Tip Top Cafe Reviews
Every thing is perfect, homemade taste & king size portions. I love everything about this place. To watch the tray of butter ed rolls come out from the kitchen fresh & hot. It’s like stepping back in time before microwaves & process fast food. A real delight !
I had good food and service here while waiting out a rain and hail storm.
Wait staff was awesome. Food sucked. The chicken fried steak was all breading. The “cream” gravy was yellow and had a weird tasted that we couldn’t figure out. Not sure why they have all those awards. I will not be going back. Don’t waste your time.

Tip Top Cafe has been a San Antonio staple for many years, known for its dive atmosphere. The restaurant is famous for its chicken fried steak, which is massive in size and considered the best anywhere by many. The onion rings are a must, often described as hand battered and a meal in themselves. The Thursday special features Meatloaf or Fried Catfish, with excellent sides. However, recent experiences vary. Some find the food is not the same, tasting totally different, with the place looking run down and dingy. Others report soggy onion rings and a chicken fried steak that is too thin and tasteless, leading to disappointment. Service can be slow one day and great the next during crowds. Despite these mixed reviews, the cafe still has loyal fans who find the atmosphere cozy and friendly, with the absolute best service and amazing food, recommending it wholeheartedly.
