    Price on receipt and change due!
    Shawn E.

    We usually come here and eat every time we go to Stephenville- this will be the last time based on their stupid policy!!! My Change portion was .24 and no that's not much but the waitress kept it and told me when I asked that it's their policy to keep the change if under .50- I call BULLSHIT!!!! They just lost a customer. Not much money but that is robbery if they are taking peoples money free!!! We don't get free money and they sld not expect to get free money either!!!! Not by robbing folks like that!!!

    Most uncomfortable chairs anywhere!!! Changed menu to look cheaper but actually most are same price as they eliminated say the standard grilled chicken from their Big Ol Cobb Salad $9.99 plus $3 grilled chicken still equals $12.99 same as always. Why not just actually go down on prices rather than fake it? Also, sometimes we can sit at a booth with a high chair and other times we are stuck in these crap-tastic hard wooden chairs. Bring in a group and they cram everyone together where no one on the back row can move or get out. Service is normally pretty good except on Sunday when it takes double time to get food. Oh and high chairs are still broken and in bad condition- nothing has changed in two years! Food today was off in flavor- chicken fried steak breading was bitter tasting like too much baking soda or old oil. The salad I had - the avocado had turned, the tomatoes were very sour, and the ranch tasted off -- it's a meal I get almost every visit and is normally pretty good. The rolls were smaller than normal and not as tasty, and what happened to the TV's? Why all the changes? Why take so much off your menu?

    First visit to to a Cotton Patch since I gave 4 star pleasantries for the Brownwood, Texas location. So, maybe I've come to my senses. Down one star for this location in Stephenville, TX. Go for the bread; totally worth it. Two bucks for the skillet cornbread smothered in honey and a dollop of butter. Got to sample the tiny loaf shaped rolls that I missed on my last visit. Friggin' delicious! The wheels came off the wagon after that. My turkey club suffered in several ways. First off, there shouldn't be black spots (rotten spot) on the avocado. It was also about two more days from being totally ripe. Bacon was cooked on a solar panel attached to the International Space Station and returned to earth in a pine box..it should have been buried. The tortilla soup (referencing our previous visit) suffered from mushy vegetables. Additionally, the chili powder was almost double versus the previous bowl. GF only had a few spoons and switched to the onion rings and 1/4 of my sandwich. Service was attentive and friendly. Might just come back to eat bread

    The food is awesome, our server was so helpful and kind. Loved the feel of the restaurant. High energy but not so crazy you can't enjoy a conversation.

    First time coming here. I asked for a recommendation. The waiters was on point. The chicken fried steak was amazing. It's been a long time since I've had a really long time. It's was like home cooked. The gravy was creamy delicious. It could have used a tad more gravy but other then that no complaints. The bread rolls were pillow and super delicious. The jalapeño corn with honey butter is an awesome a definite must order.

    Ordered chicken and dumplings and a grilled chicken sandwich to go. The food was okay however, I quickly regretted finishing my meal after going in to eat the rolls.

    The food is okay, most of the time my food is heavily salted and most of the wait staff is rude. I wouldn't recommend going here.

The ribeye was perfectly cooked, tender and perfectly seasoned. My wife always gets the chicken fried steak. It's a huge meal and a heck of a deal. Each plate came with mashed potatoes and some veggies. I love desserts and I am always trying new places to find the best desserts. I can honestly say that Newton's bread pudding is the best bread pudding I have ever had and is one of my favorite desserts. I follow their social media and I always see their burger Tuesday's. We happened to be passing through and decided to stop in. Carlos was our server and he was on top of things and he offered great customer service. I got the triple meat smash burger with grilled jalapeños and bacon added. My wife got the buffalo chicken sandwich. They were both tasty. I would definitely stop by again for their burgers but their steaks are still my go to. And of course we had to finish our meals with a bread pudding!!

    Country decor is fitting for the "cowboy chef" and the menu falls right in line. The chicken fried…read moresteak was great, sorta wished my grilled veggies and mashed potatoes was separated on my plate instead of basically mashed together under the steak and gravy. My wife had the filet and the kitchen was nice enough to sub a gluten free pasta for the blue cheese gnocchi that was on the menu. The pasta was buttery and rich, very rich but my wife enjoyed it and said the steak was up there with the best steak she's ever had. Get the bourbon glazed carrot.. trust me.

    Cold beer! Cold beer! Ice cold beer! That's what this place is famous for:)…read more We were in town to visit my daughter and her husband and to see Tarleton State University play in the FCS playoffs. We needed some place to eat, and my daughter recommended this place. The location is easy to get in, and they have plenty of parking. After walking in, we found that they were not crowded yet. We were greeted quickly and taken to our seats in the main room. Our waiter brought us menus and water and left us to review the menu and decide on what we wanted. We ordered chicken sandwich, chicken strips. and a burger. It wasn't long until our food was delivered. Each order was just as we requested, hot, and tasty. It did not take long for our table to devour our meals I didn't get our waiter's name, but he did a good job. He probably is a student at TSU, as this business really caters to that crowd, and he fit the age. Will I return? Definitely when in Stephenville.

We were refused service because our dog was not a service animal with a vest. If that had been what was advertised, we would not have attempted to dine there. The excuse was the turf and that they can't change what is advertised. Turf is often used for easy clean up with dogs. Outside patios that don't allow dogs will prevent customers from coming. If the rest of their service is like this experience maybe it saved us a bad meal. Also maybe this is why on a Friday night this place is half empty.

    Okay, I have never graded a restaurant on their cleanliness but here we go…read more Yes, we did eat here today and it was frightening honestly. We walked in and over to a booth... the table appeared clean but the seats had food left in them for ... well I'm not sure how long. Moved to another booth that the guy way "wiping down" with a wet dirty rag and no cleaner. Yes, I am aware that some restaurants soak towels for this purpose, but I promise this was not the case. He did not wipe down the seats, but the food on the seat was to my right and there really was no other option, since all the chairs at the tables had hand prints on the top of the chairs and black dirt on the legs of the chairs. I informed the waitress that she might want to remind her bus boy that he should wipe down the seats. She apologized and I hope she passed on the information. While sitting there, I became more uncomfortable. Food on the walls. Air vents were black, like the AC filter has never been changed. I observed people behind the counter on an "ice rink of grease" sliding all around. The floors in the restaurant haven't been cleaned in days. It was 10 am, no way could they look like that from just a few hours. The grill has not been cleaned in well, it's been a while.... See photos, the aluminum wall guard was swiped at. But the controls on the grill were just nasty Waitresses were eating and drinking behind the counter, in front of customers. I didn't get to the restrooms, but if they are anything like the rest of the restaurant..... Coffee was as far as I wanted to go here. But my mom wanted to eat. So we ordered a burger and a steak sandwich. 40.00 plus tip. Food was subpar. Does were cold. Burger was not great. Mom liked her steak sandwich. Would I recommend this place. Absolutely NOT. We will not be going back. A giant waste of money.
