Country Cafe

Food was delicious. Coffee was hot. The finning is a bit tight and quite small. Very homey. Portions are not the greatest, menu prices reflect it. We enjoy chicken fried steak and breakfast steak.

I came across this delightful cafe while traveling the backroads between Dallas and Waco. It is a small place and I almost didn’t stop but I am so glad I did. Walking through the entrance I was transported back to the late seventies, felt like I had stepped into 1978 and it was glorious! The place is small with just a few tables, so I bellied up to the bar and ordered a nice large iced tea. The menu itself looked like it was typed on a typewriter and if it was not for the modern prices, I would have sworn it was actually a menu from 1978. The place was filled with several regulars that you just knew came there almost every day. Since I was in that seventies state of mind, I ordered the Grilled Chopped Steak ( aka Salisbury Steak ) it was so good, I gobbled that sucker right up. I was actually kind of sad to leave the place. If I lived in Waxahachie, I could easily see myself trying to eat here at least once a week… go give it a try!

The place was a cute little hole in the wall
Breakfast stops right at 10:45! We ended up getting lunch, which was very tasty.. Service was a bit slow once we got the food. Overall, nice spot and good prices.

CFS with mashed ‘taters and fried okra: very tasty for under $10.
Fish&shrimp combo (today’s special on the board): equally tasty.

Service: friendly but a tad off.

Inside: totally charming space.
