Farm-to-table diner with all-day breakfast, biscuits & gravy
"While it may not have the same tightly packed intimacy of the (now closed) original location, Counter Cafe's campus-area outpost serves up the same great menu of classic diner fare, in a bigger, more modern dining room. It's only open for breakfast and lunch, so plan to start your morning here with a plate of crab cake benedict or an order of hot cakes bigger than your face. There’s also a patio out front where you can grab a seat on one of the pickle-green picnic tables when the weather is nice." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
"Biscuits are all over the breakfast specialist’s menu at its two diner locations — this one in West Campus and the other on East Sixth. There are meals with gravy, poached eggs, pork chops, fried chicken, and more. Takeout orders can be placed online; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury
"A diner is nothing without breakfast, and the West Campus restaurant daytime-only menu does it justice, with eggs every-which-way, hotcakes, porridge, and more. While the original location on North Lamar is permanently closed, there’s still this location and the other on East Sixth. Takeout orders can be placed online; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury
"For daytime solo dining, seek out either location of the Austin diner (the other down on East Sixth) for American breakfasts and lunches through 3 p.m. There are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Enjoy an all-day breakfast and lunch menu with all sorts of eggs, sandwiches, and more from the daytime cafe’s North Campus location. Takeout orders can be placed online; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Darcie Duttweiler
