This was a perfectly cooked breakfast, very classic diner, good drip coffee. Perfect over medium eggs! Husband had chicken fried steak breakfast and it was a huge homemade CFS! We will definitely be back

I come here maybe once a week for breakfast. Staff is always cheerful & food always good. Don't overlook this little gem.

The ambiance is an old and worn out diner from many years past. The owner and wit staff are super friendly and kind. The food is ok. Homemade feel but not prepared in the best way possible. Lots of grease and oils. They don't serve real butter . Prices are most reasonable and plates are full. So you really feel like you get a good portion for your money. My biggest issue is the cleanliness of the kitchen and food prep. Diners are not know for their sanitation practices and with the economy squeezing everything, I just wonder

Delicious! I had a wonderful waffle topped with strawberry and fresh whip cream. This was not from a can. Exactly what I needed for breakfast. He had a huge waffle combo for breakfast we even had leftovers. Servers were awesome even packed us a coffee to go! I'll be back when I visit later this year.

A Texan American traditional cafe , hearty breakfasts and lunches. The parking lot was crowded when I arrived, I wasn't sure if I'd have a seat! I was seated immediately, ordered coffee and a #6 breakfast; two pancakes, bacon, and a scrambled egg. My order was perfect though the cakes were fluffier than I prefer, they were tasty indeed. The bacon was crispy and my egg well cooked, as I had ordered.I didn't wait long for the meal. Hot and pleasantly served by a sweet lady. I tipped, paid, and left in thirty minutes! Off on US180 to Midland.

Stopped in after checking out the (closed down) Baker Hotel and was very pleased with everything. I love that they serve coffee in random mismatched mugs, the waitresses call you "baby" & "sweetie", and our food was brought out in record time. I had the chicken & waffles it was very good. Maybe a teeny bit too much batter on the chicken but no biggie, still great. Husband had the number 6 combo and ate every single bite. Very much a quintessential diner in a small country town and we loved it.

The reviews were great. We came in with our family of 4 and the service was absolutely terrible. I have never been treated this way in any restaurant. Our waitress was apparently the owner's daughter or relative. She actually yelled at my husband for asking about our meal after several tables who came in after us were already eating. She was extremely abrasive and rude. Jimmy the owner wouldn't say anything against his daughter. We didn't even get to try the food. I couldn't eat after the awful service. It was that bad.

Jimmy's Cafe in Mineral Wells, TX is a real gem. This is what they talk about when they refer to the "Heartland of America". This is the kind of place that morning TV shows send reporters to in order to interview the average American. This is real food for real people. There are no "Very Berry Crepes" here, or anything with whipped cream or powdered sugar. This is definitely the place to be for breakfast in Mineral Wells. The place was packed with people waiting for a seat at 10 am on a Friday morning. The atmosphere is friendly, clean and efficient. The food is good and the prices are beyond reasonable. When in Mineral Wells, this is the place to come for breakfast.

My family and I tried Jimmy's for the first time this morning, The pancakes tasted like biscuits , my grandsons bacon omelette looked good until he saw the black burnt beyond recognition crumbs of I guess you could call it bacon ? Everyone else's food was good . Everyone has an off day . However? When you ask for a refill on coffee and the waitress has two separate pots filling people's cups one fresh , one old , and she gives me the bottom burnt coffee, and uses the other pot for everyone else's ? Let's just say , I don't believe in coincidence ? Our waitress Michelle was excellent, the older lady filled my cup with coffee grounds, 2 out of 5 meals almost uneatable . The sweet tea was fresh and delicious. I gave Michelle 70.00 for a 53.00 tab let her keep the change . Doubtful that I will ever go back to Jimmy's Cafe' Unless they make it known they have a new much Better Cook . It's a small town, lived here a year , first time there and probably my last !

Went on local recommendation, as we were in MW for the day. Service was great, food was average. Hubby's sausage patties were hockey pucks- almost burned. Eggs were ordered as over medium-well and were runny. Omelet was a large portion and cooked well. Hash browns and French toast were tasty. It was really busy and folks were waiting to be seated, so it's obviously popular with the locals.
