Holder's Country Inn - Cupertino

We decided to try Holder's for our weekend brunch, and overall, we enjoyed our meal. The new location is pleasantly clean and airy, but the service was a bit indifferent and not personable. We ordered the Chorizo scramble, California Benedict and Breakfast burrito. The food was well prepared and they served generous portions. The California Benedict was nice, but on the bland/underseasoned side with a very thick hollandaise sauce and the English muffin could've been toasted more so it didn't get so soft/soggy.One thing that did stand out was that for brunch food that can be a bir greasy, Holder's did a great job of not making it heavy or overly rich.

I didn't expect to give Holder's a two-star review-- I've had their BLT sandwich quite a few times and it's always good. But tonight I ordered a tuna melt and was disappointed. All I could taste was the melted butter on the bread. The tuna was totally blah like it wasn't seasoned at all. It needed a minimum of a little salt and onion, and would have tasted better on sourdough rather than white in my opinion. The other thing I can't get past is the tiny cup of apple juice for $4.75. That's the DoorDash price, which is higher than what you pay in the restaurant, but it's still very overpriced. It did taste good though.

Came by after 1 pm for a quick lunch. We had coffee. One seats you, one gets your drink order, another delivers your food and the server checks on you. It's a big place. We had coffee with our chicken fried steak with eggs, hash browns and pancakes. It's too much for one. After all these years, I found eggs over medium tastes better and is consistently better than over easy eggs. Ordering extra crisp hash browns doesn't necessarily make them extra crisp. The fries were crisp and they have a generous topping of carne asada goodies. It's not five star excellent but still really good!

Awesome as usual!!First time to the new location and it's awesome! Service was fantastic and the new ambiance is so very comfortable and inviting. The food was superb and delicious! As good as the prior location which was awesome!We will be back as often as we can!

Brunch anyone? This is normally a breakfast stop for me, but today I wanted something different, flipped the menu over and I was intrigued. Sandwiches were calling my name when everyone else wanted breakfast food. I decided to do the BLT because bacon :) The sourdough was toasted perfectly and the bacon, lettuce and tomato with mayo hit just right. A few more pieces of bacon would have made this 10/10. I'll give it an 8/10 this time, but still very good and satisfying. Everyone's food came out quickly and the big table went silent. The portions are very good size and everything was hot and fresh. Holders is always an easy decision and hits a spot for everyone.

I stopped by on a weekday morning, and they surprisingly had a lot of people dining in. They do have a pretty quick turn around for their tables, which is good because they had a constant stream of new diners. The waitstaff were also polite and provided pretty solid dining service. There was only a small hiccup at first when I had to wait longer than I thought I would before someone would hand me menus to choose what I wanted to order. Once I had a menu, it didn't take long to place my order and for it to come out from the kitchen. The restaurant has a tranquil and laid back atmosphere. The decorations also matched this type of vibe with the high ceilings, plant wall decor and wood wall accents! It's very modern without feeling too industrial.I ordered a reuben sandwich with the fries (because if there's rueben on the menu, I'm getting it! lol). It was pretty good. The sandwich had pretty good proportions of corned beef, sauerkraut and Swiss cheese. The rye bread was a tad too big though, and I felt like it wasn't toasted enough. It was still good, but I wished they toasted the bread a little bit more. The fries were crunchy, which was how I liked them! Overall, a really good dining experience. I would definitely come back again to maybe try a different dish on their menu.

I decided to visit Holder's with my partner on a weekend evening. We parked in the retail parking lot next door. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that you can enter Holder's from the retail parking; they have a back door connected to the retail parking lot.Upon entering through the back door, I was greeted by a lush green wall adorned with real plants! It was a nice aesthetic that seems to require a lot of maintenance!I opted for a simple breakfast of chicken apple sausages, eggs, hashbrowns, and pancakes. The chicken apple sausages had a good balance of sweet and savory as usual. The pancakes were soft and fluffy. I always enjoy the texture of their pancakes. However, I was a bit surprised by the hashbrowns--they weren't as crispy as last time. Although they were cooked thoroughly, I wasn't expecting them to lack crispness. During my last visit, both my partner and I had crispy hashbrowns, but this time, his were crispy and mine weren't. It felt like there was a bit of inconsistency with the hashbrowns. I still enjoyed my meal overall, and the eggs were cooked to perfection!Additionally, I learned that they do not offer pure maple syrup here. Although it's not a deal-breaker, it would've been a nice touch, especially since there are other breakfast spots that do. Overall, I enjoyed my time here. It's a solid breakfast place.

Country Inn used to be on De Anza Blvd as an affordable breakfast diner selling big portions for cheap. I haven't been since I was a child, but they've really gentrified everything with a brand new space and I feel like the dishes have been spruced up.Really good: Berries & Cream French Toast - I'm not usually a sweet breakfast kind of guy, but their options look really good and I was eyeing all the other tables get their food. This one comes out real fresh and has a lovely crust of egg on each side of the toast. The toppings are fresh berries and whip. Pretty simple but very delicious! Underwhelming:Corned beef hash - ordered this as a side to have a savory accompaniment to my French toast. It has a really mealy texture, I think the beef is ground(???) and no crispy crust develops on what seems like a half moon pressed patty of beef and potato cubes. I wouldn't order this again.Service was quick and professional.Overall, I think a great majority of the menu is probably very solid and I ordered one thing that they don't quite have right. I look forward to returning to try other items!

Been going to Holder's Country Inn for decades. And never was disappointed and still holds true today ! Only, exception would be missing the old location's restaurant and the 60's circa charm. Though the new location does its best, the circular vinyl booths and vinyl stools on the table facing the kitchen is hard to replace. Brings me back to my childhood and sad a fire took all this away. Service is friendly and amazing. Every Server does their best to make sure your cup of coffee is always filled :) . Food always comes out delicious and if good old fashion American breakfast is your comfort food, then you won't be disappointed. Best hash browns and pancakes in my opinion !!!Parking is much better than the previous location. I suggest you park in the back parking area and come in the back door entrance. I also suggest you prepare to wait a little if you plan to coming on a Sunday.

We came here on a Saturday and got seated pretty quickly at around noon. It was crowded though so I'd expect there to possibly be a wait. When we got seated there were already menus on the table but it took forever for someone to come and acknowledge us. Once our order was taken that's the last we saw of our server. We needed jam since our tiny table didn't have any and the lady glared at our table as if we were dumb and we told her there was nothing on the table so she sighed, grabbed some jam and rudely put it on our table. Sorry we inconvenienced you. We also did not have anyone refill our waters either.The food was decent but the whole overall experience was so bad that we won't be coming back here. I've never had such a poor experience at the Holder's location in San Jose.
