Murrell's Cafe

I went here first and foremost for the historical value and secondly for the food. So, my expectations were tempered in that order. Staff is light but I think they may get busy on the weekend for brunch, because they have a huge main seating area and a cozy sized secondary are too. I tried a little of everything the day I came. The fried chicken is good along with the fried fish (whiting). I tried mashed potatoes & gravy (delicious gravy), mac n' cheese were cheesy, collard greens had a very nice taste and were seasoned well, yams (were cooked perfectly), rice was hard (either undercooked or dried out from heat lamp), the pork backbones are divine (even before hot sauce was added)

What a pleasure it was to stumble across this hidden gem. Yolanda made this a great experience. Southern Hospitality at its finest. I ordered a waffle and omelette before seeing the cooked food. The baked chicken was juicy and well seasoned. Collard greens that I once hated were awesome! The candied yams were point blank delicious. ..... There is more to offer, so visit for yourself! Oh! btw the set up inside will completely shock you.

Sunday Southern hospitality!!! As the outside breeze blows thru the campus diner window, enjoy the aroma of home fried chicKEN!!! Have it YOUR way: chicKEN and Waffle or soul food w/ chicKEN!!! Staff eagerly waiting to serve!!! And the ambience is being in the rich history of HBCU!!!! Dont forget the shrimp and grits folk 😋 and the ICE TEA 😋

It was a wonderful and great experience for my first time to attend the national Pan Hellenic Counsel meeting at Murrell cafe. The food as always and forever will be outstanding. The fellowship, scholarship, and uplifting amongst the divine 9 was great. I have learned a lot. Great location and good food will go a long way. A shout out to my Frat brother and the Murrell family. RQQ🐶🐶🐶🐶🐕....Jaysen Berkley 5 -16 KAA
