Quite good food worth the drive
Fantastic lunch stop in Plains. Friendly staff and biker friendly. Has a large covered (climate controlled) back patio for groups.
If you haven't been to Buffalo Cafe, you're missing out on some of the best bistro like cuisine. I had the chilli slaw all beef hot dogs and they were out of this world! I'll definitely be back for more!
This cozy cafe boast modern touches like a huge TV and barstool window seats in the open seating area. This was my first visit and we arrived at 1:30 (they close from 2-5 during the week). The owner was super nice and made us feel at home. Southern charm at its best!! It was a tough decision between the country fried steak, but homemade chicken salad won on this visit. The chicken salad (on toast) did not disappoint! Side of onion rings and the kiddos chicken tenders/fries were all made fresh to order & were delicious as well. If you're traveling through Plains this is the perfect cafe for brunch/lunch or stop in for dinner.
Great local restaurant with a nice selection of dishes, deserts, and drinks including beer and wine. Located in the old bank building the atmosphere is small town cozy. Food was good. We had the daily special steak and Swiss with sweet potatoes fries, Southern Berger, onion rings and a grilled cheese. Staff is friendly and efficient. We were even surprised with a sample of a a freshly made delicious blueberry crumble cake.
I only got the corn nuggets and the peanut butter French silk pie, but they were both delicious. The service and food preparation were also very fast. They do takeout and dine-in, and you can choose where to sit. The corn nuggets are really good! They're crispy on the outside with a creamed corn-like texture on the inside that has a balanced, salty-sweet flavor. Unfortunately, by the time I was able to eat the pie, it had melted a bit, but it was still very good. It's a peanut butter and chocolate flavor with a soft crust and topped with whipped cream. It's quite decadent.
I love this cute little cafe that is in an old bank! The food was awesome and the staff was friendly. Would totally go and have lunch there again!
Loved our experience here! Came to town to visit Jimmy Carter's hometown and learn more about him, which led us to the Buffalo Cafe at the Old Bank. The food was wonderful and prompt. I had the sweet potato fries as well, so super yummy! Highly recommend!
