The service was great! The breakfast was delicious! Sharon and Mary were excellent with fantastic personalities!

Had the Cardinal Hasbrowns, and they were delicious. I'm a big eater, but didn't finish it. Service was friendly and helpful. Not the quickest place, but worth the wait read more

Cardinal Cafe - Cardinal Hasbrowns - New American Near Me - Camden, Arkansas

Great customer service! The breakfast is good here! How often does the community visit? When is the cleanest?

Love this place ! We had a flight to catch in Little Rock and weren't sure if it was a slow country type place or a quick restaurant so we asked and the lady was so nice and said she would get us in and out & she did ! Not only were they all nice but the food was really good. My husband and I both got Ham Steak & Eggs and it was everything you picture getting when you choose that breakfast! A huge piece of ham with a bit of crispy here and there from the grill it was so good and the eggs were cooked perfectly over easy ! The best part was the giant smile on my kids face when the Mickey Mouse pancake with a cool whip and sprinkle face came to the table. I couldn't get that pic he was too busy digging in lol A great spot I would recommend for breakfast read more

A sleeper. Great food. Older but clean. Only early bird breakfast that you can sit down and enjoy. Better than any fast food and staff friendly. Price a little high but given the quality and cost of running a business and these Covid times very fair read more

The food is good. It isn't over the top great. The only problem with Cardinal is that they have 2-3 waitresses who are awesome and on top of your needs, BUT, they have 2-3 who could care less about their customers and definitely show how much they don't like their job. Sad thing is, these women remain employed there. They never refill drinks, my coffee is very important to me, and they never come back once they deliver your food. Breakfast is pretty good. Club sandwich and burgers are great. I just wish the owners would observe their staff a little better and get rid of the waitresses who obviously don't want to be there. I'd rate higher if their wait staff had better attitudes. When you visit, I hope Sarah is your waitress because she is their best! read more

The best non-chain breakfast joint in Camden. The biscuits and gravy are good. The omelettes are excellent. For stars only because of the breakfast. Nice variety and not expensive. They offer lunch too but it's not as good. I wouldn't recommend the chili. It's not homemade and would be better on a chili dog. read more

Don't go on a Sunday!! Go look at the picture I upload of the food they have me, I was highly disappointed. read more

Cardinal Cafe - Not only did my food look bad but my husband didn't have fries with his order. - New American Near Me - Camden, Arkansas

I ordered a Hamburger and a Cheese burger and a single order of fries with the Cheese burger. Gave special instructions to no mayo, mustard, or catchup on the burgers. Also asked for the lettuce , pickles and tomato wrapped separate. I arrived to pick up the order and was told the price for this would be $27. Obviously I questioned the price. I was told it was because I paying for two orders of fries. In the final analysis after demanding the price from the menu I was required to pay $13 pulus change. I opened the bag to inspect before leaving the place and to my horror the sandwiches were not as I ordered, they were fully made with mayo, lettuce, pickles and tomato. For the length of my drive home fixed this way the bread would be soggy wet and not worth the price. I've only ever had the burgers while dinning in and they were awesome. This experience left me with a never again for take out. read more

Not great but not bad. Good breakfast and lunch. Friendly service and reasonable price.

Ate there today. After waiting 35+ minutes they Served us COLD catfish! Couldn't get hush puppies after asking 3 times! Cold fries. They said it was due to shift change. Not worth the wait! Better catfish at other places. No return as they didn't care! read more

Great local place here. My only common complaint is that service can sometimes be slower than ideal, but often the food is often delicious enough that you wont mind a little longer of a wait. Their breakfast is delicious, and their lunch and dinner foods are definitely all worth trying. read more

On a recent rainy day I bundled my very old mother up and took her to the Cardinal cafe. I'd told her good things about this place, she was visiting from Dallas. Welp, I got her and her walker tucked into a cozy booth and our wait person took our order. We waited, but to me that's okay, it's not a fast food joint and we didn't want fast food. Then along comes another couple who sit at the table right next to us. They order, their food arrives, they eat and request a takeout box and guess who's still waiting? read more

My family and I ate at here recommendation of a friend on 3/19/2018. We ordered breakfast. Our waitress was nice but new (only 2 days and appeared understandably nervous) She took our order. We asked if it was country ham breakfast and she said it was; but it wasn't. My neice did not get any ham and I did not get my toast. She was not pleased with her hash browns, they were swimming in oil or butter and asked for new ones and the ham she ordered. I ordered two pieces of country ham which I plan to pay extra for and I took her toast. After the waitress went back several times to the back, the cook/owner came out accusing my neice of eating most of food when she had never touched it. He was raising his voice as we tried to explain to him what happened and he would not listen. She told him never mind. He became angry and told us to get out of his place. I offered to pay 4 for mines & my sisters food and he said never mind; just GET OUT. I won't be going back ever again. Even the waitress apologized for his behavior. The restaurant was full of customers. read more
