Best breakfast. I had the Corn beef hash and my husband had Chicken Fried Steak and both plates were delicious, even the coffee was amazing! Stop by fall for their food as we did. Definitely going back soon !

Back in the day with the original owners Spankys breakfast couldn't be beat. Granted now days, because of Insane President and his tariffs, portions have gotten smaller but I would expect hashbrowns to be more than 5-6 bites and both sides cooked. The biscuits should be flakes not doughy and English muffins should be crunchy not chewy. I used to buy the commuter breakfast sandwich at least twice a week on my way to work. They were a meal in themselves and delicious. Now they are tiny, greasy and the English muffin is basically raw. The eggs Benedict can be eaten with your hands rather than smothered with sauce so you need a fork to eat it. It's so disappointing knowing how excellent spankys used to be and how far it's fallen. It's an absolute insult to the original owners that this place is still called spankeys. I used to crave the stuffed French toast there and now I wouldn't eat it if it was free. Between small portions, the Grease and things being under cooked I'm sad to say spankys Cafe is no longer a place i will eat breakfast. Over the years ive hoped the new owners would step up their game but its just gone dowmhill every time ive been there since they bought the place. I honestly feel bad about this review because for so many years it was the best breakfast in the valley. I know times are tough and cutting corners is a must but have a little pride in your product and at least cook your food all the way.

Great food here, and great service. I learned that cloves keep the ground hornets away from your food, it works!

What a great restaurant up in the mountains. I would come here every time I'm in this area. Get the mess and if you don't get that definitely get the biscuits and gravy. Amazing!! ??
This restaurant is quite the gem! My breakfast scramble was delicious and they had the best pancakes I have EVER tasted. It is cash only (there is an ATM available onsite). The back patio is very cute. A great stop!

We were served quickly. The food was okay, but not great. Breakfast potatoes, hash browns, and corned beef hash was all burnt. The waitress never came back to check on us or refill drinks. We thought our check was rather high, and we were overcharged about $10. We think the waitress had already tipped herself.

Good food, nice patio atmosphere but unfriendly and dishonest staff. We had a large group and most of us enjoyed our breakfast, with the exception of the huevos rancheros (2 eggs on top of a flour tortilla with a side of pico!). From the beginning the service was questionable, there was only one other table dining, yet we were told that “it would take time” before we could even get menus. Once we ordered, everything came out pretty quick. The problem was when the check came. It seemed to be high, so we decided to do the math ourselves. When our waitress noticed that, she came over to “remind” us that the tax is 9.75%, she also offered to give us an itemized receipt and for the first time she showed some friendliness. Once we did the math, her total was indeed considerably higher. Turns out she had already tip herself, but failed to mention it or itemize it, probably in hopes that we wouldn’t notice and tip again. Not only did she include the tip without mentioning it, she added tip to the tax amount as well. And to top it all off, they ONLY take cash. As we were walking out, I noticed that the only other people dining there were also doing the math in their cellphone. If I have to imagine their bill also “seemed” high! And just to be clear, we like to take care of our servers, but hiding the fact that the tip is already included is absolutely dishonest.

I ordered Huevos Ranchero which the cook here always prepares the way I like. Super quick, very friendly staff. AAA rated place. I've had other meals here too.
Food and service are great, but it is CASH ONLY.
