My boyfriend loved his chicken fried steak! I wasn't very adventurous & got a club sandwich but it was still a good club. Crispy bacon & fries were not overly salty or greasy. The peach cobbler was good but my boyfriend ate it so fast I couldn't get a pic. Great cafe!! read more

West Side Cafe - Club - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

Always fantastic! Food and service. Management runs this restaraunt better then anyone else in town.

This place has amazing breakfast! The waitresses are so sweet and I love that they have added extra precautions during the pandemic. Hand sanitizer available at entry, masks must be worn when not eating and plastic liner between the booths. Thank you for going above and beyond for your customers. read more

Oh my goodness. Raised a southern girl from Tennessee they do comfort food like I am still in Tennessee. The service is phenomenal!

This is as country as you can get and I love it. I wanted this for early breakfast on my way out of Texas, and the diner style seating with vets everywhere is exactly what I was looking for. COUNTRY STYLE BREAKFAST Three eggs any style, bacon, sausage or ham with 2 pancakes. Yummy yummy on all fronts. Bacon was nice and crispy but not oily, eggs were perfectly cooked and pancakes were light and fluffy TWO EGGS WITH BISCUIT AND GRAVY OR TOAST The eggs I got sunny side up, cooked perfectly and the biscuit was good. I wish i got two biscuits though, one isn't enough. COFFEE Standard but good. Woke me up so it did its job. read more

West Side Cafe - Country style breakfast and biscuits and gravy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

If you're over 70, have thin blood and thick patience, you're going to have a GREAT time. If this place has some sort of nostalgic value for you, you'll probably have an okay time. If you're looking for a feel-good, southern experience served greasy-spoon style, keep on driving and find Denny's. This place has never been my favorite, but my family often shackles me in family obligation and drags me to it. The food is mediocre, bland and dull. The pancakes and the patty melt are the only things I've found that I really like on the menu, everything else I've tried lacks spice and passion. It's undoubtedly the same menu since they've opened and most of their clientel is the same too... As well as the decor. It seems like every server I've ever had barely speaks above a whisper, treats your table as if were fresh out of quaranteen and is happy to place the ticket on your table right as they serve your meal. However, we WERE offered front row seats to a really fantastic interview conducted by a manager and a former wal-mart employee while we waited for them to set up our table. Not awkward at all. I really liked the way the cashier blatantly displayed annoyance when the group of 5 I was part of, ordered our pie to go up front since our waitress became Mr. Magoo near our table once the food and ticket were served together. She even made sure to be as dramatic as possible and ask someone else to write the 5 pie order down so she could concentrate on not paying attention. On that note, the pie was delicious in the confines of my home and I was much happier. I've had decent service here before, but not enough to convince me that this outdated, grimy place is worth my dime. But hey, if you wanna buy my dinner, I'll go. Because that makes it technically free and free is always welcomed in my belly. read more

Before noon on a Thursday the place was almost full which is a pretty good indication of its popularity of good food. Both hubby and I ordered the steak and eggs, his with the biscuit and gravy and mine with a pancake. The steak was cooked well. I ordered my eggs over hard but they came out like scrambled just in one piece so that was disappointing. Pancake was delicious, served w warm syrup and biscuit and gravy were pretty good. Service was great and all the servers were really friendly. While we waited for our food, I was so impressed when I saw a gentleman cleaning the table. He actually moved all the condiments (ketchup, creamer, sugar packets, jelly etc) and wiped ALL over the table and even wiped under the ketchup bottle. read more

I come here almost every Sunday. I had to upgrade the stars from 3 to 4 for two reasons: 1) coffee cup stays filled 2) your meal is consistently delicious, hot, quick, and cheap Okay, so that's actually waaaaay more than 2 reasons. read more

I have been going here for years for it's hot cooked southern style meals. Most of the time it is for lunch and I get the Chicken Fried Chicken with cream gravy, mashed potatoes, and fried okra. MMMM...Delish. The breakfast is good too. The amount of food you get for the money is surprisingly decent, not overwhelming, but not skimpy either. read more

West Side Cafe has traditional menu, well prepared food, and flawless service. Their website? They don't have one! It is located in an old Pizza Hut building on the far West side of Camp Bowie, almost to 820. West Side opened in 1995, but many people swear it's been there forever. No frills, but have a few unique practices. Hostess takes and fulfills drink orders at time of seating. Note the bus people and mangers patrolling the aisles searching for a napkin on the floor, drink needing a refill, or an empty plate ready to be cleared. Everyone talks about the pork chops, pancakes, and hash browns. Also believe their chicken fried steak is really good. Personally, I enjoy the breakfast burrito. read more

Ok so first off don't let it fool you by it's looks . This place was actually amazing. Super delicious food. I had the chicken fried chicken my kids had burgers and they were great read more

Will be going back, for sure!! read more

Went for breakfast a few weeks ago, service was great and food was even better. They were busting tail to make sure everything was clean and people were separated. Big thumbs up for this place. read more

Weird place to a big city oriented girl but I was hungry on the cheap. The itty bitty table they put me at had people and staff constantly bumping my chair. Try eating that way. Actually once I added hashbrowns to my traditional breakfast the price was comparable to anywhere else I've been. Bacon eggs toast or biscuit n hashbrowns $7 bucks. Same as everywhere else pretty much. Biscuit was completely forgettable. Taste like the Pillsbury ones that come in a can. Turkey bacon n hashbrowns were just ok. Staff were nice but didnt really pay much attention in my opinion if your glass was empty or whatever. I really dont like places that give you that 1 paper napkin they roll the silverware in thats been touched by a million hands and no offer of more napkins. I keep wipes in my purse for this reason. Line goes by fast if you go on the weekend. Chicken fried steak or chicken is a couple bucks cheaper than TX Roadhouse but the rolls looked cold. I was checking out other folks side items and they looked less than mouth watering. If I was over that way I would go back but nothing special here. Dont go out your way. read more

This place is like your "Go-to" favorite pair of jeans!!! Its always right, always good and always friendly. The service is tops for diners, the food is tasty and comes out fast. We love this joint for breakie and have NEVER been disappointed! read more

Alright, first of all, this is an old school diner. That means it's been around the block a few times. It's an older establishment that has, from my experience and the reviews, been churning out good food for many years. From the outside it doesn't look like much, but once inside the place is a beehive of activity. Weekend mornings you can expect it to be busy and you may have to wait. It's worth it. One of the best breakfast experiences I have had in a long time. Food was served hot and fast by attentive, friendly servers. I will definitely be back! read more

Really liked this place! The food was really good--the biscuits were fresh & fluffy, the gravy was light and not too heavy. The sausage was also light and didn't seem like it had sat under a heat lamp for an hour like other places, and my eggs were cooked exactly as I ordered them. This is the first time my wife has ordered bacon extra crispy and it came out just right. They just seem to know what they're doing in the kitchen! The service was attentive, but not overbearing. And the food came out pretty fast. It has an old diner decor and feel, but they seem to run everything very well. The place was still packed at 10:30 am! Can't wait to try lunch sometime! P.S. I really enjoyed checking out the photos of servicemen and women on the walls. So great to honor them by name! read more

Never disappointed here. Good food, good prices, wonderful staff. The breakfasts are the best, after 10;30 you can request chicken fried steak and eggs even though it isn't on the menu. For lunch, the CFS is an excellent choice, loved the chicken and dumplings, the greens are fantastic, real mashed potatoes, and on Sundays the turkey and dressing plate can't be beat. Can't speak as to the liver and onions (yurgh) but my husband swears by them. Even tho the lines can get a bit long, the seating time is actually pretty fast, and you get some excellent people-watching in the meantime. (The bathrooms are clean but could use an update.) As for the guy with the inappropriate t-shirt, I would have tossed you out too. read more

We visited the West Side Cafe this morning for breakfast and it was our first trip since the China virus unleashed itself on all of us. We were not disappointed! Our preferred seats at the lunch counter weren't available because of Social Distancing, but we got a nice table in the back, the service was excellent as always and the quality of the food has not wavered a bit. read more

The epitome of consistency! I love this place. Familiar faces, great food. In/out in 35 minutes or stay as long as you like. You don't even have to look at the menu. Just order the special. West side favorite that truly stands the test of time. read more

Decided to check this place out for breakfast one day and I was definitely not disappointed the food was good, the service was good, the only negative is that this place is so popular and busy and you kind of feel rushed which is not really something I want to be on a Sunday morning but besides that I would definitely recommend West Side Cafe for breakfast it's good stuff. read more

Is like being at Gma's house on Sunday. Eating all three meal too. Everything or most items are made from scratch. From the time you walk in to the time you walk out,you feel at home!! A small town feel in the city. read more

Good food good service you can't good wrong at west side been eating there about 10yr . Thank you west side

Wait Time - we came on a Saturday morning at 11 am and it was extremely packed. There were 20+ people in front of us, but we got seated within 3 minutes. (We had a party of 2). Service - The other yelpers were accurate in saying that the service was awesome. Everyone was super friendly - I think I was asked 4 times by 4 different people if I was okay or needed anything else. This is what the queen of England must feel like. Food - the food was good, not superb. But still good: I went healthy and had the three egg western omelette - substituted for egg whites. Definitely recommend it to anyone trying to watch their weight. I will definitely come back again to try the pancakes and CFS though on a non healthy feeling day - they were both humongous looking! read more

West Side Cafe - Filled waiting room at 11 am on a Saturday morning. But they're calling people pretty quickly! *fingers crossed* - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

The food and the service was excellent. We had breakfast and it's like having homemade country breakfast. I love it !

Both times I've been here was only for breakfast. I would really like to try them for lunch at some point. My husband I visited a few Sundays ago. The parking lot was packed but we they were able to seat us right away. The place is much larger than it first appears. I ordered the steak and eggs with biscuit and gravy and he ordered the three egg western omelette. I had enough left over for another meal. The steak was pretty good, hashbrowns and eggs were cooked perfectly, and biscuit was fluffy and hot. Their prices are also very reasonable. I can see why this place was so packed! Will be back for sure at some point for lunch/dinner. read more

Always great service and good breakfast. I haven't been for anything except breakfast, but I'm sure the rest of the food is just as good!

Great service and delicious southern food. I ordered the steak & eggs and added a pancake. I asked for the steak to be medium rare and it actually came out red in the middle (good start). The hashbrowns were slightly crispy which is just the way I like it. The pancake was light and fluffy and they are not skimpy on the syrup (got a whole bottle for myself). There was a slight wait when we came in (noon on a weekend) but the tables move fast and we didn't have to wait long. Will definitely be back! read more

This place is EGG-CELLENT!! 5 STAR QUALITY! 4 STAR SERVICE! 2 STAR location...... this place gets PACKED! However, SAFEST PLACE in ALL of Fort Worth! Fully 100% CHL friendly! Asks CHL holders to use precision if a incident arises, however please keep it tucked away until a emergency. The food is always cooked perfect to order, the quality of the food is legit. They are using the best ingredients and preparing meals with love. *TIPS: The coffee is KILLER, biscuits are fluffy and melts in your mouth & the gravy is thick, creamy and smooth! It's to die for! So don't get toast!! Lol The prices are SUPER CHEAP! Bacon is usually crisp already so don't go well done, it already is. If you like it soft, ask. Get the salsa w/ the burritos. And go ahead and get a second cup of Joe, they make several rounds and your cup will never be empty. 4 Stars only because location and.. I do feel a little rushed. Due to how crowded it is. You are going to wait over 15min weekdays. Weekends.. psssh! Oh Man probably 30min. Minimum. Be prepared. I do love this place, just wish they would expand. Y'all deserve it and the bigger location would fill up as well guys. The way y'all do business keeps guests coming back. When a guy is as picky as I am about his over medium eggs and y'all cook it perfectly every single time... that says something. read more
