Good Day Cafe - Another good day at good day cafe. Love this place and the staff. Had yummy mango cake today for dessert. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I just ate here with my family and it was one of the best breakfasts I've had in recent memory. I'm from San Antonio and I've never been to a place this good. Our server Thalia was super nice and attentive. The iced tea was cold and sweet. I ordered the fiesta skillet with a biscuit and gravy and it was delicious. The biscuits were huge and fluffy yet also light. The skillet was packed with eggs, hashbrowns, peppers, onions, cheese and chorizo. 5/5 stars, will definitely come again. Apparently they were short on waitstaff but I didn't even notice because the food arrived pretty quickly. Awesome experience! read more

Good Day Cafe - Fiesta Skillet with amazing biscuits and gravy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Food was over priced for what it is. It's VERY bland. Zero seasoning. I added salt and pepper and that didn't even help. There is also an additional charge on top of the price for anything with eggs. Do yourself a favor and eat quality food for the same price at Meehans. Heck to be honest Waffle House or IHOP is better taste and price. I spent 15 on a chicken Brie sandwich with apple slaw and a side at Meehans that was off the charts. This place charged more for poor service, the staff run you over while you're trying to go to the bathroom or go to pay. They don't even apologize for it either. Then 52 dollars for 2 omelets and kids meal. Coffee and tea that my 11 year old could have made taste better. No thank you! read more

A very pleasant change of my normal breakfast routine. Good food and very nice people.

Great place to stop if you are in the area.. large menu for lunch and breakfast items.. prices good coffee is fair service excellent not a greasy spoon good home cooking though read more

I was looking for a place for brunch on Father's Day and found this gem on yelp! The wait wasn't long at all and the food was amazing! I was very surprised at the bang that you get for your buck! But the one thing that blew my mind was their chicken fried steak. The steak was so good and I've never had anything like it. Their potions are big too! This is must try! read more

Went here on a Saturday morning, the money was massive and the waitress and hostess were very friendly. I got a Chipotle burger with hash browns, it came out fast and was massive, my friend got some Skillet and it to was huge. The burger and hash browns were very good and filling, the bill was cheap even with tip. I'll definitely be going back. read more

Good Day Cafe - Burger and Hash browns, really good - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Good day cafe is now our favorite place to eat Saturday and Sunday breakfast. The chicken and waffles are my husbands choice very time. I enjoy the chicken fried steak scramble skillet. It's food for families and even medium sized groups. Call in advance and get placed on the waitlist. There is always one. Service is great and the food is great to match. read more

I saw a sign in your window today offering your Nov. 11 Veterans Day special of Free Meal IN uniform, 50 percent off NOT IN uniform. My ethical quandary is why you would make a difference by whether the veteran was in uniform or not. As I see it, a person that defended the right for you to make that decision, is the same in or out of uniform. I know a number of veterans and I don't believe any of them still has a uniform let alone one that still fits. Every veteran has proof of service. So I found your decision to separate those that served and defended our country pretty insulting, and is why I will not recommend. read more

The food was amazing! I had one of the best chicken fried steaks I've ever had. My wife ordered a breakfast stacked enchilada with chorizo the guy said it was one of their staple items... man that was amazing! Salsa, chorizo, refried beans, egg and avacado. The staff was friendly. Great place!! Will definitely stop again next time in town! read more

Let me start by saying, I was not please that my friends and I had to wait over an hour for our food! I understand it's Sunday and it's normally busy at that time. But our waiter did not let us know it was going to be that long! A table came right after us and got their food before us! I ordered Nutella crepes and it came out cold and soggy.. I really didn't want to bother our server because I was hungry and I honestly didn't want to wait for our server to do something about it. My friend was mad for me that it was cold and soggy.. so she complained. When she told our server, she told us it's because of the "Syrup" but it doesn't explained why my food was cold. Overall our meal was decent, maybe because I'm not a big fan of breakfast. It all taste the same to me. But the meal is just too heavy for me. And the coffee was water down! It did NOT taste like coffee!! Honestly, the only reason I gave it a two stars because we were seated within 10 minutes even how busy it was. And the food was okay! It's not plain, it's better than a regular breakfast! read more

Went today (Mothers day) at 11:30. 30 minute wait was quite acceptable. Seated within 30 minutes. We had 3 adults and a 7 year old. The place was hopping. The service was a little erratic, but we sympathized realizing they were being slammed. You know what comes next right? Wrong! The food was amazing. We had corn beef hash and eggs, breakfast burrito, fajita skillet and a Belgin waffle. Everyone raved about thier meal! I couldn't believe how good all the meals were, given the place was packed. I met an elderly gentlemen and his bride sitting next to us. He had on his old Army uniform, a master Sargent insignia and more medals than I could identify. He enlisted at 19. A Vietnam vet, he told me an amazing story, captivating us. We paid for his and his wife's brunch to show gratitude, and the fact the man wore his full dress uniform to honor his wife, kids, 10 great grandchildren and.16 grand children. We were blown away. Best mothers day ever! read more

Friendly staff. Our breakfast meal for four came out hot and fresh. Migas, blueberry pancakes, kids breakfast and a favorite breakfast. Nice thick bacon. Everyone enjoyed their meal. My 8yr old cleaned his plate - thats a win! read more

Nice quiet spot. Staff is friendly and food was in my opinion pretty good and affordable for all the food we got.

This place has excellent service!! We went during a slow period (3pm) and our waitress (I didn't get her name) was amazing and was constantly checking on us and making sure we were satisfied. Chips and salsa came before the food, and the salsa was some of the best I've ever had. The food came promptly and was delicious with big portions. The reasoning behind my 4 not being a 5 is that food although very good could have been seasoned more. Overall, the atmosphere is very welcoming and the food is tasty!! We'll definitely be back(-: read more

This is the first bad review I have ever written.They did not open on time. If you advertise BREAKFAST and you SAY you open at 8am....then open at 8am. We were not greeted and were merely waved toward a table. Staff not friendly or helpful. Server pointed at a QR code (no thanks, enough places sell my info already) instead of getting us menus. I GET they is a "virus" but this far into it you should have menus. Walked out. Will never return. read more

Love going to breakfast here when I visit my big brother. Omelette s are big enough to share. Biscuits are as good as homemade and they serve a good cup of coffee, neither bitter nor weak, just right! read more

Great breakfast spot food is delicious and well prepared! Staff are friendly and cordial!

This was a great place to eat. The food came out fresh, delicious and portion size was more than enough! The service was excellent.

This is my first time at this location. The staff was super friendly , and the atmosphere was great. I ordered the chicken fried chicken with diced potatoes. My friend had an omelet and he liked it too. I would recommend this place and the other location in Grand Prairie. read more

Good Day is the best brunch spot in the area. I usually like to get a breakfast skillet, so I base my rating on how well this is executed in any restaurant I chose. I'll have to say it's always consistently excellent and I've tried several types on the menu. My husband usually gets the Eggs Benedict or just steak and eggs. We have never left disappointed with the food or service! read more

A little busy when we went but the food is worth it. The place is a little old but then again the food makes up for it. Very big menu to choose from read more

We eat at Good Day quite a lot. Today I had meeting and we went there for lunch. I wasn't sure that could handle that many (11) at one table but Gloria did an awesome job of taking care of us. My food was excellent as usual and the rest of the party seem to like what they were served. We did call and they had a table set up for us. read more

Food never disappoints when I order with Uber eats. However please make sure the order are done correctly 3rd time I get a different drink and 2nd time I get gravy when I did not ask for it. read more

Huge menu. Authentic TX dishes. Large portions and fair prices. Great atmosphere for Dallas visitors.

I've held off on writing my review so I could give this mom and pop spot another chance. Honestly, two stars is all I can give based on my two experiences. The very first time I came in , it looked like a ghost town. Seriously I couldn't even find a worker to seat us so we just sat down ourselves and eventually somebody came by to drop off menus. The service that time was great the lady was sweet and attentive and made sure that she checked on us quite often. The food on the other hand was very mediocre. They have a huge menu so I can't even begin to fathom how much of that is pre-made and reheated when it's ordered. Fortunately enough for us we had breakfast and most everything tasted fresh. I will commend them on their hotcakes and huge biscuits that are just perfect and fluffy. My second experience coming in with the same companion was also for breakfast. We were greeted by a young man, probably of high school age, as we walked in but not very friendly. He was more interested in being on his phone. No problem- I figured you don't want to be here on a Saturday morning and you probably got dragged in here by your mom who either works here or owns the place- so no big deal. The server was very confused when we asked questions about menu items and didnt really seem to care whenever I poured the little containers of coffee creamer into my coffee and it curdled. 3 times we did the dance with me pouring spoiled coffee creamer into my cup, requesting a new cup of coffee and creamer, and somehow all of it was curdled. I finally gave up and asked for a glass of water. When my companions food came out, his omelette was wrong and I didn't get a plate. When I inquired how much longer it would take for my crepe I was told "All I have to do is put it in the microwave and assemble it." Ummm.. what? Turns out they pre make the crepes, just reheat them, then smear all the toppings inside and roll it up. It was the thickest crepe I've ever eaten, and even then because it has been reheated it was very rubbery. The strawberries on top were the canned ones swimming in syrup- not fresh which was very disappointing. Needless to say I haven't been back and neither has my companion. Maybe one day when I'm feeling adventurous I'll stop by and see if they've gotten their act together. read more

We went on Sunday morning & it was very busy of course. When we were seated the table was dirty & the chairs had liquid & food in them. Our food came out & it was delicious. I would have given 5 stars but even when your that busy tables need to be cleaned. My daughters pants were stained on the back of her leg from whatever was in the chair. She had to go home & change before going to work. read more

I went into this place not expecting a lot and i came out very satisfied. I was in the mood for a good country biscuit so hop wasn't an option and since i was in mansfield cracker barrel was too far for me to travel. I pulled out my phone and searched yelp and came up with this place. After reading a really bad review i figured id try the place anyway because i saw a pic of the biscuit and thats what i wanted. I walked in and the place was cool and quiet not much of a crowd but its a tuesday morning so i wasn't expecting to wait anyway. I was greeted at the hostess counter than i noticed the sign to seat myself so i did. The waitress came by shortly and took my order. She was very friendly and helpful because i originally ordered two biscuits and the pancake platter and she looked and asked if i was sure i wanted two she quickly suggested one and said she would bring another if i was still hungry. Once my food came out i quickly found out why she had that look on her face when i asked for two. The pancakes and biscuit was huge i wasn't expecting monster pancakes judging from the previous yelp pics the pancakes looked to me small saucer size but they were far from it. I seriously over ate but it was worth it and the price can't be beat. They give you a big country breakfast for a fair price. Next time i visit ill try the omelette cause they were huge too. read more

Good Day Cafe - Did not expect this much food for 8.99 - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Good location. Nice clean breakfast place. Service kinda slow but friendly enough. Good breakfast. I had the "green eggs" breakfast. Very tasty and a good serving of food for the price. Coffee cup ran empty a couple of times. No cream offered with the coffee. It was "good" but not great. Filled the need. Met my requirements but nothing really fantastic. The cashier lady was very nice. The rest of the servers could learn a thing or two about smiling and being friendly from her. read more

This an update to my 2010 review as I feel it no longer applies here today. Service remains attentive If a little scatters-brained, but the food quality has dropped significantly. Pancakes were rubbery and cold, like they have been sitting around all morning in a warming tray. My skillet was mostly hash browns with few of the other ingredients it included, and my breakfast companions breakfasts were equally sparse on ingredients (two complained it was cold too). And for some reason, no one can be bothered to man the check out booth so customers line up to pay before leaving. This place appears to be slowly losing its grip. Shame, it used to be great. read more

The steak and eggs are good, the steak even better, yes I love MEAT... savory and perfect breakfast meal. Your coffee mug will never be empty. Staff is friendly and nice, service is great, pricing is low and meals are large. The place seems small from the outside but is actually quite spacious with a calm and clean ambiance. read more

Pretty good, we would definitely come back. The chicken fried chicken is incredible, very tender and moist and seasoned perfectly. I had the breakfast bowl. The country gravy is kinda run of the mill, nothing to write home about, but it does the trick. Biscuits were tasty, too. My husband had the corned beef hash and loved it. It's the traditional kind, possibly out of a can, but he doesn't like it when places go all fancy and try to doctor up the hash. Leave the hash alone! Eggs were cooked to perfection per our order. Super sweet service, and the food came out fast and hot. If we lived closer, we would come more often for breakfast. My only complaint was loud news stations on the TV talking about negative or sad stuff, as the news always does. But I get that some people enjoy watching TV while they eat. I'm just not one of them. read more

Was referred here and told that they had great (and plentiful!) food for great prices. I wasn't disappointed either. My eating partner ordered the fajita platter and I ordered a Denver omelette. Wait time was average. Not too fast but not a terribly long time either. There were other patrons in the establishment as well but we weren't in a rush. We were given our drinks along with chips and salsa which I think is sort of strange for a cafe (I expected a variety of breads or rolls) but no big deal. We nibbled on them while we waited for our food. Our meals arrived and they were both pretty great. My omelette and hashbrowns were big enough to cover the width of the oval plate. Toast was normal white toasted bread with butter on one side. No mixed berry jelly available but they did have strawberry, grape, and peach jelly packs. My friend really enjoyed the fact that his rice that came with his fajitas was actually soft and fluffy instead of the hard and gritty Mexican rice that you would normally get at other places. Fajitas were still sizzling even minutes after they arrived. I was pretty full after the omelette and hashbrowns and couldn't finish my toast. We were offered drinks to go which I thought was really kind of them. Paid our check and went on our way. Soon after getting back home, my eating partner noticed that he had left his keys at the restaurant. At this point, it was about 5 minutes before closing time. We headed back and arrived right after they closed but they had someone on staff stay and hold onto our keys because he knew that we "couldn't have gone far without them". Really super nice! We will be back. :) I just wish that they would extend their hours a little bit for afternoon people like us. read more

The chicken fried steak is the best in this area. The green bean are very tasty. The waitstaff are very friendly and helpful.

We have heard good things about Good Day Cafe at least when it comes to breakfast. So we tried them out. Not bad we ate late on Sunday about at 1230 pm. They serve breakfast all day. That is good. No wait but it a little small and they were full. The food was good I had the migas eggs with hash-browns for 6.99. It should have come with bacon. But that was extra for 2.50. I did not like that seemed a bit pricey. The portion was good and the bacon was tasty. My partner had a waffle and eggs with bacon. Very standard fare it was also good. The problem was the service. Not good. the waitress could not remember anything after she walks away from you. Example more water, syrup for waffles. I had to get up and get them after waiting awhile. I'm not being picky but the service was poor. The people next us had there order forgot. I would have asked for the manager but they seemed ok with it. Then they forgot there toast. There are other places I like better so I will not rush back but I would try them again. If someone wanted to go there. Plus there was this balloon animal guy walking around he got on our nerves. Kids chasing him down and all. Go stand in the corner somewhere away for the people eating. read more
