    The food was very good as well as the service. I had the burger and my friend had the Reuben. Will definitely come back when I'm in the area!

    Love the cook singing at full volume as we ate our burgers! Probably why the burgers were so friggin delicious. I've had a lot of Black & Blue burgers... this one is hands down the best one. Great fries too. Awesome beer selection. Good service. For a very remote little restaurant, I'm very impressed.

    It is my birthday today. My wife brought me to an Air bnb here as a surprise for my birthday. Basically, she took us to the middle of nowhere. This restaurant was the closest and only thing right here. There was another one 6ish miles away. They both seem to have the exact same food so we stayed with what was close. We had an early lunch from here and then dinner. The early lunch was a double burger with cheddar and sweet potato fries. It had a good amount of tomato and lettuce. It was awesome! 5 stars. Tasty and the young woman who was there was great. Dinner was not as good. Maybe 3 stars. Grilled chicken sandwich and salad with very little flavor. Almost no lettuce and half a tomato on the sandwich. Cobbler was decent and ice cream was great. Overall not bad for a small town place.

    Honestly the best things that came out of the was the guacamole bacon burger. Everything that came from there was pretty bland. Would not come back unless I'm craving a good guacamole bacon burger

    Grilled cheese sandwich with French fries (bread still Has a crisp to it) yum

    I grew up in the store. I swept the floors before catching the bus to go to school, stocked the…read moreshelves, and came to love the great folks of Rodeo, NM. Loyd & Custie Mauzy opened the Cafe after they purchased The Rodeo Grocery on the 70's. Years later, Nancy & Bill (deceased) Cloudt purchased from my family and continue to run the Cafe located inside the grocery to this day. You can always expect great food, great conversation, and interaction with locals. Yes, the farms and ranches have, for the most part, left the area. The history still lives in this quaint little town just inside the border of New Mexico. Just ask. Folks will share many stories of the area from Geronimo to John McAfee. Located south of I-10 on State HWY 80. Visit the great Chiricahua Mountains as well. See the area meet the people.

    I agree with John E - "If you're on 80 between Douglas and Lordsburg, stop here!"…read more ... but with a few minor service and food quality tweaks, I think the heading could change to: "If you're on I-10, the 20 mile detour to the Rodeo Cafe is worth it" or "If you're in Douglas, make the journey up 80 for a change" I stopped in for Breakfast, early at opening, the crew let me in early, and was instantly attentive with some hot coffee as if I was a local. The breakfast menu looks phenomenal and I couldn't wait to try the Huevos Rancheros. However, unfortunately on my visit, they were out of their enchilada sauce, so I went with the #5 pancake breakfast (large). It was near perfect. Two pancakes of solid portion, fluffy and thick; yet substantive and able to take the butter and table syrup perfectly. Bacon was perfectly cooked - crisp, not with a small bit of chew, and the ham sizable and nicely cooked. Eggs over medium - again perfectly cooked with toast crips and not dry. A few minor tweaks could move this from a place you stop by if you're in the area, to a place you come to the area to stop for. Table Syrup - Mrs. Butterworths? I'd suggest you consider finding a small purchase of 1.5oz single-serve jars of pure maple syrup. If I was offered that for an extra $4 for the quality of pancakes, I would do so immediately. Coffee -- Folgers is good; but you could easily buy a small coffee grinder, and some fresh beans. Put that through the coffee pot, and the experience could be elevated yet again. Anytime I am at Rusty's RV Ranch in the future, I will be returning here for breakfast again, and again.

They didn't mind us moving tables or having a slow trickle of people over an extended period of time. Coffee, waters, and drinks were brought out promptly and coffee carafes provided. The wait staff also handled everyone's orders and split bills well which I know can get overwhelming. We had a 1 year old with us and they accommodated him better than anywhere else we've been; they had silicone plates, small silverware, and provided fresh fruit for him that wasn't even on the menu

I stopped by at 12:30pm today and the place was packed. Service was fast, though. "B" was my server. She took my order right away and also gave me water and coffee. The coffee is free but it's weak. I didn't come by for the coffee, though. I had a full order of B&G and I ate it all! The sausage gravy still has that peppery kick to it. The biscuits were a bit dense but the gravy made up for it. The interior hasn't changed much since Brenda ran this place. Gone are all the 2014 flood photographs of the nearby San Pedro River. The crowd died down by the time I left at 1:15pm, but that gave me some time to chat a bit with Brad, who had been working in the kitchen with a few other employees. He told me he plans to open up Wednesdays and Thursdays and extend the opening hours until 8pm. He will still host local musicians to play on Fridays. He will run his famous BBQ as specials once he's settled into this new place. There is a 3.95% surcharge for credit cards.

    The non-review review…read more.... Well, unfortunately, I only made it to the bathroom and I understand the restaurant is from 1966 and I love old things, however, this establishment was not a good fit for me. I happen to love old things; I love old Antiques, I love the old ways, I love old places , but when it comes to eating, I guess I'm a little on the picky side. Unfortunately, I didn't even make it to the booth or table because when I walked in, I walked right by a server who was sitting down at the counter which I was really excited about, I wanted to sit there because it reminded me of when my dad would take me out to the local Walgreens (or sandwich place) and we would get a little bite to eat and a sundae in a sundae glass!! Granted it is the lull of the day for a Saturday, but I was ignored and then I tried to get the attention of the guy behind the counter by walking straight past the server (whom I thought may have been off shift) but he also ignored me??? I'm not sure maybe he has a hearing impairment? I said, "excuse me " a couple of times and that's when the server Finally said she could help me. I have a sibling who is Deaf - I also know sign language so I'm not judging, I was just puzzled because I was completely ignored. It was very quiet by this time. The server who was sitting down on her phone maybe doing paperwork then turned to me to help. I asked if they were closed, thinking maybe I was too late since they were no hours posted on the door ? By this time, I had already driven over an hour or so to get here so a quick bathroom break was needed. I had seen another review that was positive online so I thought I would give it a try for a burger and some fries - pretty simple order. After going to the bathroom first and seeing the condition of the bathroom, I just decided it was not for me. I think I'm overly picky when it comes to restaurants, so I'm sure it's just me. For the first time, I decided not to take a chance and I'm seeking elsewhere to find a burger locally! I will say there were plenty of people that were here when I arrived, and they seemed happy, I just think I'm going to pass on this experience.

    I'm not a picky eater by any means so I mean this when I say it. Jerry's restaurant is disgustingly…read morehazardous. I ordered a burger on August 3rd 2026 dinner time and the first thing I noticed was the soaking wet bottom bun, I initially thought it might have been wet because the side pickle on my plate. Oh boy was I wrong. After the first few bites my tung contacted the bottom bun I was met with a spoiled rotten taste and as you can see, there is a wet gray sludge mark on the bottom that looks like it's been soaking for hours. If that wasn't bad enough, the paddy was completely burnt. If you care about your loved ones, please don't eat here

The have a full bar, but if you're looking for good beers on tap, you can get options like Dargoon IPA, Blue Moon, and Orange Blossom. 16 oz will cost you $4 while a 25 oz will cost you $1 more. A flight of 4 samples will also cost you $5. They also serve moscow mules and other speciality cocktails. Single Jack has two menus, where a majority of the options are themed around mining. They have classic options like pasta, burgers, wings, and sandwiches. They also serve enchiladas, tacos, nachos, and some other classic bar foods. If you want something more substantial, there are steak options. When I went to this restaurant, we all ordered the Boss's Burger, which is a homemade beef patty with onions and jalapenos mixed in. It comes with classic toppings on the side, free cheese options, and 2 free extra sides. Any addition toppings will cost $1/topping. It then comes with either french fries or curly fries. I chose the Boss's Burger with pepper jack cheese, bacon and guacamole with curly fries. They give a substantial amount of curly fries with the burger and garlic aioli on the side. The patty was large, cooked well-done, and slightly dry. Service was a little slow, but there was only one waitress. If you have plenty of time and want to grab some beers and food with friends, this is a great option for you!
