Ok, the other diners were packed and the Branson Cafe had no one outside waiting so I yelped it and saw that most of the bad reviews were due to no social distancing or masks. This doesn't bother our group so we decided to give it a try. They also had a sign outside that said Today's Special- Meatloaf and homemade mashed potatoes with 1 side and roll- $7.99! All 4 of us love meatloaf so that's what we got. 3 of us with green beans and one of us with corn. The rolls were warm and delicious- also homemade. We all enjoyed our meals and are significantly stuffed! We saw them cutting the pies and putting the slices in the cooler. They were HUGE slices. The service was on par with the food- excellent! read more

I went to the cafe around 12 pm and was surprised it wasn't very busy. I had biscuits and gravy which were very tasty. Service was very good,the waitress checked with me several times, and provided me with coffee refills. Food was one inexpensive. The place was pretty full by the time I left. read more

Branson Café is quick, hot, and great food! As a local I say please try this at least once because it is home cooked and awesome!

Me and my sister came here after our long roadtrip. We immediately got a table even though it was busy. Within 5 minutes of sitting down we got our order taken, and got our food. The food was amazing and I would definitely come again when in town. read more

Blueberry pancakes were HUGE and delicious Me-Ma's meatloaf was great. If I ordered this again I would hold the bbq sauce and smother in brown gravy. Either way is still great! read more

We were seated very quickly & our waitress was sweet. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the chicken fried chicken with okra & mashed potatoes. I didn't care for the roll but it didn't take away from the meal. The place is small but it was clean. I would recommend this place for anyone visiting the city. read more

Came in on a Thursday morning and were immediately greeted, seated, and offered drinks. Their cinnamon rolls are beautiful, huge, and delicious. Biscuits and gravy, eggs, sausage were all delicious too. Highly recommend this restaurant est in 1910!! A great piece of history. read more

Great breakfast. Good staff. We started to go to the farmhouse but it was a 25 min wait which is ridiculous for breakfast. Glad we went across the street. Didnt disappoint. Great place read more

Awesome! It is better than even the best reviews. Don't let a couple people having a bad stop you from trying this place. It was packed (4th of July) , but we were still seated quickly. The service is prompt which helps turn the tables, but they definitely don't rush you. Manage your expectations it is a very popular place located in a tourist destination....it's unrealistic to not expect a wait. The food is delicious and the portions are substantial. Don't forget to grab a fresh baked dessert. Thanks Leigha for the great service. read more

I would completely recommend if you are visiting Branson. Their food was absolutely amazing the atmosphere in that cafe was incredible. The servers were so nice and caring and were so nice towards my brother. If you're looking for a place to get breakfast at go to Brandon cafe. read more

WE JUST WALKED OUT!! 1:00pm 3 tables ON A SATURDAY! We sat here for 15 minutes, 3 servers walked past a couple of times, didn't greet us or say we'll be right with you, nothing. I saw them rolling silverware and filling condiments......We will never go back! We came across street to Farmhouse, they have fast & friendly service every time! && always great food!! read more

Well, this was quite disappointing. Upon arrival, we waited a couple minutes and were seated. The restaurant was half empty during what should've been the end of breakfast rush. I should've taken that as a sign. It took almost a solid 10 minutes to be given a menu and for our waitress to acknowledge us. A table was seated behind us and got their drinks before we even got menus. Our waitress finally came over with menus and took our drink order. No apology for the wait or anything. They have no flavored coffee creamer, nor flavored coffee. Ok, not super surprising in this area, but still a little disappointing. I order a double cheeseburger well-done with fries and a side of ranch. My food comes out and the meat on the burger is extremely bland. It also tastes like it was put on the cook top before it was hot, so the meat just soaked up all the grease. The only flavor of my burger was that of grease. Not to mention the fact that only one patty was partially cooked well-done. The rest was pink. My husband brought that to the attention of the waitress when I was in the restroom. She said- oh sorry about that- and didn't take it off the ticket or anything. My son's chicken strips also tasted grease soaked, so he didn't eat them at all. They sure did charge us full price for everything though. And the restrooms... you have to walk thru the entire kitchen to use the single restroom. It's a little weird, but the kitchen looked clean from what I saw. Overall, it was a bad experience and we won't be back. We come to Branson several times a year and this place definitely doesn't make the cut. read more

Service is just amazing the waiters are helpful and nice. The food is good not over whelming it's light just not heavy. It's like an old time dinner. read more

If you want breakfast, order before 11! They stop seeking Pancake, grits, and french toast after 11AM and we weren't told at the door. We weren't told until after we already been seated and we waited about 20 mins! The location is a small hole in the wall diner, right in the middle of The Landing strip/town. I'm giving it a 3 star because of the no certain breakfast items after 11AM and food was okay, it wasn't the worse I've had!. Their service was great and the price is fair. Food didn't sound good nor look super appetizing but it wasn't bad! We had a party of 10 and the kitchen was running behind, we got seated at 11:30am and our food came out about 12:20pm. The chicken and waffles was okay flavor wise. They down the chicken and waffles in a syrup so it is very sweet. The waffle looks like it's pre-packaged. It looks exactly like this Belgian waffle I buy at home for the kids. Chicken was a bit dry as well. The omelette a was confusing, I thought I could order a veggie omelette and add sausage but I had to pick 3 veggies instead, so essentially I just created my own omelette I guess? The omelette didn't look appetizing but it wasn't too bad. The cheese just got thrown on there, it wasn't evenly spread out, just a blob on top. The chicken fried steak was the smallest chicken fried steak I've even seen in my life! But it was okay as well. Definitely way better than the last place I had it at! The mash was instant mash. The cold cut triple decker sandwich wasn't bad, then again, you can't really mess up a sandwich! read more

This place has been in Branson forever. They maintain the old time diner feel. Service was prompt and the food was very good. The chicken fry was fork tender and well seasoned. My wife's ham was a little on the dry side but had good flavor. A staple of downtown Branson that Will likely be around for many more years read more

Kristina was out waitress. The warm friendly smile started us off great with a " Sit where ya like I will be rite with you". I ordered her suggestion the skillet with sausage and fried eggs. PERFECT, and I'm a foodie! The perfect cool temp in the house made our sit and chill amazing it's muggy today but not in there! BEST COFFEE IVE HAD IN A DINER EVER!!! read more

Fantastic local Cafe! Actually tasted homemade, and was cozy as hell. Lovely Mom and Pop place.

I lucked out and visited on Tuesday, their ham & beans with fried potatoes day. All I can say is this will become a regular stop for me on Tuesdays. I can't recall having a better tasting bowl of ham & beans anywhere, including my own! Daily specials $7.99 Mon - chicken & dumplings, mashed potatoes Tues - ham & beans, fried potatoes, cornbread Wed - meatloaf, mashed potatoes, veg, roll Thurs - pot roast Fri - spaghetti They have fried chicken, every day & another guest said it's the best in Branson. We'll definitely have to try it. Oh... I almost forgot to mention dessert! They usually have coconut cream & chocolate cream, plus a coconut they call Magnolia (similar to pecan, but with coconut instead of pecans). They also have cobblers. Plus, they serve breakfast all day! I'm sure the Branson Cafe will become one of my favorites in the area! read more

Why this place doesn't have five stars, I don't know. Maybe some bad reviews from other diner owners trying to grab business. THE BEST HOMEMADE BISCUITS I HAVE ever had. That's crazy for me to say, but true. I had the Branson Skillet with the gravy on the side. Eggs, perfect. Sausage, nearly perfect, Biscuits, AMAZING. Don't pass this place up. This was my father's and grandfather's favorite breakfast spot in Branson. read more

Saturday Lunch - my soup and salad were really sad. Potato soup was reheated and had a strange aftertaste. The salad had on the edge iceberg lettuce. Should have sent my food back but we had limited time due to street parking My husband had the pork tenderloin sandwich, it was OK. His side was a baked potato which was cold and had been sitting in the back kitchen for a while. We just arrived in Branson for a first visit....certainly hope other restaurants aren't just slopping the hogs like this one read more

Great food! Service is great and staff is very friendly. You may have a wait but there are stores next to it to kill the short wait time. Love this place read more

What a great breakfast! The restaurant was packed but ran so efficiently we only waited 5-10 minutes for a table. Service was great and we had omelets and everything was fantastic. Highly recommend. read more

Visited the Branson Cafe today with my family, and most of us ordered the Mema's Broasted Chicken entree. This is the best fried chicken we've ever had, with thin, crispy skin, and hot, juicy, tender meat! We also tried a cinnamon roll, which is not only massive, but also was delicious! It's been more than a decade since we'd been here, since we live out of state, and the food was as good as we remembered. Our server was great, and the atmosphere has a lot of charm as a historic Branson eatery! We learned this restaurant is owned by three women, and one of the owners, Sandra, took time to chat with us about the history of the restaurant and some of Branson's history in general. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for delicious homestyle food when visiting Branson. read more

This is the Place to go for breakfast close to the landing. I had the breakfast skillet and the wife had an egg with hash browns. To start off our server was top notch. She took care of everyone and makes it look effortless. She makes you fill like you are at home at grandmas. She isn't very old but she has lots of Love for her job. As for the food WOW incredible doesn't quite cover it. Me and the Wife was So happy with our experience A+ place a much stop while you are in Branson. read more

Quaint place with a home vibe. Very friendly staff and great food! Fair prices as well.

Found this breakfast place via Yelp! and were not disappointed... definitely busy, but worth the wait. They turn tables quickly so don't let a wait discourage you. read more

Very basic food. Biscuits and gravy come out cold. Drinks had basic flavor and minimal alcohol.

The food was ok. The service was outstanding. The ambiance was good. The lighting and all the pictures were ok.

Service was great, even with a packed house. Jordin was an amazing waitress. Food was fresh and delicious. Even my over medium eggs came out perfect. The open kitchen is clean and efficient. We didn't have a reservation, but it was well worth the 30-minute wait on Labor Day Weekend. Thanks so much! read more

The best chicken and waffles I have ever had! The egg cook here is excellent and came out perfectly. The biscuits and gravy were the best we had in MO. Highly recommend! read more

Fantastic home cooked food. We visit every year we're in Branson and are never disappointed.

I had high hopes for this place. It is a cozy little cafe with solid service and they got the food out quickly. Prices were ok. My pancakes were massive first of all, and they were burned on the bottom, while uncooked in the middle. My sausage was also burned and dry. The cinnamon rolls and French toast here are very good though, I would recommend those, as well as the breakfast skillet. read more

Not great! Meatloaf wasn't very tasty, very old I think! My husband had breakfast, also could have been better!

Great service! Pancake was huge. Only ate half. Was a great place for breakfast! Will definitely go back again!

Friendly and fast service at this downtown diner. We are thankful the owners are people of faith. read more
