Looking for a good southern loving kitchen in old town Katy? Don't miss this spot. This has quickly become our go to spot in Katy, TX as there is such a large variety on the menu. You can come here for dinner or lunch. Today we got the classic burger and a build your own sandwich. The serving sizes were hefty and we definitely left with a happy tummy. The food was fresh and high quality. The wait staff was accommodating and so friendly. We even got to speak with the manager who made us feel like family. There was a large number of pies to select from which honestly was the toughest part of the whole experience. We settled with the key lime pie which was such a great choice but will definitely be back to taste the other types of pies. Lastly, this spot was bustling. We came around the lunch rush so there was a line. However, the line went quick and the tables flipped pretty quickly. We didn't have an issue finding a table and the wait staff was on top of it. This is a family friendly spot that had a southern, homey feel to it. Can't wait to be back for those pies!! read more

Been here twice now. Great key lime pie. Food is good and the place has a nice atmosphere. The first time a nice lady waited on us in take out line. She was a friendly and nice lady. The next trip was tonight. We stood in front of the pie & ice cream counter and no one came. There was 4 younger folks standing by the registers area and they did not even acknowledge our presence or the folks that walked in behind us. I finally walked the 4 feet to the register to get the young man's attention and let him know we would like ice cream and a pie. He seemed a little put out at first but, in the end was pleasant to deal with. Nice place worth trying. They just need a little more awareness on folks coming in and giving them some guidance on where to order and acknowledging their presence. Welcome and can I help you down here would go a long way. read more

My second time here and have nothing to say bad about this place! I went during Sunday lunch. There was a line but we went through pretty fast. It seems like a small dining area but there's actually plenty of space to accommodate everyone in the line. I saw at the end of my meal that they have another room tucked away with more tables. I do like the booth seating though! Their maple vinaigrette was perfect balance of oil, acidity and sweetness. I don't normally like dressing with my salad but I actually enjoyed it! I got a patty melt, cooked to my liking, medium rare. I do wish that they seasoned the patty a bit more. I had to sprinkle a lot of salt on it to make it right. Regardless, it was delish!!! read more

Enjoyed the experience. Prices, quality, and portion sizes all align. Good people running the place. Booths are comfortable. You order at the counter so no waitstaff but they still walk around and will take your empty plates etc. Definitely try a piece of pie. High quality. read more

This place is a popular destination for brunch on a Sunday! Small town vibes. There is outdoor and indoor seating, and plenty of it. But the line starts to form out the door around noon. You order at the register and then take a seat. Other than a server bringing you the food, everything else is self service. The restaurant also has an ice cream bar. Very clean and lots of natural light. We ordered the chicken fried steak and steak finger basket which were nearly the same, except the steak fingers is the chicken fried steak but cut into finger food. Amazing crunchy batter. The steak is a bit on the smaller side so there was a lot of extra batter without any steak along the edges. But the portion made up for it. The zucchini fries were perfectly seasoned and battered. The "healthy" alternative to French fries. We will definitely be back to try more of their menu options. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a VERY long time, so when a friend invited me to lunch, I couldn't say no. Nestled in the center of Old Katy, this quaint little eatery will steal your heart...and your tastebuds! The rustic farmhouse interior gives major cozy vibes, and there is even outdoor seating on the cobbled patio for those who want to brave the heat. The menu is phenomenal with so many options, making it truly hard to choose: I selected the pick-two with a cup of creamy tomato basil bisque and a half turkey club: both were absolutely amazing. The meal wouldn't be complete without a sweet treat, so I also ordered a slice of lemon blueberry pound cake to take home: it did not disappoint! The prices were reasonable and the staff were super attentive and friendly. I'll be back for sure! read more

Feels like a favorite kitchen from childhood, including all the best comfort foods. read more

Good food and not far from my nail salon suite. I always end up getting the buttermilk chicken salad

I found this place during my day of getting a car repair-I thought. I walked over for lunch and had no idea they existed. It's a cute place that serves ice cream and pies! I opted for a lunch special- turkey and Swiss toasted, Caesar salad, chili minestrone soup. I also got the chocolate cream pie. The pie was good and soup was nice. I did not care for the sandwich. They are located right in downtown Katy. The ambiance is cute and very country. Service was great as I was asked how my food was going. read more

Stopped in at Southern Dough Baking Company in Katy and really enjoyed it overall. We ordered a BLT and a chicken salad sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. For dessert, we tried a slice of their peach pie and the chocolate meringue pie. Let me tell you, both were excellent and definitely worth saving room for! The place has a charming old-style bakery vibe, with vintage appliances and decor on the shelves that give it a cozy, nostalgic feel. The staff were friendly and treated us well throughout most of the visit. The only downside was a small mix-up with our pies. At the register, we were asked if we wanted our pies now or brought later, which of course we choose the later. Because who doesn't like a warm slice of pie compared to it getting cold at your table? But after our table was cleared and we waited a bit with our number still showing on the table, they still hadn't come out. It seemed like we were just forgotten. I eventually went up and asked for them, and we did get them, but it was a little disappointing given how good everything else was. Overall, though, the food and desserts were great, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff were kind. Aside from that one hiccup with the pies, it was a really nice experience and I'd still recommend giving this place a try. read more

Really great experience. We walked in and right away could see the menus. The place has very nice modern vibes, but a homey feel. It was very clean and nicely decorated. The staff is very friendly and smiling all the time. They have a beautiful display of pies and other pastries like pound cakes. The menu has a really good selection and a lot of options especially for lunch with some lunch combos. I got a lunch half sandwich of a club with a house salad. Both were delicious and fresh. Some of my greens were a little old so that wasn't great but otherwise I enjoyed it. They had lemon for water which I appreciate. And the sweet potato fries were really good. I would love to try their other fried items on the menu. The outdoor seating is beautiful especially on a nice day like today. I will definitely be returning. read more

This is a very interesting place. It's very popular so all the tables are pretty full as you wait to order your food. The pies look great and I love the variety of American foods available here. I enjoyed my Southern Chicken Fried Steak and my husband enjoyed his steak fingers. He did order the French onion soup and they forgot to bring it with his food. Luckily the waitress assisted us and let us take it to go. read more

Delicious food! Countertop service . Relaxing , southern ambiance. Great place for lunch. Very accommodating for small parties. Very limited seating for large groups of more than 4. read more

The food and service is wonderful! We usually go on Wednesdays when they have their potato soup. It is so good. Their pies are delicious as well! read more

I popped my downtown Katy cherry! Southern Dough proved the perfect spot to do so. I was fooled by the quiet exterior, but now you know, if it's brunch time on a Saturday this spot will likely be packed. Dawning their awards above their sweet treats upon entry and in the queue, by the time you make it to the order counter, you'll be drooling. That's right! Before ordering patrons must past a wall of temptation in the form of 15 or so Bluebell ice cream flavors, fresh made sweet bread, cookies, and my favorite, pie! Oh so much pie, Dark chocolate pie, chocolate silk pie, apple pie, lemon meringue pie, key lime pie, and (the seasonal) strawberry, they really carry all of the favorites! As a pie connoisseur, I can confidently say that this spot does pie proud. That may not be a surprise given the name. What was a surprise (to me atleast) was their soup and sandwich game. Their tomato basil soup was a savory, hearty, treat, bursting with flavor. It pairs perfectly with the Bulverde sandwich! My dining partner could not stop raving about the potato soup. It's always worth asking about their soup of the day! To top it all off, although you do not have a waiter or waitress per se, the customer service couldn't be better. Managers check in on tables, and serves remain present on the floor ready to help if you have any concerns. If I were to introduce a brunch spot to a friend visiting the Katy area, it would be this one! read more

One of the best meals I've had in a long time! I'm from out of town, so when my friend suggested we visit this place, I knew it must be good! The place itself is charming and has an appealing homey vibe to it. Right when you walk in, you see a massive case of pies. They're all quite pretty and definitely make it hard to pick which one you want. We picked out the pie before our food (who wouldn't) and went with the chocolate peanut butter pie. You place your order at the counter, receive a number, and take a seat while you wait. We sat on the patio and our food was out fairly quickly. I had the bacon chicken avocado sandwich and it was soooo good. The pretzel bun adds something special to it. The bacon was crispy. I got a side of sweet potato fries and they were perfectly crispy! The peanut butter pie was the true star of the show though. It was insanely good. I'm not a big fruit pie person, so this was what my pie dreams are made out of. The crust was probably my favorite part, as it was chocolate and had a sea salt taste to it. I can't wait to come back here when I'm in town again! read more

Picked up dinner while staying at an AirBNB in Katy. They were super quick and the kindest man, I assume was the owner, visited with us and said he would say a prayer for our niece that we brought to TX for appointments at MD Anderson. The food was fresh and wonderful, too! read more

My best bud from my old work wanted to check this place out since it had great reviews. It's in Old Katy, so it took each of us thirty minutes to get there; was it worth it? People raved about ambience: yes it's cutesy and clean, but we thought it came off as kitschy. The overhead lighting was beautiful though. Other reviews raved about service: the employees were nice, but the counter ordering took forever and there only one cashier; on Good Friday at lunch? Hmmm Food was also said to be amazing: it was underwhelming and overpriced: I had a scoop of chicken salad and scoop of tuna salad which I thought would be too much. It was a small portion. My friend had a Rueben: The sandwich was good, but it was super skinny with a sliver of kraut and came with potato chips; for $16 dollars? Finally, the best part of the meal: we shared the coconut cream pie, and it was delicious--house made buttery crust, delicious coconut custard and fresh whipped cream and it was a big slice! Overall, it's not worth a 30 minute drive, but the pie is very good. The employees were very polite too, and it's very clean. read more

Incredible place - this is a must stop place for us anytime we're driving through Houston now! The service is outstanding, flavor is incredible and has the cutest atmosphere both inside and out. 10/10 highly recommend. The pies are to die for, chicken and dumplings perfectly cooked and possibly the best chicken fried chicken my boys have ever had. Fantastic - you should absolutely try it!! read more

This place is super cute and gives off small town feel. I had no idea Old Town Katy had this type of place. Everything we had was soo good. They have Bluebell ice cream, pastas, home cooked meal type things, sandwiches, daily soups and delicious pies. They offer a family dinner special for pick up on Friday after 4pm for like $50 I think. This past Fridays was Chicken Spaghetti. I want to go back to try that. You order at the counter, they give you a number and bring the food to you. They have fountain drinks. The decor is super cute. We sat at a table, comfy chairs. Power went out while we were there for a good ten minutes but our food was made before hand so they brought it out. And there was plenty of light because they have lots of windows. I got minestrone soup and egg salad pick two combo. The soup was delicious. The only sad thing was that I was hoping for French Onion soup, didn't realize they had daily soups. I'll be back to try it. The sandwich was also very good. Nice soft crescent bread. Perfect. My hubby got some sort of hot chicken sandwich with chips. He ate it all. Said it was so good. And spicy. Then we decided to try the pie. So glad we did. I got Key Lime pie. And he got Peanut butter pie. Both were amazing and wanted to just keep eating them but we were full. Look forward to trying more dishes here. read more

Oh my stars! You know.. this place is fantastic, country charm. We stopped in just to "see" but after talking to the hostess today.. well.. of course we had to try it. They use real butter in their pies, which are a MUST HAVE. Hubby had the dark chocolate pie and I had the coconut cream, both were phenomenal. Coffee was perfect along with it. We also tried their fries, which are deep fried in beef tallow - hello game changer!! We don't do seed oils so this was perfect. This sweet little restaurant is highly recommended. The staff were attentive and polite. Next time, we'll be staying for sandwiches!! Their menu is nicely done and not complicated, just nice comfort food all around. Wish I'd taken a photo or two but uh, it was all gone pretty darn fast. Haha! Enjoy! read more

First time here and had the best experience. Ordered the chicken fried steak which was HUGE!! Very Texas sized! My husband had a burger, and son had grilled cheese with fresh fruit. We ate everything and had to have a box for the leftover chicken friend steak. Even the tea was so fresh! We took some pies to take home. Such a cute setup and great place for a local family dinner. Next time we have friends or family over we will bring them here so they can have a great experience of Old Town Katy read more

Great food and friendly staff. Specials daily. Pies are awesome. Take your family and Enjoy yourself.

We stopped in for lunch and couldn't have been happier! Everything was absolutely delicious -- especially the cherry and peach pies. My husband and I planned to share just one slice, but when we asked Melissa which flavor she recommended, she went above and beyond and brought us an extra flavor to try. Such a thoughtful and generous gesture! The food was great, the pies were outstanding, and the service was truly exceptional. Highly recommend this place -- we'll definitely be coming back! read more

Last Sunday my wife and I were strolling around old town Katy, poking around at antique shops and she wanted a cold Coke. So we went into Southern Dough. We had passed by it before because we thought it was a pie and coffee shop (and if we want coffee, we go to Serene Bean around the corner). But today I thought a nice slice of pie would be nice. So she got her a Mexican Coke and I had an iced coffee and yes, we got pie. I got coffee crunch (I think that's the name) and she got strawberry. Both were unique and lots of flavor. But what caught us off guard was their food menu. Lots of good southern offerings. Chicken-n-dumplings, CFS, chicken spaghetti. And very reasonable prices. It was 3:00pm so not ready to eat, but we will certainly come back. I'm a shrimp n grits connoisseur and, yes, they got that. Can't wait. read more

My rating of 3 is just for the food, and food alone. The fries tasted gritty and flavorless. I ordered the Bourbon Pecan Pie was sugar overload I could barely take 2 bites. The amount of chocolate in it was surprising and ruined the flavor for me. If you can get past the food quality, the atmosphere is very comfortable and nice. It's a nice spot to meet up for coffee, maybe try a different pie. The staff was nice, although they got one of our orders wrong and didn't give us any glasses for our drink orders. read more

Can you believe it?! A Houston-area restaurant that is NOT in a strip mall?! Heck yes - this spot is located in the quaint downtown of Katy which adds to the homey ambiance and character of the place. The food is great and flavorful, and the service is solid. One of the better casual spots in Katy for certain. Didn't get a chance to try to pie but will definitely save room next visit. read more

Great food! Great atmosphere! They have a great selection of sandwiches and salads and they even have soups.

Family of 5 ate lunch there ... chicken fried steak, burgers, tenders. The steak tasted like it was a week old and had bloody juices seeping through the breading. The burgers were dry and under seasoned, the tenders were soggy and also under seasoned. The service was non existent. The booth was stained and filled with crumbs and we had to wipe down our table before anything. We didn't try the pies and maybe that's why others like it. Idk, we haven't been back but maybe we'll go to try the pies... I LOVE PIES :)))))) read more

Love the small town ambience. Food is tasty, especially the pies and ice cream. You can't get friendlier service.

Southern Dough used to be one of my favorite places. Over my last few visits, the quality has slipped. Multiple items in my order were wrong last time and today they said they no longer offer the big plate items during lunch even during the weekends. I'm really disappointed in the reduction in menu and the recent service experience. This place is a long drive for me so I'm going to take a break. read more

Beautiful ambiance and decor consistent with menu. We went for a late lunch after running some errands, my wife had the salad topped with fried chicken. The salad was very fresh and had candied walnuts, avocado and diced tomatoes. The salad dressings are clearly homemade and delicious. She tried the ranch and the blue cheese. Her only complaint was the tomatoes were diced way too tiny. I had the 1/2 sandwich (a club) and onion soup. The club had a great bread and very fresh meats. A bit too much Mayo but delicious bacon. Interesting rather than cut on the diagonal it was cut in half. The sandwich was a bit messy to eat, but worth it. The onion soup was very beefy but would have like more onions. The cheese/croutons were well done - in all a delicious soup. I urge you to try this little gem in old town Katy... read more
