EDIT: Returned to this restaurant yesterday. Was so excited because of how it was when I visited in June. The 2nd time was TOTALLY different. Food tasted different, an African-American male waiter kept yelling past me to the bar area, I was sitting at a table in the bar area, as opposed to walking over there and he wore no mask, the waitress suggested the peach cobbler as opposed to the apple cobbler that I originally had and it was awful. The peaches were hard and the crust was doughy like as if it wasn't completely cooked. I didn't eat one-third of it and Lauren, the waitress, asked me why and I told her. She didn't suggest my original request, nor did she remove it from my amount. So I paid $7 for a dessert I did not eat and she still received a tip, so basically $15 extra on my tab. I will not be returning when I'm back in that area.
This restaurant was located directly in front of the hotel I stayed in. It is a family type restaurant with a quiet vibe. The food portions are GENEROUS and the prices are incredibly reasonable. I enjoyed it so much I ate here the entire hotel stay which kept me from having to locate food elsewhere. I sat at the bar for 2 days and Brandon the bartender was excellent and attentive. My waitress on the first visit was Bonnie and she was very personable. If ever I'm on that side of Katy Freeway, I will definitely stop in.

From time to time we get together with family just to catch up and enjoy each other's company, it's what we do. So this time we decided to eat at Pappy's Cafe. I've never been here and of course I have been told to come and try out the place. So I will let you know staff is really friendly and courteous. We sat down as we were walking in the door and had our drink order within 5 minutes, literally. Our server answered all our questions about the menu just like she was the one who created it. Very knowledgeable, recommended her favorites, best sellers and what plates to share. They serve brunch, which I didn't expect. The food looked awesome when they brought it out, hot and fresh. Very happy with this place. I took some pictures of what we had and the hours they are open. They also have a full bar, so you can order a beer, shot or a favorite drink. They have a $4 margarita that is served all day every day. We really enjoyed it here, we sat there talking away for a couple of hours and we were still asked if we wanted refills or just anything off the menu. No rush to get rid of us at all. We will be back soon and just hang out. Great job guys. Thank you.

I wanted to try something new tonight for lunch and read some of the reviews good and bad so I decided to stop by. I called first the young lady was friendly and helpful. When I arrived I was greeted upon entering and directed where to go for pickup my order wasn’t ready. I waited about 5 min. My order was sit on a table instead of bringing it to me. Then when I got in my car I realized I didn’t get my tea so I went back in and as I stood there for about 3min or so there was this white guy talking to some customers never acknowledged me until I asked him was he the manager and he said yes……I’m like I didn’t get my tea so he went to the back and a young lady came out with the drink. I guess my gut told me to not tip for some reason I just didn’t get a good vibe from the staff. The food was good very small portion for $18…….I am going to give a low rating because they didn’t give me my tea and the manager just plum ignored me. The fish had a good taste the rice was good also the mashed potatoes and green beans had a good taste. Maybe I will go back again maybe for dine in to see how the staff services are rendered.

Had a great meal here tonight. Started with Grilled Scorpain Tails. Excellent mild heat from Jalapeños and tender grilled shrimp. Next up was the Chicken Fried Steak, fork tender and cooked slightly better than medium, the gravy was superb. I'm going to be looking for a reason to come back here.

The people here are so nice! I went here with my mom because it's the type of place I knew she would love. It's not the type of food that I'm really into, but my mom really loved it so we'll definitely come back at some point.

Great selection of "Texas Comfort Food" from fried chicken, chicken fried steak to Tex-Mex. The restaurant is very large and has a private dining room that can be rented out. I had the chicken fried chicken sandwich with fries. The serving size was large and the food was very tasty. Others at my table had fish tacos that they raved about. Prices were fair and the service decent.

A LOCAL Jewel on the I-10, perfect place for a hearty meal in an authentic Houstonian restaurant.
The big chimney gives this place a warm ambiance. The local has a country decoration full of cowboy accesories that made me feel far from the city, maybe in a hut.
Staff is friendly and efficient. I asked some questions about the menu and those were solved easily because our waiter cleary knew the menu and the dish flavors.
As appetizer we had the smokin’ guacamole it came with warm chips next to it.
My husband had a chicken salad, he was happy because, it was big!.
I ordered blacken’d grilled cat fish, it came over a rice bed. And it included two sides, I picked the fried sweet potatoes and the creamed spinach. Everything was delicious and portion were generous.
Definitely come back to try their famous fried chicken.

We've been here 3x already. Our first experience was great. The bartender has amazing customer service and helpful on our first time . Second time we sat in dining area. Our waitress must have been having a bad day because she just did not seem to want to working that day. She did attend to us very well but her attitude just was not pleasant. Our third time returning we brought friends and we ate in bar area. Different bartender and was attentive but he did not have a pleasant attitude. We enjoy this place so far. The food is delicious, but customer service should be addressed.

Amazing atmosphere and friendly staff. Delicious food. We love...well...everything here. But we especially enjoy the chicken fried steak and fajitas. Highly recommend that you put Pappy's Cafe on your list of regular places to dine. Can't go wrong. Enjoy.
