Truly enjoyed everything about our experience at Truman Café & Custard, in January. We will definitely return! Their customer care & service is very accommodating. The atmosphere matched with the food is very appealing. We enjoyed it so much, that we returned several times, during our stay in south Missouri!

What a lovely spot! Very good espresso, friendly staff, and delicious food, including the can’t miss, warm and gooey cinnamon rolls. If you’re looking for a relaxing, nice place to have breakfast and grab coffee, this one is worth the short drive out of Branson (the views along the way are also worth seeing). The food was on the pricier end, but totally worth it.

When a menu is small, you would expect a business to perfect the menu. However, the ice cream is far from perfection. The ice cream was icy and the malt was not as thick as one would desire, despite specifically requesting… On top of the lackluster ice cream, the service was very slow and unprofessional

Great place for a quick breakfast, coffee, or snack. Since there really isn’t coffee shops on every corner of the lodge finding Truman Cafe’ & Custard. Any type of coffee drink you like hot or cold. The inside is open until about 2 then you order from a window outside. We enjoyed biscuits and gravy, yogurts, and quiches during breakfast and some shakes in the afternoon. It overlooks an awesome bunking creak and is part of the lodges shops and spa mall. Plenty of parking and the shuttle picks up and drops off here too. It’s also a walking distance to other great attractions like a marina and cabins.

Really good salads and smoothies, along with desserts and other treats. Beautiful place to eat outside especially in the spring and summer. I’d imagine the fall colors are also beautiful as well. You just can’t beat Big Cedar! Will definitely come back again!

Came to this cafe for breakfast and coffee! Such a cute little cafe with great food and drinks. I don’t have a picture of the breakfast burrito I ordered because it was so good. I asked for a s’mores shake that wasn’t in season anymore for their menu and the manager made it for me!! So good and will definitely come back!! Super nice staff!

Very unique coffee shop near the Big Cedar Lodge registration and spa. Service was very friendly and my chai tea latte was simple and delicious. We didn't have any food besides the yogurt parfait, which my wife enjoyed. Great stop if you're in the BCL/WC area.

Great food, we went there for breakfast and their egg quiche, breakfast sandwich and cinnamon rolls were amazing!

We went for breakfast- twice during our stay- and loved it! Such a cute little place with a wonderful atmosphere. We had muffins and the bacon English muffin. They were both great. Plus- fresh fruit- which was absolutely amazing. We will definitely be going back!

I've been at this cafe many times and never had a problem.
This time when we went we got hot chocolates. They were perfect except they were so hot that even with a small sip you burn your mouth. It felt like the temperature was right below boiling point - I've make them at home and know how hot a drink is at that point.
Unfortunately it happened to myself and a couple adults & kids who I was with.
One of them took a larger sip and it burnt his whole mouth and throat. It's was in the 20°s and we were outside the whole time and it took almost 1/2 hour to cool where it was safe to drink, especially for a kid.
I highly recommend that they would serve them cooler than they currently are.
If a smaller child would burn their mouth it would be an absolutely terrible situation.
Everyone that works there is incredibly kind, it's just an honest mistake/problem that should be addressed.
