Stray Dog Cafe

Wonderful food and service. Nice clean environment. The food was well priced. You get a lot for very little.

Only giving a two stars for the home made English muffin which were yummy and for the beyond excellent service, other then that the food was HORRIBLE! Tomatoes were rotten, bacon tasted bad, and everything tasted old and had a abundance of grease all over everything! Will not be back!

My family and I have eaten here twice now. Both times, our food was good, and everyone working there was extremely nice.
That being said, on our first visit it took us 45 minutes to get our food (two burgers and fries), and today it took over an hour. While the place was pretty packed both times, there are only 8 booths and another 8 tables. This place has been open for a while and should know to handle a lunch rush by now. Our waitress kept our drinks topped off while we waited, but I drank six glasses of iced tea (one every ten minutes) until our food arrived.
A friend of mine (who recommended the place) said it’s my fault for going during lunch. I guess if you’re looking for a place to eat lunch that you shouldn’t go to during lunchtime, this is your place. I feel bad saying we won’t be back because the people there were quite nice, but the service is simply too slow for us. Nothing we ate was worth waiting over an hour for.

A perennial favorite in my house. We mostly go for the breakfast. It’s simple, but delicious. I crave their fresh made English muffins. I save it for the end of the meal with a bit of strawberry jam. Yum!
The pancakes are soft, buttery and scrumptious. The sausage is fresh. The oatmeal is great. Really, you can’t go wrong.
On Saturday they can be pretty busy and there might be a wait, but it’s worth it. If they have caramel pecan rolls, grab one.

As soon as you walk in here, it smells like bacon! At least it did this morning! What a great spot! The welcome! The breakfast! The warm atmosphere! Perfect! Today was the day I finally stopped off for breakfast. I had my 2 soft poached eggs and dry toast — might sound boring but… they got it right! The eggs were cooked just right and the toast was dry with butter on the side! I was happy! It’s always a daring choice, my 2 soft poached eggs — it makes or breaks my breakfast!
Did I mention they make real cinnamon rolls? WOW! They are just what you need to get the day going! I got one for the road! I am looking forward to going back!

We were visiting Oklahoma City from our home in Texas. Not knowing anything about the city, I went on Unilocal looking for good reviews on nearby local restaurants. As usual, Unilocal did not disappoint. The Stray Dog was a quaint little diner tucked away in a strip shopping mall. We had the catfish special for lunch & substituted macaroni & cheese for the coldslaw. The fish was delicious — hot & crispy with just the right amount of seasoning in the batter. And the mac & cheese was very creamy & flavorful. The one miss was the doggie bowl appetizer of stale popcorn, which did nothing to add to the cuisine. It was a distraction that was out of place & unnecessary. However, all the employees were very pleasant & helpful, with Grey being our waiter. I would love to come back for breakfast if we’re ever in OK City again.

A gem of a local place… Especially on this side of town! Homemade biscuits and english muffins to name a few items normally delivered via truck. If you want that intimate feel… Try a mid morning trip off the busier rush times and you will just drink in the hospitality. Bring your dog and sit on the patio!
The food is thoughtful… Meaning they care. Harder to find these days.

Excellent place to eat for comfort food. Everything is made fresh and cooked to order. Even the pies, which are very good, are made onsite daily!

Breakfast of champions! French toast is made with this amazing bread and you get three slices. Bacon was thick cut and a little crispy for me but bacon is one of those things that you enjoy what you get and don’t complain. Coffee never ending and hot! Pancake and egg breakfast left her happy and smiling. Note to the one person who had a long wait at lunch. Orders can get lost sometimes so don’t hesitate to ask about your food it it’s a little late they would rather see it solved than you go away unhappy. Enjoy!!!

Amazing! A lot of favor packed into this small diner in downtown Bethany. My Nathan’s Hot Dog was wrapped in BACON! Wowzers! It came on a very yummy out of the ordinary buttery bun. French fries are hand cut and delicious. Pie… Oh MY lets talk about pie… I ordered Choc Pie. My stomach was completely stuffed after my Hot Dog but I couldn’t resist homemade pie. The crust was spot on, the choc pie filling was rich and creamy. Then they top it with whipped cream, mini morsels and powered sugar. My son ordered a burger which was big and tasty. My other son had a club sandwich which was large and full of meat. So in conclusion … You gotta try this place!

This place is excellent for breakfast. I have been maybe 6 or 7 times, all for breakfast. Most everything is homemade and delicious. I have heard their lunch is great as well. Give it a try as you won’t regret it.

I’ve been here four times and every time it’s taken us so long to get our food. The last time I was there it took an HOUR to get a grilled chicken salad?! The manager could tell I was upset but just said «that’s part of the lunch rush.»
Anyways, food is decent but be prepared to wait.

Good, home made. They will let you eat with your dog on the patio. Had a burger and fries, greasy, but good. They served popcorn in adding bowl for an «appetizer». The popcorn was burnt, but lots of character in this little downtown Bethany place.

Hometown love and a great place to eat. There is no better place to eat than small mom and pop establishment. Ask for the Strawberry Pie… OMG!!! :D

Stray dogs café is one cool little diner. I think they are just getting started so they have some pretty strange hours currently. I hope that will change in the future as I would love for it to be open later during the week days.
Hubby & I checked it out «did a fly by» on our way to the airport. It’s a really cute space. It’s an adorable street front café with street front café seating although it was not open due to poor weather when we were there.
There is not much parking in the front, your best bet is to park in the parking lots in the rear & come in thru the back door.
We were told while we were there that they have steak dinners on the weekends & that they make all their own pies & bake all their own breads, except the burger buns, in house. I spotted them taking dinner rolls out the oven & they sure did smell good :)
Hubby ordered a couple of hot dogs & some fries for lunch. The kraut dog came on a toasted piece of bread served in a bowl which was kinda weird even though hubby devoured it. The chili cheese coney came in a little basket with a small portion of tiny natural cut fries. Hubby said everything was excellent & well prepared. He finished it all.
I ordered a Toro burger & chili cheese fries which also came in a little basket. The chili cheese fries were excellent & I loved that they were a tiny portion. However, eating them off a little piece of paper in a plastic basket was extremely difficult.
The burger was a typically thin diner patty beautifully cooked & presented on the plate. It looked as fabulous as it tasted. However it came on a jalapeño bun that I did not care for. I never eat the bun anyway so it wasn’t a big deal. I was told that you can substitute it for a regular bun just FYI. The jalapeño bun was very heavy & dense, even more so than say, a ciabatta roll.
We ordered a small cup of Mac & cheese on the side bc we just wanted to taste it. We both did not care for it as it had pieces of fatty bacon inside & a very strange flavor. Very disappointing.
The coffee was really good & the service even better. Our waitress was very nice & at one time got super busy taking care of several other tables. Another waitress passed by & saw my coffee getting low & without hesitation she came & filled my coffee! WOW!
Hubby & I are looking forward to trying some other things on the menu, stopping by for a steak dinner & we would love to have a chance to sit on that lovely front patio & have breakfast.
Hopefully they can increase their weekday hours & fix a few small things so that I may be able to up my rating in the near future.
The hog dogs, burgers & fries were yummy & the service was top notch.
Will return.

I went here for lunch and had a pretty unique experience. Staff is friendly, very neat and clean inside. They give you a little doggy bowl of popcorn as an appetizer. I had a club sandwich with fries. The club sandwich was well made with quality ingredients and the fries were homemade thin cut fries. I love the thinner fries, home cut fries are typically thicker in my experience. I tried two pies, chocolate chip and coconut, both were wonderful; I would love to come back and try breakfast sometime.

First time here it seemed like a good breakfast spot according to the reviews .
It was a pretty good breakfast had the omelette it wasn’t amazing or anything. I’ll give it 3.5 ish

A cute breakfast/​lunch place. Decided to finally try out this place after hearing about it in the gazette. You get a bowl of popcorn in a dog bowl when you first sit down! Warm and slightly salty. I ordered a normal hamburger and my friend ordered the El Toro burger. I looked around and would say 75% of people had burgers. Not too greasy, seasoned, and just a kick with the El Toro burger. Fries were fried to perfection, not too crispy and not soggy!

Down home, old time breakfast café (they do lunch too). If you want good stick to your ribs breakfast with plenty of options this is your place. Small and quaint but with awesome food. Prices are more than reasonable and service was good as well.

This place was affordable and clean. Friendly staff, but kinda seemed like they were going through the paces. Just kinda every day hum drum. I had the bedlam breakfast with bacon. Hash browns were very good, so was the bacon. The biscuits were a little over done, when I sliced my fork into them they were crunchy and hard to cut through.
It seems they only have one waitress and one gofer (meaning she fills coffee, tends the register, and clears tables). I say this because when we had breakfast, my dad had decaf and I had regular. He had a refill but I wasn’t ready. We did not see her again to refill until we were done and then she came around almost too often then because we were ready to leave.
I will give them another chance because SDC has really good reviews. I just wanted to share my experience to all on Unilocal
