  So we popped in for Sunday breakfast on our way out of town this morning. Pretty much nothing else is open on Sundays so...
  Husband got a breakfast skillet, it had potatoes, sausage, eggs, jalapeños & other goodness and he ate every last bite it was so good.
  I got the chicken fired steak breakfast. With homestyle potatoes and a couple of eggs over medium.  Skipped the toast.
  Eggs were cooked perfectly, 4oz chicken fried steak was absolutely delicious, and perfectly sized. And those potatoes were the bomb! I usually take a bite or two but these I could stop eating. I couldn't eat everything but I sure tried.
  Don't count this place out on good food because it's not owned by the local celebrity. It can stand on its own and their chicken fried steak is better than Rea's ribeye version. Sorry, but true.
  Coffee was meh.  but who cares with food that good.
  Can't wait to have it again. I don't give 5 stars without warrant.

  Buffalo Joes may have the ambiance of an old Pizza Hut but it doesn't even matter when the food comes out. Perfect fluffy buttermilk pancakes served with soft whipped butter, the kind of pancakes that will make you nostalgic of your grandmother's house for Sunday brunch. Their breakfast burritos are packed to the brim with real scrambled eggs, crisp bacon, ham, shredded hash browns, and lots of gooey delicious cheese.
  
  We enjoyed the small town vibe, where people would come in, see someone they know, and visit at their table for a bit. The service was wonderful too. Our waitress was an adorable teenager who got us everything we needed and made sure to check on us throughout the meal.
  
  This is a great place for breakfast, especially if you want a little home style cooking.

  This place has fabulous breakfast! I had the skillet it was delicious! My husband had the #4 and ate every bite! It was way better than the Mercantile and half the price! I have had friends that ate dinner here and said the chicken fried steak was huge and yummy! Don't miss the chance to eat here when you come to Pawhuska!

  The Pioneer Woman Mercantile and majority of the shops in this town were closed on Sundays...Bah-Humbug!!  I drove over an hour to try the Mercs breakfast!
  
  So thankfully Buffalo Joe's was nearby, and open.  I was already is a glum mood, and as I drove up to Buffalo Joe's...it looked like an uneventful establishment, but I should never judge.
  
  We were told to seat ourselves and immediately my waitress, Marissa, greeted us and poured me a cup of delicious coffee.  I wasn't in the mood for "diner" food, but I needed to feed the depression inside me.  So indeed I ordered, and I was going to make it good!
  
  I ordered the fried mushrooms and loved it!!  Nice and crunchy breading on the outside, and a fresh juicy bite on the inside...The bison burger was delicious, and their French fries were also seasoned well and crispy...My daughter enjoyed her grilled cheese sandwich so we both were satisfied.
  
  There is absolutely nothing special to look at about this place.  My suggestion is that this place come up with a juicy double bacon, or a mile high cheesy, chili type fries, and a badass apple pie with vanilla ice cream...Just something "extra will make this establishment more exciting. We are in the middle of nowhere, and this place I'm sure thrives on locals and passerby's.  I'm grateful Buffalo's has better than average food, Great service, and good coffee!
  
  Smack me for judging.
