Cotton Patch is exactly what you think it is. A chain restaurant with good food and acceptable prices. It's not one of our usual places, but sometimes they draw you in. They now have a daily special for $9.99, entree and 2 sides. Monday is chicken fry day, Friday was blackened tilapia but that has changed. Sunday was chicken and dumplings, but that has changed. New specials in the pic. They have some great sides! The squash casserole and the broccoli cheese casserole are my favorites! Like I said, good food at an acceptable price. Let's eat!

Was passing thru and staying the night and searching for a place and saw on the menu "Jumbo Fried Mushrooms $7.49" and I was hooked! The Chicken Fried steak and two sides for $11.99 also had me heading out of the hotel room to the car and tracking the WAZE to get to The Cotton Patch Cafe asap! I had been to other location in other towns but not here and quite frankly not to one in about 8 years cuz I just haven't been near one. The outside of the restaurant looks the same as I remember. Inside was the same ? But a lot more BOOTHS than I remember other places having but I like booths so that's ok. As I opened the menu, knowing what I wanted the waitress stopped by the table for my drink order, I got sweet tea and put in my appetizer order for fried jumbo mushrooms with white peppered cream gravy instead of the ranch dressing. I KNOW. JUST TRY IT SOMETIME. It's so good with fried mushrooms. Then as I looked at the menu, my eye caught something highlighted in yellow, a 12oz Rib eye for just $19.99 with two sides, grilled to your liking. Hmmm. So o changed t that and ordered it med rare with baked potato and bacon green beans. The mushrooms came out first and were untouchable, they were so fresh and hot. Had to let them Cool just a little, then forked one, dipped it in my hot gravy & took a bite and the crunch on the outside of the tempura like batter coating it was amazing, the firm fresh mushroom inside was perfect, flavorful and juicy. So good. I almost devoured the whole order before my main came. My steak was a very nice size, cooked perfectly to my desired temperature. My baked potato was also perfect. With extra butter and sour cream. The green beans was very good. OH, and I almost forgot, they also have and "add-on" special on the menu: you can add. 4 large shrimp to any grilled entree, for only. $4! You can get them grilled or fried. I got 4 grilled. They were kinda. Cajun seasoned, which I didn't anticipate, but it was tasty. They came served in a separate dish on a bed of rice. There are a lot of changes to their menu. Some old favorites are gone now. But some great new dishes are on it now. Here is a NOTE: They DO still have free dinner rolls for the table but you have to ASK FOR THEM. They won't offer and otherwise they won't bring Them. I was told they were having too much waste and many weren't even eating them but once they are served they have to trash them so if you don't eat them you're good. But if you DO.... Now you know. With all this said I WISH we had a Cotton Patch where we live. In El Paso. We could use some competition for Cracker Barrel and some of those better prices in El Paso!! You won't go wrong a topping in here on a road trip!

We have eaten at cotton patch in other towns but this location was by far the best. Husband had chicken fried steak and I had the Cajun duo which is my usual. Kids had kids meals. Everything was delicious and the portions were generous. Our server Jovanni (Jo) was excellent! We will absolutely come back to this location.

They do not serve breakfast, they open at 11am for lunch. They start with warm bread and butter. I had the favorite chicken burger, very very good. Im coming back for the meatloaf. Great service from Michael, checked on me and made sure my coffe was hot, thank you Mike. I sat in back room with lots of sunlight, which is warmer than the main cold darker dinning are, Nice and clean. The menu is great, I'm coming back 2 more times before I leave.

Great food and the service is fast everyone seems to enjoy their time together in a nice place to relax.

Cotton Patch is our go to when we want a home style meal. We're never disappointed. From fresh salad, with their made from scratch dressing and awesome meat loaf.

My friend and I go here for lunch occasionally and I must say, recently, it has really improved in service, temperature of food and taste! I couldn't have said that a couple of years ago. I like the staff they have now and wait times have gotten better. Quality of food has really improved. We will probably go more often.

My love hate relationship with CP is currently on an upswing! Two day journey part one; lunch stop Abilene, Texas. Famished from a 7am breakfast in Oak Hill I needed rolls but seriously considered ordering the skillet cornbread too. Digging into my past I drummed up a comparison today. Black Eyed Pea dotted the landscape of Texas and a few surrounding states early 90's till now one last restaurant in DFW. Imagine 26 sides, brown gravy, fried sides available at your disposal. What they really excel at similar to BEP is vegetables. Best bites were was the squash casserole which was remarkably similar to an old friend. Perhaps better prepared than all previous CP visits in various towns. Mashed taters were good too. My Cajun Duo (Fish/Shrimp) tasted as usual while the GF downed the lunch portion chicken fried chicken. Seated in a back room next to a large group I was worried the service would be lacking; girl did her section proud handling all diners with ease.
