The food was great and the portions are quite generous for the price. My girlfriend and I got the chicken bacon avocado wrap and BBQ pulled pork cheeseburger. They were delicious and i highly recommend them.

Husband and I stopped in today. One of best hamburgers we've had. Thick burger but done all the way through and with fresh fixings. They make their own chips, which are great. All this with a bonus cookie. Also, make a great chicken salad sandwich. Fast, friendly service. Variety of items for breakfast or lunch. Hours are 7-3 weekdays. Stop in you won't be disappointed!

Kid named Joey suggested this place to me. We were arguing about how there was no decent food in town. He pointed out Papa D’s Tailgating Cafe and told me to come back and talk to him once I tried it. So I went here with low expectations, excited to prove him wrong. But boy, did that blow up in my face. I took a look at the menu and found myself going back over it again and again, as it was extremely difficult to decide what to eat. It all sounded insanely good. But I hadn’t had a burger in a minute, so I went ahead and ordered the BBQ pulled pork cheeseburger. Folks Darren and Dala were super kind and happy to serve me. I could tell they were proud of the food they delivered. I went and sat down and at first glance, I couldn’t believe at what I was looking at. Definitely unlike anything I had seen before throughout my time here in Tulsa. It was like something out of a Michelin star restaurant. And just then was I eager to sink my teeth in. When I did just that, I couldn’t even begin to comprehend the explosion of flavor that hit my tastebuds. Every single bite was so savory. Super tender. Again, unlike anything I’ve experienced in Tulsa thus far. The homemade chips were their own thing too. I wish they made party bag sizes of them. Overall, by far the best food experience I’ve had yet. I will be stopping by again. Thanks, Papa D’s. Now I gotta go tell that kid how right he was.

Great variety of food and daily specials! Just down the road from Chandler Park and the industrial park so would be a good place to grab a lunch!
