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

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

I just left out of this location at 1604 in Bandera for some reason the young lady who's working behind the counter took my order. I included a tip. I ordered one delicious drink, which would've took about three minutes to make. I have to be somewhere just like everybody else does. I am very disappointed that she would allow whoever that was the health inspector to come in and start talking with her and I'm pretty sure the inspector told her to finish up with me the customer which makes sense however she chose to leave my order unfinished undone on the counter while she went in the back and proceeded to take the inspector around the back storage area and looked out the back door. Well, I'm standing up there waiting. I believe that it's just unprofessional very poor customer service and this is why people do not like to tip before receiving service. She would not like to have been waited on like that, or serve like that nor the person whom she was escorting around the store. Now that is what you call poor customer service. It takes three minutes maybe four to complete my order. There was no reason for you to have been all over the store with someone who appears to have been there before I got there and would more than likely be there for short period of time after I left so three minutes to take my order and complete completed. Will not have put that personal you behind schedule just very disappointed you should never have someone up there waiting around like that that was very unprofessional and you would not have liked for me to have served you that way it was not OK and it was wrong and you knew it! I don't want you to make this a habit and do it to anyone else Rule number 101 excellence when nobody's watching !!!
