Bison Cafe, Quitaque TX

Great service, great food, cool people. Definitely stop by if you're on your way to Cap Rock.

The food was absolutely delicious and the service was wonderful! Would absolutely recommend!

I stopped here during a visit to Caprock Canyons earlier this year. Food was delicious! I had the Texas Toothpick Burger. All their burgers sounded so good, it was hard to decide what to get. Atmosphere was nice. Service was a little slow when I visited, but they had a notice up that they were short-staffed then. I would definitely return.

I was so pleasantly surprised by the Bison Cafe. We were at Caprocks Canyons State Park to see the bison and wanted a late lunch afterwards, so we drove into town the the cafe. I did not expect to find anything for a vegetarian to eat at a small restaurant in a small town in west Texas, but I found their salad bar to be well-stocked, varied, and fresh. The servers were all very polite and helpful, and both the homemade banana pudding and the cherry cobbler were delish. If you find yourself in this neck of the woods, I can recommend the Bison Cafe - just maybe take it easy on the deep fried options, because there are a lot of them!

I don't know how to put it, they serve a bodacious burger! Hand made, fresh, big burger. I had a chile rellano, guacamole burger covered in queso. One of the best fried chile rellano's I've had sat on top of a scoop of homemade guacamole on top of a huge handmade hamburger patty, smothered in melted queso.and a pile of fresh crisp fries. Simply the best, it is worth the drive. My hats off to the chef! My wife ordered the green Chile, Swiss, mushroom burger, equally as tasty, but she had to get a Togo box for the other half.

Pleasant atmosphere, nice and cool for this hot weather, friendly. Food excellent. Had a great meal with family. Had the buffet, and salad bar.

We stopped on our way out of Caprock Canyon, we got in right before 3pm, we got seated and they took our orders
We had 2 Bacon cheese burgers, 1 cheese burger and a chicken fried chicken burger, with onion rings and fries. We loved our food, the outside decor is great and the inside is awesome. I look fwd to going back to try more food. The owner was super friendly and even gave us dessert.
We wish her and her staff great success and may the Lord continue to bless them

The 4th of July buffet was very, very good. The selection was fresh, variety was All American favorite comfort foods!

I am so thankful we had the opportunity to eat there!

We stayed in Caprock Canyon for two days and had lunch here. The place was packed but was worth the wait Had THE BEST burger ever!

Delicious burgers! It was our first time there after visiting Caprock Canyon. Friendly service! Super busy, so wait time was high, but well worth it! Definitely plan on coming back!:)

Keep in mind this is a family owned and operated establishment. There will be closures due to illness, funerals, family emergency, and so forth. The owner will almost always make these closures known via their Bison Cafe Facebook. This can also be said of fluctuating hours. This is a town with a population of not even 400, good help is hard to come by and they have the best of the best working whenever they can. More often than not there is only 2 cooks in a kitchen that can house 5 and 2 waitstaff when there could easily be 4. The employees are always making changes and efforts to improve speed and service.
All this being said, this is the best restaurant to eat at in the area. The food is exceptional and always fresh. Hardly anything on the menu is frozen. The hamburgers are pressed fresh daily and the fried food is hand battered. The employees take great pride in the food they make and the locals know that their meal is worth the wait.
Great care went into making this establishment what it is with many hands from the community and family to help build it up and keep it running. Keep this is mind when you have become frustrated with “long wait times” or a member of the crew having an off day. More now than ever we must support small businesses and treat those working in these establishments with kindness.

Great food, huge portions. The Mozarella sticks are an absolute must. Everything was fresh and to order.

New waiter is awesome communicator, server. He deserves a raise. Never been disappointed with food quality.

Don't be in a hurry! This cafe is delishiously awesome. The cafe ambience is sweet and great food to be had. They've limited hours, so plan accordingly, don't miss this home town treat.

You must stop here if your near Caprock Canyons. Come hungry leave happy and full. I noticed the previous posts about slow service but this was not my experience. I was able to get in and out under an hour; and that’s only because I was taking my time. I ordered texas toothpicks, SteakFingers with curly fries and a side salad with jalapeño ranch. The steak fingers were adult sized to say the least. They were crispy on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. The texas toothpicks were outstanding. I will definitely be back.
