    diners in a diner

    Sunday ride from Phoenix to Bagdad via Yarnell. Retro diner appealing from the road. Sat down pretty quick with a friendly wait staff. Chili cheese dog and a cup of water. Waited over 1 hour to get my food. It was okay, but what do you expect for a dog. No idea why it took so long. Didn't seem busy.

    A beautiful 50's diner that serves really good food. The staff are friendly and our food came fast. I had the veggie omelette and it was very nicely done. Portions are big! We flew our small airplanes into the local airport and the owners picked us up, very friendly people!

    Seated quickly, super friendly staff. Place was simple and clean....however, the wait. Over one hour (no exaggeration) for a patty melt. The food was hot and tasty,but, the place was not busy. It seems like they were getting a lot of to go orders while forgetting to serve those who were in the restaurant.

    Been open an hour and NO one has gotten their food :(

    Come here if you're ready to wait an hour for a small single Order of biscuits and gravy, just to be treated like an inconvenience when asking for a refill.

    I eat here every time I am in town. Great burgers and curly fries. Big portions, they don't skimp. Milkshakes are to die for.

    Great little diner in the middle of this tiny mine town. Quality food for how far off the beaten path we were. Definitely recommend.

    Visited 12/26/2025…read more Loretta and I found a favorite Place for Chicken Fried Steak. We didn't think anywhere in AZ could beat CrossRoads Cafe in Parker AZ for home made Country Fried Steak & Gravy. Has been our favorite for many years but now Spurs Cafe in Wickenburg has taken our hearts. Magnificent Food, Great Service. A Very Special Place. Spurs Cafe https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=%2Fg%2F11fhxzg7kt&hl=en-US&q=Spurs%20Cafe&shndl=30&shem=ptotplc&source=sh%2Fx%2Floc%2Fosrp%2Fm1%2F3&kgs=f39015da11962027 Only a little over an hour from here in Brenda AZ this historic little country Cafe was Amazing. Loretta ordered A Side Order of Chicken Fried Steak & Gravy only $9.00 Fantastic Seasoning nothing more needed and Covered most of the plate. The price was a surprise for this sized serving. Big enough for two. I chose The Meat Lovers Omelette with Spicy Potatoes and wasn't disappointed. $16.00 Very filling for sure. We also got a side of Fries $4.00 and Onion Rings $5.00 Both were perfectly fried and seasoned. It's well worth the drive for the best CF Steak we have ever had. Also Amazing Service. Can't wait to return and try Lunch.

    Spurs sets the standard for a perfect breakfast and lunch . Many varieties and options. Tasty…read morepotatoes and eggs. Bacon is thick cut and mostly meat and not fat, flavor filled sandwiches and the prices are less than you'd expect for such quality and big portions. Servers are very friendly, professional and personable and move like their on skates. I'm from Vegas and eat here 3-4 mornings or lunches a week.

The menu has all the classic café favorites, but what really sets this place apart is the quality. You can truly taste the care and love that goes into the food; everything feels thoughtfully made with fresh, homemade ingredients. I didn't catch the name of our server but she was so cute and sweet. It's the kind of spot that feels warm and inviting, and you leave looking forward to coming back. If I were a local, I would definitely be a regular. Highly recommend!

    Very average. Nothing to write home about in my view. Coffee service is either too aggressive or…read morenon existent. I prefer to drink my coffee with creamer & get a refill when I've finished the cup, not deluting it in between. The menu is very cleaver in stating the toast comes in 1 or 2 pieces, not slices as we normally expect. So for 2 "pieces" you really get one slice just cut diagonally in half. I look at these things & wonder where else have they cut corners to such an extreme. One thing that is beyond their control is the sales tax you pay in Chino Valley. It adds a 4% on top of state & county tax. You end up paying that tax in this town even if you just buy food at a market, which I personally view as just wrong. I visit Lake Havasu once in a while where they add just 1% but the roads aren't full of pot holes & have all the services one would need.
