This is one of our very favorite restaurants. The wait staff is phenomenal. They give great service - with a smile. We've commented on this, and they say, "It's because we're family, and we believe that everyone who walks in the door is part of our family, too." Well - they definitely live up to that motto. We are always greeted warmly, seated quickly, & served promptly. The food is always great, too. We love the cobb salad. Sometimes my husband gets the salmon, or the Shiner Fish basket. Those are always good. I am partial to the chicken & dumplings. A couple of times we have splurged, and had the Dr. Pepper cake. Oh, my!!! Yes - it's worth that extra trip to the gym. :) read more

Great service, rolls were great! chicken fried steak was horrible, mostly greasy, hard breading. macaroni was horrible.. maybe was a bad night for them. ‍ read more

The salad was wilted and brown but the other veggies were pretty good. Nothing special.

Just what Greenville needed, Texas comfort food at a convenient location. The chicken fried steak is as big as yo face, but tastier. Mine came with garlic mashed potatoes and steamed veggies (cancels out the CFS). I had to roll on out. Speaking of rolls, fresh ones come with dinner. Daily specials, including CFS and CF chicken on sale on Mondays. read more

service was fantastic here. our server Danielle did a phenomenal job. she was very friendly and attentive. overall a great experience

We ordered the chicken fried steak special and the steak was very tough..... not able to even chew it. The vegetables are barely warm, and the baked potato wouldn't even melt the butter. We had to ask multiple times for rolls and didn't even get refills for our tea. Not sure why this place can't be as good as the other Cotton Patch restaurants. read more

The Cotton Patch has a little bit of everything for you to try. They bring out warm, succulent rolls and butter but don't fill up on them!! You have to leave room for Fried Pickles! Yum!!! The street tacos are amazing! Hamburgers and cheeseburgers are delish! The chicken and dumpling soup and the loaded potato soup are terrific comfort foods! We always devour the food before I can snap a picture. I remembered today! Cheeseburger and Cobb Salad were on the menu today along with their awesome rolls. If you get a chance ask for Terra's table you won't be disappointed! Met the manager, Mariah, and what an amazing group of people she has working for her! Kudos to Mariah! read more

Support Cotton Patch Greenville by ordering take out if you are COVID concerned. I did-The salmon and turkey club are yummy and strawberry salad is tasty and blackberry cobbler is flavorful. read more

Service was slow and bad, had to ask multiple times for things. Steak was way over cooked. Not impressed at all.

Nothing special about this place but it's consistent service isn't bad it's not great but it's consistent. I think there's always something to be said for good home cooking style food done right at the right price. read more

Stopped in for a dinner with friends. The atmosphere is okay, the food was good, and the service was a little slow. The fried green tomatoes were very good. Overall, it was just okay. read more

My family & I visited for Sunday dinner and our server Claude was amazing. The food was pretty good. The kitchen was quite slow though it took cornbread awhile to come out, and the bread was real dark & crispy. I ordered the catfish but it was pretty black as well as if they fried it in old oil. The smell as soon as you walk in the building is terrible, I started to walk out just because of that. The smell in the bathroom was horrible as well I was sick to my stomach. Honestly the server made our experience way better than anything else. So thank you to Claude for being amazing if you go to Cotton Patch ask for him please! read more

We came in and the bread was cold, ordered drinks waited for the dishwasher to finish cleaning glasses the waiter said to get our drinks. My daughters lemonade came and it was separated he told us to stir it so it would taste ok and we waited for silverware to do that so she could drink it. So we ordered chips and queso and the chips tasted burnt and hard. They brought my sons burger out 10in before ours and he was done before we got our food. He said his burger was then for another table. We got the chicken tacos and it was room temperature and my daughter ordered chicken strips and they were burned. We won't be coming back nothing was good enough to finish. read more

My husband and I stopped by today for lunch at 1:30 and walked out at 2:15 in search of something to eat. He ordered the catfish dinner & I ordered the grilled Cajun duo. Neither of which should have taken over fifteen minutes to prepare. When we saw a table that was seated after us being served we walked out. We won't be going back. This is the second time we've ran into problems here. This establishment has a management problem. read more

Stopped for the night in Greenville and took in this local establishment. Comfort food. We had the meatloaf which was okay but not as good my husband's. Also had the baked squash which was delicious & corn. Daughter had lemon pepper salmon, broccoli & mushrooms. Appetizer was cornbread. Staff was very friendly and attentive. read more

Great experience on a Friday at lunch at this location. The server was great and attentive. The food was good and we weren't hurried to leave our table. The chicken fried steak was good and the strawberry salad was yummy. read more

Came here while my car was getting new tires and I was not disappointed! Grace was our server and she was on top of everything between the bread and water refills. My dad ordered the BLT and it was stacked with bacon! I ordered the Texas fire burger and it was delicious. Now I bet you are wondering why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 well... Texas Fire burger is suppose to be hot but I didn't get any of that fire kick! It was spicy but it wasn't that kick I was expecting but other than that it was probably my best experience at cotton patch. Next time I'm in Greenville I'll definitely hit up cotton patch! read more

Everyone got so excited about this place when They started to build it, but it's just another corpoate diner with microwaved food from cans. You are better off going to one of the more popular chain restaurants right around the corner for value and quality. read more

We met two other couples here for a mini high school reunion! ( Lunch) I had the fried chicken tenders, fried okra and French fries. Everything was delicious! The chicken was the best ever. For dessert , I had the blackberry cobbler. No one makes it better! We will be back in three months! I must add that our wait person Deidra was perfect! She made sure that we were kept in tea and anything else we needed! read more

This is my favorite restaurant in Greenville. The food is always delicious and the staff is always friendly. Service is typically pretty quick and there is never much of a wait to be seated. My favorite meals here are the chicken fried chicken and the pot roast. Delicious! read more

Don't get the fried catfish. Taste like frozen pre breaded fish. Tough batter. Service was good and place was clean. read more

Been there three times and everything we have tried has been great! Fried shrimp, meatloaf, salmon, cajun fish and shrimp plate all really good as well as vegetables and rolls. Plate sized chicken fried steak. Most entrees decent sized for price. Attentive service too. Home style cooking, good for families. Alcohol served. read more

Been here a few times. Isn't my first choice for a restaurant in town but isn't terrible either. Staff is always friendly and food is always right. Nice sit down place for a dinner with friends. read more

Not too shabby, had the Cajun duo... Not bad esp. if you want spicy!! Friendly and relatively fast service missed the temp on the steak twice but gladly removed it from the bill. Would come again if in the area. read more

Ordered a salad. It was very fresh . Service was a bit slow. Overall not too bad. I'd go again.

The management and staff here are so wonderful. I always get to go orders from them and the food is always amazing. I conducted a business meeting at their facility and the management took great care with my staff. I definitely recommend them. read more

The food & staff is amazing dining in but every take out order has been messed up the last four times. The first time I did not get gravy with my chicken fried chicken and was told I would receive a coupon in the mail, I did not. I almost contacted corporate after the third mistake but decided not to. Tonight I ordered peach cobbler and ice cream and noticed there was black residue in my ice cream after I had almost finished. I would not recommend ordering take out. read more

Went here on my way from Arkansas and this place was such a disapointment. When we got in, the atmosphere was cool and the service was decent, but the food was awful. The chicken on my salad was dry, rubbery, and looked as if it'd been sitting out for days. Also, my sons fish tacos were drenched in sauce. The 2 stars are for cleanliness and service, because the manager did take the salad off the bill without hesitation. read more

Horrible horrible customer service. I ordered out and they said 15-20 minutes. I got my food 45 minutes later and it was cold.

Well I usually really like it here. French fries were cold and tasted a day old. Fried okra was cold, and then to add insult to injury we had a roach on our table. Manager didn't even comp a desert my grandkids ordered. Won't be back. read more

Expected a good meal. Got soggy watered down caesar dressing didn't get my appetizer and my side was missing till half through the meal. Eat lunch here on business often. Disappointed in dinner. read more

Ok was in Greenville tonight for a funeral and ate here after. What a mistake that was I ordered the fried catfish and shrimp platter! The catfish was dripping with grease and it dripped so much grease all over my fries that they were inedible! It was a really big and clean and nice restaurant but the food was so disappointing compared to the Mckinney location. Yuck I still smell the grease. They comped my dinner but I just cannot get the smell of grease off me and I don't know if I'll be back! read more
