My in-store dinner was great – as usual. Rachel was great – as usual. I got the new pecan cobbler to take home. The cobbler was apparently warmed up in the styrofoam container (which I did not need since it was “to go”). When I tried to warm it the next day (in my own bowl), it was melted to the styrofoam container and I was only able to eat less than 1/2 of the cobbler. I’d like a replacement dessert on my next visit.

Dined in today with hubby. Food was great as usual. The chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes are always very very good! Also had the chips and queso today and was not disappointed. I wanted to leave this review to give a high five to our server Ty. He was wonderful! Very polite, responsive and obviously a great asset to your team. I think he deserves a raise LOL!

This place rocks! The mac and cheese was mediocre but other than that, everything was great! The chicken and dumplins was great as well as the roasted turkey and cornbread stuffing! Will be coming back for sure!

Service was fine. The food was nothing special. The chicken fried chicken (classic size) felt quite small, especially seeing their was a small size. It was 14.99 for the meal. The side portions also felt small. Coast about $20 for one person for this meal and an iced tea. Way overpriced for taste and portion size. The chicken wasn’t overly tender for the price and the batter on the chicken wasn’t anything special. Would not eat again.

Yesterday was our first visit, and had one of the best lunches that I have ever had! The grilled blackened tilapia was OUTSTANDING, as were the sides. I would highly recommend going to this restaurant.

Our waiter Jaqueline was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. She greeted my family with genuine warmth and made us feel welcome right away. Throughout the meal, she anticipated our needs before we even had to ask—refilling drinks, offering recommendations, and checking in at just the right moments. Her professionalism and kindness elevated our entire experience. We left feeling incredibly well cared for, and we’ll definitely be returning because of her!

I had an amazing experience at Cotton Patch, and I’ve gotta say—the chicken absolutely stole the show. From the moment my plate hit the table, I could tell this was going to be good. The chicken was cooked perfectly: hot, juicy, and full of that comforting, homestyle flavor Cotton Patch does so well. The seasoning was spot-on—not bland, not overpowering—just rich, savory, and satisfying in every bite.

What really stood out was how fresh and hearty everything tasted. This wasn’t fast-food chicken pretending to be comfort food; this was real, down-home cooking that feels like it was made with care. The breading (if fried) was crispy and golden without being greasy, and the meat itself was tender and flavorful all the way through. If it was grilled, it was still incredibly juicy and well-seasoned—no dryness at all.

The sides were just as good and paired perfectly with the chicken. Everything felt warm, filling, and nostalgic, like the kind of meal that instantly puts you in a better mood. Portion sizes were generous too—I definitely left full and happy.

On top of the food, the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. It’s the kind of place where you can relax, take your time, and really enjoy your meal.

Overall, Cotton Patch delivered exactly what you hope for—and more. If you’re craving comforting, well-cooked chicken and a classic Southern-style meal, this place is absolutely worth it. I’d gladly come back again. Five stars, no question.

We spoke with a lady name Jennifer (I might have missed heard her name) but she was a delight to speak with. We had our 6th Anniversary dinner date today, it was a day late. We told her that yesterday was our 6 year anniversary, and we always come here on Jan 10th to celebrate but we missed our dinner date, since it was our wedding day. We told her about how we always share the black berry cobbler. When we got our ticket she had blessed us with a free cobbler. It was a nice and wonderful surprise.

It’s was alright. I however ordered the Turkey Dinner and they gave me a lot of skin and not much meat. It was tough, so my dog got a treat. Also they put brown gravy on the turkey and stuffing, but put white gravy on my mashed potatoes, that was weird. Service was good though.
