Small quaint old town diner and Cafe for breakfast and lunch. Was craving a breakfast burrito. 1836 hit the spot. Owner is a pleasure! Food was delicious to say the least. Fresh, homemade and well put together! Happy to have found this little gem of a spot. Will surely make the 20 minute drive to have this food in my belly more often. You can tell they do well by the continuous flow of curbside to go orders being picked up! Alot of homemade treats also! Will have to give them a try. In my opinion, a MUST TRY BREAKFAST/ LUNCH establishment!

All the food is awesome. You will have to come back several times to try everything. We love the burgers, bennies(Country and Chicken), breakfast sausage at its best.

What a little hidden Gem in 🔔 Bells....so glad for an outing to Bonham then to Bells. If you're in the area of Hwy 56 & N. Pecan, it's a must stop for breakfast or brunch, lunch. They have these outrageous looking cinnamon rolls & they make the best jalapeno biscuits, which are so yummy, and if you like crunchy bacon, it's the best. I'll be going back soon to try their lunch. I will be updating my review of some additional pictures. I did purchase one of their really cool coffee mugs! They even put identifying 1836 stickers on your to-go boxes and bags.

I've driven by a few times and decided to stop by for breakfast today. I ordered the Country Bennie and swapped the regular biscuit for their jalapeno biscuit. My son got the waffles. We also got a pecan roll to go. Everything was delicious. We will be back for sure!

Cool little diner with great food and service. Seating area indoors is small but there isn’t much of a wait ever, picnic tables on the patio for outdoor seating. They have breakfast and lunch selections, the chicken fried steak is amazing and the homemade biscuits and gravy is oh so satisfying! Homemade cinnamon rolls and pies are a bonus.
