The only reason they're not rated higher is because of their hours and people who dont understand restaurants. Great food and even better service! A must try in

The seating area was quiet and the staff were friendly and laid back, less rushed than Dennys.

This restaurant is hiding in a gas station, only open for lunch on weekdays, and has some of the best food you'll eat anywhere. For example, on Fridays they do a Fried Catfish plate (pic included.) I've ordered it a number of times, and it's the best catfish in central Texas. The hamburgers too are as good as it gets in Central Texas. Every menu item seems to be made with an old timey approach to diner food - where it's fast, tasty, inexpensive, and filling. I drive more than 25 miles one way to eat here, and do so about 6 times a year (would be more if they were open on Saturdays). The staff is friendly, too. Love love LOVE this place.

It's absolutely perfect diner food. The burgers had a bit of a crispy edge, the fries were not greasy and everything was just perfectly old fashioned.

They don’t have the decency or know how to update their hours online. It shows that they’re open at 10:40am on Google. I walked in and the lady, who wasn’t exactly pleasant by any stretch, told me they close at 10 and reopen at 11. Glad I planned my morning trip from Leander to Dallas around this cafe being open.

The food was pretty good but I'm giving it a 3 star because it's very pricey for what you get. I probably will not go back. There are other options that are just as good for an affordable price.

Good gracious the food we got from the Corner Cafe was absolutely delicious. Portions were satisfying and quality was top notch. Definitely worth a stop if you are in the area.

First of all, it is at a gas station but don't let that fool you. This little gem is a great find. It's small, only 8 tables and they cook stuff one at a time but boy oh boy was it good. We had dinner on a Tuesday. I had a schnitzel burger and he had the brat plate with German potatoes & purple cabbage. Quite possibly the best German potatoes I have ever had. The schnitzel burger was tender & moist with an ausjus to pair. We also had brat fries by mistake but they were super yum as well. We also had dessert- German chocolate cake & cheesecake. The German chocolate cake was light & airy with great flavors. The cheesecake was cheesecake. We will be back to try more stuff for sure.

It is in a gas station but the service was outstanding and the food was unique and delicious. A Texas flare on German food. Loved it!
They have surprisingly good burgers and great prices.

Was in the Jarrell, Texas area for work today, and I asked my customers where I could find a good burger close by. The unanimous answer was “the cafe at the Texas Truck Wash” in a gas station. Looked like a hole in the wall cafe, but glad we tried it!!Bacon Cheeseburger 9/10 - thick and juicy patty with fresh veggies. The bacon was meh, but the burger overall was incredible!Curly Fries 7/10 - slightly crunchy and great flavor.Sweet Tea 5/10 - it’s was decent.Atmosphere 6/10 - no frills, hole in the wall cafe.Service 6.5/10 - it was ok. The staff overall were nice.Definitely recommend this cafe!!

This is a small 5 table hole in the wall at a gas station. The chicken fried steak dinner is phenomenally good. Nice owner too.
