Roosters Café — A True Brooksville Treasure Roosters Café is one of those rare local gems that gets everything right. Family-owned, warm-hearted, and packed with regulars who know quality when they see it — this place serves up comfort food with a side of genuine care. The owners and staff treat everyone like family, and their hard work shows in every dish and every interaction. The food? Phenomenal. From stacked breakfasts to Southern dinner plates, it’s hearty, homemade, and incredibly affordable. You’d be shocked what you can get here for under 10. The menu’s massive, and the place is always bustling — because it’s just that good. Now, let’s address the elephant in the customer review room. I was there recently when a customer left a one-star review after flipping out over a 1 charge for a to-go cup. That person spit on the owner. It was disgusting, embarrassing, and totally uncalled for. The staff handled it with grace — far more than I would’ve. That review says a lot more about the reviewer than the restaurant. Roosters continues to do everything right — good food, fair prices, and kind people. If you’re local, support them. If you’re passing through, make the stop. And if you’re mad about a dollar cup charge? Maybe bring your own — and some manners.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Roosters, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with tasteful decor that made us feel right at home. The staff were incredibly attentive, offering friendly service without being intrusive. The menu was diverse, with something for every palate, and the dishes we tried were absolutely delicious. The Meatloaf and Chicken Fried Steak were standouts, bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. The portion sizes were generous, and every bite left us wanting more! All in all, Roosters exceeded our expectations in every way, and we will definitely be returning. If you're looking for a fantastic dining experience, I highly recommend this gem!

First time here and everything was amazing! Service is exceptional all around! Love that they don't cover everything with seasonings then I can season as needed! Very friendly and welcoming! Love the array of " roosters!" Although I am a lover of flamingos! Very clean as well! Will def be back!
