Another great meal! This time I got CHICKEN FRIED STEAK BREAKFAST with potatoes & biscuits and gravy. Had 2.5 meals off this plate. Sooooo much food. Biscuit was great too! Ordered a cinnamon roll to go as soon as we sat down and were lucky to get one per our waitress - they were almost out by 1015am. Place is busy. Staff are hustling. Love the cookie to take home at the end. Had it for an afternoon snack. A gentleman paid for our food. It was such a blessing & treat. A great way to start the week! read more

This place is super cute on the inside. You could spend an hour just looking at the walls to see all the different things. I have had a version of the trash breakfast when I was visiting Joplin, Missouri. This version was descriptively better. The gravy was not congealed like it was in Missouri. It was nice and light and flowed over everything. The eggs were cooked to perfection. Overall, this was a 10 out of 10. Wife enjoyed her chicken and waffles. The chicken was very juicy fresh, and appeared to have been battered here did not come frozen in a bag. Our waitress Alma was super kind and got our order perfectly. She was friendly all throughout our visit. read more

I've been meaning to try this place and I'm so glad I finally did! The ambiance is beyond incredible, so retro, you walk in and you're immediately greeted by I Love Lucy playing on the tv and a bunch of merchandise! Not to mention cinnamon rolls bigger than my head. (I'm really not exaggerating) I got the French toast combo and it was delicious! The service was the perfect blend of southern hospitality and overall speed on getting the food out in a timely manner despite their busy atmosphere. This is Gona be our new breakfast place! I can't recommend enough! read more

Excellent food and vibe with everyone being super friendly. Doesn't hit the wallet really hard either for a good bite.

Ambiance is unbelievable with wall to wall nostalgia all around ! Excellent service and good food

We enjoyed the food & the service! You can have a nice conversation while eating! Love the fried green tomatoes!

We came for the GIANT cinnamon roll! And it did not disappoint! It is the size of an entire large to go box and is only served Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Ok, first off this place has been around for over 30 years and looks like it's run by a really sweet couple who has an extensive classic memorabilia collection! Each dining room has a different theme - I Love Lucy, Cola Cola, Hollywood, and another one but can't remember what it was. This place is like taking a step back in time - to the best of old times! The owner was awesome and all the staff were friendly and smiling. Everyone that came in (while we were there) were treated like family. Although we didn't have an actual meal, we left with a great first impression and can't wait to come back and try their food. What a gem! read more

Pretty good home cooking joint with large portions and good prices. Old school decor. Good service.

Service and food were amazing. Loved all the decor in the place. My only issue would be the check came without being totaled and then an item was forgotten to be put on the bill. The cinnamon roll was MASSIVE and could probably feed 8 people. read more

We had a group of 11 people, six adults, four children and a baby. They got us set up very quickly, which was a blessing when you're waiting with a bunch of kids lol. We went two days in a row. The first lady that waited on us was amazing to was always there to fill our coffee cups back up to make sure we had creamer and honey and butter and extra napkins. We were very well taken care of. It was a nice atmosphere too. The kids all loved their food, which was great. read more

Great food and service. Family owned and ran. Huge portions for great prices. It's like walking into a Time Machine with all of their decor. I will absolutely be back when I'm in town. read more

My sister used to live in Haltom City. I believe her boyfriend used to love coming here. Every time, I passed by this place it was packed! My friend, Lisa took me to Church and wanted to come eat here. I was all for it, since I've been wanting to come here for years now. I'm so glad I did. It was a five-star experience! I noticed a few things. The parking lot has dimmed parking spaces. The outside of the restaurant has Bluebonnets on the windows. It was super crowded as we walked in. There was a line to pay at the register. The people were courteous and left a space so you can walk by. We were greeted right away. A young girl seated us to our table quickly. We had a friendly waitress that was very personal. She was decked out in St Patty's gear. She mentioned her Shamrock earrings were for sale with the Cashier. I noticed they were $4.00. I decided to get a bowl of Chili and some cornbread. It was only 7.50. My cornbread was soft, fluffy and a good serving portion. My bowl of Chili was really good it didn't taste like it was out of a can. It was a good size too. Our kind waitress brought out free Chocolate Chip Cookies. They weren't round they were square They were warm, crunchy with a hint of butter. I enjoy looking at all the vintage decor. They have a lot of decor of I Love Lucy, Rod Stewart and The Wizard of Oz just to name a few. If you're ever in Haltom City I would definitely recommend this Cafe. It's a sight to see with great food and great service! read more

The decorations make this place unique and fun. The staff is friendly and appear to know their regulars well (I observed them conversing and laughing). Can't beat the food for a decent price too. FYI, as of February 2025, they are charging 50 cents extra per egg on each meal due to the egg shortage. Even with that, it's still cheaper than some other breakfast spots. These two meals with one coffee was less than $30 before tip. read more

Food is top notch, only issue I had is when paying for the bill,the cashier asked if I was going to leave a tip we have 15, 18, and 20%. sure how much is the bill, I had to take it from her just to see the total, I told her make it even amount, she proceeds to very loudly say "Is that all"??!!!!, you know our servers only make $2.00 an hr, people at Sonic make more Needless to say I WAS EMBARRASSED, IF this was the first time this has happened at This location, I would blow it off BUT IT'S THE THIRD!!!!!! THREE STRIKES AND YOUR OUT!!!, SO I HOPE MY 15% TIP WAS ENOUGH BECAUSE IM NOT GOING BACK TOO BAD BECAUSE I REALLY LIKED THE FOOD BUT NOT THE BROW BEATING AND BEING YELLED At. I CAN DO WITHOUT So if you like spending $40.00 and being made to feel cheap. THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU. read more

This place is so cute. I love that it has a mom and pop feel with all the collectibles and decor. My hubby loves coca cola things so he thought it was awesome and the food and service was great. I had the breakfast trash looks messy but tastes great. My hubby had the patty melt with a side of chili, he said both were some of the best his tasted in a long time. Super reasonably priced and wasn't super busy on a Sunday just after lunchtime. We will definitely be back. read more

Went there today service the waitress didn't was talking about they do you think the food cheap but when you go to add a little like extra jalapeños or extra onions or even extra cheese, which wasn't really extra cheese they for everything you get and also the owner was very rude to my wife when you try to say that normal places don't charge cheese like that because wait wait what we consider a reasonable amount of cheese apparently consider extra cheese and that's not how you do business I would not ever recommend them again. The food mediocre in the service sucks. And a treat of veterans like shit. read more

What a cool little restaurant in an area you'd least expect it. I had a patty melt with a side of chili. Both were outstanding and I will be back to try again. The workers were all pleasant and the restaurant was clean. The blackberry cobbler was superb. read more

The scenery was awesome. The breakfast is amazing I got the chicken fried steak with 2 eggs and was overall so good. My boyfriend on the other hand got the cheeseburger he said the patty was dry and the cheese wasn't there. The fries tasted pretty greasy and bland. We loved the breakfast and would go there again for it but just not the lunch. The service was good and we got the food pretty fast. read more

All was delicious and priced right. Take the family for this fun and delightful find. Upon walking in you say, YES this is the place we were looking for. Food plentiful and delicious.

I feel like a failure. How have I NEVER been to this adorable cafe!!?!?! We arrived around 0900 on a Friday. Pulling into the parking lot there were probably more than a dozen cars in the lot that seemed to be for Bluebonnet. By the time we left, the place was PACKED!!!! Clearly a joint we have been missing out on!!!! So many people knew others. The waitstaff greeted customers like family. Guests hugged other guests on the way out. It for sure felt like, "When you're here, you're family!! " The vibe is killer. Each room has a different themes. We sat in the Coca Cola Room. It was quite the treat because the wife and I have collected Coke memorabilia for decades. Neat to see stuff we never had, and spot things we own! The staff and the owner are so sweet and kind! They restaurant is close Monday-Wednesday, which is great information to have!!! Lots of the staff have been working there for YEARS!!!! That really tells you something about the owners and management! Also....they do an INCREDIBLE job at keeping the place dust free! Typically when a restaurant has loads of wall decorations, they get looked over. Dust and cobwebs accumulate. You won't see that at Bluebonnet Cafe! The wife got her standard chicken friend steak breakfast. I order the pork chop breakfast. My only complaint and it's minor, it the pork chop is very thin. I would definitely pay extra for a thicker cut. Wonderful flavor though! The biscuits are MASSIVE!!!! My grandmas biscuits were never that size! Lol WE WILL BE BACK!!! And hopefully very soon!! Dawn was our wonderful and sweet server! read more

Bluebonnet Cafe - Homemade biscuit - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Haltom City, Texas

I've been here many times and enjoy both the food and service. The deduction of stars is because of the pricing for kids. This is the second time I've taken my grandkids and we didn't receive a kids menu and didn't need one as they only wanted a pancake. One pancake $6, whipped cream, $1.25, Childs sized tea $3.25, total $10.50 for a meal for a 4 year old . Last time they even charged $3 for 2 strawberries. I had forgotten about the nickel and diming. I won't be back. read more

Fun atmosphere and friendly staff. Service was fast. So many things on the menu, and daily lunch specials. Food was typical diner flair and tasty. read more

I'm TOTALLY unfamiliar with the area, so I let Yelp be my guide when I was looking for a quick breakfast. The first 4 reviews in my feed were all 5 star and raves about everything. My mileage varied. First, it's located in an old strip center- not that there is anything wrong with that! And the area seems to be very Hispanic- not that there is anything wrong with that either! Then you walk in and your hit with the I Love Lucy theme. Like every square inch has something pertaining to that show. Well, that's kinda cool and very unique. I not the other dining rooms were 50's nostalgia as well, and had old TV shows playing on the TVs. It took a minute to get anyone's attention to be seated, as it seemed they were just opening. It was a tic after 8am. Regardless, the service was fine after that. On to the food. I ordered the Bluebonnet Special- three eggs any style, hash browns or grits, toast or biscuit and gravy, hot breakfast sausage or bacon. I went with soft scrambled and they were perfect. I also went with hash browns scattered and crispy. Also cooked perfectly but musta used old oil as they were very greasy and tasted that way too. The biscuit was nice and fluffy but the gravy was bland and a bit runny. Then there was the sausage. Not very spicy, and a funky flavor. Bad enough I didn't eat the second patty. Coffee was hot and I like they have real half and half. Sometimes the planets just don't align. This might have been an off day for the cook? I would be willing to try again if I'm in the neighborhood. read more

Bluebonnet Cafe - Nice old Frigidaire. the front dining room is a shrine to the "I Love Lucy" TV show. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Haltom City, Texas

I absolutely love this place! I've been here several times over the last two years. We live in haltom and I love supporting local places, as Haltom gets a bit of a bad wrap. First off the character of this place is unsurpassed. There's 3 main rooms: one is decked in I love Lucy memorabilia, another in classic Coca Cola, and the third in old farmhouse. So charming and unique. The waitresses still use old paper waiting checks which is so cool. The food is great! Typical diner food. The large buns they do on the weekends are worth the trip alone. My dad is in his 70s and he loves this place, definitely a nod to the past. I'm not sure this place has changed in decades! read more

Atmosphere is so homey. Look like a bunch of pictures on the wall as if you were at Aunt Bee's house. So so homey. The thing I like about Bluebonnet Cafe is you can order a very small breakfast and it is inexpensive too. I always get the egg, sausage, and toast which is plenty and GOOD. Let's not discuss that cinnamon roll which is as big as my head. Delish. The service is very quick, and the host/ cashier is so pleasant. It feels so good when you are treated like they are happy you chose their place of business to eat. read more

0 out of 10, wouldn't recommend. No idea what the hype was all about. I had been looking forward to trying this place because of the reviews. Now i'm left wondering how much marketing money they spend on the good reviews. We ordered a breakfast chicken fried steak, lunch chicken fried steak and a pancake kids meal. Everything arrived at the table cold. Let's start with the sides. The "ranch" potatoes and french fries were greasy and had NO seasoning, not even salt. The fried okra was wet with grease and no seasoning. The scrambled eggs could not be real with how fake and rubbery they were, and surprise..no flavor. The biscuits we did not even get a chance to try but the 2.50 for side gravy was also..bland. The pancakes were thin and very similar to the freezer ones that you heat up in the microwave. I've save the best for last...the flavorless chicken fried "steak". It was more of a mystery meat that had uncooked pink polkadots. (Not even sure how you get that inconsistency in cooking meat.) "It"must have been dipped in wet flour and fried in old grease. We had a taste of our sides and only took one bite of the CFS's and decided that we were not going to continue to eat the food that was served. We politely (kinda even embarrassed) told the server about how the food was not edible and she acted shocked but a bit annoyed. We got referred to the cashier, who was also the owner. She was not very receptive, I explained the situation and she looked at us like we were crazy, and said that's impossible because nobody ever complains about the food. (The reviews here say otherwise, but let's continue.) She asked what we had ate some of and began to add up the à la cart pricing for EACH item. At the end, we got charged with what we could manage to eat. A slice of bacon, an egg, a small salad and a coffee. We were charged 21 dollars and no apology. Yes, the I Love Lucy collection was worth a few pictures but that was it. read more
