Review
Inside a Cotton Patch Café is like being at home. It is family friendly, laid-back restaurant, and set-up in a spacious area that carries a country home appeal.
It offers Southern fried cooking with Texas-size portions. In Cotton Patch, all orders come in plus size servings with plus size flavors too!
Have some of their Chicken Fried Chicken, a chicken breast breaded and deep fried to perfection. Couple that with a Dr. Pepper Chocolate Cake and you are in for a treat!
With the great food comes exceptional service. At all Cotton Patch locations, servers are warm and friendly. They ensure that the quality and delicious food is served within short wait times.
