I come here every time I’m in Dublin. It’s a great home cooking “hole-in-a-wall” kind of place. It’s always packed with locals, the food is very tasty and service is friendly. They have value options and specials. Give it a try, I know I’ll be back when I’m close by.

Granny Clark’s in Dublin came highly recommended and was quite busy at lunch, for good reason! The staff were great and there were a lot of regulars. The chicken fried chicken and mashed potatoes were so good!! I’ll be back!

Had a horrible experience on our first trip here. Turned our to be due to us showing up when there was a buffet, and ordering off the menu instead. We came back when there was not a buffet, and things were much better. - burger was really good. - the breakfast taco was full of flavor (too bad the salsa had absolutely zero spice or seasoning g to it, though). My local pet peeve is that restaurants in the area almost never season the food, and especially never make anything spicy. - service was great. We would definitely return... Just not during a buffet.

We love Granny Clark’s! It’s pretty much always busy no matter when we stop or pass by. Customer service is great and it has a nice friendly feeling to it. There is lots of seating. They have a breakfast and lunch buffet depending on the time and day. You can order from the menu or do the buffet. We visited during lunch and got the buffet. The lunch buffet was around 12.99 and soooo worth it. They didn’t have a huge amount of items but what they did have was awesome. They have a salad bar, liver and onions(on special that day), chicken fried steak, meatloaf, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, rolls, and chicken tenders. For dessert they had apple cobbler, bread pudding and cake. I tried a little bit of everything and I’m serious when I say everything was delicious! The Mac and cheese, meatloaf and chicken fried steak were my favorites!

I’ll say Granny Clark’s was appropriately named... ALL of the food I tried on the lunch buffet reminded me of my “Nano”!! I had the •Chicken Fried Steak w/white gravy •Meatloaf •Macaroni and Cheese •Mashed Potatoes w/white gravy •Potato Salad Dessert •Apple Cobbler •Lemon Cake I’m 100% ready for a nap. Thank you to the cooks, waitresses, & the rest of the staff for making this a great experience. We look forward to returning someday.

If you’re looking for a comforting, home-cooked meal that hits all the right notes, Granny Clark’s is the spot to be. I had the pleasure of trying one of their burgers with a side of fries, and it was everything I hoped for—juicy, flavorful, and made with care. The fries were golden and crispy, the perfect companion to the burger. But the real stars of the meal? The desserts. The apple cobbler was out of this world—sweet, spiced just right, and topped with a crumbly, buttery crust that melted in my mouth. And the lemon cake? Moist, rich, and bursting with fresh lemon flavor. Every bite was pure happiness. Granny Clark’s isn’t just food—it’s soul-warming goodness made with love. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!

Amazing place. The fried chicken is incredible. Better than Babe's chicken in DFW. Cherry cobbler was excellent as well. 12.99 for buffet was quite the deal. I definitely recommend stopping by if you are passing thru Dublin.

Absolutely fabulous food! Every single serving is made from scratch and it shows. Just like my Grandmother use to make. Definitely worth the drive. They had a buffet the day we ate there and it looked wonderful, for 14.99. We chose the blue plate special which included 3 sides, roll or cornbread and meat of your choice that was on the buffet. The price was 11.99 and included drink and dessert. We had the chicken fried chicken and hamburger steak with sauteed onions. The apple and peach cobblers were delicious as was the brownies. Granny Clark's has been around for a longtime and I see why! If you are looking for fresh made home-cooked food, this is your place! Ask for Ryan, he's great!
