Barnaby's Cafe

* * * * Doin' the Potty Dance

The original Barnaby's Cafe is located on Fairview and their breakfast cafe called Baby Barnaby's is located right next door.  I absolutely LOOOOVE Barnaby's food.  When I ate meat I would get the Lebanese Chicken Fattoush salad or one of their delicious burgers.  Now I'm all about their Spinach and Cheese lasagna!!!  They've got the most amazing fries and desserts and many vegetarian options which includes 4 different burgers like the falafel burger and the black bean burger.  And you just can't beat the god damn Juevos Rancheros at Baby Barnaby's!  I'll tell you what though, you better call that shit in and get it to go!  The original location and the baby barnaby's have such a bad BS (bathroom situation) that I can't even go back to give it a full review.  From what I remember the bathrooms are down these tiny little halls and the bathrooms themselves aren't much bigger than the hall.  The floors are slanted and you feel like you're a kid in a fun house trying to balance yourself as you take a shit.  There's just one women's and one men's room and the place is always packed. And this is an establishment that sells beans and diuretics!  Remember what I think about that, so yeah, that's not gonna work for me.  Good thing Barnaby's has opened several other locations with much better BSs!

This review is for the Barnaby's Cafe on West Gray.  The BS was easy to find, on your left as soon as you walk in, just past a few booths.  It had 2 stalls, one handicapped.  It was super spacious and they even had a booth bench for those of you who NEED to sit down while you wait.  You know, if you got that turtle head or prairie dog action going on and you need a little extra help holding it in.  The BS was very clean and they had some loud music playing!  YEA, you can poop to the beat!   The walls to the stalls went all the way down to the floor for that extra privacy and the toilet paper was well stocked, I think the dispenser held like 8 rolls or something ridiculous like that.  I was super impressed with Barnaby's BS!  I can't give it a five star rating however because Buc-ee's is a five star BS and this doesn't even compare to Buc-ee's.  Plus, there wasn't a changing table and the extra space in the bathroom was used for storage.  Buc-ee's would NEVER do that.  But this Barnaby's Cafe is such an improvement from the original Barnaby's BS.  They've come a long way and for that I want to congratulate them!  






What's up with this BS?!


A friend snapped this shot of the men's room at Fitzgeralds.  He could barely get the toilet AND the toilet paper dispenser in the same picture.  I hope this is a joke!  



I snapped this one morning walking into Officer Donut in Humble.  Uuuum, I don't think so.



And this was taken at Jiffy Lube in Kingwood.  I don't feel comfortable with this situation, can I have my car back?
