Stables Cafe

I think this is a must place to try again! We were on a return trip from Kansas and since we skipped breakfast we figured we'd find a place for lunch. I did a Yelp search and this was an option, it did not disappoint!The menu is quite extensive so I know I have to return to try.We started out with onion rings as an appetizer they were more like onion straws, good but I doubt I will try them again!I chose the Pulled Pork Sandwich w/side of Cole Slaw. Very tasty and I would recommend!I got dessert to go; Coconut Cream & Lemon Meringue Pie - both were delicious and highly recommend both of those if that is your style pie!Now we arrived during the lunch hour and they were pretty busy but we were seated right away. While we waited there is plenty of memorabilia to look at and yet another reason to return!

Really great vintage decor. I got the bbq buffet. They were running a little low by 8:30pm on a Saturday but I had plenty to eat. I enjoyed the chicken and ribs and the salad bar was very good too. I opted for a raspberry cider. The desserts were good but I'd rather fill up on meat!

Service was Good But when we sent the steak back as there was nothing but fat on the plate, and I mean no meat. Picture shows it all. The waiter brought it back and said owner refused to replace it. Have not eaten there since.

Came here with the family tonight after a long time away. Our last couple visits were pretty bad, so we took a break from this place. We tried it again tonight and it was worse than the past visits. Very disappointing. My $18 piece of hamburger meat (chopped steak) was charred to death and dry as the Sahara. When you order meat well-done, and say that you just don't want any pink, that does not mean char it to death. My fries were soggy and gross. My toast was hard as a rock. My son's hamburger was charred like a brick. My mom's "steamed" broccoli and carrots, which she asked to be steamed longer than normal so they'd be soft, were hard and raw. Seems like they were warmed up briefly and that's it. My husband's steak was good he said, but his "onion rings" were actually onion straws, which he hates. The floor was greasy and slippery. The window next to my chair was filthy. Even the fly didn't survive. The waitress told us a story about one of their past customers and she dropped an F bomb right in front of my son like it was nothing. Very distasteful. We also had to remind her to bring out items we ordered (super annoying) because I guess it was too hard to read the ticket and check the tray before bringing the food to us. The only positives were the salad bar (well stocked and decent options) and the ice water (very refreshing). I don't think we'll give this place any more chances. It was $100 for a very low quality meal in a dirty setting. No thanks.

Nostalgic interior and great service.Took my Uncle with me and boy that place was a hit. The crispy onion rings were his favorite. And our lunches so hit the spot.I got the smoked sausage with beans.And we both got a giant helping of onion rings!!Only coms were the beans. A bit bland for my taste.

Food: I had Chicken Fried Steak, Mashed Potatoes & White/Cream Gravy and one trip to the salad bar. The portions are large and I recommend trying it. My companion ordered Brisket without asking how it was prepared; he was underwhelmed since he was expecting smoked not boiled. The salad bar had decent options but the Texas Toast served with the meal was so-so. Service: Even with a practically full house, we were seated and served without too much waiting. Our server was friendly and checked on us several times to make sure all was good. Ambiance: Perfect, unless you dislike every vertical and horizontal space being filled with old license plates, sports memorabilia, etc. I loved looking at all the history the items represented. Our table was covered with photos, ticket stubs, etc all from 1945!

Excellent food and beer. Like to eat in the Tap Room. They have an excellent salad bar too. Burgers and ribs are the best.

The salad and BBQ buffets were great. The salad buffet is the best in the region. The waitress we had was very pleasant and made sure we were taken care of

Bbq ribs for lunch yesterday looked and tasted like it was cooked the day before and reheated all morning, tough no taste. Brisket was the same it came in a bowl with a watery base, no taste and tough. Salad bar excellent!!!! Baked potato excellent!. Maybe their other menu items are ok but bbq stay away from it.

We stopped because the immediate seating sign was on. When we walked in the lobby was packed. The server said she would turn the sign off and it would be 20 minutes so we stayed. An hour later we were finally seated. We immediately placed our order and forty minutes later.... Still no food in sight. Meanwhile, several "to go" orders are flying out the door. When I asked again about my wait- the hostess said- they were trying to help the kitchen get caught up. I suggested to the hostess that they stop taking to go orders and seat the people waiting. I'm invested now- so I'll stick it out but I will never be back. Terrible management for return business. The hostess was polite and so was our server so I will give them props there. Logistics are everything.
