Just had lunch here and it was phenomenal. The chicken fry and their homemade fries are among if not the best I've ever had. Delicious homemade gravy. The building is very rustic, which fits the theme of the area, but may not be everyone's cup of tea. This is definitely on the list of places to return to. Do note that they only serve breakfast and lunch.

A wonderful little artisanal spot with a warm and welcoming staff. The coffee was just the right level of robust for me and the sausage skillet was fresh, an excellent serving size and really pretty in presentation.The omelet was hearty but not heavy and adding the jalapeños brought it over the top for me.

I have been here for breakfast and lunch, and both times, the food and service were excellent. I got the quiche, and my husband got the biscuits and gravy. With the first bite, we both looked at each other in amazement. The crust of my quiche was so buttery and flaky. The mixture of egg and veggies was fresh and had a great texture. The biscuits were fresh, and the gravy had lots of sausage in it.Their frites are amazing too! We loved them as a late afternoon snack. Their coffee is tasty and strong. Great place!

What a great little spot I Buffalo Gap! The staff were very friendly and the food was awesome. I ordered the biscuits and gravy for breakfast and they had just sold out. So instead of asking me to order something else, the kitchen staff whipped up a fresh batch of biscuits just for me! The gravy was homemade and the meal was delicious. I highly recommend paying them a visit.

I’m a regular at the Gap Cafe. I love the atmosphere, it’s intimate, not a lot of tables, so not noisy; very comforting feel, cabin-like interior. I put a lot of emphasis on atmosphere, but you do need good food to keep you coming back. Food is good, not a lengthy menu, but I’m not looking for lots of variety. We usually go for breakfast. Lunch is served as well. Good service; often meet other friendly customers when we’re there. Always go across the street to the Market after a meal. Another very cozy space with exceptionally friendly staff. They feel like old friends.

I was visiting friends in Abilene just north of here. I had already had chicken fried steak in Abilene that was delicious and wanted some more, so we drove to this place on a Monday I think. Very quaint, picturesque place inside and out. Very small place. Excellent food, excellent prices, and coffee was great. I actually bought the mug in the photo. This place is part of Perini Ranch, and the meat is literally from right down the road. They also run an upscale steakhouse nearby. Worth a trip if you're ever in Abilene. There is also an historic town here (closed on Sunday and Monday) that I am sure is worth visiting. Plus you'll drive by a gas station/grocery store that looks to be straight out of an early 20th century movie.

Bufalo Gap Cafe is overrated. My wife and I drove from Abilene to Buffalo Gap since friends recommended this place. We had to wait for twenty-five minutes for a table. That made our expectations grow a bit more since we thought that high demand meant excellent food." I was wrong. I ordered "Chilaquiles Verdes". It took an hour to get our food!The chilaquiles are plain chips with a tasteless green salsa and chicken; I ate half of it because I was hungry and not because I enjoyed them. The coffee is excellent, and the servers are pretty nice.

Recently I visited for Abilenes Pride and to support my dearest friend James Wagstaff. We ate here for brunch and MAN! It was amazing! I love the fruit salad we had and the steak sandwich.Cassara took very good care of us and was such a delight to have with her amazing personality! Can’t wait to come back and visit!

The food is PHENOMENAL. The service was friendly, but the timeliness of the delivery of our meal was awful. Hope they work on speeding things up in the kitchen. I’ll definitely return, but won’t wait until I’m starving to go.Entreé pictured is the steamy sandwich.

Great bakery and lunch choices! On a repeat visit, food was great but they forgot to bring us our food, so it was cold.

We took the 20 minute drive to try out this cafe we have been hearing about and boy were we impressed! The cafe itself is so charming! The customer service was so friendly and inviting! We had a chicken fried steak and a grilled chicken sandwich...both came with fries and both were so delicious! We got a key lime pie to go and that was so good as well! This is definitely a nice little place to hit up for a lunch date with a friend or grab a coffee and pastry and just enjoy your company and the atmosphere. We can't wait to go back and try their breakfast!

Great food! The sausage and biscuits were the best I have had. The latte was perfectly made. Relaxed atmosphere makes you want to linger over your food and coffee.

We visit here pretty regularly and it's consistently great!! The croissant breakfast sandwich is a must!! It's homemade croissant and it's done right!! The Cafe has a nice quaint atmosphere and the staff is always friendly and attentive. The lunch choices are also pretty spectacular!

We ordered 2 patty melts, chicken fried steak, and cowboy coffee. The coffee had clearly been sitting on the burner too long. When we all sampled the chicken fried steak, there was a clear taste of fish in the coating. Patty melts were fine. Service was good and the cookies from the bakery were delicious.

My wife and I showed up at 9 am on a Saturday morning for breakfast. We were immediately seated and there was no crowd. We placed our order at about 9:10 and waited over an hour without someone checking in with us about the status of our order. Our server came by once and refilled a coffee but said nothing about the status of our food. Another waitress came by and saw we had been waiting a long time and checked and said that our order was never received by the kitchen. Easily could have been avoided by our server communicating with us and checking in periodically. Instead no one checked in with us for over an hour. Saturday morning wasted.

The first time I experienced the Cafe - was great. The second time was a disappointment. The waitress was distracted and simply too busy. We got seated right away but waited a long time- eventually our meals arrived at different times and were not right or incomplete. Food wasn’t great. The young lady that waited on us wasn’t attentive or kind- just there. Maybe they could use some training and more assistance. I know it’s hard to find good help lately.
