We’ve been coming to Side Street Cafe for 20+ years, and it never disappoints. It’s fun to see how many regulars they have. We got the stuffed French toast and an egg scramble with toast, and it was as good as always. Staff is super friendly! It’s always hopping busy, so plan your time accordingly! Parking: There’s a small parking lot right in front and more free parking at the city park just across the street

Been coming here 8 plus years always great service and good food. Also really cozy inside makes you feel like home and the food is priced fairly. This place is special and I will continue to come when I can !!

This is my favorite breakfast spot. Honestly, it feels like you're sitting in someone's Texas home, enjoying a down-home hearty meal that tastes incredible. I've been coming to Side Street Cafe since the '90s. I moved away but am now close enough to visit again. The restaurant staff (AKA Friendly Family Owners), make you feel like you're in their own home. They are kind and attentive. They serve excellent lunches too, but back in the '90s, I came here for weekend brunches.

I've been coming here for over 2 decades. Been here over 100x. I can't say enough about this place. Never once a bad meal and with every visit I've had STELLAR service. As you can see by my picture that I can eat a lot. I've had just about every on the menu. Feeling healthy? The Harley special. Feeling indulgent? Cream stuffed French toast. And everything else in between is definitely worth every bite. You'll enjoy the great vibe of the low key atmosphere and guaranteed excellent service. LOVE this place.

Best chili cheese omelette on the planet never had another one that ever compared. Everything else on the menu is good too and the place is super duper cute
