This review is for the location in McAllen, TX. This location opened fairly recently and like most BB locations is pretty popular, particularly at breakfast times. Since we've visited BBD in other locations on the west coast we knew "what they were about" and for the most part we like the food they serve. At least occasionally. Our first visit was a couple weeks after they opened and there were still a LOT of employees, many still "in training". We were there during the breakfast hours and it was busy, but not overwhelming... read more
First time trying this and the breakfast was delicious!! The service was excellent too. It's a wonderful establishment with home cooking vibes to it. Highly recommend this location.
Breakfast was scrumptious! Pancakes were fluffy and sweet plus their bacon is the best. Crisp and thick sliced! Hubby had biscuits n gravy... very tasty but needed a bit more gravy for size of biscuits. Remember the best, breakfast is served all day!
Very surprised at how large the menu was. I now understand why this place is always crowded. The food was very good and the service was over the top. Next time I'm in McAllen I know where to eat.
Menu is huge take your time to read through it. Portions a HUGE so carefully order unless you expect to take home leftovers. BTW the meals come with a homemade yeast Roll as big as your FIST. Would come back.
Went to this chain in Nevada and Utah. So glad we got one here. Consistent quality food and service.
All I can say is I am definitely coming back here again. Love it!!! So satisfying! Love the server Bianca she was amazing
I like their breakfast menu. Biscuits are good. And pies are also good . The wait is worth it .
This place is a big step up from any other. The food is magnificent with every bite being worth it. If you try this place please don't let a small detail bother you cause there is just so much that out weighs the cons. The staff is friendly and the service is great even on a busy day. If you decide to try it out, I highly suggest the cream waffle. It has a sweet flavor that melts in your mouth. Definitely my favorite place in McAllen.
