Pope Country Cafe

I really enjoy finding places off the beaten path that had delicious food but one thing that you have to have is consistency or you'll never have a "regulars" that patronize your establishment. This place is hit and miss and depending on who's in the kitchen your food can come out completely different than the time that you had it before.

I usually enjoy the jumbo burgers and onion rings but the burgers have been burnt lately and the onion rings don't have the same breading as they used to so they're not as good (but the tots are pretty good). Chicken tenders were decent and fried green tomatoes were pretty good on the previous visit.

A couple days ago I ordered the taco salad last time but it was completely flavorless and the chips were soggy because it was a go order but they still put it all together like you're going to eat it right there and unfortunately the catfish meal was greasy and bland and ended up going to the dog. 😬

The ladies that work here are very nice and I would enjoy coming here more often if the food was cooked with a little more care and there was a standard of consistency for the restaurant. It's too high priced not to receive what you grow to expect from a prior visit. We wanted a catfish dinner and taco salad and spent $30 which is quite a bit to spend on food that ended up going to the dog. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Wow, talk about a hidden gem for an out-of-towner to stumble upon!

Drove by in the middle of the night hunting for my campground at Enid Lake. I wasn't sure the place was even still in business, as it looked quite rustic in the dark of night.

Was thrilled to find it open the next morning on my way to Batesville for an event, and had the single best breakfast of my weeklong road trip. Tried to go back the next morning but it was closed for mothers day.

To whoever's mom is working at this place, I hope you had a great day off. Thank you so much for your wonderful food and hospitality.

This is one of my favorite places to eat at, but tonight was by far the best. Long story short, we had bad weather come through today and had no idea they were closing early. My husband called to inform even though they were closed-THEY would still be making our order for take out. You would not receive this service at a chain restaurant. If you are ever in the area, please go visit these sweet down home southern people. You truly get treated like family here.

Like so many places now they were shorthanded so a bit of patience is needed. Our waitress was trying to take orders, serve, run register and manage the plate lunch hot table! All with a smile! All in all we had a good lunch.
I couldn't complain while watching her work so hard.

Fun pictures to be taken in the giant size rocking chair posed out front of country store.
The only issue with this store is the lack a visibility to on coming traffic when the parking area is overflowing with trucks

Quick stop for a burger while passing through on motorcycle. Very good burger, fries rolled in flour and cooked, were very good. Friendly service, clean, nice atmosphere. Will stop in next time in the area.

Very very Sweet people. They went out of there way to make sure my dad (who was broke down) was feed. Thank you guys so much! You are truly amazing!

Dad said the food was AMAZING

Great Food Great Staff Great Service to I'll be back Thank You

Employees were nice. Burgers were tasteless. No seasoning at all. Tasted strange. Fries were ok. Over $18 for 2 regular burgers & 2 fries?!? Never again!! **Last night at somebody's house..they ordered a pizza.. wrong sz..crust was burned... cheese too! It would probably have been good if it wasn't burned!!

Excellent stop to fill up at. Had such a good dinner last night, we came right back for breakfast. Orange creamsicle cake for the win !!!
