Tex's Cafe

When I was ten my dad took me here before I was taken to a foster home because I was violent at school. He sat me down and I remember that I didn't want to eat but my dad ordered me pancake's. At first I was upset but when they arrived I couldn't help myself. I dug right in and because of that my dad was able to talk to me about the future. I came back to Kearney and didn't ever think about my memories here because I thought they were all bad. One morning I got up early and I drove around to look for a good place for breakfast and then I saw it. This place has been here for years and the food only got better. The people only got nicer, and the memories sweeter. Places like these are the best to go if you are upset because even if you are at a table alone you will have a good meal and the other people in the café are always happy. I think that is what makes it a good place.

The service was good but the food was bland cold and tasted old. Probably will not eat there again.

Powered Gravy, store bought biscuits microwaved. 2 eggs "over medium" runny and cold, warmed up hashbrowns and store bought sausages. All for the low price of 17.45 plus tip.

If you made things fresh food cost would be down and tatse would be up.

Gotta do better, not worth the price.

WAY! Better than Perkins!!! Great (1980's prices) food & service. Biscuits & Gravy, sausage links & 2 eggs over easy Was DA Bomb.

Fun old time downtown cafe! Food was good, people were gracious. Sometimes it pays to venture off the interstate on trips! This was one of those times!

Amazing people and environment! 💯

If you come to this restaurant, you'll have great waitresses, amazing food, and an awesome atmosphere full of down-to-earth people. Best Hot Beef Sandwich in all of Kearney is here and MUST bee ordered!

We happen to be in Kearney Nebraska for a basketball tournament my daughter participated in. We entered the established and was stared at most of the time. The waitress finally took our drink order, two waters and a lemonade. About 15 minutes later our food order was taken. After waiting for more than 45 minutes we never received our food and left (we did pay for the lemonade). By the way, we were the only people of color in the establishment. People came, ate and left. Never experienced this before in all my 45 years. My daughter had tears in her eyes. She couldn't understand why we were treated that way.

Classic hole in the wall - down home cafe. Breakfast served to 11:00. Coffee $2.29.

If you’re looking for that all American classic diner experience, look no further. Great food, great people, great atmosphere. I especially recommend the BLT.
