We had a great lunch, and the staff were so nice! Left a big tip for a big winning team! The blackened talapia was great, and my wife loved the fried fish.

Great job, Cotton Patch in Wylie! read more

My wife and I recently ate dinner at the Cotton Patch Cafe in Wylie. This was our first visit to a local Cotton Patch restaurant and we didn't know exactly what to expect. I was in the mood for comfort food and that was exactly what we received. I had a chicken fried steak and my wife had chicken fried chicken. My sides were mashed potatoes and green beans along with dinner rolls. We both thought our food was very good and exactly what we desired and anticipated. We were seated promptly and the waitress was friendly and attentive. The prices were reasonable. The decor and atmosphere were a little drab but we were a lot more interested in the quality and taste of the food than the amenities. If we have a future itch for comfort food, we will return! read more

Visiting on vacation from Montana. Husband and I wanted some fried okra, so our local friend suggested the Cotton Patch cafe. I had a brisket sandwich that was amazing. My husband had the chicken fried steak special. Our friend ordered a loaded baked potato that was topped with brisket. All the entrees were so good. The three of us shared a dessert. Our server was attentive. Things got very busy, but the staff did check on us. The decor was a pleasant, country cafe type vibe. Enjoyed our meal and would return again if we were local to the area. read more

Love this location. Food is always yummy, and hot and quick. Staff is always friendly, managers come by to make sure everything is ok. Shout out to our waitress Synthia! She was so attentive, and very friendly. Really enjoyed talking with her. My sister and I will definitely ask for her when we come back read more

ordered from Uber Eats paid extra $20 to get it delivered just for them to put the wrong food in the bag. The receipt was my order, but the food was not correct. so I still had to go to the store physically. Then when I called and went back up there to get my correct order, they did not give me anything extra or compensate me for anything barely even said they were sorry and when I got home, there were still Sides missing and I asked the girl was she sure that everything was in the bag and she said yes they double checked! I should've checked myself read more

Parking is clearly marked for the To go area and it's convenient by the pick up area. My Dad and I ordered the steak, medium rare with baked sweet potatoes. The steak came out perfectly, and the sweet potato was tender. The to go service was great, and the ambiance has a country theme, complete with country music. read more

I don't know what it is with this cook here. He is constantly over cooking the steaks and in one case undercooked my pork chop. Everything else is good, like the vegetables and the peach cobbler. read more

Cotton Patch Cafe - Overcooked steak. - Southern Near Me - Wylie, Texas

Do not door dash here. Two times in a row the dasher had to wait 30-45 min after getting there. This place is clearly going out of business soon. Don't waste your time. read more

BEWARE!!! Excess tips are taken on credit card charges. I went to dine at this restaurant. I had very, very poor service. Even though the service was poor, I still gave a tip to the server. The server then chose to add an extra tip and overcharged my credit card. I brought this to the manager's attention. I did not even get an apology. I finally received a credit back to my credit card for exactly the amount I was overcharged, nothing more. I reported a theft and all I got back was what was stolen, not even an apology. Very, very poor customer service. read more

Haven't been to one of these in maybe a decade. Very clean and nicely decorated. The staff was very kind and our waiter John was truly wonderful and interacted with the 2 young kids we had with us. He was fast, helpful and very kind. The food was so good. Apps was fried green tomatoes and brisket queso. Chicken fried steak, fried fish for entrees and the children had chicken tenders and Mac n cheese with 2 sides each. My son scarfed down the rolls (the boy likes bread) my grandson started with his fresh strawberries then on to everything else. We also went on the perfect night (Thursday) as chicken under 12 eat free with a $10 adult entree purchase. read more

Not the best. The restaurant was not well-kept. I would recommend revisiting foundational issues. Staff was cordial, though. Value could've been improved. read more

Our server Ashley S was amazing however the manager Daniela was rude and her way of being manager is completely trash. We had to send back the okra 2 times just for it to be made right and the chicken fried chicken was mainly just solid breading that we couldn't even cut into and her remark was oh well they just want a discount. No we come in here for good service and good food not soggy sides and overcooked chicken and bad manager skills read more

Lately this has been my family's go to eatery since we have gotten so busy. We were blown away by the friendly, excellent service each time we went and also the food. read more

The service was really good, food was delicious. Just down home cooking with some good looking new menu additions.

Possibly the best chicken fried steak I've ever had! Their Texas Value meals are the bomb..... and made from scratch. Combine with the value of only being $9.99 and this place is a winner! read more

great food, very comfortable environment. Ginger is great and funny. Definitely will be back again

The staff was friendly. However, the place wasn't clean. The food tasted restaurant quality but could've been a better value.

Wife and I eat here quite often as both the food and service is excellent . You have to try the cinnamon cornbread as a side. It is served hot and is excellent.. .. read more

The food is first rate! Our favorite is the Chicken Fried Steak. They have absolutely the best. Give this place a try ~ you will be glad you did. read more

We went to eat dinner , the food is ok for the price but the Manager needs more training. After the waitress took our order and ask us fifty times how our food was ! The manager came over and ask us the same questions, how's your food ? Can get you anything? But the way he stands so close to the table made me so uncomfortable. The waitress did the same every time . I just wanted to eat and talk to my wife in peace, and not hover over my food while he's talking. Should have gave some distance and not so close . If I have a problem with the food I will tell you ,so don't ask every five minutes how I'm liking the food . read more

My wife and I were visiting Texas and had come to the conclusion that people in the greater DFW area don't eat vegetables unless you count french fries (I'm just kidding - not kidding). We were desperate for something other than salad, and hopefully other than just steamed broccoli. Then we passed a Cotton Patch, looked it up on Yelp, checked the menu and . . . . VEGETABLES! I looked at the negative reviews but many of them seem to be during the time of Covid or related to takeout orders - so we decided to try it. We felt right at home. The waitress called me "baby" and "Darlin'" The food was excellent. The service quick. The manager came by twice to make sure everything was good. The Chicken Fried Steak was excellent - it tasted like it was fresh breaded and it definitely was real meat, not ground or chopped. The fried okra was excellent, the green beans could have used more seasoning and perhaps some bacon or fat back but they were good. The garlic mashed potatoes were well done, with skins and not over powered with garlic. The squash casserole had sugar in it -- and I'm not used to having it sweet, but perhaps that's a Texas thing. It was good anyway :-). I will absolutely come back if in the area. read more

Everything here is excellent. From service to food to comfort of the booths. We had chicken fried steak and pork chops. Yummy!! Friendly server Food was fresh. Would definitely stop here again if in the area read more

I received a response about how I needed to click on link to get in touch with them but it didn't work. So now I'm really disappointed. I'm not looking for free food just want things to be right if I decide to ever revisit again. I know everyone has a bad day but be honest about wanting to hear our opinions. read more

I called the number on their website, placed an entire $60 order got to the restaurant and was told they didn't even have my order? Then said the "call center must've placed the order at our Rockwall location" after they specifically asked me the one on fm 544. Took 2 hours to get my families dinner when I called ahead? Customer service was terrible, tried to make me feel like I was wrong and didn't even place an order. Manager said he was sorry and asked if I would like an ice water LMAO read more

My new favorite spot.. My family and I have been to this establishment 3 times and each time they deliver either excellence! The food is always flavorful and let's talk about those corn bread skillet !!! You must get there early because they do run out and that's how's you know they are good. The service is always warm and the staff is top tier. The ambient is family oriented. My kids love their kids meal. Price is adequate and portions are plenty. Definitely will be back. read more

Came here for lunch the other day and had a great experience. We were seated right away. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly. We got some yummy rolls to start off with. I had the tilapia with green beans and Mac and cheese. Food came out hot. They gave me a very good portion of fish. I wish I would have taken a picture, but I was too focused on eating. read more

Food always good. Server Jeremy is the BEST. Always clean and comfortable. Did'nt care for the music choice. Large food choices.

Luci helped us out a lot and made sure our dining experience was perfect. she was very kind and went out of her way to make us happy.

Chicken fried chicken is my go to the gravy can go on everything. I haven't ran into a side that I haven't like!

Sadly, with the closing of cafeterias, most of us older folks are left with fewer choices for traditional comfort classics without the loud irritating noise of the sports bar atmosphere. Cotton Patch delivers with several reasonably priced tasty menu choices combined with good friendly service. read more

It's been forever since I've been to a Cotton Patch restaurant. But my mom & I were shopping at TJMaxx nearby and decided to try it for lunch. The $7.99 lunch specials are really a great deal. We both got the steak fingers and they were hand breaded and tender. They come with 2 sides and rolls. My baked potato was really good. Our server was nice and helpful. The restaurant was clean. I'd definitely go back. read more

Cotton Patch Cafe - Steak Finger lunch special - Southern Near Me - Wylie, Texas

First and last visit! Stopped in for a quick lunch. Two orders chicken strips and one ordered a burger... not very busy and still took about 25 minutes to get our food. One of us never got our salad. The chicken strips and burger were both dried out. Fries soggy, baked potato not feeling cooked, and Mac and Cheese was massive disappointment. Ordered BBQ sauce, ranch, and sweet chili sauce at the time we placed our food order. Only ketchup arrived. Told the person who delivered our food about that and the missing salad and she never came back. Told our primary server when we finally saw her an received sauces about two minutes before we finished eating. She did offer to replace the salad at this point but didn't want to bother at that point. No attempt to offer discount or speak to manager though we clearly didn't have a good experience. Country music was aggravating my teenager the entire time, lol. Mark this spot off your list if you want decent food and service! read more

I hadn't been to this franchise in a while because of a bad experience last time I treated my great aunt but a friend insisted they loved it so I brought the little one to try again. Seating process was great, they we're doing well COVID wise, but it took 20 minutes from the time we we're seated for our server Joseph to take our order/even acknowledge us. The hostess noticed and had to go get him as my hungry child started Questioning where her food was. This irritated me as he had checked in on all the table's around us. Once he finally took our order it took almost another 30 minutes for our food to come out to the point I had to ask the manager over and bring it to his attention. He apologized and our food came quickly but his nonchalant attitude is why his employee felt ok with giving us this treatment in the first place. Planned to order more but didn't want to spend any more money considering times are hard and I'm going to spend it in places that deserve it. Sucks because the food and drink's we're amazing. Reminded me why I hadn't been in years. read more

We have eaten at several Cotton Patch Cafe's in the past. First time at this one. We ordered Online and picked up. The server who brought our food out to the car was very kind. However, the order was messed up. We quickly looked at noticed a couple things missing right away. She offered to take it back inside and check it for us. Husband said to me: I have an idea: Check it BEFORE we bring it out! Like DUH. She brought it back out with the two items included now. We drive home. Sit down to eat and there as only FOUR shrimp, not the 8 I ordered (and charged for the 8, yet too far away to go back and have them "check it" and fix it AGAIN), and there was ZERO gravy on the mashed potatoes I ordered. They had mishandled the deliver bag, so there was wet liquid stuff all over our food container, and bottom of paper bag. Not a good first impression, when the order is totally messed up - and when that messed up order SHOULD HAVE been DOUBLE CHECKED BEFORE they ever brought it out to the car. Bad business. Would not recommend. I give them TWO STARS because the food, as usual for COC, tasted good. Service was kind but quite faulty. (Should have thought to take photo of my food before I finished it.) read more

Cotton Patch Cafe - Catfish filet and 4, instead of 8, shrimp. - Southern Near Me - Wylie, Texas

Cotton Patch never disappoints. My older aunt and Mother love coming here for the delicious, home cooked meals. I enjoy taking them once per month. The staff, manager are all very friendly and accommodate all your needs. Refilling the drinks, bringing you more of those freshly baked yeast rolls with a side of butter that melts on hot roll and awakens your taste buds to great memories of grandma's cooking. The rolls are epic and I would be satisfied just eating them. Fortunately, the menu items are just as good. I ordered CFS with okra and roasted corn. The CFS was the best I've had for my short time in TX. The breading, texture and steak are above par. Seasoned to perfection with a crispy outside batter and tender beef inside. Amazing and highly recommend you try-I got the junior. My aunt ordered the combo shrimp and fish platter with lots of delicious fish and giant shrimp morsels battered to perfection. She enjoyed the crisp batter and tender, delicious shrimp. I definitely cannot wait to go back to order CFC and that Dr. Pepper cake. If you're looking for delicious, down home cooking-this is the place. Host's are sweet and plenty of seating available. Go now and help this restaurant stay busy. It deserves to last awhile and they offer delicious meal specials each month. I have eaten the maple salmon -very good. Please go, keep them busy-I want to savor and try more menu items. Hi today or pick up to go. Bar is available with Sports TV and the best fried green tomatoes. Go and enjoy. read more
