Food portions solid - expected Open faced roast beef sandwich very good! Pasta salad fabulous for homemade with a flair. Only downside - needs some updating and need ceiling tiles. read more

This sit offers delicious food delivered with safety practices in mind. Really appreciated the "no masks, no service" posted on the door and watching the staff politely and calmly enforce the policy, offering to supply masks if necessary. We also watched staff thoroughly disinfect chairs and tables when folks left. Their homemade cinnamon roll was extra yummy, my husband said it was the best he ever tasted. Thanks Snuffy and staff! Kudos read more

The chicken fried steak here is WONDERFUL! We love breakfast at snuffy's! No matter what I order, I'm always happy with the food. The service is great too! read more

It is a little intimidating to have everyone stare at you when you walk in. I just busted for the bar. I was worried food would be bland based on the crowd. It was not. I had the Chisholm Steak- the house specialty. It was well seasoned. The place got busy and busy as the dinner hour proceeded. The phone ran constantly for to-go orders. That really says something in a small town. The building is not much to look at. The bar is odd too, but this is a restaurant, not a dive. It was a welcome respite from long drive. read more

Joe Snuffy's - a brick wall in a restaurant - American Near Me - Abilene, Kansas

4.5 stars. Food is a 3.9 service is a 5++ I had the chilsolm trail steak with baked beans and tater tots. It also came with a side salad. I asked for the steak medium rare and I got it. The server recommended the burger and I would have gotten it but I wasn't in the mood. This place deserves a 4.5 because of the service. Service makes all the difference. read more

Great people, great food, great price. What more do you want from a restaurant??? Anja snd Marty are the perfect hosts with highly attentive, friendly staff. read more

We love Joe Snuffys. Their staff is awesome and always friendly. They have great specials and the cost is great. You sure do get what you pay for!!! They are "family" to many people who go in to eat! If you want a recommendation, order the pork chops!! read more

The food was atypical...nothing special. The staff was very friendly, though we did happen to see one waiter pick his nose then proceed to roll silverware. That was pretty much our only complaint (which we did point out to the staff). Other than that, typical small town eatery. read more

Joe Snuffy's - Pint glass - American Near Me - Abilene, Kansas

Basic food done really well. Pork tenderloin sandwich is delicious. Apple pie was right out of the oven and delicious too. Service was great. Not far off the interstate and we'll worth the stop. read more

Great friendly service and food. Breakfast and lunch only though. Very affordable and clean.

First, if you are a tourist.. Go south of I-70 on Buckeye (exit 275) past the railroad tracks and turn right on first. If you get lost, just ask a local where Miller's Tavern used to be. Now for the food. Maybe some won't call it a five but in Abilene this place is a ten. My wife and I had the Philly Cheesesteak sandwich and it was one of the best we've ever had. The onion rings are made from real onions instead of the frozen stuff you find in most places. The baked beans are marvelous but the coleslaw had a bit too much vinegar for me. The next day my wife had Fried Chicken and I had a Hammer Burger. I won't bore you with how good it was but I can tell you they actually cook food here. You won't get the frozen mocrowaved barely edible stuff found in the north end of town. It's less than 2 miles south of I-70 and well worth the extra time. Enjoy. I sure did. read more

Ate dinner here after visiting Eisenhower museum. Good home cooking. Had Chicken fried steak and Santa Fe salad. Both were good. Onion rings were especially tasty. read more

Joe Snuffy's - Chicken fried steak. - American Near Me - Abilene, Kansas

See all

I used my YELP app to find this cafe. Service was very nice and attentive. I wanted to order the chicken friend steak but it is not hand battered and as a Texan I won't take a chance on that. Waitress said it really was good and many people order it. I ordered a burger instead. It was large and had a good flavor with a ton of tots. She recommended the peanut butter pie. It had a good flavor but they topped it with peanut butter reese pieces and the color seemed to melt off the candy. It had an ok flavor but visually was unappetizing. I plan to return and try some of the other meals I saw the patrons trying read more

Had the Hawaiian Burger with potato salad . Great. He had the Philly cheese steak with coleslaw. Both had onions aplenty. Service was friendly and fast. read more

We came here since my Dad knew about the place from a previous visit. Service was prompt and friendly. We both ordered the lunch special which was chicken fried steak; it was seasoned and cooked perfectly. We had mashed potatoes and green beans; the mashed potatoes were the real thing! I'd recommend this place if you want home style cooking. read more

Joe Snuffy's - Amazing home cooked meal! - American Near Me - Abilene, Kansas

For the area, this is a great diner compared to the fast food options. It was clean and the staff were friendly. We had the standard burger and fries, and it was good. I would recommend this to others passing through! read more

We stopped for an early dinner. Dining room was clean. No signs to indicate if we should seat ourselves, and the man behind the counter didn't acknowledge us....so that was awkward. Our server, Kimber, was fast, friendly, efficient and kept our drinks filled. Our table had: crispy chicken salad, bacon cheeseburger, patty melt and Wiener schnitzel dinner. All the food looked good and the portions were big. Sadly, the burger and Wiener schnitzel were dry. The salad was typical iceberg lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, bacon and cheese. No one at our table ate their fries. They weren't hot and crispy. They seem to have a steady business with a lot of to go orders. The menu has a big variety. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat there again....but that's because I'm a foodie lol. Sorry, I didn't get pictures this time. read more

I am very impressed with the service here! We informed the waitress our child has extreme allergies and they took all measures to protect her while still providing her a hearty meal. They willingly brought packages to our table so we could double check ingredients. They do not claim to be an allergy free restaurant but they do a wonderful job at trying to accommodate. They even asked for a list of her allergies so the cook could double check for cross contamination. I'm very impressed. read more

Owner is retired military from NC who "married a German girl," which explains the weinerschnitzel on the menu and the pulled pork special, which was delicious. Tasty food, fast service, and the most polite teenage waiter ever. read more

My husband and I just enjoyed a great lunch. We ordered a cheeseburger and a patty melt. Great service. Great food. A bit off the highway but definitely worth the detour. Next time we need to leave for dessert! read more

Fried mushrooms were good, everything was mediocre. Tasted like foodservice items that you would get at a school cafeteria. Disappointed. Nothing was scratch made. read more

We are from out of town and this food definitely hit the spot. The only thing better than the food was the excellent service we received from Kim! She was attentive, personable, and overall fantastic! I don't remember the last time I had service that amazing, Kim deserves a raise! read more

My kids and I had a nice experience at Joe Snuffy's. We had a very friendly waitress who was awesome. The food was good too. I had an omelette with hashbrowns and toast. My daughter had the corndog kids meal and my son had a sandwich. The atmosphere was low-key but nice. It is a great place for lunch or breakfast! read more

Great service great food really respect the fact u wear masks and they are taking the Covid 19 serious.

We love to eat at Joe Snuffys. Friendly staff that go out of their way to make you feel at home. The food is great and the prices reasonable. Marty and Anja do a lot for the community. Good people and good place to enjoy a meal. read more

The building is unassuming from the outside, but once you walk in, it looks just like grandmas cafe used to. Like the cafes of old, we were able to seat ourselves, a small thing that I really enjoyed. The staff, all of them, were very prompt, friendly and courteous. Our salads came out quick, were nice and fresh, and nothing was wilty! Dinner came out just as the salads were finished, and was hot and fresh. Between two of us, we had the fish filets and the chicken fried steak. I had mashed potatoes as a side, and was surprised to find they were real potatoes. Some fancier establishments tend to use instant spuds instead of real potatoes, so this was very refreshing. The chicken fried steak was very tasty and fork tender. The fish had an overly fishy taste. I know it was fish, but this was a bit like it just came out of a muddy river. Other than the fishy fish, the meal was great, and did I mention the huge dinner rolls? I will be back, and would recommend dining here to all who visit Abilene. read more

Excellent! Great food and staff with all the small town hospitality. The chicken fried steak is a must.

I got the Hawaiian burger, and it was delicious! I will definitely be coming back to this place when in the area.

Great breakfast spot! My wife and I are gluten free for health reasons and they have multiple options. The food and the service were awesome, we'll be back the next time we're in town. read more

A great local restaurant in Abilene Kansas. The fried chicken was perfect. The rest of my group had a wide range of meals; hamburger, breakfast, and chicken fried steak. They all enjoyed the meal and then had to have the pie. They had peanut butter, chocolate, and coconut pies. I'm surprised they could walk after all that food, but they were all happy. I highly recommend Joe Snuffy's to the locals or the visitors like myself. read more

We enjoyed the deep fried veggies, and grilled ham and cheese. We also had pie for dessert. Great hours ...open till 8pm on Sunday.

After visiting the Eisenhower Museum, I stopped here for lunch after reading the Yelp reviews. It was excellent. Amanda was my server, quick and helpful. She recommended the very fine turkey melt. The owner, Marty was very friendly and told me a bit about Abilene. The Ike Museum is great, and it was nice having a good place to eat afterwards. read more

I love the small town feel when you walk in the door the owner works behind the bar and the first one to say hi. It's clean fast service and amazing food! They serve baked potatoes all day! read more

Thanks, again, to yelp reviews for identifying this wonderful hometown restaurant. Locals are extremely familiar with this place, as it was packed when we arrived. Still, we seated ourselves at a back table and had fun reading the menu of good home cooked meal selections. The chili burger was great. I had it sans bun because oh what a mess that would have been. Both the chili (beanless) and the burger (fresh, not frozen, meat hand patted) were great. I had a side of mashed potatoes and gravy. Again, very down home as these were really mashed, not whipped, spuds. My husband said the coleslaw was excellent. Abilene is a cute town and this small "old fashion grill" as its sign reads is part of the charm. Don't miss it. Friendly service by cute high schoolers and very affordable meals, including the daily specials. And, wait for it, they have gluten free bread, if you want it! read more

Good place to eat after the Eisenhower tours. We went on a Sunday as church was getting out so it was crowded and slow, bit that was kind of our fault. Will absolutly go back at a different tome of day. read more

We came off the interstate to have lunch. The outside looked like a bar. We were waited on promptly and given our drinks. Great iced tea. The cole slaw was great. My husband's chicken fried steak had more breading than meat and the gravy was bland. I had a patty melt that was good but had kraft American cheese slice on it. Nice interior and great waitress. read more

Don't let the understated exterior deter you from going in. You will be glad you did. The burgers are freshly made and according to my husband, the best cole slaw. We notice most of the staff are high school age and they were very polite, efficient and respectful. It's great to see a local business giving young adults employment opportunities. read more

We discovered this gem after our visit to the Eisenhower Museum yesterday. We were fortunate to visit with the owner, Marty, who made us feel quite at home. We had the Reuben and chicken salad sandwich, with rich mac and cheese and delicious, crunchy onion rings. We'll definitely go back on our return to Abilene! read more
