Great food. Good pricing. Attentive service. Loved loved loved their Cleburne burger with onion rings. Well adorned old school esentric decor. Wished we lived closer.
Super cute restaurant with a train running around overhead. Calm, relaxing atmosphere. I had the blt with avocado. It was delicious! I should have ordered the fries well done as they were disappointingly uncrunchy. My waiter was a nice, young man. The pies sounded tasty, but I ran out of room. Lol.
Hey, weary US-67 traveler: are you tired of crummy gas station food and craving some real cuisine? Do your eyes need a rest from looking out for the seemingly endless speed traps? Well, look no further than Chaf-In.
This place is pretty popular, so parking is a bit hard to get once you get there, but once you're inside, you'll be greeted with welcoming, antique-feeling décor, my favorite of which is the model Union Pacific train running along the rafters. You can just take a seat wherever, and someone will be with you rather quickly, usually within a minute or two, to take your drink order and give you their menu. They have a rather large menu with all the diner classics, plus some novelties. Breakfast is served all day, but so is lunch and dinner for that matter.
About the prices: I got a 6oz steak, sunny side up eggs, hash browns, and biscuits with gravy for $9.99. Despite that price, there was absolutely no compromise on quality. In fact, it's easily some of the best diner food I've had. It's easy to see why this place has been around for over 100 years. Perhaps it would be wise to drop in to this place before it gets on Guy Fieri's show and they raise the prices.
All-in-all: it's a great place with excellent food and a very welcoming environment. It's more than worth the short diversion off of the highway.
Ate there yesterday for the first time and I have to say that we will definitely be going back!
The food was excellent and the only complaint was that the food was hot - yes, everything we were served was fresh and hot!
The young lady that waited on us was really sweet and made sure we were comfortable.
The atmosphere is great as well with a little train running along the top of the wall above your head.
I think my little Grandson would like that too.
Visit and enjoy!
Been here since 1920?! I can see why!!
Comfortable atmosphere (Love the train)
Friendly staff, the owners helped bus tables
Food was just phenomenal, every town needs a place like this. They have a very large menu, and everything I have seen and tested was really good.
Food was delicious, wait time was short, cozy atmosphere, and the waitress was amazing!
There were a few flies circling around where we sat and could have used a little more mayo on my grilled chicken but honestly nothing to keep us from coming back especially since our waitress went above and beyond! We ordered fried pickles for appetizer then a grilled chicken, breakfast special #1 with fries instead of hashbrowns, two kids breakfast , a kids burger, two large drinks and three kids drink. All for $49 even without tip.
Definitely try this place out if you have not yet!
Hubby and I were on motorcycles, and looking for a place to eat, this restaurant had what seemed like a sea of cars in the parking lot so we decided to check it out... it has a diner like atmosphere and the owner was polite, friendly, and very accommodating. The restaurant was packed, and while most owners would be flustered and servers tired, it was nice to see that this place was not that way. The menu contained every imaginable home cooked meal, sure to suit the tastes of the most diverse dining group, and the food was delicious. Highly recommend. Also... love the American Legion across the street!
The starting point is a great diner/restaurant period. Because my family has eaten here 11 times since December.
I ordered eggs at breakfast,and only told my server well done. Normally scrambled eggs is my go to type. Since if ordered regular it's always medium.
Image my surprise getting well done regular eggs.
Ok checking the eggs are perfectly cooked. Moving on tried six other dishes liked all of them.
The feel inside is comfortable like you been going here for years. A little train runs around the seating area above you. The ceiling has the old pressed metal inlays.
Simply put if you can go for a meal. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
