From the moment we walked through the front doors, it was clear this wasn't going to be just another meal out. While the food was exceptional, it was the genuine warmth and hospitality that truly set this experience apart. ​In a world where service can often feel transactional or rushed, the staff here treated us with a level of care that you usually only find at a Sunday dinner with relatives. They didn't just take our order; they engaged with us, remembered the small details of our preferences, and made sure every person at the table felt seen and welcomed. read more

Hands down the worst experience I've ever had at any restaurant. We waited over an hour to get our food and it wasn't even correct and to make matters worse they still made us pay. never coming back. Don't waste your money. read more

Huddle House not great. Went with family was not a big fan of their food. Service was slow. 3 people were working. read more

Some of the worst service I have had. Had to ask a different waitress for condiments cause ours kept forgetting and never got part of my order even after asking multiple waitresses multiple times. I witnessed other people getting what I was waiting on several times even though they ordered after us. read more

I have watched the prices at HH go up between 50% to 100% over the past 3 years. BUT - when they raised the price of a cup of coffee to $3.00, that was the last straw. I will redeem my rewards and never darken their door again. Enough is enough. read more

We were seated in the restaurant and the place smelled very foul. When we sat down and were given our drinks, at least 6 people from a table of ten had something in their drink, or had a barely washed cup. Not to mention the drinks were beyond flavorless. Looking at the restaurant, the seats, tables and floors were covered with crumbs and dust, hinting that the restaurant is not properly cleaned. The food we payed for was not well. The hash browns were burnt on one side and uncooked on the other. The "fresh" fruit was clearly brown and slimy. The pancakes had no flavor, and someone even found numerous hair strands in their food. The quality of the food overall did not even reach mediocracy, and when we asked for refunds or to have our grossly prepared food sent back, their servers responded with poor attitudes. read more

A great "hole in the wall" place, as they say. Don't be fooled by the cooks running around, *some of* the waitresses looking like they're on *insert hard drug here*, or the fact that it might seem like any old down-south diner-- this place has great food. I always get the MVP Breakfast, and you can't go wrong with it. A golden pancake, 3 pieces of bacon or sausage, hashbrowns, eggs, and toast, (choice of biscuits and gravy or grits and toast), but I always substitute the grits and toast for double toast). The food is always out in 10-14 minutes from the time of ordering, and in the 10+ times of going to this Huddle House location, there has only been one or two times that my food wasn't great-- one of which times my pancake was not fully cooked on the inside. Even then, the cook did not seem annoyed. He took it back personally and made me another one, which was great. The Huddle Burger is also a great choice, which goes to show that breakfast or dinner is a safe choice here. All in all, the Cape Girardeau Huddle House is a great location to come at any time of the day for a great breakfast, lunch, or dinner. read more

Road tripping across this great land, the family and I decided to Dunkin here for a late breakfast. Expecting Denny's, we were actually pleasantly surprised, especially after reading several marginal reviews of this chain restaurant. Prices were pretty reasonable, and big portions kept everyone at the table happy. Free waffle Wednesday was a nice bonus... For every six bucks you spend, you get a free waffle. Our server was patient, attentive to the kids, and expeditious. Nothing fancy about this placement on everything arrived hot, smothered in country gravy, and with that little bit of southern flair that you would expect here, and not in Seattle. Order an iced tea, and you'll field a question from the server, "regular or sweet tea?" Granted, for a restaurant that never closes, I can see that this place might be a different experience around the witching hour after the bars close, but for a SoCal family just passing through, it was positive all around. read more

The prices are great. The food is good diner food. I did receive pretty terrible service at this location. The other locations have great employees! The chili is terrific. They have awesome specials, like biscuits and gravy for just a couple of bucks. I usually get an omelet with chili, cheese and onions (not on the menu, but it is fantastic). read more

Really wanted pancakes for breakfast, myself, wife and son had breakfast here and was disappointed when I learned they didn't have pancakes. Server told me they didn't have pancakes yesterday or today.. WHY??? So you run out of pancakes fixings, you go get the fixings before the next days breakfast, but no.. had biscuits and gravy. Biscuit was hard as a rock, but the gravy was good..disappointing. read more

Took to long on my order. Order was wrong. Waitress was none attached to her job and didn't try

The night shift is absolutely fantastic. They are always fast and clean and kind. Nabila can run this place like no other. Seriously, if she isn't there, it's not worth going. Day shift is an absolute train wreck. The place is always disgusting, slow, and careless. My last visit was Thanksgiving day because they were the only place open after I got off work besides McDonald's. 20 minutes to get my drink order, another 15 for food order. People who arrived after my partner and I had already finished eating and left even though we had the same server. After having waited for 50 minutes since walking in the door, a roach runs across the table. I bring it to management's attention, all they did was say "sorry" and turn back towards doing dishes. Not sure if or when I'll be back read more

So frustrating I'd give zero stars if I could. This was my first ever time at any Huddle House, We went today and it was really busy. No worries it's Sunday after church so I get that. I had my children with me who are all under 6. I got 3 kids meals and an omelette and juice. We waited a really really long time, no worries again it's busy I get that. A few minutes into getting our meal my 4 year old needed to use the restroom. I walked him to the bathroom and took everything one work me because kids can't be left unattended at a table. We were not gone but 3 minutes and when we got back to the table a different waitress was clearing our table. Our full plates of food were taken away, my juice was still full. She did apologize profusely which I appreciated, and offered to put in a new order of food for us but at that point we had already been waiting so long that I couldn't wrangle hungry kids for another 25 minutes. I totally get accidents happen, and I told her we would just go. I was still charged $57.00 for the food. Full price for food that we didn't eat because it got taken away. When I complained to my waitress who saw everything, and she took off 20% in what world is this acceptable service?! I still paid $38 plus tip for food we took 3 whole bites of. I wasn't going to be the jerk who argues with a teenager behind the register but I'm so disappointed with this service. Maybe this is on me for having to leave my table for a few minutes to let my child use the restroom but I will not be back ever. read more

The Huddle House in Cape Girardeau is great! I showed up at 2 in the morning and got good food and great service. Our server, Stephanie, and the other server were really busy, but they kept everything running smoothly. read more

Don't know how to get pictures on here, but, went to Huddle House in Cape this morning just to open my menu up to a cockroach and the egg sac it just had Never will go back again!!!! NASTY read more

Location / Atmosphere - A typical breakfast diner. Very friendly staff. We happened to come-in on one for the first sunny Sundays of the year. Apparently there were several events in the area as well. Busy morning for this Huddle House. Every seat in the house was full. Food / Beverage - Everything on the menu sounded excellent. Everything that we had was cooked well. No problems with the food or beverage. Service - Over and above the crowd, we had to wait under 5 minutes for a table. Our food order took a bit longer given the crowd. Although the staff kept us happy with conversation and kept the coffee flowing. They were even pologetic for the wait as we went to pay and were leaving. In summary - Very pleasant meal and start to a day of travel. Suggest you stop in when in the area. read more

What can I say it sucks... Waited 30 + Minutes for eggs French toast,waffle and bacon, it was all served cold ...... As a truck driver I have some rough dining experiences but this has made its way to the top of the list never again will I pay these folks for terrible experience...... read more

45 min wait for food. Comes out cold. Server doesn't apologize and asks if we'd like it microwaved or redone. Don't want to wait another 45 min for less than mediocre food so we left. Do yourself a favor and go to any other place -- hell a McDonald's is 100x better read more

Not our first time here. Came on a Sunday at 11:30. Expected it to be busy. Took a while for a server to come to our table. We were ready to order. They were out of pancakes, which seems to be the case more often than not. We placed our order. And waited over an hour for our food. When our food finally came, both of our cheeseburgers were missing cheese and the lettuce for mine was just a piece of the core. The server did bring a cold slice of cheese to put on my burger. I understand being busy and short staffed but there was no communication at any point. Very disappointing read more

Maybe I'm getting old and crotchety but waiting 45 minutes to an hour for food and then it coming out ice cold is not my idea of a great meal. There were so many tables that were waiting on food, asking their waitress to check on their food that it was ridiculous! We sent back the plate that was cold and ask them to remake it. Two seconds later the waitress brought back the plate of food and said I just went ahead and microwaved it for you. Um no.....either re make it or take it off my bill. Obviously they were not interested in re making it as she quickly brought the check out and had subtracted the dish from the bill. I went to pay the bill and use my HH rewards app only to be told they aren't set up for that there. I got the information about the app from THIS location!!! As we were leaving our waitress was telling a table next to us (who was complaining about the wait) that our food was messed up which is what made theirs take so long. I don't think so!! ‍ Upon leaving the restaurant we see that they have now posted a sign on the door. Must of had several dissatisfied customers!! It will be a while before I give them a second chance! read more

Server Baylee should be advised to wear a mask properly and not under her chin. Especially when handling food and talking while handling. Servers should be made aware of the science that when talking droplets are released and could land on food. If a mask is worn properly this can be avoided. I hate the feeling of worrying about my food being contaminated with COVID because my server was not considerate. The wait is longer then it should have been and the staff seemed to be having a good old time talking and laughing behind the counter instead of trying to get the orders out. The place wasn't that busy at the time. I don't think I would come here again. read more

I couldn't make it inside. Everybody and everything was grossing me out. From the sweaty cooks touching their faces to the dirty waitresses coming from outside and going straight to the register without washing her hands and then to a customer and then to some food. Horrible. Y'all need to fix this shit. No mask no sanitation no nothing. read more

This huddle house always has really great service. The food has been okay, but last night they really hit it out of the ballpark. We sat down, our waitress came right over and took our order. We got our food within 10 minutes. And it was the best burger I've ever had from there. It was juicy and messy and cooked perfectly. The tater tots were soft on the inside with the a nice golden crunch on the outside. read more

First time I ever had eggs over easy served extra crispy. Its Huddle house. Madonna and Billy Joel are the music. Service is good. Coffee is not so good. It feels sad and old here at 3 A.M. Stop eating after the first couple of bites because no matter how many times you put that fork in your mouth, the food isn't gonna get any better. read more

If I could post less than 1 star, I would have. Not that busy, but folks near us waited over an hour. We hit the hour mark & decided to leave. Paid for the coffees & went elsewhere. Filthy. Won't be going back. Normally, these places are ok when traveling, but this blew a huge hole in our day. Time wasted. read more

Excellent. We go there often. Service can be a little slow at times but they are understaffed like everyone else.

Been waiting over 45 min for out food. Kinda leery about eating the food they are not the cleanest

If I could give Huddle House something less than one star I would. Not only was the weight way too long and the food cold, the restaurant was filthy, windows dirty, lots of flies and the floor was worse than an old theater. read more

Service was bad, food was terrible and price was so-so.Management needs to Huddle Up with staff and get some friendlier service in here and get the cooks to start Blitzing the meals so we don't have to wait 1 1/2 hours for below ave food. Date of visit 10/23/17 read more

Horrible service with horrible food. Waited 45 minutes for cold food and when we let our "server" if you could call her that know she asked if we'd like it microwaved. She never apologized and another server actually came over and said she was sorry about our experience. We were right next to the kitchen and heard them talking badly about us because we were stating to ourselves how we're hungry. Left without eating and went to McDonald's. Save yourself an hour and go anywhere else. read more

I ordered a plain burger (with no seeds on the bun because I'm highly allergic) with fries and they still have me seeds so I said could they give me a different burger and they charged me for 2 burgers !!

NEVER WILL GO THERE AGAIN!!!! read more

Grease, Grease, and More Grease. If you like eatting grease, then please eat here. The cooks and waitresses were more interested in having a good conversation between themselves instead of checking on the customers. I left a !5% tip, but I will never eat here again. read more

Absolute joke of a restaurant. The service was horrible... sat there for 20 min and never was served. I don't understand why business owners hire employees who are incapable of doing a very simple job. Highly suggest avoiding this establishment... I even would like to call for an audit of the place and the immediate closure read more

Their music is dope. Greatest huddle house of all time. Whoever was on the aux deserves a raise, seriously.

This is the most stunning five star dining establishment in southeast Missouri. I just have no teeth to explain the way I feel about you huddle house ... your waffles make me want to move out of my two bedroom and sleep beneath the fryers with the grease crinkling above me. I could use the waffles as my pillows and the hash browns as my danket (aka blanket). And don't even get me started about the chocolate milk..... THAT SHIT BOMB!!!! We saw the cow, he's in the back (with the horses) and his name is Damarius. The clock is ticking Cape Girardeau..... get a reservation in while you can!!!!! read more

This place sucks. Went with some people to get food during a non busy time and haven't been served for an hour. Needless to say I will be bringing my money to Waffle House next time I'm hungry in the morning. read more

A classic diner atmosphere, where you can see the cooks busily filling orders, this place will be sure to get you nostalgia feelings going. The waitress was very friendly, the simple breakfast food was delicious, and it was clean. For a yummy breakfast with little frills but great service, this is the place for you! read more

This is the worst establishment I have ever been to. We waited an hour and a half and then didn't even get our food. We watched people who got there an hour after us get their food and leave without getting any of our food. We ended up leaving because we asked our waitress multiple times about what was going on and when our food would be done and she just ignored us. Would not recommend to anyone ever. Horrible place, horrible service. read more

Came here at about 4am on a Friday, we were two of the four customers. There were two employees working. Both greeted us as soon as we walked in and were very friendly. The waitress always had my coffee and water filled and the cook was super fast at preparing our food. I had the MVP breakfast for 7.99, it tasted great and was super filling. read more
