Chaf-In Restaurant

My husband and I ate here and the food was delicious. Brandy was our server and she was right on time with everything and so friendly. My husband had the country fried steak and I had steak and shrimp. Yum!

This is the absolute best place I have ever had breakfast at! Sweet potato fries😘 and man oh man the biscuits and gravy 😋(I usually don’t eat biscuits because of how dry they are) we will definitely be coming back for lunch! And YES we got to go boxes

I consider myself lucky to have found this Absolute Gem of a restaurant/Cafe!!

The Food - Excellent the best breakfast I’ve ever had from anywhere so good in fact i probably won’t have breakfast anywhere else ever again! And will be back to try lunch and Dinner at some point…

The Service - Terrific they were on point! Polite, nice, fast, and you are not finishing your drink before they are asking you if you need a refill absolutely 0 complaints!

The Atmosphere - Beautiful everything about the decorations and set up just makes you feel cozy and comfortable 🥳🥳

Had a great early morning breakfast! Enjoyed their #2 special, pork chop breakfast, which was extremely flavorful. The hash browns were crispy and the star of the plate. The coffee was fresh and the staff were extremely friendly. The prices were beyond reasonable for a family of three. check this place out whenever you're in the Cleburne area.

I loved the place. Has a train that goes around the dining area. The servers were so kind. And the food was really great. I the chicken fried chicken. The breading was thin so not all greasy. It was really delicious.

Fantastic atmosphere, our kids love the train. The staff is always very friendly and attentive. The food is always hot, tastes great and comes out fast. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

I wish I had taken a pic. I got salmon, baked potato, and mixed fresh vegetables. It was so good! Everything. And we had a sweet waitress that took great care of us. Good job, Chaf-In!

Great food. Good pricing. Attentive service. Loved loved loved their Cleburne burger with onion rings. Well adorned old school esentric decor. Wished we lived closer.

I found this restaurant by accident while looking for another one. I am so glad we stopped here instead. I was surprised that I couldn't find one fault, the food was great seasoned just right even the sweet tea was on point! I never find sweet tea that is perfect!
I was really impressed when I asked if I could get the dressing that came with a different plate and our waitress, Danielle, said that was no problem. And it didn't cost extra either like some places.She was great and knew all the history of the place and the owner. And I give her props for keeping a smile and great attitude because she was working it while pregnant!

Super cute restaurant with a train running around overhead. Calm, relaxing atmosphere. I had the blt with avocado. It was delicious! I should have ordered the fries well done as they were disappointingly uncrunchy. My waiter was a nice, young man. The pies sounded tasty, but I ran out of room. Lol.

This is a home cooked meal type place. It has been in cleburne for years! Always great food and worth coming back to. The decor has much of cleburnes history on it with the rail road and trains plastered every where. I will say the used to have a train going around the top trim that went in tunnels and thelastti.e I went I was not going around. That was kind of disappointing being I loved to show my littles this when we would go.

Been here since 1920?! I can see why!!
Comfortable atmosphere (Love the train)
Friendly staff, the owners helped bus tables

Food was just phenomenal, every town needs a place like this. They have a very large menu, and everything I have seen and tested was really good.

Came to this chaf-in based on looking over Yelp and getting a recommendation from a museum employee in town.

- First thing is the fact there's plenty of parking
- the menu is very basic
- the restaurant is pretty small but cozy

I ordered just breakfast as was quite satisfied as was like a home cooked type of meal.

Highly recommend

Great diner-style menu options, & they serve breakfast all day. A must try for an ol'style, hot & flavorful, diner meal with large portions & great customer service! Great value, too. Six adults enjoyed a full breakfast and drinks for just over $50. Every time we're in Cleburne, this is one of our MUST STOP spots to enjoy a quality meal.

Great small town cafe with good food at reasonable prices. The service is great. It's a small but well themed railroad atmosphere.

Parking spaces are numerous. The waitress was so pleasant. The food was great. A comfy cozy historic atmosphere. Limited seating. Little train running along a track. We loved the food and service and we will definitely return.

The BEST cheeseburgers!!!! Fries are fresh cut and hot. The place is set up family style so you meet new friends!

Hey, weary US-67 traveler: are you tired of crummy gas station food and craving some real cuisine? Do your eyes need a rest from looking out for the seemingly endless speed traps? Well, look no further than Chaf-In.

This place is pretty popular, so parking is a bit hard to get once you get there, but once you're inside, you'll be greeted with welcoming, antique-feeling décor, my favorite of which is the model Union Pacific train running along the rafters. You can just take a seat wherever, and someone will be with you rather quickly, usually within a minute or two, to take your drink order and give you their menu. They have a rather large menu with all the diner classics, plus some novelties. Breakfast is served all day, but so is lunch and dinner for that matter.

About the prices: I got a 6oz steak, sunny side up eggs, hash browns, and biscuits with gravy for $9.99. Despite that price, there was absolutely no compromise on quality. In fact, it's easily some of the best diner food I've had. It's easy to see why this place has been around for over 100 years. Perhaps it would be wise to drop in to this place before it gets on Guy Fieri's show and they raise the prices.

All-in-all: it's a great place with excellent food and a very welcoming environment. It's more than worth the short diversion off of the highway.

This place has been around since 1920. Great food, and they also have a toy train that goes around the top of the room.

Just happened to meet up with family members for lunch here. It was a great experience. Now I know why they have been in business since the 1920s.
