Un-BELIEVABLE! This place is amazing! I've been to Smithfield and this is just as good. Love the concept of this place and every time I come here I feel blessed to be a part of this place and also to eat such yummy food! Everything I've ever had here has been awesome. You'll think so too! Just get here and eat! And enjoy! In health and happiness! Cheers! Danny

Did my homework and brought CASH. They have an ATM if you forgot. But no prices, u pay what u think it's worth. What we ordered: Lemon blueberry French toast Texas Benedict Side of hash brown casserole Everything was great except for the watered down hash casserole. It was more like a soup , that's prob why it was in a bowl. I'd love to come back tho and try the lunches. The service was wonderful. The wait was not long but it looked busy. It's quite popular indeed and we can see why. Social media has really helped , that's how I found this place!

After being heartbroken that the Los Patios location closed down, we finally made the drive over to this one. While the look and size is smaller than the Los Patios location, the food and service is just as amazing! We had the cinnamon roll pancakes, the metro omlette, and two kids breakfast with oreo pancakes. Our waiter, Jeff was the best! He was very friendly, took good care of us, and celebrated my wifes birthday with us. The food, service and what they do are the best in San Antonio. Comfort Cafe is a must visit!

Drunken Monkey Scramble

I don't normally give 5 stars on my first visit. But this is a special case, and special place. First time here, and I know the background of the cafe. My server Jeff was great, attentive and yes he told me about himself. I ordered coffee with cream, a water and the Drunken Monkey Scramble without toasts. The coffee was good and refreshing as I hadn't had any yet. The Scramble was very good and was the perfect choice for me today as it satisfied my hunger without me feeling stuffed (Note: I saw another table receiving their waffles and pancakes and OMG!!big delicious looking portions). Back to my food. Perfect bite size chunks of meat, veggies and eggs. They only accept cash, and recommend a $15 a dish donation. Jeff explained that you put the funds for the meal on the Ticket side of the holder, and any tip on the other. Or just put it all together. These funds go to help others recover from various addictions. You then leave the holder on the table and then leave. I ended up leaving $25 for the food and $5 tip. I look forward to going back. If you never have tried the Comfort Cafe, you have to go inside and by the Hostess stand you will see a computer tablet where you enter your information to be put on the waiting list. Great food, great service, great atmosphere and great cause hence why the 5 stars.

This place never lets you down if you do it right. Things sell out, so don't wait until the end of the day if you want the specials. Once you check in, stop by their coffee shop, Sweet Serenity, for a great little waitlist self care item. And don't forget cash! They have ATMs at both locations if you do. Everything here is great, so you really can't go wrong. The corned beef hash is a must on my list. Get there early, bring cash, and enjoy.

This place is absolutely amazing! The staff, the atmosphere, the food, the food, the food! So much food and it was absolutely delicious! I want to come back and try all the different amazing dishes.

First time visiting this location, but I've gone to other Comfort Cafes, so I'm familiar with the premise. Food was delicious, place is always welcoming and our waiter, was wonderful. As many know, you pay what you can, and if you can, the suggested price is $15 with a little extra for sides. And the food is worth it.

French toast
Carree W.

Our first time trying out this place. Our server was great and he told us the story behind the cafe - how everyone that worked there are recovering addicts and that they go by donations and only cash. (They have an ATM by the bathroom.) It's a very unique place! We ordered our meals and they were good portions. I had a benedict and I enjoyed it. My daughter loved her french toast. Their food was pretty good! I recommend trying this place and supporting them!

All the food is delicious and the staff are amazing. We love coming & supporting their recovery mission.

Staff was great. Just make sure you answer the call when you make a reservation; if not they take you off the list. But other than that it was awesome. Food was great and it's for a great cause!

Sammy Benny... a twist on Eggs Benedict. This is smoked salmon on the Eggs Benedict and a side of cheesy potatoes topped with bacon bits.

Came on a Saturday and it was packed but it moved quickly. This is a non profit and runs on donation. No set prices. Donation based pricing, pay what you can or what you wish for your meal. It's for a good cause, supporting addiction recovery. Anyway, food was great! Presentation was great. Servers were attentive and friendly. Only complaint was that it was HOOOTTT in there like sweating while eating lol. Otherwise worth giving it a try.

Corned beef hash with poached eggs 3/2026
Sabrina S.

This brunch spot had been on my list forever and we finally made it in after a morning hike at OP Schnabel Park. Be forewarned, this place gets quite busy....actually very busy, so depending on the time of arrival, expect a long wait. I think we waited up to an hour. When we were finally seated, our server introduced himself and gave us a little story on the background of Comfort Cafe. Know that this is a cash only donation based restaurant- all proceeds go directly to their rehabilitation programs. Account for $15-$20 per person. Their menu was extensive- breakfast/brunch and lunch menus. I opted for the corned beef hash- nice poached egg atop corned beef potato hash, seasoned nicely and not overly salty. Maybe could have used a side toast and jelly. Hubby ordered the chicken and waffles with a side of eggs and bacon- delicious! Not one crumb left behind lol The restaurant was open, warm, and friendly. Everyone, including the servers seemed so happy to work there. Lots of Birthday celebrations were happening, many songs to be sung and candles to be blown out : )

the maple waffle board really hit the sweet spot
Stephanie E.

Ask the Community - Comfort Cafe

Is a cash only business?

Yes, cash only. They do have an ATM in the restaurant.

Wait time to eat?

30min if they are busy, and they are almost always busy. Such a good cause I don't mind the inconvenience. You can sit in your car cause they will text you.

How u check in or place a reservation?

Reservations are for 8 or more everyone else can walk in - the wait is not what it used to be at Los patios

How can I make a reservation for Thanksgiving?

You can get on los patios waitlist or if your a party of 8 or more you can make a reservation at either location on FB messenger or call

Do you take reservations?

For parties of 8 or more yes

How can I get on the waitlist for Mothers Day at the Loop 410 location?

You will probably have to wait until Mother's Day. I don't see where there is a " Call ahead". Another option is call the cafe itself and ask.

Are there better times on weekends where the wait isn't that long?

Usually within the first hour of opening, you can get in fairly quick. After that, go through Yelp and join the waitlist ahead of time so when you get there, you only have a few minutes to wait after checking in. The location on Bandera seems to do… 

How do I get on the waitlist?

There is one for los patios location sign on through yelp - there isn’t one for Bandera just walk in

Do they do takeout?

Yes but need to come in and order

How do I reserve a table? How much time in advance is needed for a reservation?

You don't reserve a table. I would either go first thing in the morning, get in line online, or just be prepared to wait because it gets packed quick.

Is there a coffee bar at the Bandera location?

We have Vietnamese and cold brew but not full bar

Hello! What forms of payments are accepted?

Check or cash - we do have ATM on site

What's my place in line?

Los patios yelp should tell you

Years ago I used to have a job where I needed to wear suits and professional attire on a daily basis. For years I kept those suits and dresses thinking I was probably going to need them again in the near future. Well after five years of just storing them and never wearing them I decided to donate them at Dress for Success. Why I chose this nonprofit? Because I know that the clothes I donate will go to someone that actually needs it and will make good use of it. The donation process was super easy. They take donations Monday to Friday from 9:00am - 12:30pm, except for the first week of the month. When you arrive to the building, you need to head to the back area where you will see a gate. A staff member will let you in and will pick-up all your donations. If you need a donation receipt for your taxes they can also provide that for you. I am so happy that I was able to support this amazing organization and I appreciate all the work they do to empower women!

If you are looking to spay your cat or dog, definitely give Spay Neuter Network a call!…read more My family and I had been wanting to spay our dog for some time, but the cost of it was something that was definitely keep us from actually doing it. Our veterinarian had originally quote us almost $1,000 just for the spay, which seemed a little over the top for such a common procedure. I went online and found Spay Neuter Network which is a nonprofit that provides affordable spay/neuter services for dogs and cats. Making the appointment online was super easy and I originally only had to pay $20 to secure my dog's appointment. On the day of the appointment my husband dropped him off at 7am and by 3:00pm he was ready to go home. At the end, we did end up paying about $100 more for some additional vaccinations that our dog needed prior to the procedure. It's been a week since the surgery and my dog is feeling great and we haven't had any issues. I am so happy to have found Spay Neuter Network and will definitely recommend to all my friends and family!

I requested information on my female cat surgery costs. front desk mentioned some zipcodes do free…read moresurgery. well my zipcode didnt qualify so she said it was $65 dollars. well that $65 dollars turned into $137 dollars. stop cheating people and calling yourself "Affordable " Making people make lines outside before its open . clinic opens at 7am . i got there at 6:43 am and there was already 14 people in front of me waiting in cold with dogs and cats barking and howling with no control . its ridiculous when people do this for a clinic that charges the same prices as a regular clinic that has more operating hours and better facilities. Next time i know not to come here. if im paying over 100 dollars i rather go to a nice clinic not this one . front desk is rude as well and dont even try and call because they will leave u on hold for hrs .

I would say come in take a look and walk out with something for your home or next project. You will also be help out such a cool nonprofit. Did you know Habitat sells homes too? I walked into there office lobby next door to the store and picked up an application for my brother.

This place is hard to rate. They have a couple of outlets - one on S Probandt, and one on Walzam…read moreRd. Probandt is an old warehouse and the goods are presented in a commensurate fashion, making it kind of a dump to go to. BUT it is very large and they have a lot of items. The Walzam Rd location is smaller, more store-like and a lot cleaner. Selection is similar but my impression is of smaller quantities and more limited selection. They both carry a wide range of construction and household materials, whether reclaimed from remodels or demolitions, or closeouts, seconds and scratch-and-dent. They also have a lot of paints, much of which is "evolve", a brand that keeps excess project or returned paint from being senselessly dumped in landfills. Prices are better than the building materials stores, but you still need to know what a good price is, as some of the smaller household goods can be found for less elsewhere (mainly online). But bargains are to be found if you don't mind spending time browsing. I suggest coming prepared with a complete list of what you might need, so you come away with what you really want at a price that suits you. All of that said, remember that this is a thrift store for Habitat for Humanity, a very good organization that makes affordable housing available for low income people. So anything you buy supports a great cause. I would have rated this 3-stars, but the nature of what their main focus is caused me to make it 4-stars since the dollars you spend here contributes to helping people in need.
