The Eatery Started as a Dream

For many years, Don and I sat on our patio dreaming about what a little restaurant of our own would be like. We talked about all kinds: coffee shops, friend joints, ethnic food places, and a family restaurant. We began a very small business planning and catering custom parties using some of the best recipes we had. The clients kept coming, and the parties got bigger.  Finally, they became so big that we had to rent a commercial kitchen.

We had our eye on a little place on Broadway Street in Haltom City.  To help cover some of our over head, we opened THE EATERY on October 19, 2008 with a full sandwich menu, and one featured hot meal every day.

As the owners and personal chefs of THE EATERY we love cooking food and experimenting with different cooking ideas.

Comfort food Like Momma Used to Make From Scratch

As THE EATERY has grown, so has our food menu. Now we serve a great selection of sandwiches, salads, appetizers, and hot entrees.  We get creative with our special of the day. During the winter, we add great comfort classics like beef stew and Hearty soups, and summertime brings desserts like cold banana pudding and side dishes such as fresh cut tomatoes, cucumbers and onions.

Having outgrown our original location’s five tables, we opened at 3257 N. Beach Street in October, 2010.

THE EATERY combines home cooked classics and “nuevo casual” stylized foods to give you that taste of home, and also surprise and delight you. Don and I strive to create dishes that evoke memories of family favorites as well as deliver unexpected flavor combinations that surprise and delight.

Bring Your Appetite and Your Favorite Beer or Wine

THE EATERY serves lunch and dinner, but has a breakfast item or two on the restaurant menu from time to time. THE EATERY does not have a license to serve alcohol, but you are welcome to bring your favorite wine or other alcoholic beverage when you stop by.

We are a family owned and operated neighborhood restaurant. We make our traditional food from scratch. Come hungry! You’ll leave happy and full.
