Oh well!…read moreThe clerk working the order tablet was very helpful and made our experience a little bit better. I ordered a Red Eye, coffee with an espresso shot, and split an orange-cranberry muffin with Mom. Overall, the time spent was very good. Would eat here again if I'm ever in the area again.

The food tastes like it came straight out of a family kitchen--fresh, hearty, and downright delicious. The atmosphere is exactly what you hope for in a hometown diner: locals chatting over coffee, a welcoming vibe the moment you walk in, and a staff that treats you like you've been coming there for years. Everyone is genuinely friendly, and it's clear this spot is a community favorite. One of the small town touches the place boasts is that it's connected to a boutique, so you can enjoy a great meal and then browse around a bit. Nestled in this little Texas town, Darlin's Diner just has that warm, welcoming feeling that makes you want to sit a little longer and come back again. Small town, big flavor, and even bigger hospitality. Highly recommend.

Our last day in town we visited this place for breakfast…read more The service was phenomenal, all the servers and food runners would always checking on tables. We ordered an omelet, eggs Benny, waffles, and a BLT. All the food was fresh and delicious. The chai tea and coffee were also great! They have the cutest store in the back where you can go crazy buying unique gifts. I left with a ton of treasures. Such a Darlin place!

I'm also a first time mom and not working currently so my funds are low for spending. The staff (shout out to the ones I've met so far) Kevin, Brittany and Terrance took the time to explain how the cafe works. so many delicious options, I went with the jalapeno popper omelette which did not disappoint. Brittany helped navigate a coffee I would enjoy and I did! Try the Vietnamese iced coffee so good. my daughter and I sat outside and met Terrance, who came right up and introduced himself. made sure we were doing good and dj'd some great tunes. I'm not sure who was at the counter today but she was lovely. thank you all for the experience and great food

With perfectly cooked bacon, crisp, cold lettuce, a beautiful, ripe, plump tomato with the right amount of mayo and some s&p and soft, lightly toasted bread. Not. What. I. Got. lol the bacon was burnt to a crisp, the tomato yellow and picked way too soon. No mayo. Hard bread. I also got a cup of tomato soup... also, not what you expect. I immediately felt sick after leaving. The restaurant was empty. We were literally the only table there. However, if you ask around the locals say this is the place to go to. Weird.

Staff was overall incredibly kind and warm. The place was clean and aesthetically pleasing. I ordered the Classic French toast with potatoes and bacon. My friend got the Burton Farmhouse plate. And OMG the French toast was to die for. It was thick cut and perfectly fluffy with a slight cinnamon taste. The potatoes were crisp and perfectly seasoned. The bacon was also beautifully crisped and salty. I had some of my friends pancake and also approved! The only reason that I did not give it 5 stars was because the coffee and beverage quality could be better. Coffee tastes a bit burnt and the orange juice was not the best but that honestly was such a minimal detail that I truly did not care too much about. Otherwise, this is the best breakfast I've had in a very long time.

Reminds me of Panera bread except local. The lunch specials are a STEAL - it comes with a drink and side salad or fruit salad. I thought the drink was going to be a small cup but it was HUGE. I wish the paninis had more substance but I loved the flavors (something about basil pesto that I really love too). Ingredients also tasted fresh and we didn't wait too long for it all to come out. If anyone needs to make a pit stop, I would recommend this place.

To many times we have pulled up to the mainstream go to places. But Located in a small town right off I-10. Beautiful old town. Right in line with the other boutique shops was Dewberry Cafe. You could tell, this is where locals come. Soon as I opened the door I knew I wanted to sit down. Refills a plenty - fantastic coffee! Just like mom used to make. Eggs / bacon / biscuits and gravy.

I don't think that itself harms the score but certainly some upgrades to bathrooms would not hurt.

Going to win the battle in food for certain demographics..seeing kielbasa sausage with sauerkraut and bacon I am right at home. Country fried pork, cooked cabbage, real mashed potatoes and I follow you anywhere, but realize it's not for everyone. There was a salad bar section but I was interested in other items. Some items were not really warm like the sausage, fried chicken, beef stew compared to other items like country friend pork sitting right beside them which was disappointing. Still food flavor was good and this is good ole' fashioned recipe prep. Chicken soup was very good and scalding hot. Hot peach cobbler and banana pudding for desserts were very good and would put the banana pudding in a state fair contest and confidently claim blue ribbon status prior to judging. Don't let the score fool you, I'd be back just because it's my comfort food preference and I have some tolerance but for families getting off the highway with picky eaters may keep going. Country folks and truckers coming off a long day will appreciate the down home feel.

I watched them replenish the condiments on the salad bar, they came from huge jars of goo. On the hot bar, the vegetables were obviously low-grade offerings from a food service company. The meats were overcooked and over seasoned. The ribs were of such poor quality, they were inedible. The peach cobbler was halfway decent, couldn't tell what the other hot dessert was. Service was initially quick but then the server never returned. Ambiance? A poor man's country store. Schobel's in Columbus is much better for this type of food. Skip this place.
