Restaurant" on the outside, so it was hard to tell if we were at the right place. No wonder my work crew always eats here when they travel to the Clovis area. Seems like a good option for breakfast too. RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4| Price: 4

Nicely decorated and spacious restaurant with plenty of tables and booths. The food was a little disappointment. My pastor tacos were dry and difficult to eat my experience with Pastor tacos in the past has been very juicy and full of flavor that was not the case today at this restaurant. My dining companion had an enchilada plate and said it was average and not much flavor Super friendly folks and average food. I visited with a friend who lives in Clovis and he raved about the food, so I may have just made a poor selection. He raved about the.Bierra de Chivo and the torta ahogada - so I may have to come back next time I'm in the area and try those dishes because there are so many favorable reviews.

Something Different is Something Delightful…read more I would not normally give a fast food restaurant 5 stars, but this place is no ordinary fast food restaurant. I stopped by here because many local restaurants in Clovis are closed on Mondays. I was immediately greeted by a very welcoming and accommodating staff. I tried the teriyaki chicken bowl and had a house salad. The chicken teriyaki have a nice variety of vegetables to include cabbage, carrots, and broccoli. Everything was fresh and tasty. The price was right, as were the portions; the place was clean and lively. There is plenty of parking. It is nice to have a place that prepares food fast, but the food is not fast food. If you like vegetables, you will like this place. Stop on by and enjoy
