Great mom & pop spot for breakfast or lunch. We had the Moo burger w/ bacon, cheese, onion & mayo. Flavor was great & the burger was huge. Affordable prices & great service. Family owned & could feel the love in the food. We'll definitely be back

Out in the country where service is good, people are friendly, and pick-up trucks rule. Always a good experience. My favorite: the chicken salad on whole wheat toast.

A true family restaurant. The owner sits at a table to greet and talk with tables. The daughter, and I think nieces were cooking and waiting tables. While I was talking with the owner ( can’t remember her name) she was telling me her nephew came up for the day to slice some vegetables and meats for her husband because he has been able to the past few weeks. In case you missed that , slice fresh vegetables and meats. Tell me a family restaurant that does that.

Best ma and pa shop I've been to. Coffee is cheap pancakes are huge, eggs cooked just right and the bacon is thick. What more can one ask for? I take my boys here and they are all trying to eat an entire 'elmer' pancake... None have succeeded so far!

Cute atmosphere and large food portions for the price! The Ellery Country Cow is pretty famous for everything being cow themed and the large amounts of cow toys, knick knacks, memorabilia, and other odds and ends makes it rather amusing to look at everything inside when waiting on an order. The food also comes in pretty large proportions, such as Elmer sized pancakes or their giant sized omelettes which are good for the price. The staff that work here are really nice and easy going people and on one occasion I was offered a free meal due to a messed up order. That being said, my only criticism is that the coffee here is consistently pretty weak. It's very cheap coffee (intentionally so), but it is so watered down that it doesn't really wake you up nor do you get to enjoy the flavor of coffee. Ive noticed this on a few separate occasions, and so while Im glad their coffee is very cheap in terms of pricing, I think making it a bit stronger would be a nice improvement. Either way, I definitely recommend this restaurant for breakfast with friends!

Greatest little country restaurant. Fast service. Wonderful staff. Owner is a little crazy with all the foster kids she has had in the last 20 years and still manages to find time to keep the cow running smooth. Please don't take my word for it. Stop by and ask any one the many regulars. Just be prepared for great conversation and a welcoming environment. You will be treated like a regular and family.

This place is just amazing! Such a home like atmosphere, super polite and accommodating staff, and prices so cheap its a wonder they make any money! You won't go hungry with the portions either. Absolutely love this place and I'm reminded why every time I go.
