My sister got an iced toffee latte and I got a boring decaf black coffee. (Hahah) I was wondering if I was actually poured decaf because while sipping it in the thrift shop, I felt REALLY jittery. Like... bad. It was good and strong but I don't know if it was decaf. My sister liked her drink. Price: I think my sister paid $8-something for both. Hers was $6+. I don't get fancy coffee much so I don't know if that's normal or whatnot.

While traveling home from Branson, we were looking for a different place to eat. Tater Patch popped…read moreup on my phone and we also started seeing signs along the highway. We love a good stuffed potato so the fact that they offered several varieties definitely made our decision easy. They have a rather large parking lot, which was great. You walk in and you have the bar side on your left end tables on your right. If you go through the center area there's a good size patio outback. It was definitely your typical bar atmosphere. Looked like possibly they had bands that played at night.The waitresses were very friendly and super busy. I opted to get the cheeseburger tater. It had ground beef, melted, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, and onion. It came sort of deconstructed and you just put what you want on it which made it nice. It was a really large potato, and the combination of everything was really good. I had never had a cheeseburger potato before. Besides potatoes, they had a good variety of other options you could choose from so if you don't like potatoes, don't worry you'll still find something you'll like here!

The food was average, but it took nearly an hour to get our waters and our order into the kitchen, and then another hour to get our food. One of the orders was incorrect, but we didn't want to wait another hour for them to remake it. There were 2 groups other patrons in the restaurant and one dude at the bar, so the restaurant was not packed. There was no excuse for the poor service, inaccurate order, and slow kitchen.

I had to go down the hallway to find them to get the rest of my order. They were in a side room staring at their phones. Then when I asked about the size of the coffee drink she huffed and puffed and rolled her eyes at me. And never apologized for getting the order wrong. It was weird and I felt like a burden to them.

The space is small and offers a few cafe tables if you choose to dine in. The menu consists of a good variety sandwiches and wraps. They offer a combo including a sandwich or wrap, side, and cupcake. I went with chicken salad sandwich and chips. It's the fancy kind with dried cranberries and slivered almonds. I took several cupcakes home to share and try with family. My favorite was the hummingbird cake. I haven't had this in such a long time. They did a great job with this one. The cake is perfectly moist with a generous dollop of cream cheese frosting. We tried a few other flavors and found them all to be delicious. If cupcakes aren't your jam, they offer a wide variety of sweet treats. There's a reasonably sized coffee as well. The team is friendly, the space while small is comfortable and quaint, and the food is delicious.

Seated immediately, the server took our drink order as we were sitting down and had those out to us right away. Orders were taken in a timely fashion and the food came out super fast. Everything was hot, generously portioned, and put together as decently as any other ihop. The server brought me a container of glazed strawberries, without asking, when she noticed it was fresh strawberries on my waffle, in case I preferred the glazed (the fresh were perfectly fine with me, but I appreciated the extra effort). Checks and to go boxes came out not long after it was obvious we were all done eating. The one thing I didn't like was that the checks are paid on the tablet, which is fine, but a much higher tip amount was defaulted on the total. We caught it and did change it to 20-25%. Oh, and weirdly, they only have 1 waffle iron, lol. So if you all order waffles, that'll come out 1 at a time. It was fine, they were quick succession. I ate here multiple times in the past when it was Dottie's. As much as I hate to admit that a commercial chain was better than the old local place, it really was.

Today is the first time I came into this restaurant and there was more than two or three other tables with patrons dining. The cook has always made my food come out to my liking, never had any issues with overcooked or undercooked food. This has been by far the best Denny's I have ever visited.The food is phenomenal. exceedingly better than IHOP in Rolla. IHOP is overrated. The food is usually overcooked dry or cold. It is usually busy and chaotic , and the cleanliness is something left to be desired and the food is really not worth the cost. Basically I feel like I paid for the name of just eating. at IHOP. I am so surprised that this Denny's is not overrun by the public. It's definitely a hidden gem. Must come out and dine here.

Passing by and looked for a place that my picky eater would love…read more I flinched coming in, because the lobby reeked like cigarette smoke, but luckily the dining room looked and smelled clean. Cute light fixtures over the tables, and all of the diffusers in the ceiling were spotless. The bathroom did look a little bit shabby and dated compared to the dining room, and bad tile and grout work made weird puddles instead of letting mop water drain properly. But everything in there was clean (and smelled good), so no shame on the staff. Host and server were super friendly. Our server checked in just the right amount. I got the super bird and my son got pancakes with butter (he's not into syrup). I hadn't had a super bird since college. It was pretty good. Crispy grilled bread, turkey, tomato, cheese, whatever else. The tomato slices looked like they came from a good fruit, not mushy. In the fruit bowl (99¢ upcharge from the fries), the bananas were perfectly ripe, and so were the grapes. The cantaloupe and strawberries were a little underripe, but I just sprinkled them with a packet of Splenda and let them sit while I ate my sandwich and it worked out great. It's Denny's. Like $18 for our meal, plus tip. I'd come back. You know what you're getting here.
