We were just passing through and it looked interesting. It did not disappoint. There were so many choices on the menu we had difficulty deciding. Large portion and a wonderful variety. Service was fast and the train collection is fun. read more

Literally the saddest place to eat in the city, want a sandwich for 14$ with one tiny slice of meat, this is the place, want to disappoint the people your taking out to eat, with wilted vegetables and soggy sandwiches you got it ! This is it! Tried a few times everytime was awful, tried to give the benefit of a doubt. Our mistake. read more

Cafe Chris - Cafes Near Me - Pleasanton, Texas

The food is "down home" and the people that work there are very helpful and pleasant.

This is one of my favorite places to eat in Pleasanton! The food here is consistently good and no matter what I get it always seems to blow me away. The staff members are so nice and welcoming and even when the restaurant is packed, they still do their best and give you amazing service. I love the cute interior and decorations in the restaurant and the new place is just as charming as the old one! I would 100% recommend this lovely restaurant to anyone looking for tasty meals and a great time! read more

Great food and service! The chicken fried steak was very tasty! Our server was so nice. We'll be back when in the area.

the inside is nice the place is nice and the cheese soup is delicious but all the other foods are garbage if you want to come here you have to like grilled cheese I don't like them but the cheese soup is the only one I like read more

A+ all around! The food, the service, the prices! Feels like they are old friends from the time you walk in the door. Super friendly and fast service. My favorite is their club but close second is the chicken salad. There's a salad plate that comes with chicken salad, garden salad, and fruit. Hits the spot every time! read more

Great local establishment providing tasty food with a personal touch. Outstanding hamburgers and sandwiches. Deserts are really on point.

Great family business. Food is average. The hamburger was a frozen puck. Chicken and dumplings were homemade and good if you like Cumin. THE ONION RINGS ARE AMAZING! I'll be back just for them. read more

First walking it, was very cute atmosphere. Looked like it was for a older crowd but still nice. It took over awhile to receive our food and when we did they forgot the extra we had ordered. The food was okay nothing special. I ordered a soup of the day and a club sandwich. We reminded them a couple times but still didn't bring it. Took forever for a refill. I don't think I'll come again. read more

The food is always consistently good and so is the service. This place has been in Pleasanton a long time with a full menu of great food. The waitresses are nice, friendly, and do a great job. read more

Love the owners and the food! Aways fresh and delicious. Great service and such a friendly place.

I've eaten at cafe Chris in the past, and it's been pretty good. However, this time, I ordered a Cobb salad with no tomatoes. This is what I was given for $11.50. I'm very disappointed in the quality of everyt read more

Cafe Chris - My $11.50 Cobb salad. So sad. - Cafes Near Me - Pleasanton, Texas

Great patty melts Salads burgers, fried chicken and chicken fried steaks. Specials. Also great service. Highly recommend. read more

Kraft Mac & cheese people. And not only that, but dried out leftover craft Mac & cheese. I don't know how you can legitimately own a restaurant and think that it's a good idea to serve what they put on my plate. Not to mention the frozen dinner quality of the meatloaf I had to choke down. But hey the toast was good. I've been there before and been pleased with the chicken fajita tacos. But don't ever, and I mean EVER get the meatloaf w/ Mac and cheese. Unless you want to end up on the toilet with a rotten gut like I am RIGHT NOW. read more

Good customer service. I have been there a couple of times with family, and every time I have been disappointed with their food. This past visit, I was told the hamburger was homenade and it tasted and looked like a frozen patty. I'm done eating there. read more

Cafe Chris is great! We walked in at 7:25p not realizing they had modified their hours due to COVID; closing today was 7:30p. As my husband and I discussed leaving after we saw their closing time on the menu, a nice woman over heard us and walked up, greeted us nicely, assured us that we need not rush, and encouraged us to enjoy our dinner. Then, our service was fantastic. The chicken fried steak was huge and delicious. The catfish was cooked perfectly. AND, the tea and lemonade were delicious! As we headed out the owner stopped by to say hello and all involved were just so nice. We will definitely return. Thanks Cafe Chris team!! read more

Cafe Chris is a staple in this town. It's been around for a very long time. It's family owned and operated. Everything on the menu is exceptional including the desserts. Whether you're in the mood for traditional cafe food such as sandwiches and soup or a Texas style chicken fried steak, this place has it all. If you're coming through Pleasanton, make it a point to stop by. read more

Went to eat at yummys across from this place but it was closed. Decided to check this out. So glad we did!! Women were running this place like a perfect storm! Every single one hustling and giving amazing service! So friendly. Then we got our food. Oh my goodness!!! Amazing!! Fish burger tastes like it's straight from one of the restaurants on the beach! Chicken fried steak could of fed a whole family! My husband said it was so good and he's had a lot of chicken fried steak. We will return for sure! read more

I love the food and the folks that work there. I recently purchased a gift from their selection and the recipient just loves it. If you are in Pleasanton, this is a great place to eat and enjoy the atmosphere. Quite a train collection. read more

I wasn't planing to eat lunch here but our other location appear to be closed. Parking lot was packed as was the restaurant, looking good so far as crowded restaurants usually have great food. Ordered a huge chicken fried steak and hamburger steak with baked potato. Real plates metal utensils paper napkins a bit crowded inside of staples are close together to fit in more customers of which they had plenty. Service was good especially as busy as they were, had almost every table filled. Food was very good, Home style cooking, comfort food. Cost for both meals was right at $20. I would recommend as a pretty outstanding place in the small town of Pleasanton to grab lunch. read more

This place is always busy and there is a good reason for that. Great staff and great food! The chicken salad is always a winner. Try the Chicken fried steak, or strips or sandwich and you will not be disappointed. It is HUGE--sandwich is served on Texas toast and hangs out enough that it could make 2 sandwiches. Chopped steak is always good, too. Love their fries. They have a drive-thru, but for those of us on a time schedule, please phone ahead for your order, don't do it in line! read more

My family and I have been coming here for a couple of years and we love it! The staff are really attentive and friendly, and the food is great!!! They have a soup of the day- every one that I have tried has been amazing. While they have a wide range of healthy options they also have fried and heavier food as well. read more

The owner and her granddaughter is VERY,VERY RUDE.And the food they serve us overpriced.Better places to dine in a much better atmosphere. Plus ,you will leave Cafe Chris smelling like a DEEP FRYER read more

Its .. . . Good. The food is in large portions and the service is kind and friendly. It gives you a feeling of ... .. hm home. This place is always clean and well attended to.

Cafe Chris - Butterfinger Pie.... - Cafes Near Me - Pleasanton, Texas

Chicken Fajita tacos were amazing. Chicken was moist and juicy. Not dry and seasoned to perfection! Tomatoes were not mushy and lettuce was fresh! Will definitely be back when I'm in town working. read more

I came into this cafe after reading about it here on Yelp. The only reason this review isn't a 4 star review is because of the Tuna Salad- I'll elaborate in a bit. The service was excellent. Immediately as I entered, I was greeted with a loud welcome from the check out counter. That welcome, plus the decoration and the abundance of locals, made this place feel less like a cafe in a strip center and more like a home-y cafe. I placed an order to go so that I could get back to my work in the hotel room. I ordered a Cobb salad with a scoop of Tuna Salad. The length of time between order and getting my food in hand was minimal, and it came with the same level of service. Definitely come here if you want fast service with a smile. (Now the only negative) The tuna salad is the only downside. It is basically just tuna mixed with a crap load of (too much) mayo. No veggies, no visible seasoning, no additional flavors... It was really disappointing since that was what I was really craving and I was trying to avoid the "Mayo Salad" of places like Subway. I figured that a homestyle cafe would have homestyle tuna- one with flavor and a presence of veggies like celery, carrots, and pickles. Something. I'm sure by the crowd that this cafe can make a mean plate of comfort food, but if you're coming here for their tuna, then you'd be just as good with going to a fast food deli chain for a bit cheaper price. read more

I give Cafe Chris 5 stars for their consistently great food at great prices. The restaurant is super friendly to everyone who walks in the door. While it is always packed, service is fast without the fast food taste. This is American comfort food freshly done with light or oversized versions to fit every appetite. Chicken fried steak, fried fish plates, chalupas, salads, sandwiches and the best daily specials such as chicken fried chicken with homemade gravy, fresh fruit or fries plus wonderful homemade desserts, pies and cakes are just a few of their huge menu items. Eat there today. This family owned business also supports great local causes that make our community a great place to live, work and play. read more

There are a lot of choices on this Cafe's menu, but in general they are fresh and filling choices. I ordered a sandwich and my lunch partner had the chicken salad, both of which were good. It's very busy at lunch though and our food took awhile, though the service was very friendly. I'll be back to try other things when I'm in town again! Anywhere that has great healthy menu options stays on my list. Originally I gave his restaurant 3 stars, but realized that as far as choices go in Pleasanton - well, there aren't many. So I'm changing my rating to 4 stars since this is one I would recommend if you're in town and hungry. Rating system: 5 stars = I'll drive across town specifically for this, and rave to all my friends about it! 4 stars = Would recommend visiting. 3 stars = Average, acceptable, positive. 2 stars = You might be able to drag me here. 1 star = I will not be returning. read more

Food was ok, menu was a little bland. Service was good. The salad was literally lettuce and tomato on a plate, use a bowl for salads!!! Prices were fair, but nothing Id drive to. It was a common meeting ground for myself and my parents. read more

Excellent food and nice and friendly waitresses!

Good food. Courteous, fast service. Cute cafe atmosphere. The chicken salad stuffed tomato was very good! The chicken fajitas were also good. Will definitely be back when in the area read more

See all

Salad was not bad! Chicken fried steak LOOKED like it was going to taste good. But once u tasted it, it had no flavor. Lots of tasteless breading and little tasteless meat. Meat was tender at least. Not dry or tuff. Just no flavor. Gravy was good! That's how I got thru the no flavor. Bake potato seem like it was on that border off being there to long. Tea was sweat and I like that it's served in a to go cup. Service was good. To bad the food lack flavor. read more

Stopped here on our way to corpus. Great food, fast and clean! The service was friendly. It's a wonderful place to eat. Thank u!

I LOVE this place! I eat here multiple times a week, the staff is amazing and the food is awesome! If you're looking for food that isn't like you're eating at a fast food joint, or typical restaurant this is your place! The food tastes like you whipped it up in the kitchen at home, you can't go wrong with a home cooked meal from here! Croissant Chicken Salad Sandwich, and Club Sandwich are great! read more
