The Midnight Shift Restaurant & Bar

We just finished a two night stay at Cotton Court and were so excited to try the restaurant. The first night we had cheese curds, scallops, elk chops, and the steak and Brie melt. The appetizers were good. The entrees were lacking. The elk chops were so salty we weren’t able to eat them. However, our servers were so great and the atmosphere was fun so we decided to try again the second night. We tried different apps and entrees this time and it was a similar experience. We got the charcuterie, peach wings, the steak and the quail. The peach wings were excellent. The charcuterie was disappointing. The quail was good. The grains were served with whole peppercorn mixed in and those bites were unpleasant. The steak was again so salty that we couldn’t eat it. My husband tried the blueberry pie and enjoyed it. The menu was extremely hit or miss. Overall, the service is the only thing that would keep us coming back. James, Trent, Carolina, and Sydney were all so accommodating, kind, and fun. Five stars for service. Two stars for food.

Excellence on every level! The food is homemade with love. Drinks are made and infused with quality ingredients. Best hashbrown I’ve ever had, chopped chives and seasonings took it to another level. Thank you for such dedication to superb dining. Live bands also with a heated pool a few steps away.

This was a great place for a delicious lunch in Lubbock! This beet 🫜 salad broke my brain— I don’t like beets and I LOVED this creation!! 😋 The presentation of everyone’s food was 10/10. All of the staff were sweet and very helpful.

Our 1st time there and we were confused on where the entrance was. The doors off Broadway are the BACK DOORS. When you enter, go to the opposite side of the building to be seated. Menu is small and pricey. We had an order of Korean BBQ wings that were so GOOD. Then we had 2 burgers but they were salty. Our waitress was Awesome, it had a nice atmosphere, but it's not a kids place to eat.

An absolute must! The atmosphere, staff, drinks and food are really what makes the experience so amazing. Huge shoutout to Bekah and the rest of the staff! They're not just great at what they do, they're genuinely amazing people who make you feel right at home. Our go to before a show at Buddy Holly Hall or any kind of event downtown!

Great place for tasty grub. The decor is barndominium style and the service is top notch 👌

Food seems fresh and mostly tasty, somewhat limited menu but prob appropriate for a hotel restaurant. They do have live music on occasion and great tables / seats to enjoy and listen. Drinks are alright, we thought they could use some better presentation & fresher flavor options. If they would make their marg mix fresh and offer a refreshing margarita or drinks with fruits & large solid ice cubes, huge lift! Overall seemed a bit pricey for the taste but great atmosphere. Good place to sit and talk or meet friends.

Stopped in at Midnight Shift in Lubbock and it did not disappoint. The crusted pecan chicken was outstanding. One of those meals you think about later and wish you had in front of you again. The service was exceptional from start to finish, attentive without being overbearing. Came in on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn’t packed, which made the experience even more relaxed. Definitely worth the time to visit if you’re in town.
