Blue mound cafe was a delightful taste sensation. I got the mini blue mound shuffle and it was really good, the hash browns went really good with the eggs.The servise was great fast serving took only about 10-15 minutes but the wait is worth it.The lights were a nice touch and all of the pretty signs and the fancy curtains after all we had a good time. read more

Food...I haven't had anything I didn't like. Chicken fried chicken/steak is a classic and you can't go wrong there. They have some of the best scrambled eggs. The cinnamon roll French toast is amazing! Service...the wait staff is always friendly. The ones that are always there get to know you and you become their regulars. Ambiance...I love how they have done the lighting. The decor is super cute. Cows and farm animals as decor and I love it. read more

Horrible! Absolutely horrible service. Dustin and Craig have their work cut out for them here! Manager super rude! Restaurant closes at 3:00...something we learned today and apparently all their locations closes at 3:00 on the weekends. We arrived at 2:55 and was seated not knowing the kitchen closed at 3:00. Took forever to get a waitress. When arrived 1st thing she said was "got to hurry kitchen is closed". What? We opted to leave and spoke to the mgr on the way out the door. Manage had that eye rolling ride quality....super defensive because we didn't know they closed at 3:00 on the weekends...and she was the first to greet us when we arrived. This restaurant is literally right now road from my home and while I've been a huge fan I won't ever come back to this location. read more

I would like some gluten free options if I'm being honest It's becoming too common now for people requesting gluten free choices. I know it can be annoying to some, but it does suck for those who have an intolerance or celiac's Food: forgot the name of the skillet I got, but it was good. A typical breakfast skillet lol Prices: another $20 or less, per person, after drink. Coffee was okay. When you've ate at one local breakfast spot, then you've ate at all of them. They all get their ingredients from the same suppliers lol Environment: very big, lot of space. Will fit a lot of people! Service: waitress was nice. I tend to not get the best of service since I'm always by myself when I go eat lol it's becoming a trend everywhere I go. read more

Blue Mound Cafe - Cafes Near Me - Decatur, Texas

I had a "baby sprinkle" with a few girlfriends for dinner and we had been told the new Cafe was a great place to meet up! I wanted breakfast for dinner, so my order was the Berry Delight. It boasts of fresh strawberries and maybe there are fresh strawberries, but the syrup that they are in is definitely not homemade (as a heads up). I am not complaining, just have to be careful with sugar intake so I had to push some of the syrup off my French toast. Service was alright, our waitress was not rude or anything. We could sense she was ready to hurry up and be done with us or was in the middle of something else. That's okay, food arrived hot and all at the same time which was awesome! The owner came over to our table and congratulated me, that was super sweet. Oh, there is a food of the day posted on the wall in case you were wondering. I would like to come back and try the chicken fried chicken, more of that delicious cornbread and some sweet tea with my family, hopefully very soon! read more

Blue Mound Cafe - Berry delight - Cafes Near Me - Decatur, Texas

This is the newest local greasy spoon in town, and it honestly started off strong -- which makes the recent slide even more disappointing. The chicken fried steak, which has been heavily promoted, came out gummy and not crispy at all. These are pre-seasoned and pre-breaded and just need to go in the fryer, so something clearly went wrong. The hashbrowns were soft and undercooked, bordering on raw. The mac and cheese somehow tasted like fish water, which was... concerning. The soft scrambled eggs were completely overcooked, and the breakfast bowl was filled with what felt like the grisly, chewy leftovers of other meats. We ended up leaving over 80% of the food untouched, which says everything. On the way out, someone at the front told my wife, "Well, you should have come and told us." But at some point, it's not the customer's job to manage quality control. When that many items miss the mark, it's a kitchen problem, not a communication problem. There's potential here, but right now it feels like it's going in the wrong direction. 2 Stars, but I hope they turn it around! read more

Top notch customer service. Everything made to order. Ordered the breakfast combo. The ambiance and decor are welcoming and attractive. The music is good. And I like that an AC isn't blowing directly on me and yet the room has an acceptable temperature to it. The booths and tables aren't affixed to the floor which is a huge plus because I'm a large guy and that allowed me to enjoy a bench for a change. You will have to use the table salt which is a good thing as that prevents over-salting. There enough food in what I ordered to get two people. Very good deal. read more

I was excited to try the new location. Our waitress was friendly. Our food arrived lukewarm and my chicken fried chicken was VERY salty. Overall the were dishes were good (but not great) and seemed to be made from scratch. The desserts in the case all looked delicious (and very large portions)! My friend ordered a peach cobbler to go but when she opened it, it looked like it had been the last bit in the pan. Hardly anything there and like it had been sitting for a good while. If it was the last of the batch, she should have been warned and not charged full price. I will try this place again in a few weeks and hopefully it will be better. read more

Been about four times now! Prices are really fair for the amount of food they serve! I fortunately discovered the pot roast. The first time I went and it instantly became a favorite unfortunately they don't serve it all the time so it's been a hit and miss for me when I go! I tried the CFS and it was pretty Good, but that Pot roast is definitely worth the trip! I find it nice inside and very clean! I had some good Servers, Travis and Grace! I believe that was her name! Both very Nice and Helpful! read more

New place with a full parking lot every time we go by so though we would try it for lunch today. Seated right away even though it was busy. Nice decor, colorful and spotless. The buzz of conversation was a good sign and then we passed by the bake counter and saw these beautiful cream pies, we bought a piece of coconut cream when we checked out. A busy server stopped and took our drink order within a minute of sitting down. They a have a large sign in the dining rooms that show daily specials, about seven of them today ranging from chicken fried steak, meat loaf, to fried chicken livers. The server took our order and my wife decided to get the chicken fried steak special and I had one of the bacon burgers. The special, for $12.99, was a huge piece of chicken fried steak with nice, crispy breading. Seasoned very well, both the meat and the breading which has a slight pepperiness to it. Mashed potatoes and a creamy gravy with roasted vegetables. She could only eat a third of it so I get some for leftovers tomorrow!! My burger was a different story. The breading which was nice, a square bun with great texture that held up to the eating process without falling apart. Vegetables were fresh and crisp, so what went wrong? No condiments at all on the burger, I had to ask for mayonnaise and there was a bottle of ketchup on the table but no mustard anywhere. The real problem was the thick, medium well hamburger patty. I could not taste any seasoning at all; no salt, pepper, butter, or anything other than the plain hamburger beef taste. It is a shame for such a well put together burger to not even have a light sprinkle of salt and pepper. I took one star for that but almost added it back for the fries. They say they are hand cut but they are thin, almost like matchstick fries. I decided not to since they are soft, with no crispiness at all. Our server was great, the pie was great, the special was great and the meatloaf special I saw at the table next to me will bring me back. read more

Food,service, and ambiance is on point at the Blue mound Cafe! Awesome options and the biscuits are delicious!! Waitresses are very kind and personable. If i were to give any suggestions it would be give a little more attention to the restrooms, not nasty but could definitely use a wipe down every hour or so. I only seen the mens restroom. My wife said women's bathroom was nice and clean. That makes sense cause i only seen women working here. read more

Blue Mound Cafe - I ate half before the picture opps, breakfast enchiladas bomb.com, this food is amazing, ihop who? - Cafes Near Me - Decatur, Texas

We ate breakfast today for the first time and it was delicious. I had an omelet and my husband had the large breakfast and pancake and he loved it all. Since our meal was so good and we were going to be busy all day we got dinner to go. Unfortunately my pea salad was left out and his chicken fried chicken was sent with no gravy. The meatloaf had a good tomato sauce on top. Be sure you check to-go orders before you leave to make sure you get everything you paid for. read more

Always really good. Chicken fried steak, ribeye, breakfast, cinnamon roll French toast ALL GREAT

It started off strong, with the pork chops being good and service good. it just didn't last long. The wing sauce was not good. Having known a couple of people that have worked here, just beware to anyone wanting to work there. The facilities and building are pretty to look at, but the hosteseses mess up seating, a couple of servers are cut throat and management is non-existent when you have an issue. p.s. hand your cash tip to your server. read more

this food is the BEST. I find myself making time to go several times a week after stumbling upon it! prices are great. staff is friendly and it's CLEAN! read more

Service was great. There were a ton of people and we only waited 10 minutes for a party of 3. The restaurant was very clean and tidy. Prices are average and fair. We had dinner. Everything was decent. No issues with the food at all. It just didn't stand out as amazing. We had the fried cheese appetizer, hometown burger, shrimp basket and the blue mound ribeye. If you like crispy crunchy fries, these might not be for you, they are home style. We will go back. I'm looking forward to try breakfast. read more

We came a few weeks ago and was semi-satisfied. Giving another shot this morning...total fail. Very disappointed. Eggs were not over medium...they were over done and rubbery. I could pick the two eggs up with two fingers intact. Gravy was consistent with grey-colored water with pepper. Sausage patties...also rubbery. I asked them to remake the eggs...yoke completely solid again. I was excited for a new place to eat breakfast in Decatur. Very disappointed that this does not satisfy. Sadly, I ate some because I was hungry. Our server offered and removed my breakfast from the ticket. Honestly, she was AWESOME...she gets 5 stars in my book. read more

Blue Mound Cafe - #2 - eggs over medium, sausage patties, hashbrowns, 1 biscuit and gravy. I like to stack my food on top of the biscuits - Cafes Near Me - Decatur, Texas

Went on a Wednesday late afternoon before the dinner rush. Menu was extensive, something for everyone. Food was hot, came out quick and everyone enjoyed what they got. Servers were friendly, restaurant was clean. We'll definitely go back. read more

Tonight we decided to put the NEW Blue Mound Cafe to the ULTIMATE TEST and we had dinner there on Opening night..... Let's just say they passed with flying colors!!! The place was VERY CLEAN and the food and service was VERY GOOD! I had the Cinnamon Roll French Toast Breakfast with bacon and Joshton had the Hamburger Steak Dinner...... It was so good that Joshton ordered a second plate!!! I also want to mention that even though the parking lot was packed, we had no problem being seated immediately and we had our food in no time! We only had two complaints: The Menu had so many wonderful options that it was hard to decide on one and we were so full that we didn't have any room for Dessert!!! Next time we'll take some to go! So, Go give them a try and welcome them to Decatur!!! read more

Food was good, but they do not use real butter which was very disappointing. The wait was ridiculously long to get in and they had several empty tables. After we ordered it still took long to get our food. Hopefully they will get that worked out. read more

This place is amazing! Always great food and great service. Plus lots of tables so you never have a long wait!

My husband and I ate here today. I had liver and onions and my husband had chicken fried steak. Both were delicious but the best part was the service! We had tha best waitress. Very attentive. Shout out goes to Jeanie. Thank you. You were great! read more

Waited over an hour for our dinner which never did showup!!! Don't open a restaurant if your not ready!! We noticed a number of people not getting their food. Our server was Travis, he was nice but no food. read more

Well we have been twice and never get seated. Today we went, got our name down, were the second in line, when a waitress came and got three people that came in a good deal after us and another couple, and sat them before us. They seated three but lost four- not good business! It may be booming right now, but keep treating the locals like that and it won't be for long. I would give zero stars but there isn't a rating for that. read more

've been to Blue Mound Cafe three times now, and I don't know if it's just me or... the front staff hangin on by a thread?.. The first time I went, 4:30/5pm.. the parking lot was very clear and the restaurant wasn't busy at all. Good. I was seated quickly and given a drink. GOOD. Buckle Up. I sat there for about 15 minutes without a thing. I watched two other tables get sat, a new hire get a tour of the restaurant, and by God had some time to look at the menu. If one of the managers walked by and visited I would of said this "honestly, I have no idea, sit down, I've been here 15 minutes and I don't know who my server is, so sit with me and we'll both find out!" There were maybe four tables in the entire restaurant, some chatter going on, so there really wasn't an obvious reason for the wait. Wildly my server was RIGHT BEHIND ME AT A TABLE , chattin' Not a bad thing, but how long did you look at me before you thought man, I should probably go introduce myself?.. When her conversation got to a point I guess to get wrapped up, she waltzed right over and guess what the first thing she asked? "Did you have enough time to look at the menu?" .. if I had a dollar for every minute I did I would of gotten my meal for free, and tipped myself for probably having enough time to make it. The menu was overwhelming, it's broken down for no reason on some categories, just say you have one sandwich and have x y z as a meat option. Easy. I flipped it ten times I feel like to just to start somewhere. It all sounds good. Don't get me wrong. I asked for some recommendations because I like hearing what employees personally enjoy. Instead, she kept saying that they sell a lot of different items and that "everything is good," which wasn't very helpful. At all. Since I wasn't ready I guess with one dish, she politely gave me more time to look at the menu. haha. Did ya land on something?! I narrowed it down to a few entrées, and I'm talking about solid heavy entrees. I listed them off. and asked out of those which one she would personally recommend, and she ended up again, saying "well I sell multiple of those a day, I'm a picky eater" LIKE WHAT KIND OF ANSWER IS THAT?! I was fed up I looked up at her and said "look I don't care what anyone orders that walks through that door, I'm not asking for their opinion I'm asking for yours" the steak, pork chops, and something else wasn't it I guess, she suggested the cheeseburger would fill me up. So That's what I ordered. The burger was good, fries need help, either heat that grease up and get them crispy or take em off the menu, they're next to soggy. Needless to say, my wait to meet my server, order, and get my food was longer than it took to finish my meal. If you hadn't gotten that part yet. Get my ticket I guess and check out up front.. okay. The rude lady with the RBF in the black apron needs to either be your BOH lead or in GU, she has zero business dealing with guests. And by god, it is very awkward when the cashier asks if you'd like to leave a tip, and if so HOW MUCH?! that's crazy work. I promise you I was there atleast an hour and twenty minutes. The second time I went, I had to stand in the waiting area while several people were checking out. I personally find it inefficient to make incoming guests wait behind people paying their bills, especially when there were open tables visible in the dining room. Again the same manager (wearing the black apron) came across as very unfriendly, reassuring my original opinion. and didn't seem particularly welcoming. I was told "we'll be right with you," but again there didn't appear to be a clear reason for the delay. Would have probably been easier to just say find a seat?.. waited.. and waited. and I just walked out. wasn't gonna dive into it on a bad note again.. My most recent visit was last night. I arrived about an hour and twenty minutes before closing. As I walked up, I could see there was plenty of space inside the restaurant. However, when I got to the host stand, I was told there was a wait--even though I was dining alone which isn't the point but there was literally no one in the "waiting area" on the porch or standing in the parking lot?.. It honestly gave the impression that they just didn't want to seat anyone else that late in the evening. If the restaurant doesn't want to serve guests after a certain time, it would probably make more sense to close earlier. The restaurant itself is actually very nice inside and well decorated, and it has the potential to be a great spot in Decatur. I'm sure the food is great but I haven't ever been given the slight chance to get past the cheeseburger. Unfortunately, the service and overall guest experience have been consistently disappointing for me. After three visits, I don't think I'll be returning. And please be advised. I've been a server, bartender, a Mid Shift Lead, and A FOH trainer.. this place needs a thorough lesson in service. read more
