Port Cafe

I was looking for a breakfast place this morning and stumbled upon the port Café. it was an unassuming looking place in Freeport, Texas, but there were lots of cars there so I knew it was going to be good Since it was a Saturday morning, I was planning on just getting some breakfast tacos, but upon arrival they had a breakfast buffet, a full breakfast buffet, including French toast, pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, assorted fruits, and vegetables, biscuits, and gravy, hashbrowns, fried potatoes, salsa, and pico de gallo. I'm a big fan of pico de gallo. I make some at home and this one was just as good as what I make it home. I was very impressed with this. I forgot to mention, though also they had some Carne Guisada, very flavorful and I ordered a side of refried beans and tortillas and made some tacos and they were excellent!! I highly recommend this place!!

We arrived around 1 pm and the Port Cafe was kind of quiet. It's a small town kind of place but the food exceeds expectations. The waitress was friendly and helpful and said that everything was good- which turned out to be true! Soft drinks and tea were served in quart sized mason jars and I had to use two hands to lift it. I ordered chalupas which were served classic style with ground beef, cheese and sour cream. Hubby had the BEAST- bacon, egg, avocado, spinach and toast and said it was good. Friends had the Port Burrito (it was big and he ate the whole thing) and the Poor Boy with shrimp. We all loved our food. The restaurant has a buffet - one for breakfast and one for lunch. We were given complimentary peach cobbler as we were there close to closing time and it was very tasty. There isn't a lot to see in Freeport but if you're there, this would be the place to stop!

Waitstaff was nice, food came out fairly quick. Bathrooms a bit gross, old dust all over the wall decorations, mold spots on the vents. The food was disappointing. GF got an omelet which she struggled to describe but came up with "watery" and tasteless. I had biscuits and gravy - gravy was definitely from a packet and the sausage was a tasteless. The eggs had black grill dust in them. Hash browns were fine. Seems they just increased prices recently, new prices written on white tape over the old prices. Seems they jumped up $2-3 per item, which based on the food quality IMO the new prices are definitely overpriced.

Soooo this is the last time I review restaurants in this area they all just disappoint. I really wanted to have a good review on this but unfortunately it was horrible all the way around. There was one other table and it was breakfast. We waited almost 30 minutes after eating to get our food. The biscuits and gravy were packaged gravy on either stale or burnt biscuits I couldn't tell you which. And my sons pancakes were just ok while he asked for a soft boiled egg which came out hard boiled and literally freezing cold like it was cooked yesterday thrown in the fridge and then on his place. IHOP is better then this place every single time! I'm just going to start accepting that less the. Mediocre food is all that's over here. My best advice is to keep driving down 288 til you hit pearland atleast if you want decent food.

Love this place! Been coming here for years and the food is always fresh and delicious!! We always bring family here when they are in town!During the week they have a huge lunch buffet with a salad bar.Highly recommend!

The brunch buffet was really good. 15 people walked in after us and they handled the crowd no problem.

It really doesn't look like much from the outside. We would have never stopped except for the good reviews. This is precisely what you want a dive cafe to be. The kids split a cheeseburger and fries. (I tried it) The fries were HUGE and not soggy like big hand made fries usually turn out. These were nice and crispy outside and creamy inside. Perfect. The burger was delicious. High quality beef nice and thick and some sort of sharp cheddar cheese. Very flavorful. On a buttery bun. Wife and I did the lunch buffet. The cheese enchiladas were a little bland but a little homemade salsa spiced them right up. The beef tips were excellent as well and the meat loaf and the chicken fried steak. The sides were great too. I loved the green beans. My wife thought they were a bit salty. Cabbage was spot on. The people sitting next to us ordered breakfast for lunch and I must say I was a bit jealous. It looked SOOOO good. Table service was very genuine and friendly. Will definitely be coming back again.

Wonderful find on our trip to Surfside Beach! We wanted a full breakfast before hitting the sand but had our small dog with us. Since it was after regular breakfast hours, we were skeptical of locating somewhere nearby still serving. But, found this cafe not so far from us and the polite young lady who answered my call inquiring about pets encouraged us to come. Once there, we were able sit on the outdoor patio and our server was so attentive to us and welcoming. The menu was extensive and our meals were beautifully prepared. Port Cafe is a gem if you're staying in the area.

I'm one for not liking a place just by sight, but that's Impossible when it comes to the home cooking coming out of this restaurant. The Pork Chops and Eggs was right on the spot. The BEANS coming out of this kitchen are literally the Best in ALL of Texas, mark my Word. After today's meal, our family gives this jewel a 6 Star rating out of 5. They serve a lunch of the day, each day different, and its buffet style, all you can eat. We'll definitely back for the Ribs luncheon before we leave the area. To Cindy our waitress, we are so glad we found you, the other ladies, and this great food find restaurant. Thanks! Frank, and Eric

Wish I could leave a 0 star I order a beef quesadilla and I don't know how u can mess up that bad on a quesadilla bu I think they boiled the beef or something but no seasoning or nothing worst lunch I've ever had in my life.
