Back again for another wedding! The skillet was excellent! The plate sizes are big and I wanted to try so many of all the fresh baked goods! The service was great and we bought a mug! Especially since my mom's maiden name is McCain! Wish my grandma was here to show her she would have loved it. Cuts like town and shopping nearby as well. Lots of decor inside to look at along with some history. read more

This is our must have breakfast spot when we are in Salado. It's cute inside with lots of fun decor on the walls to check out. We love the food - all of it. Every time I try something new and it's spot on. Very friendly staff who take excellent care of you. I really love that they have a full coffee bar with espresso options. read more

My wife had breakfast here last week, the experience was so great she came home and said "we HAVE to go back this Saturday". We arrived here around 9:15 a few minutes after a table of 17 had just been seated. We got a table immediately and within minutes had our coffee and water. Shortly thereafter after we placed our order. Because of the party of 17 it took a minute for our food to arrive but our waitress stopped by and explained the reason for the delay. The food was excellent!! Atmosphere was just right for a family restaurant. Highly highly recommend!!! read more

We went in for breakfast to go, but we knew we were in the right place. There was a 30 minute wait just for to go and the place is only open from about 8 AM to 12 PM so they must be doing something right we had biscuits and sausage gravy, which were delicious with fluffy biscuits and the eggs were just divine. If you're close I will stop by. Don't miss this place read more

Voted for y'all at Taste of Salado--best quiche ever! Yummy! I can't wait to come visit your shop!

Good greeting. Prompt and friendly service. Quiche tasty but over cooked. Biscuits good, Eggs Benedict good, little ham, Coffee ok. Fair value for the area. Good, but noisy atmosphere. read more

Had a very disappointing experience today. After waiting 30 minutes to be seated (which is fine), we then waited about 40 minutes for an omelette and a Benedict. The omelette was hardly an omelette (eggs folded over a bunch of crumbled sausage) and the Benedict was overdone so we had to send it back and wait another 10-15 for it to be remade. It also seems we were charged for an orange juice refill that we did not ask for, the waitress just brought it on her own. So almost $50 and 1.5 hours later, not feeling very happy with our experience. read more

Went on a weekday for breakfast so no wait to get in. Fast friendly service. We ordered the Everything Omelet and the Quiche. We also shared the Quatemalan pancake and still took some home! Food is great, fresh and portions are generous. Will be returning to try other offerings for breakfast and lunch. Menu descriptions made it all sound good! Recommend if you are ever in Salado. read more

Great food, excellent service and a friendly atmosphere. Our go to place away from the busy streets

Sister brought me in when visiting salado. It was packed and when I tasted the coffee and food I could see why! Everyone was really nice and welcoming. The food was wonderful, and try the signature coffee. The Guatemalan pancake, a large pancake filled with walnuts, was outstanding. The baked goods were soft and fresh. read more

This restaurant was recommended by a local. it was not easy to find on Yelp. The food, service and prices were in line with good sit down restaurants. We had The All American Breakfast and we were very pleased. read more

It was as busy as we expected, but the service was very good. Wait was about 15 minutes and then we got seated and our waitress was nice. The food was good! Definitely will be coming back again. Migas was good if you plan on having it get it with sour cream and hot sauce. read more

For the past few years, his Lil place was one of our favorites. However, a visit about a month ago was the worse we had until today. We decided to give it another chance today. Ugh! We were seated right way, in a tiny table by the bathrooms. Location wasn't an issue... people SQUEEZING by us to get to the restroom was terrible! The service was mediocre and the food, but that good and it was not hot. The WAIT of almost 45 minutes were ridiculous. We will not be going back. read more

Welcoming atmosphere, top notch service and great food. The Salado Maple coffee is the best. Even when they're really busy they are on top of their game. Been here twice and both times awesome. Kaesey is efficient and extremely friendly. Didn't take a pic before we devoured it. read more

Great service and great place for breakfast and price is greatThe owner works along side with his employees and makes sure service is great

Love to give local business owners our attention but this was so disappointing. Got coffee & our waitress NEVER came back to top off. Waited 45 minutes for breakfast & at best lukewarm. Heard the table behind us say the same thing about their order. McKenna was our waitress & I always tip 20% or more but unfortunately she only got the 15% on the choices on the ipad... The gentleman in there looked like maybe owner/manager & he was bussing & wiping down tables...maybe he should check customers. read more

We stopped in here for breakfast on the way home from our Airbnb, and we were seated immediately upon entering the diner. I love the ambience it gives you the feel of real old world diner, with fresh baked cookies and pies to boot. The portions are large, although my BF had no problem, finishing his everything omelette. It was loaded with meat to the point it couldn't be contained by the egg. It was served up with a side of house made salsa. I had the quiche and what a good quiche it was. It was eggy and creamy...I can still taste it. I opted for the chai tea latte with coffee added (a nice twist on the original). All in all it was a great experience. They're only open for breakfast/brunch (closed on Mondays) so be sure to stop by early. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Salado. read more

Love them. This has become our "go to" breakfast and lunch spot. The atmosphere is somewhere between the feeling of a diner and home. That is the best I can describe it! We greatly enjoy it. The service is good. The servers are friendly, welcoming and attentive. You won't be disappointed. read more

Food was great, soup was outstanding. Best soup and sandwich ever! Highly recommend eating here.

McCain's Bakery & Cafe - Salado Scramble - Bakeries Near Me - Salado, Texas

Don't let the unassuming exterior deter you from trying McCain's. This is cutest little bakery and cafe in Salado. The service is friendly but not pushy. I am a reuben fanatic, and I think McCain's may have the best reuben I've ever had. The marbled rye was perfectly toasted and the proportions of meat, sauerkraut, and dressing were perfect. The bakery display offers a variety of goodies. I tried the oatmeal raisin cookie that was thick and chewy just the way I like them. I'm looking forward to trying their eggs Benedict next time I'm in town for breakfast. read more

We were sat right away. Our server and was excellent took great care of us. I would recommended the traditional breakfast and eggs benedict- very fulfilling and delicious. Bread were fresh and soft. Overall our experience was great. read more

Never got to try it cause on Saturday, around noon, they close because they run out if silverware, food and other things...

The food looked appealing and was tasty, the service was great but as for getting your food... there's a bit of a wait, but it's a small kitchen and it will be worth your time. Pretty small restaurant with a country feel, I mean it is Salado Tx. The Eggs Benedict will be my next thing to try, the hash browns were cooked perfectly too. Biscuits looked fluffy, the Quiche looked Amazing by the way! They have pies, muffins, and a number of ways to order coffees. If pancakes are your thing, they have huge ones with a hint of vanilla and they too are prepared as they should be. We had zero problems or complaints with our breakfast experience. I highly recommend people give it a try. read more

Stopped in for breakfast, based on the 4 stars for other reviews and a few friends recommendations we stopped in. Wouldn't recommend at all, save your money and go somewhere else. Service was not great at all, no one checked on us had to call the waitress over each time just to get things. Ordered biscuits with sausage gravy and hash browns and also ordered an everything omelet with extra ham, cold brew coffee and a soda. Biscuits with sausage gravy, gravy was good, biscuits almost cooked but needed a few more minutes, sausage was horrible and dry almost like it was the crusty bits left over in a pan. Hash browns were not crispy they were more soft mash potato with the slightest cook mark. Omelet the egg I swear was cooked in a microwave in a large oval plate and then the filling was placed inside and just folded over, absolutely horrible. The ham was literally lunch meat slice cut in half and fried on the cook top. The bread that came with the omelet was still soft like it had just come out of the package and they slapped it on the grill for two seconds a side and gave it to us. Restaurant itself is cute and has a nice atmosphere but the service of the staff and the food is not good. It's just a no for us and will not recommend. read more

As we made coffee (brought from home and fresh ground and made in our pour over Melita that we travel with) at the inn before coming for breakfast I didn't have coffee here so I cannot comment on the Most Important Morning Food Group at this very comfortable and welcoming cafe. But the traditional cafe breakfast was stellar. We ordered the light breakfast. Two eggs, bacon or sausage, and one piece of toast or a biscuit or a pancake. Our eggs... mine sunny side up; Anne's over easy, were each cooked to perfection. Bacon thick and good, sausage patty tasty. The biscuit was nothing to write home about, but the wheat toast was quite nice. Not your lame big bakery wheat bread. Real butter. Smucker's jams and jellys. What's not to like? Great go to breakfast cafe in Salado. Try it! You'll like it! read more

Second time we ate there...breakfast was great last time. Lunch this time was a salad with a piece of chicken that was like plywood. Service slow as they were very busy. Server asked about our meal and then didn't stick around to hear about it. Sigh. read more

We stopped in for breakfast on our way to Port Aransas. So glad we did because breakfast was excellent. I had the Guatemalan pancake,,,with walnuts baked in the batter with sliced banana on top dusted with powdered sugar and cinnamon. My husband had the "little" breakfast....two eggs, 2 bacon and a biscuit. My decaf coffee was the best. This will be a regular destination when we travel south. read more

Very yummy little place. The chocolate coconut muffin was to die for! Our waitress was nice and had a good sense of humor. We did have a bit of a wait for food but we were told this prior to being seated so we just had coffee and muffins while we waited. I could see this place having quite a wait in some instances because of the size and having such a small kitchen. read more

This is the first restaurant review I have ever done. I have thought about this for about a week. The service was slow - OK it was noon. The meal was slow - OK it was noon. The meal was pricey - but decent. I paid about $12.xx for a sandwich, and my wife had a similar order. THEN I noticed on the ticket, the price for a glass of Ice Tea - $5.95 per glass. PUH-LEEEEZE !!!. By the time we paid taxes and a modest tip, it was more than $40.00. I can go to a nice restaurant where I live (Major City in Texas) and get a nice dinner (not lunch) for less than that. Next time I want lunch in Salado, I will go to Sonic or a convenience store, or maybe the next town. read more

Terrible all around. The service was horrendous and the food and drink was mediocre at best. I highly suggest avoiding this place, your money will be much more valuable elsewhere. read more
