Andy's Country Kitchen

Andy’s is THE place to go for a pleasant, home-cooked dining experience in CC, especially for breakfast. 🍳 Expect a bit of a wait, but even @ that, the servers get everyone sat & accommodated as quickly as possible. Food was fantastic, my coffee was always full, & everyone was super pleasant. Definitely can’t go wrong w/ their blueberry muffins. Thanks to Cristina R. for ensuring our breakfast plates of corn beef hash & breakfast omelette were all set. 🥘 We’ll be back!

My husband and I opened a restaurant right after our wedding making it difficult to go out to eat! We went for breakfast today and it was so so amazing. We like to sit at the counter to watch all the action. The food was out promptly, hot, coffee refills hot, the service outstanding, I think it was Meagan. Owners are salt of the earth. That means alot in a small community like ours. We will definatly be back soon. Thank you! Update~ my eggs benny, homemade ranchero sauce, and BUTTERSCOTCH PIE was out of this world today. Totally hit the spot. Thank you Andy's Kitchen for being the best breakfast spot in corpus christi.

Andy's restaurant is so popular. The people that work there are so friendly and they are just like family to each other. And welcome, everybody in food is amazing. You need to stop by and look at the trend. They have that goes around the whole restaurant.

They just “get it”! Reminds me of a diner circa 1980. Honest helpful staff, great food! Breakfast menu was a solid choice of traditional american options and Mexican options. Food was fantastic! Portions were rational, and flavorful. My coffee cup stayed full the whole meal, every staff ensured we were cares for. Skip the fast food and try this local joint!

I’m from San Antonio and as a regular visitor to Corpus Christi I wish I had found this place a long time ago! When I first drove down Staples Road to look for this restaurant I saw that the parking lot was full… and thought to myself “That’s a GOOD SIGN!”. I went in and found out for myself why this is a popular spot- great service, a clean atmosphere, and mindblowingly good food! I enjoyed a complimentary blueberry muffin before my order of Oreo Pancakes and bacon landed on my table- and while that sounds like something very simple… it was very enjoyable! I took a dozen of those blueberry muffins to go and shared them with the staff of the hotel I’m staying at on Padre Island who have always been very kind and helpful to me. They really enjoyed them! I look forward to being back here again soon. The staff here obviously works hard to earn our business and I appreciate everything they do to create a wonderful experience!

Everything we ordered came out delicious!!!!! The customer service at this restaurant is very good and all employees were very friendly and mindful of what we needed weather it was a coffee refill our anything else, great atmosphere as well.

This wasn’t the little restaurant I expected. The food was great, the place was lively and the train going round the restaurant was really interesting. The wait was a little long, but the food made up for it.

Wait.. how have I not been here before? My son is usually in charge of picking out restaurants for us to eat at when we travel. We roll up for breakfast and were immediately seated. I loved the two trains they had running on tracks in the ceiling. It was very nostalgic. The young lady who was our service was on top of it. She made sure our drinks were full and we had everything we needed. My kid had ordered eggs and she asked him what kinds of salsa he wanted and brought all of them they had available, including two they made homemade. They also brought out homemade blueberry muffins that were hot. As I am eating one, I look over and noticed they had all kinds of homemade baked goods available. I am glad we got there when we did, as the restaurant had filled out quickly. The food was amazing and the service was also stellar. I will definitely be back the next time I am in town.

The restaurant was excellent! The food was absolutely delicious and everything came out fresh and full of flavor. The service was outstanding and the staff made us feel very welcome from the moment we walked in. You can tell they take pride in both their food and customer service. We will definitely be coming back again soon and highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food and a great dining experience.

This location is a standalone restaurant in a large plaza with plenty of parking. There isn't any gluten free or vegan options. We were greeted and seated right away. You can tell there are lots of regulars by the way they walked in and grabbed silverware and were greeted by the servers. They bring fresh blueberry muffins to each table. There is a big menu. There isnt a lot of windows but there is a lot of decor to look around at. The food comes out quick. The portion size is appropriate and not alot of leftovers. I really enjoyed my eggs Benedict, the eggs were poached well and the hollandaise was really good. It is worth a stop to check out.

I loved this food and the vibe here is fantastic and old school. I will come back every time I visit corpus! Locals abound! When I retire I'll be sitting at the breakfast bar with my buddies and coffee!

A cozy country diner charting its origins to a coffee shop founded in Corpus in 1958, with the full-service restaurant opening in 1978, to ownership passed down through their "favorite" veteran waitress. It's filled with family and food that reminds me of home, and a warm blueberry muffin served with every seating. Servers dressed in pink for October's breast cancer awareness bustle around the kitchen that remains busy but collegial, taking care of guests like good neighbors. I was steered towards one of my old favorites - Chicken & Waffle (a Texas classic!) with juicy chicken strips in lightly peppered batter contrasting with a crisp Belgian ("Andy's") waffle and fresh maple syrup. Cream gravy, if you please, and Strawberry Shortcake if you're traveling with an extra sweet tooth! P.S. The hashbrowns really are ALL that!

First time dining here. Rustic decor and they have a train on tracks traveling inside the diner. So neat. Staff is friendly and attentive. Our server was Anna she was helpful and answered all my questions. This place is very popular so arrive early when you go on the weekend. All the food was delicious and not over cooked. Establishment is kept clean. Definitely recommend this place

It is a quaint old place but you can see it is being updated. They have a train going around overhead. The food is very good my Bff & I had the turkey which was so good. I didn't care for the soup it was so thick yuck. Everything else was so good. My BF had the omelet which he said was excellent. The waitress was friendly, helpful in making our choice, kept getting interrupted but someone else helped. We plan on going again. No pics we were starving

The service was slow and after asking for hot fresh fries I received counter warm fries. After several visits to Andy's I finally got what I thought was idiot proof. The clubhouse club. Today I was proven wrong. First the sandwich looked like a 2 year old put it together. I pieced the toast and discovered that the sandwich was built on one side of the bread and cut on the other side. Un even pieces. They used about a pound of wilted yellowed lettuce and only 1 thick slice of tomato. I disassembled the sandwich and and tried to get a photo as proof but the waitress took it away too soon. If it was just me I would NEVER come here. But my wife loves the place. But she always orders a Mexican breakfast.

Wait was brief despite being full. Hostess and waitress provided excellent service. The food was good but not great. My partner and I shared the breakfast enchiladas with hasbrowns, beans, and toast. This had potential, but it was not hot enough (temperature-wise) for me nor did they have a hot version of salsa. However, the enchiladas were solid Tex- Mex. Our son ordered the chicken and waffles. The chicken was in the form of tenders and they had a tasty breading. He was pleased. We have been here in the past and will return.

I know this is a staple in Corpus, but the last few times we've been here, it's only gone downhill which it's a little sad because this used to be our go to place for breakfast on the weekends. The muffins are a nice little treat while we wait for our food. We normally go here for the Chicken Fried Steak, and the most recent time we came, I couldn't even finish it. When our food got to our table, the first time I noticed was the amount of grease on our steak. I had to use a couple napkins to dab off the grease. I also noticed how sloppy it is when it came to plating, I'm not saying it needs to be some kind of Michelin star plating, but the hashbrowns seems like it just gets thrown onto the plate, and half the time there are hardly any crispy edges to them. I don't think we will be coming back nor recommending this place here anymore.

I really dig this place, i've been here a few times now & each time the service was very homey & friendly. the place itself gives small town diner vibes, & i'm here for it! the wait can be a bit long especially on the weekends, but i feel it's worth the wait with the food coming out nice and hot & their coffee really hitting the spot each time! i've had omelettes, waffles, & this recent time the country fried chicken with potatoes & overeasy eggs , & i tell ya, the breading *chef's kiss* is order that again 10 fold cause, my word... so so delicious!! Check it out sometime during the week when ya can if you don't want a long wait! if you have the time, i say go for it the weekend then!

Wonderful home cooking. We were seated and noticed a model train in the ceiling. Really cool as it travelled around They brought us warm blueberry muffins before we ordered. My wife had the waffle (they have real maple Syrup) and I had short stack blueberry pancakes. Both well done. I got the hash browns and added green peppers and onions and jalapeños. Just wow. This is a "local" place, not a tourist restaurant. Omar was fast and efficient on coffee and keeping the water refilled. You want a good inexpensive breakfast? You want to eat here. Our second visit I got the enchiladas without the chili as I am vegetarian. Picture attached. Excellent second visit. Their cook knows what they are doing.

I don't know how this place has 4.5 stars. I would give it 2.5 stars at best. Don't get me wrong the service is good and our server was nice, but our food was not good. I had such high expectations, but my significant other and I left a little disappointed with the food. We went for brunch and tried their eggs Benedict, french toast, and beef nachos. The eggs were not poached properly- the yolk was very hard. The french toast was nothing special. I could make a better tasting french toast at home. The beef nachos also did not taste good and only served my significant other like 10 chips?! They also gave you complimentary blueberry muffins while you wait, but the muffin was dry and there were just tiny specks of blueberries. Overall the food was just not flavorful and not 4.5 stars worthy. Unfortunately, I personally would not recommend or go back if visiting CC, TX again :/

It was a very long wait and I didn't think it was worth it at all. The muffins they give you with breakfast were good but not very sweet. I split the french toast and veggie omelet with someone and I could definitely make them better at home. The french toast was thin and bland. The omelet was so wet and broke apart easily and was also bland. I would swear the hash browns came out of a freezer bag. Service was excellent and the vibe is nice. But I definitely wouldn't go back and don't understand the hype at all.

Amazing place. Food was perfectly cooked and delicious even when we asked for modifications - perfectly done. Service was perfect. Every future waitress in America should spend a week with Michelle to learn what exceptional service is. Can't say enough nice things about this place - food service ambience- it is an absolute gem

The food was excellent at Andy's restaurant. Excellent coffee, the best biscuits and gravy I ever ate and very pleasant service. On my second visit I had French toast. It was very, very good.

such amazing food. my party got the andys country plate, french toast and the omlette. I had the french toast and it was sooo good! the country plate was so big lol so i got to have some of that and everything was pretty good but needed salt. The service was so great since it was super busy, but our waiter kept coming to check on us. the place does not look great on the outside so it was shocking that it was cute inside lol. im not from corpus but would for sure come back here if im in town.

The food is great and the muffins are the best even by themselves really good they have a little bit of everything you could eat and the service is good also highly recommend

Get the chicken and waffles.... it was TOTALLY worth the wait. Depending on the time you get there, expect a wait. Great service too!

Andy's Kitchen is a very cute country diner with all of the dishes you would expect. They also have a Tex-Mex section of the menu along with lunch too. Turn the menu to the back and you can read about their history which was fun! I have heard so much about the free blueberry muffins and they don't taste like blueberry! It's a vanilla muffin with flecks of blueberry. What we ordered: Corned Beef Hash - The corned beef came out as patties which was strange. They tasted okay but were kinda dry. Hash browns and eggs were good. Greasy but good. Came with two biscuits which had a strange texture. Side of Sausage Gravy - Just your average sausage gravy. Nothing out of the ordinary. Eggs Benedict - Good portion size and eggs were perfectly poached. The hollandaise was slightly sweet but otherwise good. Service was nice and she did a good job despite the rush. This is a good place for breakfast but nothing amazing. If you are craving simple, old fashion American breakfast and brunch than this is your spot.

My wife and I plus our son, daughter-in-law, and 3 granddaughters ate here and were very satisfied. The food we ate was plentiful, tasty, and so good! The service provided was excellent as well! We will definitely come here again on another trip to Corpus Christi in the future!

Take your time and don't be in a hurry to enjoys this place. It's worth the trip. There is something for everyone on the menu. We were seated prominently. Our server brought out our coffee and complimentary muffins and then took our orders. The coffee (Community Coffee) was right on point! They were very busy but like I said the wait was absolutely worth it. The bacon was perfect thick and not greasy. The pancakes were fluffy. The migas delicious. Oh and the tortillas are made in house. Nice thickness and taste. My husband had the western omelet with hashbrowns. Everything was perfect. Do yourselves a favor and treat yourselves to a meal or two here.

The food is always amazing. The guy in charge likes to yell at his staff. The food is great.

Definitely exceeded my expectation. Corned beef hash was really good. Got the hash brown sides and added onion, jalapeño and cheese.

I went in for breakfast, ordered the Andy's Special. The food was great and fulfilling, I enjoyed the hash browns I always tend to eat that first and it was great. The bacon and sausage were delicious. The service was attentive providing the right amount of coffee. The ambiance was great old country style enjoyed the model train overhead.

Great food and service! Delicious biscuits and free muffins as a starter. Go early to avoid a wait. Very popular local place.

Wanted a hearty breakfast to get us going so we tried Andy's. It did not disappoint. Hubby had a western omelet and refried beans. I had a scrambled egg, bacon, hash browns and toast. Of course, we tried the blueberry muffin which was ok. Everything else was good, and I loved the train and walk art. It kept you looking around. It was busy and a little noisy, it's a family restaurant so you have to speak up to be heard but that's understandable. Our server Karen was great. She kept my coffee filled and was very attentive even though they were busy!

Food was delicious, prices are a bit high like $5 for an add on piece of ham. Pretty cool space to eat in and the service was decent.

The food was amazing as was the service! Next time I am in Corpus this will definitely be at the top of the list for a good breakfast!

Great old fashioned diner with a classic comfort food menu. Exceptional service from a well trained and friendly waitstaff. If you're in or near Corpus Christi stop in.

Great breakfast! Good coffee and great service even when there was a waitlist. Loved the starter blueberry muffin and the ultimate omelette had everything but the kitchen sink in it. Looks like a staple for the locals. Will be back!

Best breakfast in Corpus. Been coming here for years. Never disappointed. Great selection. Free muffins

We were sitting at the bar and the guy screamed across the room that he had four people waiting for seats at the bar. He had reserved them. I have never been in a place where the bar is been reserved. The food is fine. The food is great. The waiters and waitresses are great. That was very rude and uncalled for.

It's popular and busy with locals for good reason. Breakfast was excellent. Service was terrific. Restrooms are clean. There are two model train sets running around the room near the ceiling.

First time I've been here. I was on my way to Corpus Christi and this place receive some very high reviews. I didn't take any pictures, but I got the veggie omelette along with hashbrowns with cheese and onions. I arrive there on a Friday around 11 AM. I could tell by the amount of people waiting outside that this place must be good. The place was packed ! Definitely a must try ! Five stars !!!!!

When I'm traveling, I don't usually go to the same place twice... Andy's was the exception ! Their breakfast was so delicious that I had to go back. First visit I had the Andy special - which is huge. It's enough food for a small family. The next time I went, I had the two egg omelette with sausage and mushrooms. Delish! did I mention that you get fresh hot, homemade muffins when you sit down!

We visit Corpus fairly often and go here almost every trip. Each time the food and service has been very good and with reasonable prices. Depending on when you arrive you may have to wait for a bit but its worth the wait.

Love Andy's Good food, fast and friendly service! The running trains are very entertaining and a little different.

We came here on a Sunday morning and it was very busy, we knew that we weren't just going to get seated anywhere very quickly, so we decided to stay because we have heard some great things about this restaurant. we had to wait for a while, 35 minutes later we moved inside to our table. When we walked in, we immediately felt the cozy ambiance of the restaurant. Everyone was smiling and happy, we knew that we had made the right decision. Our waitress was so cheerful and sweet to us, once we ordered our drinks, she brought them out very quickly, as well as a basket of muffins. Everyone (being very hungry) immediately took a muffin. They were soft and delicious. We ordered soon after our muffins had arrived, our food came out relatively quick. Everyone enjoyed their food so much. I ordered a short stack (two pancakes) and they were very fluffy and delicious. The chicken and waffles was also very light and crispy. Over all great experience!

Very good breakfast. Unique small town feel. Cool train running around restaurant. Food 10/10. Service excellent. I'll be back!

Best Food, Best Service and Best Atmosphere! You won't be disappointed, I promise! Everything is delicious!

Cristina was our server. We had the breakfast quesadilla, and the hash & eggs. Everything was cooked well- quesadilla had smoked sausage which was very good. Long wait to get in, but we opted to sit at the counter there and were seated immediately!

BUSY BUT ORGANIZED CHAOS! Fast service! The food was amazing I had the chorizo tostadas and corn beef hash 10/10 would recommend! Vintage atmosphere too cute wish I had pictures will return!

Great homemade food and attentive service. Recommend highly! Try the biscuits and gravy.

Found this place from many recommendations. Busy, but worth every minute. Extensive menu that hits the spot. Waitstaff is spit on and everything runs like clockwork. Food is great and service is bar none.

The food was and service was excellent. The ambience of the trains was so much fun and I'm not normally a train person, but I took photos for a friend and regret that I can no longer find them.

Terrible. I was excited to go for first time. I heard it was good and the crowd outside waiting verified that. Someone said they served SOS military style. After long wait, we ordered and I got the SOS and corned beef hash. The SOS was NOT SOS. It was cream gravy with sausage. And it was served COLD! my wife's bacon was undercooked, and the corned beef hash was over cooked and burnt! I left so disappointed, and will not be going back.

Went in and waited 20 minutes to be seated. (that's fine) I ordered and waited about 35-40 minutes for food while other tables that were seated after the fact got their food first. Upon receiving the food after 40 minutes everything was cold. You offer breakfast but it is not hot and ready. Waitress checked on us once but was very understanding and apoplectic.

Good solid breakfast. We are visiting Corpus Christi and needed breakfast. Andy's solved the problem. When we pulled into the parking lot, it was full. Worried a bit about getting a table. There were plenty of tables and we were seated almost immediately. I wouldn't count on that as there were many people waiting when we left. Awesome restaurant with great service. The ambiance was small town with trains circling the ceiling.

If your in the mood for a great homemade meal? This is the spot! The service is friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was so cozy. Chicken n waffles, omelettes, and breakfast plates...all recommended! I look forward to visiting again!
