The whole menu was old time comfort food, and the preparation did not disappoint. Five of us went for Saturday breakfast/lunch and everyone left full and happy. Although they weren't real busy, we didn't have to wait for anything, refills were delivered before we ran out, condiments were brought to the table immediately after being requested, and when we finished we weren't left waiting for our check so we could head out. The restaurant was decorated with historical signage from Bedford that was very enjoyable to view, and the cashier was located in a small gift shop. Very nostalgic, even the prices didn't break the bank. read more

Friendly place, several people greeted us. Our server was helpful and food came quickly. Fun venue in an old freight dock.

It's in a place called "the terminal" which is like a trucking hub so you may think (as I did) your GPS has led you astray. It's a got a pretty basic simple menu, not a lot of crazy things. This is a good thing as I think they're able to really focus on and dial in on what they do. The inside is decorated with lots of bits of Americana and old timey gas station signs and the like. There are many many aprons hung around the place as decoration as well. Right as you walk in there's a big WALL OF MUGS and you grab a coffee mug off of there to bring to the table if you'll be having coffee. They are all different and a majority of them today were Christmas themed as today is Christmas Eve. They do a good job of keeping your coffee cup topped off. I ordered biscuits and gravy, 2 eggs over easy, and sourdough toast. Everything was very good and the gravy was nicely seasoned which is often lacking at restaurants (IMHO). read more

Poor service, weak coffee. Food was pretty good, tho, limited menu. They expect you to know the check is in their office, by the door, and you have to grab your coffee cup on your way in. read more

Friendly service feels like at home because I can tell them exactly what I want and that is exactly what I get

I dig it ! The setting is cool. Industrial throwback. Everyone is nice and helpful. They may not remember your name or order the place is a bit big. Def worth stopping by more than once. Great lunch specials. I got the brisket sandwich. 7$ no side read more

Friendly service, delicious home-cooked farm-style food, and very reasonable prices. You can tell the meals are made with care. A great place to enjoy comforting, down-home cooking. read more

Delicious. fresh food. Great biscuits and gravy and don't be afraid to try the breakfast quinoa bowl.

Friendly atmosphere. Good prices and service. Unfortunately, the biscuits and gravy were a big disappointed. the biscuit was a very cheap frozen biscuit with zero flakey layers. Didn't try the drip coffee. The cinnamon french toast was good. read more

This was our first time to visit this restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised by the delicious food and wonderful service. Our server, Bella was amazing! We will definitely return when we are in the area again! read more

Of the beaten path diner. No alternative milk for coffee, offers ice tea. There's a daily special board by the kitchen and they have a couple of community tables here. Credit cards accepted. read more

Wish I could tell you about the food, but we never got served after waiting over 15 minutes for a waitress. There was a waitress that NOTICED us but never even took our drink order or acknowledged us. It was very crowded in there and very loud. The menu is incredibly limited and the prices seem quite high for the area and atmosphere. We were going to get taco salads if we were able to order, as the only other lunch offerings were basically soup and tuna/chicken salad sandwiches. Their breakfast may be good, but I doubt we'll ever find out. I am a reasonable person and I understand being short staffed, but when the server is looking right at you and ignoring you, it doesn't make you want to stay...or return. read more

If you are within the area of Bedford Indiana, this is a must stop! Homemade bread for breakfast sandwich is amazing! The wrap with gravy is delicious, good fried taters but better hash brown cheesy casserole (funeral potatoes) sweet and friendly awesome staff! Best ambience for a breakfast/lunch dinner, used to be a truck dock and you get to pick your own coffee cup, very cool. Tables range from school desk to bowling alley tables. read more

My least favorite part about traveling for work is that I have to eat out more often. Apron Strings made it feel like a home cooked meal! Great food, excellent service and a fun atmosphere. Highly recommend read more

Food was ok. Drinks were terrible. Sweet tea was brown semisweet water. Coffee was brown unflavored water. Yuck.

Great unique restaurant. Service may bit slower than you're used to but not unreasonable. Food was delicious and arrived in a timely manner. Would return if in the area again. read more

This is a charming restaurant in an unexpected location. I appreciate the vintage decor and the "pick a cup" option. The service is friendly and polite. The menu isn't large but there are always interesting daily specials, plus the best bacon I have ever had. Literally, THE best. read more

If you wanted something fancy and special, this isn't the place. This is SO MUCH BETTER!!! This restaurant is ALL about the community, all about serving love in every dish. They make you feel like you're part of the family from the moment you walk in the door. That's the the emotions that you get, let alone the food... oh my goodness... THE VERY VERY BEST French toast you've ever eaten. Even better than my Dad's and that's saying a lot. The staff are always friendly, know your order before you sit down and tell you that they can't wait to see you again tomorrow! They have large family style tables so you sit amongst everyone else, and if you don't know someone, it doesn't matter because you leave as friends! Come for the food and stay for the family and new friends! read more

Service & food was great. I will definitely be back!!! This place beats Dennys & Bob Evans!

Not much on the menu but I prefer that because I feel the food quality is always better at a place with fewer options. The service was really good. I will 100% be returning here. read more

I tried breakfast at the Apron Strings for the first time this year, when a friend asked me to take him there. Although the restaurant is somewhat off the beaten path, the food is well worth it. Apron Strings has the usual breakfast fare of eggs, pancakes, bacon and sausage, has browns, biscuits & gravy, etc.. The space inside the restaurant is large and spacious, and the ambiance is that of a down-home diner: warm and welcoming. It sometimes takes the wait staff awhile to get to you, but be patient--the food is worth the wait, and it's a pleasant place to spend some time. The restaurant closes when breakfast has ended, so don't show up and demand food when they are closing up for the day! read more

Great food and service!! Breakfast was so good. Home cooking and great hospitality. Try the biscuits and gravy!!

Very good food, excellent service and nice atmosphere We enjoyed the ambiance! (Remodeled warehouse....unique) read more

Great prices and a very pleasant atmosphere. The biscuits and gravy were satisfying with plenty of gravy. I also had delicious cinnamon stuffed French toast. Still hungry I ordered a bacon egg and cheese sandwich. The bread was fresh and warm. They offer several bread choices some baked on site. She had an omelette. My only complaint is that the eggs were not made with much skill. My scrambled on the sandwich was just plain fried and her omelette wasn't very blended either and had very little cheese. I will be back because it is affordable and tasty besides the egg issues read more

Location has changed. Restaurant is west on eighth street. 2501 8th street. The food is awesome. The best biscuits and gravy and homemade bread. Fun decor. Staff was friendly and hustling to keep our coffee cups filled. read more

Great Food Great people and you get large portions and it's not high priced like other restaurants. And they have Good coffee that's a plus in my book. I will definitely be back my friends and I and spreading the news about this place! They don't advertise for word of mouth is enough Love the atmosphere also, All kinds of different Apron's hanging on the walls. Many of Grandma's or Mama's owned them cooking meals for their families at one time. read more

Apron Strings Bedford Indiana - Breakfast skillet and it was delicious and plentiful!! Needed a to go box! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Bedford, Indiana

Great food, very friendly staff. It felt like being with family. We would recommend this restaurant!

First time here and trying it because of it's rating and others telling me that it was good food. So I went at 10:00 on Saturday and it was pretty packed. A couple offered to share their table with me, but I decided to wait and there were plenty of people leaving so it was not too much of a wait. The cafe is pretty small and they did have outdoor dining as an option. The wait staff is pretty young but they were keeping busy trying to keep up with the crowd. It just seemed a little bit unorganized. I ordered the breakfast skillet with sausage. Overall it was OK - not great, not bad either. Good size portion. The sausage gravy was a little bland for me. The price was extremely affordable. Less than $10 for the meal which you will be hard-pressed to find anywhere these days. And the food came out pretty quick which was good. Would I eat here again? Yeah, probably would give it another try. They are busy for a reason so will likely try them again in the future. read more

Ordered a cheese, ham and sausage omelette, limp bacon, well done hash browns and toast. The waitress brought a ham omelette (I seen no cheese and definitely no sausage), lightly cooked hash browns, well done bacon and 1 piece of toast. (I ordered 2 slices; 1 slice came with the omelette and it was $0.95 for the second slice of bread). I told the waitress of the goof ups and she wouldn't take my plate to fix my food BUT she brought me a cup of cold shredded cheese to put in my omelette (yum). Another waitress stopped by, I again told of the goof ups, she took my plate (plus the other persons plate I was with... her plate was just as messed up) and brought back our food correctly cooked except for the bacon. It was still hard. When asked about it, the lady proceeded to tell us that they fry their bacon all at once in the early mornings and the bacon we got, was the limpest they had left. (This was around 10:30 am). Our drinks ran out and I had to flag down another girl to refill our tea. Where our original waitress went? We never seen her again past the time we ordered. Needless to say, we won't be returning anytime soon. When you pay THAT much for breakfast food (25$ for two people) you expect the food to be freshly cooked and get decent service. Not food that's hours old and shabby waitressing. read more

Nice little place with good food and great prices. They have limited seating, but we did not have a problem.
