We have eaten here many times and everything we have gotten has been DELICIOUS!! Staff is friendly and service time has always been great. Sometimes you have to wait to be seated but it's all worth the wait! read more

The Bob cat burger was delicious! It's a 1/2 lbs. Burger topped with green chillies. The French fries are the kind that are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The homemade chilli was great with onion and cheese & a *thumbs up* to their fried pickle spears! The atmosphere inside of the diner feels very welcoming, along with the waitresses. read more

I food was ok. Prefer my fries to be hot and crisp, instead of pale white, soggy, room temperature. The starch taste clearly a sign the fries weren't cooked. Just can't eat under/not cook food. Don't feel I should not have to paid for a full meal when half it was not eatable. I would have said something but I didn't see the waitress again until she hand me my check. I told her then, she offered fresh fries; there wasn't time my entire party was done eating. read more

We were passing through on the way back from Bisbee and stopped in for breakfast. We were addressed immediately by the friendly hostess, seated right away and drink orders taken. The meals were served very quickly after we ordered and were fresh and hot. I ordered the egg sandwich with cheddar, bacon, and hash browns. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the bacon was thick cut and smoky. Hash browns were extra crispy like I enjoy them. Hubby ordered the Chuckwagon burrito which was generous, hot, and delicious. We also shared a cinnamon roll which really was the best I've ever eaten...light and fluffy, full of cinnamon, and COMPLETELY covered in frosting. So flippen delicious. Service was fast and friendly, we never had to ask for anything. Next time we are passing through we will make this a destination stop for sure. read more

The best meatloaf I have had in a long time! This place is quaint but the food is outstanding. Everything is homemade, including the delicious pie that was to die for. If you are passing through Benson do yourself a favor and stop here for a meal! read more

The Horseshoe - Meatloaf and hamburger (no bun). Yummy! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Benson, Arizona

Had a little wait, but that was because they were packed. This was on a Monday night. The wait was worth it. Service and food were excellent. Portions were large enough, that we all took food home. Definitely will return. read more

Fantastic breakfast, awesome value. Got 2 eggs, 2 strips of bacon, a huge amount of hashbrown potatoes and a very fresh English muffin for only $5.99. The cinnamon rolls were enormous and were the best we ever had. Coffee was good too, and service was fast and friendly. Highly recommend. read more

Very good burgers. Not $15 price but as good or better than some. Sweet potato fries! Servers a bit distracted. Pies looked good but no room! They are open for lunch and dinner but have. "Breakfast Bloody Mary" on the menu at 0630! read more

came for breakfast twice & it was really good! hashbrowns are better than their homefries though, so id go with that. sausage links were REALLY good & our waitress was sooooo incredibly nice. same girl twice. i asked her to tell me about the ghost there & she told me a couple stories. they also have drink specials! i got a margarita for breakfast lol read more

This place was incredible, the food was awesome good to find homemade food after a long day of traveling. My husband had 3 tacos and beans he loves tacos and these were great he said really flavorful. I had the Salisbury Steak with plenty of peppers, onions, and mushrooms. Their pies looked really good but we were so full. If we travel this way again we would definitely stop again. read more

Clean place desserts are amazing. Well prepared comfort food. The weight staff were friendly and attentive.

We love the food here but the service is really bad. We receptionist is not nice and never did call us to be seated. We were a party of 6, she said it would be about a 15-20 minute wait and took our name and phone number. 30 minutes later we still were not seated but she had seated everyone that showed up after us. We noticed the entire side room was completely empty and there was no reason why they could not put two 4 tops together and still maintain social distancing. There was no one on the list ahead of us. When I inquired she said no. I went back out side to wait. Still she did not call after 1 hour. We just left after the long wait. She never called to say our table was ready. read more

The chicken fried steak is amazing! I chose mashed potatoes as my side and you can tell they are homemade...none of the powder box stuff. The country gravy was also flavorful. Worth the trip from Tucson! read more

My favorite breakfast spot! Delicious omelettes and waffles! I travel 40+min once a week to eat breakfast here. The servers never let your coffee cup go empty. A hidden treasure in a small quaint town. read more

The best place to eat in Cochise County along with Mi Casa also in Benson. The Rueben with fries for under $9. In Bisbee it would be $15 and smaller. Service is attentive and fast. The best run business I have seen in a while. the pie is a lil pricey but outstanding. I never pass up coconut creme pie. read more

After a road trip from Phoenix area to visit Kartchner Caverns we were hungry!!! We found this spot on Yelp and decided to try it out before heading home. The staff was friendly and the service was great. The food was good and my favorite was the coconut cream pie. read more

Always busy... and for good reason! Prepare to wait for a table at breakfast time. Good food at breakfast and lunch. Less so for dinner, but we'll keep trying. Try the chicken fried chicken! Great gravy. Excellent Ruben sandwiches. You may be waited on by a rodeo world champion! Don't miss this place going to or from Tombstone and Bisbee. read more

Great food, great service, outstanding breakfast experience. Everything was fresh, hot and delicious.

Stopped for breakfast here on the way to Tombstone but missed it and had to settle for lunch. Regardless, the food was great and the kind of fare you'd expect from a cafe. What really set the place apart was the pie. Huge slices of pie were just a sample of the goodies offered by the bakery here. Be ready for a bit of a wait as this place seems to be hopping and maybe not entirely ready for it. read more

The food is amazing! It is my favorite breakfast place to go. Of course the lunch and dinner is great also. Its a must try if you are in the area. read more

Comments as bullet points in no specific order. -Pleasant atmosphere, traditional country diner -Waited 15 minutes to be seated and we weren't addressed until after 10 minutes. -about 10 minutes seated asked what we want for drink -On minor order was wrong, no biggie. -Open faced roast beed sandwich gravy tasted like the metal container it came from -Other dishes tasted so-so, for example, the cheese on sandwiches were store bought American cheese -Staff was very pleasant. -In a more urban or suburban are I would have given 1 or two stars for the quality of food and speed of service. -Prices were pretty good. -Waited and waited and waited for the check to come. Even stacked up all the plates. -The place was moderately busy, three waitresses, kitchens and busboys. Well staffed. read more

We really liked this place. Took the family after getting of the train and the food was good as your grandmas. One truly special piece was their homemade pies. I had the coconut creme...just outstanding! This is right off the interstate and you will enjoy the sit down dinner. read more

One of the best in Benson. The breakfast is amazing. Don't visit for lunch or dinner that often. But we do have breakfast here 2 to 4 times a month. read more

I'm a local who visits there often. I LOVE their Cobb Salad, which has lots of goodies on it with no skimping on the bleu cheese (and their bleu cheese dressing tastes homemade). Their Mexican food is really good; I especially like the Nachos. And you cannot go wrong with their breakfasts...ever! They even have the option of using Egg Beaters, if you are cholesterol conscious. read more

Awesome food, absurd portions. What is normally a full order of biscuits and grave is merely a side to a 8 dollar omelet. Iced tea was good, my wife didn't think the coffee was very good which is a little disappointing for a breakfast spot but the food more than made up for it. read more

I continue to be impressed with the quality eats out here in Benson. I was hesitant on this place at first, but they truly shined! The corn chowder, guacamole, ribs, and salads were all delux - between my wife and I we still has to carry out a half rack of the ribs and half the fries they came with. Good stuff! Definitely a worthy stop! read more

This cute cafe hit the spot for our overnight stay in Benson! Would visit again. Large portions and fresh food.

On Sunday they offer prime rib and eggs which is fabulous! For lunch I would recommend their Club Sandwich, in 46 years I have only found one better, the Commerce Club at the U.S. Dept. of Commerce cafeteria in D.C., but that one was subsidized. The Biscuits and Gravy are tremendous! read more

I've eaten here on several occasions and been more than satisfied with the service and the food

We were there the day after Christmas 2016 they were a little understaffed but the food was excellent the portions were good sized and we would definitely return again everything appeared to be handmade such as the chicken strips onion rings and the pastrami. read more

Great value, generous portions! Biscuits and Gravy are great for breakfast. The biscuits are home made and HUGE smothered in luscious white gravy. Omelets never disappoint. Home potatoes are tasty with grilled onions and peppers in them. For lunch, the Mushroom Swiss Burgers are juicy and hot. Side order of Chili Cheese fries have generous portion of cheese and chili. You can have them as a meal in itself. This place cost the same as the other local diners but you get generous portions and it's tasty! I come here at least once a week. read more

This place was super busy but we were seated quickly and service was great. Breakfast was really good. Biscuits are huge and gravy excellent. Eggs and French toast was great.

I go there about every morning for breakfast. I am a snow birder from Montana. It's one of the best little restaurants in the country. Good food, great service and clean. There is a line to get in and a line to get out, but it is worth it. read more

When I first entered the place I was a little off put by the decor. It is generally a western theme but seriously dated. All of that went away once the wait staff said hello. The ladies were all very friendly. The well magarita was sufficiently tasty. I ordered a bacon avocado burger and it was excellent. I will come here again. read more

I've been here once before & my friend a thousand times over & my friend thinks highly of this place & her husband & his friends often eat @ this place. The food is typically worthwhile, however not today!! We are thinking we must of gotten a new waitress, for it took our order way too long to get to the table. I'm not quiet sure how this waitress made it through the lunch rush. We got there just shortly after the rush hour & people were starting to leave. What is this waitresses excuse for slacking so long when only serving us Tea & Salad(?), there is no excuse. I remember her blaming the cook, by saying it would be here soon, (it may of been when it registered in her head to finally put the order in. We were ready to leave & when she came to our table, I asked her if the tea was free, cause we were ready to leave. Ironically, sad was she was just serving our salads by then. She was a slacker & got no tip!! However, a penny was all her service was worth: it was amazing she could actually serve refills of tea. She served others in a timely matter, so why was she so slow with us? There is no excuse, that she can give for her incompetence!! From now on, I will be using my iphone to time waitresses, due to lack of time management on this waitresses untimely delivery of our food to our table & I'll be sure to take notes of names: sad there is no time to relax & enjoy a meal: knowing it will be delivered as soon as possible. All I remember of the waitress was that she was a heavy set woman & she had dark hair. We had been there an hour, B4 our salad was served to us: according to my friend. We ate & left abt., a 1/2 hour later!! What a waist of time that was. read more

Cozy, home-style, café. Many items available. Had the Country Fried Steak and it was very tasty. Husband enjoyed his pastrami on rye. Reasonably priced. Our ticket was less then 21 dollars including a coffee and beer. Got salads with each meal too. Would recommend to anyone needing the get off the freeway for a break. Trains run right across the street. read more

Group of 7 of us ate there tonight, as it was recommended by friends. They were right the food was great and the waitress super friendly and efficient. I had the chicken fried chicken dinner and it was excellent read more

We just had breakfast at The Horseshoe Cafe. It was everything we hoped for and more! The eggs were cooked just right; the hash browns nice and crispy; the coffee was kept refilled, hot, and very good. Although we had to wait about 10 minutes to be seated, the service was quick and our server was attentive. What a breakfast...and at a great price. Stop here and you won't be disappointed...at least for breakfast. I suspect that the other meals would be good as well, because these folks take their service and food seriously! read more

This place was fun - a true diner. It looks a bit shady from the outside, but don't let that stop you if you are hungry. The waitstaff was knowledgable on the menu, and helped me decide between my top two. I went with a simple grilled ham and cheese. It was just like my mom would have made, and hit the spot. They serve breakfast all day (definite plus) and make sure to save room for dessert. The pastry counter looked absolutely fantabulous! read more

Cold Country potatoes. Dried out biscuits with over sweet gravy. They offered to microwave them after putting hot sauce on them rather than giving us new cooked potatoes. My mom had twice as many potatoes than me that were also cold. She did not eat her biscuits and gravy either. Unacceptable Birthday breakfast for my mom. I will never return here. read more
