Stay away. Seriously... I question the cleanliness of this restaurant, everywhere you walk you can hear your shoes sticking to the floor and the chairs are filthy! Food - worst chicken and waffles. Waffles were similar to what you would get from and eggo box. Service - was meh. read more

1431 Cafe - Filthy chairs! Don't wear white or your Sunday clothing. - American Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

I have to admit this is only the second time I have eaten there in 10 years, My wife and I went out for breakfast, the goofy waitress could not answer questions about the menu. Also I have never had pancakes you have to cut with a knife. Needless to say we will try again in another 10 years. read more

Great breakfast served by Gavin this morning! Poached eggs were awesome no water; omelette was great too. Love the coffee mugs . Get here by 9am or you may have to wait. We will be back! read more

I eat breakfast here every time I get a chance. I think they have the best breakfast ever. The red neck Benedict is the best, their sausage gravy is so delicious I have them cover everything on the plate with it. read more

I got here on a very packed day. This is a good sign obviously. But it took ridiculously long. When you have two kids under four the max you can do is about hour and a half before patience is gone while at a table. It took 2.5 hours total. Would I recommend coming here? Probably, just not on a busy day. Food was decent and a good price. It's More of your traditional home style cooking. Waitress was nice and she kept apologizing. We made the best of it! read more

Great place to have breakfast.. old school dinner with a fresh menu.. my go to place for breakfast. You can't go wrong here.

Great service, delicious food. Had possibly the best chicken fried steak in my life. Definitely come here for a nice big breakfast.

Bummed out by this cafe. Pancakes were dry, and hard to swallow, burger was mediocre at best. There was no life to the cafe, servers appeared to not enjoy being there at all, the lighting was dark as all blinds were closed, and ceiling lights on and fans, that made the light across the table almost like a strobe light. I understand a staff shortage anywhere right now due to covid, but it seemed full staffed and like No one cares. Won't be going back. read more

We stopped by for some brunch and even though it was busy, we were seated pretty quickly. Our waitress was pretty nice, obviously busy but nice none the same. The place is clean and a bit older - or the furniture is as there were tears in the seats but they were still comfortable. With a dessert display case, this place definitely has a classic local diner vibe to it. There is many comfort type foods in the menu and a large enough selection that even the most finicky of eaters can find something to eat. We ordered: - Patty Melt: Rye bread with grilled onion, American & Swiss cheese and a 6 oz patty cooked medium well. Served with Fries or Potato Salad $7.79 This was the most classic way to serve a Patty Melt in my opinion. The bread was fresh, the patty cooked perfect and lots of melted cheese. Every bite of this was heaven. I loved it. The french fries I chose for my side were ok, but needed to have been fried a bit longer for that crispy effect which I think they were going for with that coating on them. The husband ordered: - Redneck Benedict: A Buttermilk Biscuit topped with Scrambled Eggs, Patty Sausage & Sausage Gravy. Served with Cafe Potatoes, Grits or Sliced Tomatoes. $11.89 This is a large plate of food. He ordered Cafe Potatoes and from previous reviews I read about this, he ordered them extra crispy which he was glad he did. The gravy was thick and hearty and he enjoyed his meal plenty. Only thing I would have liked to see different is the price which was a bit higher than should have been. Pros: Patty Melt, Biscuits and Gravy Cons: French Fries, cost If there were half stars available for the rating, I would have given a 3.5 but there isn't so 3 stars it is. Although we did enjoy our meal, its was not overly top - write home to your Mama kind of experience. But, we may be back to try other menu items. read more

Stopped by after reading the great reviews. 1431 checked all the boxes. I had the waffle...tender and delicious. My DH had the sausage gravy and biscuits. The service was fast, friendly, and efficient. The cafe was busy with a short wait list when we arrived, but the hostess offered bar seating so we had a nice table there. Arrive early. We left about 11:30, and the wait time was much longer. read more

Here for breakfast & what a selection! Eggs were perfect, sourdough toast still warm when it got to my table, and the 1/2 & 1/2 Tea not over-sweet. Friendly staff. A good place to meetup to get good home-style cooking. * If you don't eat butter blends, bring your own butter. Easy access, ample parking read more

Jeez where to begin? Well if you are the Home Cooking type meal person, then 1431 Cafe is your place and will not disappoint! You are served piping hot food, freshly prepared to order, by friendly staff with great service. Their menu has something for everyone and the portions are huge too. My first time visiting was due to a cousin who was adamant about us trying 1431... so we did and We were impressed from the start. Looking around at different tables and their choices, it made it difficult for us to make a choice for ourselves! From omelets to crème brûlée french toast to chicken fried steak and homemade biscuits and gravy, it's seriously unbelievably good. I am now pleading any of those who are reading my review, to give them a chance to change your life. Oh and they have adult beverages also... kid friendly, get there early it fills up quickly and there will be a a wait! read more

(Edit: increased to four stars because, in truth, we did not ask for corrections on the pale toast and the cool gravy. We were cold and hungry. Had just left doctor's office, and we just wanted to eat and go home, so sending back food would have been an unwelcome delay. Appreciate the manager's gracious reply to initial revue. Server really needs some additional training, however.) An ok breakfast. Busy place. Crispy potatoes were plentiful. Good coffee. Pale toast. Gravy not hot. Eggs over medium cooked perfectly, which is a rarity! Got one coffee refill by the person who delivered our food (not our server). Had to ask for the check....server avoided making eye contact, so it took a little time. Server did offer coffees to go, but had offered no refills during our meal, even though before we got our food we scooted our empty cups to the edge of the table, in a pleading sort of way. Still looking for a satisfying breakfast place. (We tip 20% for ok service but much higher for good service. Chatty babble doesn't increase the tip. Now I know why the people being seated before us asked for a specific server.) read more

Classic diner with good food and friendly folks. The wait can get long sometimes so plan ahead. We love their breakfast!

Really good down-home, country cooking kind of place. We stopped in here to have a quick breakfast before heading out for a day in Austin, and really enjoyed our experience. It was obvious a lot of the customers were regulars, with the way they were interacting with the staff, which I always enjoy seeing. I got a veggie omelet and my husband got their standard breakfast with eggs, bacon, and pancakes with a side of biscuits and gravy. We stuffed ourselves silly trying to get it all down, lol. We knew we couldn't take any leftovers and didn't want to waste good food! Everything was very good, and if we were in the area again, we would definitely stop by. read more

1431 Cafe - Country breakfast w/biscuits and gravy and a veggie omelet - American Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

Good service, food and big portions. Only reason I gave it a four is because they messed up my order and lat seasoning.

First time here & will be back. Food was great & service was good. Prices are a little high but the serving portions are huge. Tried the Chicken Fried Bacon- OMG should be against the law it is so yummy. read more

Staff was very friendly. Portions were big. Food tasted great. Fancy French toast was delicious. Chicken fried steak was excellent!

What a disappointment! I have eaten breakfast many times at the 1431 Cafe and I always order the same thing which is always good: one blueberry pancake, one link sausage and coffee. The pancake was stuck to the plate and was mushy and tasteless, the sausage was fine, just not hot, the coffee was old. My friend who was with me ordered an omelet, a biscuit, and coffee. Same disappointment: no cheese on the omelet, a cold biscuit and old coffee. We told the server why we weren't happy with our meals because she asked us. She told us the standard reason the meal sucked: new chef in the kitchen. The chef/manager came out to ask us why we were unhappy - we told her what we told the server. Same excuse, new chef, just apologies. No free meal. I paid $25.00 for the meal. It will be quite awhile before we return to 1431 Cafe. read more

Their omelets are awesome and you can trade a bread for pancake!! Breakfast dessert. Or maybe two if you try their peanut butter pie. Staff is always professional with a smile. read more

Way back when they first opened, we went here for dinner. It was not an enjoyable experience so I have avoided this place even after they changed owners. Reading their reviews, it appears their breakfast gets more stars. This Sunday I was wanting more for my first meal than a donut. Not much to choose from unless you want to travel and IHOP had a line out the door. I drive across the street to see if 1431 had a line. It didn't so I stayed. Seated quickly in a booth without asking for it (Yeah!). Within minutes my waitress, Tasha, asks what I'd like to drink. Coffee. She brings back my coffee and a water. So I order the 1431 Café special (2 Pancakes/eggs/bacon and a juice). Talk about a quick serve, I hadn't even finished my coffee and my plate was in front of me. Bacon was crispy and so good. The eggs were not dry but were cooked a slight amount more than I would have like. The pancakes were big. Pancakes are my addiction so they better be good. These could have been except they lump one scoop of butter on hot food so most of it melted in the center of the top cake. I tried to spread the rest around on both pancakes but was unsuccessful. The syrup is not served in a bottle or pitcher. They give you about an ounce in a tiny plastic cup. Again trying to cover both cakes was mission impossible. This lead to virtually dry pancakes. Half of the pancakes were left on my plate due to this factor. Pricing was reasonable and service was great. I will give them another try for the Crème Brulee French toast. read more

Awful. Highly don't recommend. The service was trash. They only gave you one menu per table, or maybe that's just how they treated our table. It took 30 minutes to finally take our order and by then I decided I didn't want to place the order if it takes them that long to seat and get service imagine how long it would've taken to actually get the food ‍ I should've trusted the ratings and reviews on here. The food looked like it could've been good, but the service definitely makes the restaurant look bad. In response to the owners comment* I didn't have an issue with paper menus, I completely understand that the pandemic makes running businuesses hard for especially the dinning industry. I tip very generously and also dont mind an upcharge when charged in resturants because of this. Gatta keep things running somehow. But you referenced simply asking for more, I asked about it and was denied, nor was my party offered if we wanted *possibly* an extra. I reffered to yelp for the menu. I understand that you want to save the cost of printing hundreds of unnecessary paper but are you also saving costs by only wiping down half a table? This was again my personal experience at your resturant and im not usually a negative reviewer! Hopefully other new customers have the pleasent experience you're reffering to. read more

We have had many a good meal at the 1431 Cafe in the past but today was a really off day, both our meals were less than what we expected. We went to the 1431 Cafe Feb 12 around 12:30 and the place was almost full, so we expected the food to be hot and fresh. Miranda took our order of a Corned Beef Benedict and a Fried Cod sandwich. I have never had the Corned Beef Benedict at the 1431 Cafe before and will not have it again. The service was the usual good service, the meal arrived quickly, it was hot but that is all I can say good about it. The Corned Beef was the strangest flavor and color of Corned Beef I have ever seen. The taste matched the color, very strange taste. If someone gave me it without knowing what it was supposed to be, I would not necessary call it meat. I first tried it at the edges to see how it tasted plain, bad start that got worse the more I tried it. Whatever it was, it was overcooked, lacked normal flavor, and extremely dry. There were sections of ground "Beef" that were just uneatable because they were ground but in lumps that I could not chew. The eggs were OK, but with the other flavor I could not even enjoy them. After a few bites I gave up on the meal and ate the crispy(?) potatoes. The second meal was a Fried Cod sandwich, which the waitress warned us was going to be too big on the bun to eat as a sandwich, she was correct, it was very tall. Again the Fried Cod was very over cooked, dry and tasteless, we have had better at a local drive thru. It will be a while before we go back, but we will go back and see if this was just an off day or a trend. The staff are first rate, very nice, attentive and quick. When the waitress removed our plates at the end of the meal she did not ask how the meal was, maybe she could tell as both our plates had lots left on the plate and we did not request a "doggie" bag to go. With the waitress was using electronic order entry but I would not have expect the waitress to take my credit card and have to take it to the front desk. On previous occasions this has happened but I figured by now they would have this automated at the table. read more

Food and service is always so good!!! My boyfriend and I love getting breakfast here.

Initially being really excited to try this place because it's been on my list of restaurants to try for months. I don't really understand why it's gotten as good of ratings as it has with the experience that I had. My group of 7 was told that the wait was going to be "20-30 minutes" this past Sunday. I understand that it is a very busy day for everyone as people and big groups want to go to brunch. But after an hour and fifteen minutes passed, my husband went inside to check on the wait. Supposedly they were about to go outside to tell us our table was ready. Upon sitting down, we were greeted (at a very timely manner, I'll say that much) by Ellie. Almost immediately, the entire group felt an extremely awkward tension with her. She was extremely short, didn't take the time to explain the menu when we had questions, gave us one worded responses, was really rude to my young fifteen year old nephew and said to "speak up", and at one point she literally threw down the straws she forgot to bring for our drinks. About fifteen minutes before our table was finished we could tell her attitude changed. I'm not too sure what was wrong in the first place, but if you work in customer service (let alone a place where you work for tips) there needs to be an understanding of treating people as you would want to be treated. The food was mediocre, to put it simple. We were really exited to try the chicken fried bacon but there was just absolutely no taste. I'm not normally one to have experiences such as this one so that was honestly the sole purpose of this Yelp review. I hope others have better experiences as I clearly did not. read more

The food is really good BUT the Manager, older hostess with long gray hair and the big blonde waitress are VERY RUDE. We waited to sit at the bar for breakfast with Tracy who is fantastic!!! However for the second visit in a row the hostess and manager keep seating partial parties and walk-ins not on the list well ahead of us and other customers when their sign specifically says WAIT TO BE SEATED THIS INCLUDES THE BAR. The food is good, but the attitude of the Manager is HORRIBLE. They are also rather rude to the older woman making the customer seating list, they show her very little respect. Tracy who works very hard and serves the bar with the utmost courtesy and concern is the best thing the place has going for it. The Manager there this morning needs to be fired!!! I told him I wanted the owners number and he refused to provide it after saying he would. He doesn't want the complaint obviously. Guess what, you forgot about FACEBOOK and YELP. He lost 5 customers in 2 parties this morning inn a matter of minutes due to his rude behaviour, poor attitude and breaking their own posted seating policies. He tried to blame it on the customer (us) when it is their posted policy not to seat partials or at the bar without being on the list. When I told him he was in the wrong line of work and doesnt belong in the hospitality industry his retort was "so find a different restaurant" We did... I Hop is right across the street. This is NOT the way to treat customers or rumba privately owned business with so much competition nearby. Enjoy the review and the loss of my business, the other party who left and hopefully anyone else who reads this review. read more

Glad I didn't go off of top reviews there... service was great, welcoming and good old fashioned diner! They even have oatmeal!! Lol so so good. Everything we ordered was great - we will be back read more

Manager is extremely rude!!!! I calmly asked her a question and she yelled at me in the middle of the crowded restaurant in front of everyone because I was asking her to clarify a seating area!!! I'm never going back ! Your response is convenient! I only tried to add a chair to an existing table that was actually farther away from people than the other 2 chairs all while 10 people are elbow to elbow at the bar! So much for your adherence to social distancing! For you to yell at the top of your lungs at me in front of a crowded restaurant shows how unprofessional you are!! I'll never be back ! No excuse for your behavior today!!! That's not how you treat customers!! You were aggressive from the start!! Maybe you need a break from customer service!!! read more

We were looking for IHOP. This was across the street from where IHOP was supposed to be. No GF pancakes so I got oatmeal and fruit. My husband got pancakes, eggs and sausage. The waitress asked him if he wanted 2 or 3 pancakes. The pancakes were huge. He was glad that he said 2. Excellent food and service. We will return when we are in town again. read more

I don't know where some of these people ate. I have been a regular patron of 1431 Cafe for 2 years and can only recall one instance when the cook slid off the rails. The problem was quickly corrected and I left smiling as usual. In addition to the great home style food and friendly service. I would call out my server today for excellence, but it wouldn't be fair to all the others. They are all first rate and smiling even when rushed and tired. Oh, BTW the house made deserts are GREAT. Try it you'll be glad you did. Michael K. read more

The food used to be pretty good and the service was acceptable. We think that the restaurant has new management because both the food and service are very subpar. There seemed to be enough help as we have gone twice at opening. Omelette was greasy and toast and potatoes were cold. No one checking back to see if everything is ok until it's time to pay the check. The first time we thought it was a fluke, so gave the diner another chance, but had the same experience. Too bad, too as we were biweekly regulars. read more

This place is NOT child friendly. Please do not go here if you have children. My 1 year old was accused of "vandalism" and "grafitti" by the wait staff because she drew on their table with the crayons that they provided. We tried to prevent her from doing it but with children especially toddlers things can happen fast and this place cannot handle it. We did not deserve the way we were approached about the so called "vandalism" with the crayons. read more
