Stopped here for brunch with my family while visiting my daughter in SLO. The food was delicious and had that “home made” feel to it. The biscuits and gravy were great, we just wished it had more sausage in it. Each plate was delicious and filling and everyone ate all their food. The service was good. Priced right for what you get. Clean and casual.

This is by far the best cafe around. You better come with appetite, because this place does not skip on the portions. This is the closest you will get to home-cooked meals. Food is always excellent and you can’t beat the customer service. For you breakfast people I definitely recommend the biscuits and gravy.

Came here with roommates for a traditional American breakfast. Lots of menu options for savory, sweet breakfasts and everything in between. All of us got some variation of their combo breakfast pictured below with eggs, a choice of meat and two french toasts. A cozy, themed atmosphere with kind servers. Lots of parking too.

Good old American breakfast/lunch food. Large portions (we had breakfast) that will fill you up. Good location next to the 101 freeway (easy access)

On my journey to find good breakfast burritos because I’m on a burrito binge, I decided to try the breakfast burrito at Cowgirl Cafe. The experience overall was great! Staff greeted me and was very kind throughout the entire service. They came often to check on me, the meal, or to top off my coffee. The food it’s self was great! I got the breakfast burrito with sausage being my meat or choice. I got a home fries as the side and asked for a short stack of pancakes. The burrito tasted great! It was a good size and the sausage and egg mixed well. The sausage in particular was real good! The home fries were AMAZING! Highly recommend that and getting (I think it’s called) pepper sauce or salsa. Tasted amazing. The short stack pancakes were nice and fluffy. They come cowgirl size which means they were nice and thick! Definitely would come back here.

We stopped for a late breakfast and the restaurant was still busy – which to me is a good sign. There was a short wait for a table, and the staff were very friendly. The food was delicious. The biscuits and gravy are FORGET ABOUT IT, so good. The omelets and pancakes were so good. The veggies in the veggie omelet had a lot of actual peppers – which was really nice. The meals were really hearty and very fulfilling. If you are in town or cruising through, it is well worth a stop.

I loved this place! I chose it because of the name (I was into rodeo,) the waiter was extremely nice, the prices were reasonable, the food was absolutely delicious (And perfectly prepared, according to my orders,) and I even saved an extra 5% by paying cash! I highly recommend.

My wife and I go in as often as we can. It’s the kind of place that you just want to come back to. The food and the hospitality are excellent. They make the best chicken fried steak I’ve ever eaten.
