Great everything here. I'm not usually one to have pecans in my pancakes, but these were so good i changed my mind a bit. Although, be warned, the pancakes are HUGE. I was expecting some normal sized pancakes and eggs, but no. I got 2 pancakes, both the size of a dinner plate, which I finished at home the following day. It was great.
We had the BEST experience at Allen Cafe! From the moment we walked in, it felt like stepping into a classic old-fashioned diner — cozy, welcoming, and full of charm. Our waitress truly made the experience unforgettable. She made us feel like family, constantly checking on us, making sure everything was perfect, and serving us with such genuine kindness. You can tell the staff really cares about their customers. And the food? Absolutely amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. Every bite tasted homemade. If you’re looking for great service, comforting food, and that nostalgic diner feel, Allen Cafe is the place to go. We’ll definitely be back! ❤️
I love good cooked and cafe style food. After practice my son was craving something full of flavor and fresh. We were not disappointed. We tried the chicken and dumplings, ended up getting 2. And he had the steak egg plate. We enjoyed it all. The servers were very friendly and attentive to our drinks and needs. Will definitely come back to try more. And bring the rest of the family. Thank you everyone at Allen Cafe.
Good old fashioned American cafe with the staples. Specials board with some old school offerings. Good price for literally everything in the menu. Got a very good chuckle from me, the kitchen was a mish mash of English, Spanish and Eastern European languages spoken throughout. Breakfast was good but I think they need to clean the black top. My hash browns tasted burnt and greasy even tho they had a great cook on them.
I normally come to Alan Café to relax and have a good meal. I particularly like to go there after having a fresh haircut. Barber is down the street. This was a very underwhelming experience. I was really looking forward to hot soup and a sandwich. I chose the fresh homemade chili and what I was told was freshly made. Chicken salad. Coffee was good. The chicken salad looked and tasted thrown together with pieces of lettuce , that were seriously off color and taste. The chicken salad had very little flavor, although it was clear that it was fresh. There wasn’t a lot of chili and it was lukewarm at best. Definitely not hot. I usually love this place. I ordered the hot apple pie which I was told is homemade. It is possible that it was homemade, but it wasn’t particularly memorable. Like the sandwich which looked thrown together, the pie also did not look like it was served as much as it was thrown on a plate. The flavor was OK but certainly not good. The chili was flavorful.
