About Buffalo Cafe at the Old Bank

The Buffalo Cafe at the Old Bank is a cozy spot with modern touches like a large TV and barstool window seats in an open seating area. It offers a variety of food that locals enjoy, including favorites like corn nuggets and peanut butter French silk pie, which are both delicious. The corn nuggets are crispy on the outside and have a creamed corn-like texture inside, with a salty-sweet flavor. The pie, despite melting a bit before being eaten, was rich with peanut butter and chocolate, topped with whipped cream, and very tasty. The cafe provides fast service and takes both takeout and dine-in orders, allowing diners to choose where to sit. The owner and staff are friendly, making guests feel at home with southern charm. On a recent visit, homemade chicken salad on toast was a highlight, and sides like onion rings and chicken tenders with fries were made fresh and were delicious. The layout is wheelchair accessible, and there is plenty of parking. The cafe is also known for its history, with Carter pictures hanging on the bathroom wall. While the restaurant can sometimes have long wait times on train days, calling in an order beforehand can help ensure food is ready upon arrival, though it might be cold. Overall, it’s a great place for brunch, lunch, or dinner while passing through Plains.
