Barnaby's Cafe

Food: Guacamole Cheese Burger is my go to here, one of my favorite burgers in Houston. The meat is well cooked and flavored. You will always get your moneys worth here. Portions leave you full and satisfied. Lemonade is very sweet, and I love it. Service: Every time the service is attentive and quick. Food always comes out quick and warm. Ambiance: Very chill/laid back.

I just adore this place. The staff is always so kind and helpful. The menu is massive, and every dish I have ever ordered is massive and delicious. Every time I come in, this place is full of life and community. It's a certified classic Houston spot!

This is now my favorite Barnabys - the one on Fountainview is great also- best ham sandwich in town and chicken breasts are awesome- such friendly servers too! A terrific menu! Love this place

Nice spot for breakfast. Great staff. Cool atmosphere. My cousin suggested it and he was spot on. I had the bacon waffle!

My partner in crime and I were working from home earlier this week. At her place just a few blocks away from Barnaby's. She's a native Houstonian who's familiar with Barnaby's. As for me, I was trying it for the first time. She ordered take out: Salad for her, and meatloaf with mashed potatoes and steamed veggies for me. I walked over to Barnaby's. No fuss no muss. Order was ready when I arrived, i carried it back home. It was really good. Large portions, so I had some leftovers for a snack later on. For anyone in the neighborhood, I think you're luck to have Barnaby's in your area. I'm jealous!

Really enjoyed Barnaby's Cafe! Such good comfort food, the service is quick and friendly, and the vibes are very homey--reminds me of the diners in my hometown. We started off with the strawberry lemonade, which was incredible. I could truly drink a whole jug of it. We also got the sweet potato fries, which were delicious, and paired really well with the provided barbecue sauce. For our main courses, we ordered the Green Chile Cheese Burger and the Luna's Meat Lasagna. I was kinda disappointed by the burger--it was pretty bland, and they could have seasoned the meat more. It wasn't bad, though. The lasagna, on the other hand, was amazing. We also took the carrot cake home for dessert, and it was so so good! The cake was moist and flavorful, and not at all overpowered by the icing (an issue I find many carrot cakes suffer from).Overall, really recommend this restaurant.

This restaurant is popular among Houstonians for comfort food and large portions. They have a variety of salads with many options . A large salad can easily feed 2 people as a meal. The service is always friendly and efficient. The restaurant itself is similar to a diner. Pet friendly patio

Stopped by here for lunch. There were a few details that pushed it from 4 stars to 5 stars. First, the service was excellent and everyone was so friendly. The place is so cute and decorated with pictures of the cute dog that the restaurant is named after. The food was good! We had a burger and egg salad sandwich and each got side salads. The side salads are HUGE for a side salad and they give you TWO dressings which we didn't even use but it was a nice touch. Also the croutons are delicious. Another nice touch was i had ordered an ice tea and the waiter brought a to go iced tea when we were finished! They also have menus for your dog! How cute! Great casual spot and overall just a lovely experience.

As with the last 20 years, Barnaby's, at any location is my go to spot. We average Barnaby's 1-2 times a week. Our absolute reason for continuing to go back so frequently is the amount of chicken served in the salads and chicken dishes. 2 nights ago, we got home and weighed it. 15.6 oz. That's 3 meals of protein in a day, perfect for heavy lifting. In the last years when I wasn't heavily lifting, chicken salad with chicken, their burger, club sandwich etc. Don't sleep on their ribs. You definitely pay a premium amount, but at $19 for the grilled chicken breasts meals that average 11-15oz, that's 2-3 meals. Never had an issue with Barnaby's except for a guy at the Fountain View location that didn't believe me an order was messed up and I had called it in the previous night immediately to let them know and told me to come by the next day. That's 1 out of ~60 meals recently. I have not had that ratio of positive experiences at any restaurant post Covid.

The definition on dependable and solid. Barnabys is an unsung chain in the Houston area. Every location has the the same reliable menu options and atmosphere. Patios are dog friendly and servers are friendly iniside the neighborly feeling establishment. There's sandwiches, salads, steaks, burgers, and a couple other odds and ends to meet your needs when ordering. It's mostly diner type food thats always prepared very well and not too overly priced. This has been a consistent group of restaurants that I can come to and know what I'm getting into and that is always comforting!
