Chicken Tender Basket cornbread and sweet potato fries
Kourtney Y.

Come hungry, leave in a wheelbarrow. These portions are enormous so you're definitely getting your money's worth! When you walk in, there's a small waiting area with some trinkets and shirts. The dining room has large tables in the middle and some booths along the windows. Despite it being busy, the noise level was very reasonable. Jocelyn was our server and she was awesome. Very attentive and helpful despite having several tables. The food was delicious, but so filling. I'm not usually a corn bread person, but this was incredible and with the honey butter spread .. wow. Also- the cheesecake was the best I've had, hands down. Even better than the establishment known for cheesecake Edit: We came back for breakfast the next morning and weren't disappointed with breakfast, either. The pancake is still shockingly large despite knowing it's a 14" cake. It's hands down the best pancake I've had. Usually they're just bread to me, but this one was delicious even without butter or syrup. Make sure to order their special bacon if you want to try it- the menu says bacon, but it's just traditional bacon unless otherwise specified.

Birthday Pancake
Jai S.

We loved this place! It was so delicious!!! Everything was HUGE (they are known for bigger portions sizes)! The service was amazing & they also gave us a free birthday confetti pancake! Yummy! It was a HUGE establishment, but wait times can vary from 30 up to 2 hours on waiting when busy! (Very much a tourist attraction)!

Day one of our vacation, we came around 8am for breakfast--WOW! First of all, the service was top-notch. Zero complaints. As a matter of fact, every worker we came across seemed genuinely happy to be there. 10/10. This is a great casual joint serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner all day long. The decor and local nostalgia make you feel like you're experiencing something really special, like a true Branson local. The food was also delicious. I opted for a classic breakfast (Gail's ranch breakfast) and everything was cooked to perfection. My boyfriend got the tri tip sandwich, which I also tried, and it was FABULOUS. They know how to smoke some meat! All in all I would highly recommend!!

Fried fish
Kristi S.

We went with a very large group and we had a prefixed menu. My husband ordered the fish and it was delicious! I was low-key jealous however I was craving something sweet so I went with them giant pancake with hashbrowns and bacon. Very good. We had fantastic service, the food came out fast, and 36 people said they enjoyed their meals! The only downside is that the seats in both sides of our booth were broken down so when you sat down, your butt went straight to the wood. Absolutely no cushion at all, and you were about 6 inches shorter than you needed to be.

Service was super fast and our waiter Carissa was great! We came in on a Thursday around midday and it was pretty busy, but the service was still way quicker than we expected.My son ordered the 14-inch pancake, and we all got a kick out of how HUGE it was My daughter ordered the kids pancake, and even that was a good size! I ordered the meat omelet, but it was a little too greasy for me, so I ended up sending it back and having it taken off the bill.The rolls and hashbrowns were really good though! Overall, for the amount of food you get, the prices are very reasonable. The portions are definitely big, and we had a good experience. We would come back again to try more!

Inside
Pam W.

If you are looking for a great breakfast place in Branson, this is it! Fabulous food, friendly service, big portions, whatever you are looking for, Billy Gail's has it all. Our server was great and was happy to give us recommendations from the menu. Absolutely everything we tried was delicious. One of my favorites was the huge biscuit and side of white gravy. This sausage gravy was so good! And, of course, the 14 inch pancakes were the bomb. My husband and I couldn't even finish half of that after all of the other deliciousness, but we made a good effort, lol. Don't miss out on Billy Gail's the next time you visit Branson!

Country Fried Steak Combo
Zane G.

Nothing other to say other than... this place is awesome. Our server Barbara was attentive and always kept our drinks filled. If I have to recommend a plate... the chicken fried steak is legitimately fantastic. HUGE!! But the batter is perfect, and meat is well seasoned. Highly recommend this place to anyone! Enjoy!

Lots of road and retail signs to look at.
Michael S.

While you wait there are plenty of traffic signs and other local memorabilia on the walls to review here. But, our breakfast selection came up quickly, so there wasn't much of a wait. We two chose Billy Gayle's classic breakfast combo, which included its legendary 14-inch pancake, plus scrambled eggs, plus ham steak, plus a couple of slices of bacon, plus hash browns. That combo cost less than two standard entrées and was more than enough for two. Everything was well cooked; service was attentive. About that pancake: If you're not too hungry, a quarter of it is slightly smaller than the standard IHOP pancake, meaning one can feed multiple diners.

Pulled pork burrito and cheese curds

Service is great, but this is the worst food I have ever about had. I got the pulled pork burrito, so much egg and no meat except for the little they give you on the top of your burrito. My husband got the donut burger which he only ended up eating the patty lol. Cheese curds were okay, and potatoes were okay. Much better places to go

Cinnamon roll pancake
Michelle H.

Let me tell you I'm a huge breakfast fan! I LOOOVE a good breakfast. I was in Branson for spring break, and Billy Gail's Ultimate Breakfast Combo is my favorite thing I ate for my whole time in Branson. I chose bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, hash browns, and a French toast pancake. I had enough for 2 meals. It was very delicious, and I'm a breakfast snob. My brother had the cinnamon roll pancake and loved it. There were 9 of us, ages 9-77, and everyone enjoyed their meals.

Thanksgiving lunch (minus the pie)
Angela S.

We went in as a party of 7 on Thanksgiving day. We knew there would be a wait, but it wasn't bad! We arrived at 11 and were seated just before noon. They had an excellent Thanksgiving meal of ham, turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans, yams, stuffing, pie, oh MY! My daughters ordered the double chocolate pancake. They loved it too! Huge portions so dinner is covered. Parking is simple and I'd Highly recommend our server, Miss Pat. She is awesome!

Pancake and bacon
Scout R.

The pancakes were so yummy! Usually hate places with big portions but this one doesn't disappoint. The bacon is also really yummy and the servers were so sweet! Make a stop here for breakfast

Short stack.
Dave L.

Service was good. Regular stack of 2 pancakes fed 2 people easily and had enough leftovers for 3 additional meals. Food was tasty and filling. Highly recommend the pancakes.

We split a 5-egg omelette and a 14" pancake and could barely finish. The pancake was light and fluffy.

We had lunch at Cheddar's today, and it was a fantastic experience!…read more I ordered the 8 oz. sirloin, and it was really good. The steak was cooked just right, seasoned well, and the quality of the meat was much better than a steak I recently had at LongHorn Steakhouse. The LongHorn steak was unfortunately a bad cut of meat--it was soggy and unpleasant, even though it was seasoned and cooked properly. When we brought our concerns to the general manager there, we didn't feel like the issue was handled very well. Our experience at Cheddar's was completely different. The server was amazing, attentive, and friendly, and the general manager was extremely nice and made us feel welcome. I highly recommend the 8 oz. sirloin at Cheddar's. Great food, great service, and a management team that genuinely cares about the customer experience. I'll definitely be coming back!

We chose Cheddars. It was very good. My fried chicken, gravy, and mashed potatoes was excellent. My wife had the vegetable plate and really enjoyed it. They bring a sweet cinnamon tart to the table right off. They were delicious. Again, the food was great, but even better...our server. Angelica was a treat with a beautiful smile. She was very attentive and pleasant. She is a student here from Romania. I wanted to give a big shout out to Angelica. We enjoyed our meal and walked out of there for 30 bucks.

The paper towel dispenser wasn't advancing , so I'm fortunate I got some out.. but the other restroom seemed to be okay by the number of people that used it instead - as friends said they had trouble with the towels. Very good overall - still enjoying the last of the drink and "running around town".. :D Thank you Jessie, for your help with my order; very professional, knowledgeable & courteous!

There were 2 kiosks, one was broken and the other didn't work very well. As an employee if you saw customers struggling maybe offer to help? Or just keep talking to each other through your headphone things. The workers here chose the second option. The only staff member visible was cleaning (poorly) while telling the person on the other end of her headphones how the manager yelled at her for crumbs being left behind. "Well if he says anything tomorrow I'm going to tell him it was the customers here" while skipping a dirty table completely. Even with the worker "cleaning" the place felt dirty. Because it was. There were a couple flys around the soda machine, and a couple more by the two booths. I chose a table in the corner. There were a couple of dead bugs (small winged, not flies) on the windowsill) it was the only table that *looked* clean. 2 restrooms...one with an out of order sign. The food was fine I guess. I don't want to think about it too hard. There was ketchup on the outside of my burger wrapper...so that was fun to get on my hands just taking it off the tray. ‍ And for the record, I do like whataburger as a chain in general, but this one was rough. Oh and on the kiosk it asked about things like ketchup and sauces.... if you're going to let me add these things to the order please actually include them instead of me having to go ask for them. Or just keep them out?
