Good food if you want a good country breakfast and the atmosphere this is the place to go

*** great roadside diner in northeastern New Mexico *** After checking out a local pumpkin patch and corn maze on 10.12.2025, my daughters and I were quite famished. My youngest let me try her chicken enchiladas ($12.99) - pretty good! The other girl had a cheeseburger which she seemed to enjoy ($13.49). My heart was set on the "Cook's Favorite Con Queso" ($15.99) - "A hamburger steak topped with our own homemade green chili cheese sauce, sprinkled with cheddar cheese served with rice, beans, red chili salsa and basket of tostadas." The green chili cheese sauce was amazingly hearty and mild with spice. I did not want to stop eating it. Lol. I was not, however, a fan of the red chili salsa at all. It tasted too much like Pace Picante Sauce to me. The service was really great. Plenty of free parking. To date, they only had a sign that said "Restaurant" on the outside, so it was hard to tell if we were at the right place. No wonder my work crew always eats here when they travel to the Clovis area. Seems like a good option for breakfast too. RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4| Price: 4 read more

Service is second to none and the food is great for every meal. Place is super clean!

Had the steak dinner special and it was all great! The salad was very fresh and crisp and my friend had fried shrimp and it was also bery good. It was clean and the service was great. The only thing this place needs is a nice sign out front because there is no sign. Its next to the Loves Truck stop in the same patking lot. Try it! read more

I rated this high due to Judy our waitress. Judy was by far the Best waitress we have ever had!!!!!! She strives to take care of the customer in every way so kudos to Cook's for having her as a valued waitress. The food was great also but I have to brag on Judy. We were passing thru having breakfast and she saw we had brought in our own cups and offered to rinse them and refill which most waitresses have to be asked but Judy went above and beyond!!! read more

My food, eggs, ham, hash browns, biscuits, gravy was well made and delicious. I also got the cinnamon roll. It was huge, almost took up a whole dinner size plate! It was also scrumptious. I'll be having it for a snack later today. The service was excellent and I was checked on several times but not annoyingly so. The restaurant is a typical diner style restaurant. It was very clean and the customers were truckers and locals. I highly recommend Cooks Diner. read more

Super-friendly, welcoming, helpful and perfectly cooked steak. Everyone at Cook's went out of their way to check we were enjoying our food and it was delicious-bloody as hell on request. Highly recommend. read more

Random stop on the drive home. Pleasantly surprised by the excellent chips and salsa. Cheese enchiladas were pretty fair and the chicken strips and fries were good. It's not former, but it's good and it beats fast food. Service was excellent. read more

Stopped during road trip from Oregon to Texas....fantastic and speedy service. Food was great! Classic diner feel. PS Try the ranch...even the 7 yr old agreed it was perfect. Menu items purchased: Enchiladas x2 Green Chile con queso BLT & onion rings Kids grilled cheese and fries Have it on our list for the return trip. read more

Just traveling through Clovis to have lunch at Cook's restaurant what a find!! Everyone was so friendly and our waitress suggested that we have the tenderized pork tenderloin with a side of gravy and my wife had the hamburger basket both were outstanding The place was a 10 for the food and the staff and it seemed like everyone knew each other! We will be back next year on our way home from Az. 5 red stars read more

the food was absolutely amazing. i had the steak fingers, my friends had tacos and a patty melt. not trying to be dramatic but the best food i've ever had. i'm passing through so i'm going to be so upset to not eat here again. the service was amazing too everyone was so sweet and super kind. everything was really clean and it was sooooo cute. i loved the vibe of the place i wish i had one in my state read more

This place doesn't even deserve one star. The food was so gross. My husband and I didn't eat all day and usually when you're hungry everything tastes good. This place tasted like something you would feed your cats. I ordered chicken noodle soup and my husband got fried chicken steak with mashed potatoes and a side of fries and ranch. The chicken tasted so old and the oil it was fried in must have been old too. They must have been reusing the oil and frying everything in there. Mashed potatoes and gravy were tasteless but you can tell it was old. Reminded me of like baby formula. The chicken noodle soup was probably just heated up from cans and just tossed some canned chicken into it. The macaroni in the soup was overcooked and falling apart. Chicken was over cooked too. It was nasty so I tried to add some flavor and added Tabasco sauce and I still couldn't eat it. We barely touched our food. The only thing that was decent was fries and ranch. Someone smoked in the restaurant....and how can you eat and smoke in the same place.?!!!?!! Waitress was nice though. She asked if the food was good and I didn't want to be rude to her because she was nice. But it was terrible. Probably like prison food. I would not be surprised if we got food poisoning from this place. read more

Had the Pork Chops which was over seasoned and salty. Wife had the Chicken Fried Steak which was tasteless. Portions were large which if you are hungry is a good point. Service is good. Maybe a simple hamburger would have been a better option. Clean Bathroom earned this place 3 stars. read more

This is the spot for breakfast in Clovis for sure. It is a classic American greasy spoon diner. Great service and they serve breakfast all day. They also have delicious fresh fried chicken if you are into that. Hits the spot. read more

For my first time here, I'm very disappointed. The waiter took over 10 min to take our drinks and another 30 min to bring our food on a slow day. I ordered a patty melt with onion rings. The patty melt is way overpriced for the size of it and it only came with 4 small onion rings. read more

This was the best breakfast at 6pm. The chef and waitress made us feel like all the rest of the locals. The table next to us had homemade beef barley soup served with corn bread. A definite stop read more

Love the Chicken Enchiladas, chips and salsa is my favorite. Patty melt is good. Also great Burgers and Breakfast is always good!

I had chicken enchiladas with red & green chili sauce. The green sauce was a cheese sauce but still really good. Everything was very mild including their salsa. My husband had the hamburger steak with rice & beans which he said was very good. The beans are pinto not refried. The service was great & friendly. Clean with a cowboy atmosphere. read more

Good food a big portions. When you hear Truck Stop Diner this place is not what comes to my imagination. The booths are always packed with families and friends enjoying good food read more

Great breakfast! Good prices! Has an old time feel, great service, and overall a great experience

Wonderful Thanksgiving dinner! The raisin sauce for the ham is not to be missed, sweet potatoes were perfect sweet but not too sweet. Turkey mashed potatoes stuffing were excellent. And the service was perfect. No room for the pumpkin pie having it later. read more

Good food, amazing service. Sure, it's a truck stop restaurant, but it's amazing! Best breakfast in town (served all day). Beef vegetable soup is also really good! read more

Literally just had one of the best smothered burritos I've ever had. The salsa was thicker than most places and delicious, the large chunks of tomato and peppers were just right. The steak is a bit expensive but I'm anxious to try it next time I come in. The waitress was new but did a great job. She didn't know the answer to a question I had asked but she was quick to find out. I really appreciated that. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that one of the regulars kept staring at me while I ate and it was really starting to piss me off. They should ban the white haired guy with glasses before someone smashes his face into the counter. I'm not much into getting upset with elderly people but he was young enough to know better. read more

I had breakfast for the first time here, at 3 in the morning, with four of my friends who just graduated from college. Food was fantastic and so was our server until it came time to pay for our tickets. We all paid in cash and she never came back with the change. We figured that she desperately needed it since she made over $40 off of us walking off with our change, never to be seen again. read more

Terrible. I regret wasting my money on this place. The vegetable beef soup was room temperature AND only had 1 piece of beef in it. The bacon on my blt was also room temperature and tough like it had been pulled out of the fridge from yesterday's leftovers and then left sitting out until it reached room temp. The tomatoes were soggy and the lettuce was limp and the sandwich was overwhelmed with miracle whip!! I hardly managed to eat any of the food. Just gross. The place was clean and the ice water was in a nice clear glass and tasted good. The waitress was nice but not very attentive. I can't even give this place a 2 star because I need to help my regret to go away and I will hope that these people will get their shit together. read more

Affordable prices for breakfast and brunch. Great for the following basics: pancakes, eggs, waffles, fries. Nothing too out of the ordinary. It's a little on the greasy side, but what diner doesn't have a little grease to their flare? Always open, and restaurant has a historic/country/railroad feel. Typical atomisphere are locals and truckers that pass on by. read more

This place is fantastic for breakfast! I normally come here during the weekends and it's great everytime. The staff is oober friendly. Partly because the majority of them are sweet old ladies that would pretty much remind you of your grandmother. I usually get the No.3 or the No.5. The eggs, bacon, and hashbrowns are cooked to perfection. However, if you order something that does not come with pancakes. Then order a side of pancakes! If you come here with one other person, I suggest you just order that one side of pancakes because they are huge!! I have yet to see one other person other than myself, finish an entire order of pancakes here. So if you want a home cooked style breakfast. Cook's Truck Center is the place for you! read more

Pancakes are delicious! Will go again and again! The coffee was so not good though, too watered down for me.

Good place to stop and get a bite to eat kn your travels. Good food for the price and friendly atmosphere.

I have to say I wasn't expecting much. But the service was outstanding. Food was good. Typical diner food. But fresh and the salsa was good. I would definitely stop here again read more

I'm a truck driver, so a good meal on the road can be difficult to find, especially during these times of Covid. I've been to Cook's probably 5 times in as many years, and I always get the chicken enchilada plate with rice, beans, and their delicious chips & salsa. Snooty travelers from other states won't appreciate the home cooked quality this place has to offer, and get upset when it's not as good as the Manhattan sushi restaurant they ate at days earlier. GET OVER IT. Food on the road is hit & miss, and this place is definitely a hit. I'll be back whenever I'm in the area. read more

Worst meal I have eaten in Clovis NM. We were really hungry after a long day of packing and moving. This place should be featured on restaurant rescue. We ordered 2 chicken fried steak plates and a ribeye breakfast. The two chicken fried steak plates were inconsistent, one had a large steak on it and the other one was tiny. The gravy was tasteless like a flour and water paste...The salad that came with the chicken fried steak plates, the lettuce was transparent, and slimy because the lettuce had gotten frozen. We were brought out soup after I pointed out the quality of the salad to the waitress. I wouldn't serve a person the salad they brought out...The ribeye came out a few minutes after the chicken fried steak plates, it was ordered medium rare and it was well done. After about 15 minutes another one was brought out. It was better. The manager came over and tasted the gravy on the chicken fried steak and said herself it was awful. We were also told the cook didn't specialize in cooking steaks???We were discounted one chicken fried steak meal. The French fries, ranch, and the crackers & butter I ate were the best thing I had at this restaurant. We should of went somewhere else. read more

This place is a hidden gem right next to the Loves truck stop. The reviews on Yelp were good so I thought I would try it out. Ordered the chicken enchiladas. The waitress brought out a big basket of fresh, hot tortilla chips and a large bowl of very tasty chunky salsa. The enchiladas arrived and they were piping hot smothered in queso sauce with pinto beans and cheesy rice to the side. The enchilada were topped with lettuce and a generous amount Chicken Enchiladas.

On the way from Santa Fe to San Antonio, TX we stopped at Cook's Truck Center for brunch. The people in our group had the green chili cheese hamburger, the daily fried chicken special and the regular hamburger with fries. Everything was absolutely delicious and the service was top-notch! Oh, and yes, the home-made chicken noodle soup was just like my grandma used to make. Yummy!! read more

The best breakfast diner in Clovis if you are looking for traditional diner food. Open 24hrs on the weekends so don't go to Denny's or ihop ever. Only negative and why it's 4 instead of 5 is the quite high prices for the traditional food you are getting. read more

We have only been for breakfast and it's great! Prices are fair for what you get and the service is always friendly. We go there about once a month. read more

I ordered green chili chicken enchiladas which were delivered with cream of chicken soup on them. The salsa was tasteless. Rice was inedible. I reordered a grilled cheese sandwich which arrived almost burnt. No way! Never again! Horrible food. A lady behind the counter had the nerve to ask if I'd "ate" the chips and salsa! I couldn't believe it. $33.00 down the drain. Don't waste your time or money. read more
