Pitt Stop Cafe

Wow! What a wonderful find! We literally moved to the area three days ago. While driving around, we saw this little pitstop on the corner of the road near our house. We stopped by around 12:30 on Thursday and it was popping and buzzing! I love the way we were greeted - "Hiwdy! How 'bout that table over there?!" Lots of friendly locals and old timers. It felt . . . Cozy. Shelly greeted and served us amidst a busy dining room! Classic waitressing at its best . . . 1 Million things all at once!Our burgers were great - but - THOSE ONION RINGS!!! my favorite part of the visit. We got a German chocolate pecan pie to go. Can't wait to try it! We most definitely will be back!!

A locally owned diner-style venue that has occupied this space for 19+ years. Interior with simple country diner decor, very cozy. Staff are super friendly & PRICES ARE REASONABLE, with so many items under $10!! You don't find too many places with these prices anymore! Omelets come with hashbrown& a voice of toast or biscuit + gravy. The 3-egg omelet with 3 filings costs $9.59! The "Pitt stop" comes with bacon, eggs, hash brown, & 2 medium-sized pancakes for $8.99. The eggs were perfectly cooked, the hash browns could be crispier. The omelets were generously stuffed with your choice of 3 fillings plus melted cheese & salsa on the side. We will definitely go back!

This place is a definite home in the wall..the building looks small and old, but when you step inside it is large. The food is outstanding and the service was great and friendly...breakfast was tasty and lunch was hearty...recommend

Closing in on 20 years old, The Pitt Stop has terrific service, a quality breakfast and lunch menu and fresh pie daily. The racing memorabilia is pretty cool; but really it's all about the diner vibe and those daily specials.We had been to a specialty animal clinic to drop off our sweet kitty for dental surgery and were in need of solace and breakfast. We were also in west Arlington, not our usual stomping grounds. There were maybe some sexier sleeker breakfast choices listed in Yelp; but The Pitt Stop in Kennedale, down the road, spoke to us. I had been to the races there years ago; but the neighborhoods had changed! Not the Pitt Stop though, I'm guessing. The building looks to be from the 40's, so hard to say.We were greeted and seated and handed a menu right away. I ordered a traditional breakfast with buttermilk pancakes and sausage patties. I also asked for a side of spicy homemade salsa for my crispy hashbrowns and over easy eggs. It's called The Pitt Stop and it's $7.99.My husband was excited about the Build your Own breakfast tacos. He chose chorizo, egg, cheese and jalapeño in flour tortillas served with salsa on the side. $1.99 each.We chatted, drinking our coffee, checking out the racing memorabilia and the other diners who were doing the same thing! Some were there early, waiting for the daily lunch special - the goulash!Our breakfast came out steaming hot and everything was delicious. My pancakes were giant, fluffy and tender. The eggs were perfect and that homemade salsa - yes, please!My husband's tacos all but disappeared!Everything was clean, all surfaces and areas where food was served. There was a refrigerator ready with the day's pie. Everyone was lovely and helpful.On another note, I fractured my trochanter last year and had a hip replacement. It's taken me a year to recover and made me acutely aware of how some restaurant bathrooms just aren't up to snuff for ADA standards.I thinks it's fair to say that the bathrooms here need updating; but I suspect they have an exemption. Occasionally you run across an old restaurant or old building which has not been brought up to ADA standards, or even close. The Pitt Stop restrooms for someone who uses a W/C, walker or even a cane will be problematic getting into, using the toilet and getting out of without assistance. They are basically a small closet. The bars inside would be only of help to someone with strength and the toilet is extremely low.Just FYI.We will be back though another day for lunch and pie when we come back to the clinic soon. The food is fantastic!

This place is the real deal for home cooking. You can't order anything that's not great here. And the best sweet tea in Texas. And the waitress are awesome. If you like race cars there is tons of old pictures hanging everywhere. Be sure to give this little cafe some love you won't be disappointed.

Love this place and can't wait to go again. Who doesn't love really great homemade pies and a great breakfast to boot. Pie for breakfast? YES. My friend and I shared a piece of lemon custard pie with homemade graham cracker crust. So yummy

We have been to the Pitt Stop many times before and we LOVE it. Brittany was our server this time. She was amazing, super attentive and so nice/fun. The Pitt Stop is a typical small town diner with your local "chit-chat" and rural buzz. We love the vibe. It's nice to go to a smaller place with warm people and great service. This time we had the Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs and The Pitt Stop Breakfast. All was very good, as usual. Lots of coffee and creamer!! Just the way we like it! Plus, the prices are awesome!!! Everyone needs to go by the Pitt Stop at least once. You will be hooked. We have also been at lunch. It is SO good and they have great ranch dressing. That's always a plus for me. Side note: Wanted to let everyone know they open at 7:30am and I didn't see a picture of the menu on Yelp, so I am posting one now.

The food was very bland. The place looks a little dirty and run down. Exterior looks run down and dirty. The service was good and the prices were low.

Got to bring my in-laws who's visiting from California for brunch and they loved it!My father in-laws loves the nostalgic decor within the dining room. The food and service is always top notch and very hearty! I noticed our server even cut this one lady's meal for her because she's was j able to do it for herself.The stories you can over hear from the "old heads" table is quite entertaining and you'll find a few of them get together at this center table every weekend. Lots of history here!

Food is excellent and I've eaten here about 5 times since my move to the neighborhood. I took off one star due to their surcharge of $0.72 if one uses a debit or credit card. From my understanding, merchants are not allowed to surcharge a debit card. The pancakes and patty sausage are to die for--they taste almost like the old recipe at Paris Coffee Shop in Fort Worth. I was shocked that Paris Coffee Shop did away with the old recipe but I'm happy now that I've found the same ones at Pitt Stop Cafe. Prices are good. This place is like the old time diners of yesteryear.
