The food was terrible!! The steak-fingers had zero flavor and the batter was like a chalky paste. The avocado on the avocado toast was mostly brown and had peel on it. The egg was cold, had a strange taste and the toast was soggy. The chili dogs were below average and the fries were cold and had no flavor. Just YUK! read more

This is my boyfriend and I first time here. Nice , comfy environment, and our waiter Austin was lovely. Everything was good except for the pancakes. Theyre not moist nor fluffy, may need to add more eggs or something to it. read more

Had brunch with my son at The Whistle Stop Café today. What a pleasant surprise. Small place, friendly service, wonderful homemade food and extremely reasonable prices. The servers all seem to work well together. And, there was a gentleman who seemed like the owner or manager who was very present and helping out wherever it was needed. We were originally given the lunch menu. We took a chance and asked if it was too late for breakfast (10:55 am). Our server (Mia) kindly brought us a breakfast menu. During our visit, Mia checked on us just enough to make sure our beverages stayed full and we had what we needed, while not interrupting our conversation. I had coffee and the Box Car (2 eggs, hashbrowns, choice of bacon/ham/sausage and toast or english muffin. Everything was perfect. The coffee was delicious as was my food. Everything was perfectly cooked. Even my toast was amazing. It was clearly toasted on a flat top grill (as opposed to in a toaster). It was slightly buttery and toasted. Yet, also still super soft. It tasted like the freshest toasted bread I had ever had. I didn't even add butter or jam. Who knew that toast could be so good? My son had the french toast and added fresh strawberries and blueberries and a side of loaded hashbrowns (hasbrowns topped with grilled onions, bacon and cheddar). The french toast was delicious: crispy and fluffy. The added fresh fruit is an additional $1 per type of fruit and worth every penny. But, the loaded hasbrowns were also a standout. Not too many toppings, and not too little. The grilled onions really brought everything together while not overpowering. I really wish there were another location closer to me (inside the loop in Houston). I want to try so many more things from both menus. To sum it up: you should check it out!! read more

The food and service is absolutely amazing. Fish and chicken fried steak is out of this world. Can't go wrong with The Whistle Stop Cafe.

Hash browns were burnt on the outside but raw inside. Threw it up within 10 minutes of eating it

This was my family and I's first time here at Whistle Stop. The food and service was great. Susie J. was a wonderful waitress. The ambiance and the crowd was wonderful too. We will definitely be back. read more

Delicious homemade food that you didn't have to cook yourself!!! I love their week night specials, too.

Great little mom & pop place to stop in & have a good meal. Everything is homemade with the exception of the chocolate cake which the waiter clearly pointed out. Prices are very reasonable & service was exceptional. All meals very fantastic, cooked & prepared perfectly. Not sure if they were overly nice due to my (accidentally) mismatched foot attire but we will visit many more x's! read more

Great place for Breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They have daily specials....with the best days being Friday and Saturday...the special is all you can eat catfish for $10.95 paired with the onion rings, is a for sure winner. The ribeye salad is a hit as well, I have never had anything bad there... read more

Mom and I stopped here on our way into Houston. It was probably around 2. It could definitely use a good sweeping, but other then that, we were happy. They have a menu with great options. We decided to do loaded baked potatoes with meat. Mom got the pulled pork and I got the grilled chicken. We weren't expecting the meat to be on the side. Lol. But the flavor was great on both! Definitely getting added to our list of places to go. read more

Delicious food and the service is wonderfully hometown friendly! Look forward to the specials each day. I eat there as often as I can it's that good!! read more

The Whistle Stop Cafe is a wonderfully warm comfortable experience. The decor is casual railroad and the staff is so polite and makes you feel at home. The portions are large and most likely you'll need a take out box ! Food is all home cooked and tasty. I had the steak fingers and hush puppies. The onion rings are beyond compare. I can't wait to go back and try the omelet ana the fish & chips. My new favorite place in my new hometown read more

Great breakfast place with very nice people. It can get kind of crowded on the weekends, but that's probably a good thing! We like eating here and the CFS is very good. read more

Friendly little spot with plenty of Local Yocal's. Just off the 1-45 offering greasy spoon entrees and some fun Southern comforts. Two doors to enter leave plenty of room for flies to dine too. The super dirty napkin box on the table was a turnoff. Food was okay, we ordered some fried green tomatoes but if you grow your own like I do and make your own, then...no need for your Southern fix. With a few tweaks this place might work for those craving some diner food. read more

Large menu. The grilled pork chops were to die for, very tender. Normally I won't order porkchop at a restaurant because most place screw them up but they know what they're doing here. The peach Cobbler was freaking amazing along with the banana pudding. This is definitely a place you would go out of your way to get to for the desserts alone. read more

The food was delicious. The service is impeccable. It's a very friendly atmosphere that's welcoming to everyone. Everything appears to be made from scratch, and their prices are more than reasonable. I enjoyed everything about this restaurant. You're missing out on a real gem if you don't give Whistle Stop Cafe a try! read more

Good food. Crappy service. I ordered the chicken Fried steak . I asked for sides to go . Sides and gravy came in small single portion containers. No big deal except they didn't even fill them halfway. They were more concerned with other diners that were not there alone . I could barely cover 1/3 of the steak . I emailed them , no reply . Apparently the management is just as indifferent. Perhaps I should share on social media.. read more

The wife and I showed up for lunch. Fairly busy, so that was a good sign. To start. The service is just ok. That would be 3 stars at best. Not much attention. Now the food. We ordered chicken and steak baskets, both of us modifying our orders. Everything came out hot, properly cooked, and delicious. Hands down the best fries in Houston metro. Steak and chicken fingers legit. Ready to go back soon. Just spend a bit more time working on the service side. read more

I was expecting this place to be awesome because the reviews are all great. The service was good, the cafe was clean, but the food has zero flavor. I ordered the chicken tenders with mashed potatoes and gravy. The chicken was juicy, but flavorless. The mashed potatoes didn't even taste like they had butter. The gravy was also flavorless. My boyfriend ordered the chicken fried steak and we had the same issue. The steak was very very chewy and did not even seem like it had salt or pepper. Maybe Breakfast is their forte and fried food is not. I really wanted to like this place but it was hard to enjoy. read more

Was looking forward to Home Cooking But got greased down food! Homey vibe Okay service Could be so much better read more

I've been coming here for 6 years or more, I have noticed a major decline in food quality, and service is definitely a lot worse than it was years ago when I started coming here. Today is my last visit here, im tired of the disappointments. read more

My experience was bad, I wasn't greeted at the door when I first walked in, I had to find a waitress, when i got my food the taste was very below average, my chicken fried steak was VERY bland, the mashed potatoes were overly peppery and lacking salt, and the macaroni and cheese was mushy and tasteless read more

I've only walked out before ordering from two or three restaurants in my life. You can add this one to the list. We arrived right at their opening time of 10:30am. We appeared to be the only customers in the place other than a man at the bar counter who was on his phone. After being told to sit wherever we wanted to by a polite young man, we ordered a cup off coffee. During all this time the gentleman at the bar was on the phone talking loudly. He soon got up and while speaking made several tours around the restaurant, in and out of the kitchen, all while continuing his loud phone conversation. I asked our waiter if the gentleman was a customer or employee. He's the owner, the young man said. Thats when we paid for the coffee and left. read more

We stopped into the Whistle Stop Cafe for a late lunch on the way back to Dallas. The chicken fried steak sandwich was amazing! My kids had the chicken strips and the cheeseburger and their plates were cleaned. Fries were delicious and so was the chocolate pie! Definitely recommend!!! read more

We had breakfast, it was ok. Asked for eggs easy over with the white of the egg done, well it was running. The house potatoes with onions, they were cut up French fries with onions...onions were not cooked well. The Texas toast was like a gummy, not toasted well at all. The food was warm not hot. Will not go back. Not worth the money priced high. read more

Awesome comfort breakfast food! Waitress Logan was awesome and super polite!! That home cooked food without being in the kitchen!!!

Really delicious food. And...homemade desserts. Place is small, but very good and quick service.

Whistle Stop is the place to go for breakfast. I have not tasted a better chicken fried chicken than the one I had this morning. I am absolutely returning for breaKfast very soon. read more

We have been wanting to try this place for a while, it's in the cutest shopping center. However, after eating here this weekend for the first time the only good thing here is the fried pickles. They were great! The burger and hamburger steak were cooked way over well and the serving of French fries is ridiculous, more than half the plate was full of soggy fries that no one can eat all of. My husband said the mashed potatoes were okay and the Mac and cheese was eh. The place needs a little maintenance, we saw several ripped green chair cushions and dirty ceiling tiles. read more

Service: The server didn't listen to our order. We asked for jalapenos on the side. They put them on the burger. Our server took it back and said that she had them remake it. When it came out it was cold, no bacon, and they put a cold slice of cheese on it. The meat still had the juice from the jalapenos on it. They didn't remake anything. The server had an attitude. If I could give negative star, I would. It's awful! read more

Gross! Raw bacon, raw sausage patty, poor service, saw waitress sneeze in her hand, pick up a spoon by the actual part you eat on then put it in a plate of pie, the actual pie case itself was dirty and broken, nasty carpet that haven't been vacuumed in a while. This isn't the same restaurant I had five years ago. They must have changed owners. read more

No stars for this place at all. Very disappointed at their lack of following safety guidelines during this time of COVID-19 . No distancing. No disposable menus. Barely wipe off table tops. No masks ( no problem since I wear one). But watching those tables not wiped down completely after each customer ...... no no no. Food is ok. Pricey for what you get. Presentation isn't always the best (greasy plates) But we prefer to frequent mom and pop places, not chains. But with their lack of following most safety precautions we won't be back. If they are this lax now, what is going on in that kitchen ? (Had to add a star in order to post ) read more

Great place to eat. Breakfast was fantastic, service was great. Nice and clean. Easy to get too. Go there early and beat the rush, especially on Sunday mornings. read more

Friendliness reigns here. The house salad was surprisingly really good. Not just some bagged stuff thrown on a plate. They took some time to make it a little more special than that. My cheesesteak was tasty if a little on the small side and falling apart a bit. But the experience was a good one all around. read more

Quite honestly, one of the best coffee shop/cafes we've eaten at in all of Texas! This California girl tried her first fried green tomatoes and they were delicious!!! My husband is a chicken fried steak aficionado and he LOVED it. The facility was clean. Staff was so friendly. Our sever was super professional and very friendly. We will definitely be back!!! read more

While the catfish was tasty, I wasn't impressed with the food overall. Ordered the Fried Catfish. One catfish that was a thin 6" x 2" piece was $9. I was expecting a much bigger portion. The place was a little dark and gloomy. Won't be coming back. read more
