    Brahman!
    Amanda A.

    Ok, well, I love a good local place to eat and when I saw the Brahman bull, it was over. (I love Brahman cattle! Have a few!) Great food and great service!

    18 oz. Ribeye special on Saturday night. One serving!

    This may be the best steak we've ever had, ever! Service was immediately friendly and attentive, and our server Gabby was very responsive. The steak was buttery, tender, well-seasoned, and the two sides of salad and baked potato were well-portioned and dressed. We never give a five star, but this is the place! We're telling our friends across the US- Go to the Cattle Drive Cafe!

    Chicken Parmesan

    Cattle Drive Cafe is located in Coleman Texas on their main road downtown. Many good places to eat here. Atmosphere: Very large dining area split into several different rooms of an old downtown building. For some reason on the day we visited it was about 55° inside the restaurant. There were a couple of tables with blankets over their laps and EVERY table had people wearing coats or heavy jackets. It was a very mild day outside, so I don't know what the need for the low temperature, AND all the fans were blowing. Their was no explanation from staff on why it was so cold. 0.5 Stars Service: Other than the cold, the waitress was very nice and attentive. We were sat almost immediately when we arrived and the place was hopping. Food was served fairly quickly. 1.5 Stars Food: We had some fried pickles and their famous onion rings. Both were quite good. Wife had the small cheeseburger and said it was good. Daughter had the chicken fried chicken which she said was very good. Gravy was nice and peppery. My son went with the special of the day which was a rather surprising dish of chicken parmesan. it was huge. He managed to get about of it down before packing it up to eat later. I had the fried catfish which comes in nugget form and quite good. Everything got cold very quickly because of the room temperature but it all came out hot. 1.5 Stars Overall: all of the food was quite good with large portions. Many dishes could easily be split between two people. Hopefully our temperature fiasco was just an anomaly and it won't be that way next time we go. But we would definitely like to go back and try a couple of other new items.

    Sirloin tips & zucchini - Amazing flavor!

    The food is melt in your mouth - Delicious! Love the atmosphere-football on all tv's & full bar Josie Wells was our waitress both times - top notch service!! Our first visit was at Christmas- we drove over to Coleman to shop downtown and decided to eat at the cattle drive. We went back last night. The "cowboy sushi" - our new favorite appetizer. Worth the drive from anywhere!! Our new favorite place to eat. Go in hungry come out full with leftovers to eat later!

    Steak fingers
    Chris C.

    Fantastic meal in every way! A quick drive from Abilene and we were treated to great food and excellent customer service. A rare combo these days. We had the steak fingers and chicken fried steak. Both were excellent. The CFS was fork tender and great flavor. My wife loved the steak fingers. They had a special on peach cobbler that day. My wife brought it home it was yummy! It was only 2 bucks!!! What a deal!! Our server was Andrea and she was AWESOME! She had a great spirit and obviously loves her job and Coleman. She told us about other things to do in town. We will definitely go back soon!

    We stopped in for lunch to try their burger. We were greeted and seated with - Quick friendly service. We ordered a cheese burger and home cut fries. The food came out for the kitchen and the burger was nice and tasty. Not over cooked, not a huge patty but big enough. The fries, egads, came out cold. Nothing worse than cold fries. We mentioned it to the staff and we were promptly told "don't suffer":) and they very quickly brought us out a fresh serving of nice hot fries, with no fuss and many apologies. It much appreciated and because of the service and tasty food, we will be back. Not to mention we want to give the very quaint bar in the back a try. Great small town atmosphere, supper friendly service. Well worth your time.

    Dang Good Rings!

    I've been holding out on my 900th review. Do I max out my credit card and go eat at the French Laundry in Cali? $1200 steak in Japan? Searching online I found a taco salad shaped like a Stetson! So, I headed to Coleman, Texas to check out Cattle Drive Cafe. Brought some hungry car club peeps along to check it out. One diner in fact had dined before and suggested the onion rings. Pleasant surprise that CDC's offerings were equal to some of my fave rings in the state of Texas. Fried pickles were possibly the best I've ever had. I chose the taco salad as I've been on an old school Tex-Mex quest lately. Tortilla presentation is unique; not akin to the bowl shape. Flat with a slight curve on the edges. Salad in the middle. Spring mix instead of iceberg so you know it's upscale wink wink. Chicken while acceptable could have been a bit more tender. Make the salsa and sour cream standard and offer an avocado component. Also, it needed beans to make it kick azz. While it also looks huge, it wasn't really a sharable plate. Others praises the chicken fried steak, fried catfish, and dessert selections. I'm planning on a return visit for a ribeye and those rings! Service was perfect even with a larger group; well done yall...Cattle Drive makes Coleman a nice lunch destination for my car club.

    Extreme allergy to onions, specifically asked for no onions on a #1 Cheeseburger, comes out with…read moreonions. They said they'd remake it, as I watch them through the window scrape the onions away from the patty and hand it back to me and and tell me it's a brand new fresh cooked burger. After returning it a 2nd time, it comes back with onions on it again. It took 3 tries to get the correct burger made. Clear instructions told eye to eye with 2 individuals tbat I will die if It has onions. If you're allergic to onions don't come here they'll kill your ass. Terrible service, and clearly they don't care about your well being over a $7 cheeseburger. Never coming back.

    Had a horrible experience... For one I ordered On the app at…read morearound 8:14, was done at 8:19 waited over 30 mins to even get our food. Got ice cream and it came melted like that's just horrible. Even got handed the wrong order after waiting, like what? Even decided to order something extra on the stall menu and had to wait just wanted an ice tea and wait was horrible. They gave us the drink for free but like gosh, other people who just drove in got their orders faster than ours. It's pretty much disappointing expecting something good, having to wait and get a bad experience. I understand it gets busy but it's important to keep up.. I myself work in the fast food industry and do my best to not get behind, letting ICECREAM melt is horrible can't forget that.. I'd rate this 0 honestly.
