Was pleasantly surprised! The signage is poor and the exterior needs landscaping but the food was to die for. How can breakfast be different than most places, right! Well this has to be the freshest food that we have ever eaten. The bread is made in house and didn't disappoint... The oatmeal raisin cookie was the best. Desert to go! We have been back twice and will continue to go back. Lunch on my second trip was absolutely amazing. Go and try it... it will not disappoint!!! read more

On occasion I have the privilege of paying a visit to the VA Hospital in Temple, Tx. It's our traditional to visit Megs Cafe, among others for breakfast. The food is great, the atmosphere is quiet, very family oriented, the service is always fantastic and they offer a Veterans discount. Their menu is unique like no other. Lots of original items. I repeated the "Three-Dom" breakfast item. Eggs to order, meat and choice of hotcakes, French toast or others. I choose buttermilk pancakes with blueberries. OMG, it was so good. Shared it with my wife and the portion was just right. Our server "Hope", was amazing. Offering great breakfast choices and came by frequently for coffee fill ups. I've been documenting the conditions of restrooms lately. Theirs is clean and maintained. Michael C. - Georgetown, Tx. read more

This place stays busy on weekends, with about a one-hour wait for a table, though we were fortunate to grab seats at the bar. I ordered the steak and eggs and specifically requested the steak medium rare, but it arrived well done. Unfortunately, it was tough and chewy. I chose not to send it back since I don't like wasting food. The eggs and potatoes were well prepared and enjoyable. Prices felt a bit high for what was offered. The atmosphere was similar to most modern diners; comfortable, but nothing particularly memorable. The service, however, was excellent from start to finish. The staff was attentive and friendly, and honestly, I wish the food had lived up to the quality of the service. read more

I went here (1st time) because it was listed as one of only a few "farm to market" restaurants in the Temple area where I thought I could get a good meal without all the additives they are putting in our food now. I walked in at 845 and stood at the entrance to the dining room for several minutes while 4 waitresses, who all saw me, stood and talked at the service station. So I asked the person behind the bar and she quickly sat me, right beside the service station where all the servers were. I sat there for 10 minutes,, watching them help & take orders from 2 tables that came in after me. They blew there first impression with me! read more

Haven't been here in a while but I'm glad I stopped back in. Really good breakfast here guys! Everything went smooth as usual and service was great! Also has a nice bakery area as soon as you walk in. Haven't tried any of those yet but will in the future. My meal was awesome! The hash was what I needed. Felt like a really clean meal. . The avocado toast was great on sourdough. The garnish was a nice touch. Thank you for a great meal! read more

I completely forgot to take pictures (blame the good company and the mimosas ), but Megg's Café was a great brunch stop. I came with a friend for my birthday, and we did the triple mimosa setup -- a whole bottle of champagne plus three juices of your choice. No notes. Perfect. The food was good, portions were solid, and the server was amazing -- super attentive without hovering. They also have a lot of breakfast options, so it's easy to find something you'll like. This spot is in Temple, so it's not somewhere I'd drive out of my way for regularly, but if I'm in the area again, I'd definitely go back for another brunch date. read more

Stopped in for lunch at Megg's and loved it and the place also has a bakery attached to it. So pastries and bread to take home for later to sample prices seem reasonable. My wife had the Old Fashioned Oatmeal, they had an over abundance of Raisins on the food. It was more than enough for two people thought the bowl would be of a smaller size. I had the Build your own Omelette with Pork sausage, Green Pepper and Monterey Jack cheese with Rye toast. Omelette was wonderful will have to remember to ask for no seasoning on the potatoes, seemed very salty to me. Being I use no salt due to HBP, my wife tried them and said they were seasoned fine for her. Coffee both regular and Decaf was fresh at noon time so that was a plus. Our waitress was funny on the spot and service was spot on the whole time. Nice atmosphere and wonderful food. everyone seemed to be enjoying their meals and conversation level was low and not disturbing while you are eating. Keep up the great work once we get moved in will try out the different breads in the bakery. read more

Look forward to coming to Megg's Cafe. The service and food are always great and the bakery provides the extra sweet once we get home. Today's lunch was on the covered outdoor patio where we hadn't been previously. Lovely clear day so the ambiance was very relaxing. Our choices today were the pastrami Reuben sandwich and the beet and Bibb salad with goat cheese and candied pecans and added grilled chicken. The salad had a balsamic dressing. One of the best beet salads I've ever eaten! So good! The sourdough bread was outstanding as well. Our server Paola was wonderful and very accommodating for two of us recovering from knee and hip surgery. Took home some cranberry scones and blueberry muffins which are outstanding. Despite a 45 ride there it's well worth the drive! read more

Megg's Cafe Was Such A Nice, Cozy, And Intimate Dining Experience. Our Server Was Very Attentive And Consistently Checked On My Husband And Me To Make Sure We Had Everything We Needed. We Went For Breakfast And Truly Enjoyed It! We're Planning To Come Back For A Lunch Date Soon. The Food Was Really Good! My Omelette Was Fresh And Fulfilling. The House Potatoes Was The Best I Had, Crispy And Hot. Thank You For Such An Awesome Experience! 9/10, Highly Recommend! read more

Service - shown to a small table promptly. Saw our waitress promptly. Food delivered rapidly -within ten minutes or so. Ordering. I am surprised that they have Mrs Butterworth's syrup. This rules out all waffles and French toast. Seriously? Not even available as an up-charge for real maple syrup? My wife ordered the avocado Benedict. It comes with house potato's. My wife said their coffee is a 7 or 8 on a 1-10 scale. Ambience- typical high end breakfast restaurant. Pleasant. It was clean, and not sticky. read more

Megg's Cafe - Avocado Benedict - Bakeries Near Me - Temple, Texas

First things first we received great service from our waitress. She was very attentive and helpful in what should be ordered . The scenery was a little open and that gave me a slight bit of feeling "exposed" but the overall decor was nice and cozy. Now to the food....... I ordered biscuits and gravy with deviled eggs on the side and my wife ordered smothered omelette with a brown butter pecan pancake and apple toast. Staring with the biscuits and gravy; the gravy wasn't seasoned at all but i don't really expect a sausage gravy to be from a restaurant due to that being a kind of "season to taste" dish. I was able to season the gravy to my liking but i was then met with the biscuit.... When i say the biscuit was probably one of the worst I've had , that would also probably be an understatement. The consistency of the biscuit was thick dense and soft but the flavor gave an almost "tangy" aftertaste that even the seasoning of the gravy couldn't salvage. All in all I'd give that dish a 3/10. My wife let me taste the butter pecan pancake, I'm not much of a pecan person so I'm more so biased on it but the texture and consistency tasted more like a pecan muffin than it did pancake overall I'd give that a 5/10. All in all our experience with this place wasn't the best. Service was amazing but everything else just wasn't doing it for me so I'd be forced to give this place a big 3/10. Probably won't be back in this life time read more

Excellent service. Food was good. This was a first time visit but I'll return again with the positive experience I received. Prices were fair. No complaints. The in-restaurant bread store was a huge plus to me as well. read more

Horrible service. Went inside to order a Togo order and I was never greeted. Employees walked past me and my wife like we were invisible. First and last time coming here. They greeted the white customers but never even said anything to me and my wife (African American couple) read more

Megg's Cafe - Caprese Sandwich and Megg's Fries(kinda like popeyes breaded fries!) and Biscuits & Gravy with Two Eggs Highly recommend!!! - Bakeries Near Me - Temple, Texas

Food is healthy and delicious. The serving size is large enough to provide a takeaway box for future snack.

A five star cafe tied in with a three star bakery. Always grab a five star anything and never mind what it is tied to. A cute organic sensibility. My vegetarian wife loves the place. Someone - probably the owner or manager - puts adorable signs and images everywhere. The "Wash Your Hands!" signs in the rest rooms are particularly worthy of note. But the original arts and crafts touches are everywhere. I am guessing the owner is Hobby Lobby's best customer. Rarely have Hobby Lobby's raw materials been put to better use. * * * As for the food, We had breakfast potatoes and salmon tacos to die for. Eggs are eggs but these were good ones. This being a bakery, they offer eleven kinds of toast. I ordered "extra sides" so I could order two different kinds of toast. Meh one and meh two. They were also offering a seasonal special of a pumpkin whoopie pie with cream cheese filling. I must admit I am totally pumpkin whoopie pie with cream cheese filling curious. But later in the day, I would put on about seven pounds reviewing a really good Waxahachie cookie and coffee store. (The Dessert Spot near the Courthouse if you really want to know. Five Stars all the way.) So it is just as well I behaved myself at Megg's. Still, if we lived in Temple, we would be at Megg's all the time. The non-bread goodies are completely outstanding. And the cafe itself is eye candy all the way. What's not to like? read more

We had to wait 1.5 hours to be seated then another hour for order taken then another hour to get all the food... horrible service

First time visitors and there were 6 of us. Only complaint was for my husbands meal. He wanted a half sandwich and soup. Then they say they are out of soup and it's maybe 1245 so beginning of lunch hr. So they offered him the salad. He didn't want a salad. Pretty early to be out of the soup. I ordered a whole sandwich and side when the bill came they charged the same price $13.50 for his half sandwich as my whole sandwich. I asked was that right? She that was the price, even though he wanted soup and no salad. I was kind of shocked that they wouldn't adjust the price since they were out of the soup. I then just told her to give me the salad to go. Food took a bit to come out which is fine if fresh. read more

First time in Temple, TX. stopped in at Megg's Cafe for Saturday Brunch. This place is convenient to get to with ample parking, even for larger trucks and trailers. The restaurant is very clean and comfortable with a home-style feel to it. The staff are extremely friendly and eager to make certain you have a great experience. My girlfriend ordered a Crab Bennie which was tasty and plentiful. I had The Classic Breakfast with Chicken Sausage & Wheat Toast. Both meals were a generous portion and included Country Potatoes. There's also a good selection of Omelettes, Pancakes & Waffles to choose from. Kids will have no problem finding something they'll like too. Inside there is a fresh bakery section featuring pastries and breads baked daily. Day-Old bread is available at 15% off. Their hours are from 730am to 3:00pm. If you've never been here, give Megg's a try. I'm certain there's something here for everyone in your family. As Always - Eat In Good Health. read more

A few years ago, we ate at Megg's and it was amazing. The deviled eggs with bacon, the benedicts.. We aren't local so any trip we would make, we would try to time it so we could hit up Megg's. Well it's been a while since we've visited. The last time might have been 2019! Anyhow we had a vacation and we timed it to return to the memories we had of good food and unfortunately it's gone down hill since we last visited. We ordered the pastrami hash and the classic Benedict. We didn't get the deviled eggs bc the description didn't sound appetizing. It's just not as good as we remembered. Sadly today will be our last visit. We can now drive on through Temple. Service was fine. Server was nice. Food was just so-so... a little overpriced for so-so. read more

I have been coming to Megg's Cafe for the past few years and have never been disappointed. Their food is amazing and is always fresh and tasty. The servers are always friendly and quick to provide refills, etc. The wait can be quite long, but the food is worth it! This time I had the chicken and waffles which were amazing. I also really enjoy the pastrami hash. They have a bakery in the front as well where you can purchase baked goods. The restaurant is clean and tidy.

One of our favorite breakfast stops in Temple, TX. The services and food are exceptional. It's dog friendly too

We came to Megg's cafe around 10ish. The hostess was nice. Our waitress name was Renee. She seemed irritated at 1st but warmed up once we chatted a bit. I ordered Belgian waffles and a side of bacon. I don't know who the cook was today but the waffles were almost like waffle chips instead of waffles lol.. I've ordered take out from here before and the waffles were soft and delicious so I was very disappointed this morning especially silo was dinning in. read more

Megg's Cafe - Toast instead of waffles lol - Bakeries Near Me - Temple, Texas

This is the first time I have ever disputed a restaurant charge, not because of the price at all (it was only $1), but because I feel it's not ethical to be charged a price that is different from what's listed on the menu, and I think most would agree. The treatment I received was out of proportion to the issue and disrespectful. I asked about the "special cake," and the server said they didn't have one this week, but I could add blueberries, pecans, chocolate, etc. to the pancake. I was not informed there would be an additional charge, so it sounded like I would be charged the special cake price ($4.50), or perhaps the pecan pancake price ($4.95). I opted for the blueberry pancake. However, when I received the bill later, the receipt said it was $5.50. I asked about it, and the manager said that she was not sure why it's not written on the menu. I told her that I was not informed by the server about this additional charge, so she said she would talk to the server then just disappeared and never came back. I had to go approach inside later to finally get a response. I was told that I couldn't get the pancake "comped" because I had eaten it all (I was confused hearing this), but that was never my request. I had simply asked for the price to be adjusted to the price listed on the menu. The manager wrote the reason for the price adjustment as "disagreed" instead of "price incorrect." I did end up getting the $1 adjustment, but it took a very long time from the initial question. It is so disheartening to be treated like my request to be charged the price listed on the menu was unreasonable. It would have been totally fine had they admitted it was an honest mistake, but instead I was treated like I had the audacity to ask about this price discrepancy. Whether or not it is relevant, it does not escape me that I am a minority in a small town. read more

I was in town for business this past week and heard good things about Megg's so I had to stop in. We came in for breakfast and we're immediately greeted and seated. They have fresh squeezed orange juice on the menu so I had to start with that. The juice was definitely fresh! I could still taste the earthiness, which I loved! It's rare to get freshly squeezed juice at a cafe/diner. For breakfast, I got the biscuits and gravy Benedict, which is essentially eggs Benedict covered in a sausage gravy instead of hollandaise, and it also comes with potatoes. It was very good! I definitely enjoyed the gravy . I do wish there was a little more gravy, as I expected it be really smothered. But, it was still very good. Our server was nice and very attentive. Overall, Megg's is a solid breakfast spot with a homey diner feel. Whenever I'm back that way, I'll be stopping by. read more

What has happened to our favorite restaurant? The last two times we ate there, it wasn't up to their usual quality. They have salads on the menu with iceberg lettuce. However, when the food arrived it is not iceberg lettuce but some leafy, curly lettuce. My daughter couldn't finish her salad. The ranch dressing has also changed...not as tasty. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich on a brioche bun. The bun was half the size it used to be. The chicken on my sandwich was 1/4 piece of chicken breast. It was grilled nicely but the entire lunch was a disappointment. The fruit salad that accompanied the sandwich was very good & fresh. We've loved buying our bread in the bakery. However, the last time we bought it, both loaves rye & country white) were terribly dry. We are so disappointed! Hopefully, things will get back to the quality we loved & enjoyed in the past. read more
