"We stopped in for brunch at the OK Cafe while touring the epic town of Tombstone!
The waitstaff was friendly, and we had no issue getting in and getting fed right away!
The omelettes, scramble, pancakes and French toast that our table shared were delicious!
My only suggestion to put this place over the top would be to add some mimosas! Otherwise, everything was perfect!"

"The name says it all. It’s OK.
Not many options on the menu but that’s par for Tombstone. Not many options for anything. Other than overpaying for mediocre things. Super disappointing city and an average cafe.
Google says “vegan options”. That’s not a lie. Those options are bread and fruit. Unfortunately that’s used all too often for Vegan. My lady had toast due to this. Wheat Sara Lee (at best) with the normal restaurant jelly packs was what she got. She also asked for avocado to make avocado toast. I think it was avocado but it was the consistency of mayonnaise. No need to use a blender for avocado chef. ;)
I got a Denver omelette. Well, ordered one. I essentially got an egg crepe with half cooked onions, tomatoes and some lunch meat folded into it. The potatoes were amazing so that was nice.
The table wasn’t cleaned before we were seated but it was pretty busy. Much like Tombstone overall. Unless it’s noon to 4pm you don’t really have options. Most places in the town don’t have to care as they are there just to overcharge tourists. Either such limited options they really don’t have to care much. Lost people won’t be back and they know you get what you get in this town.
It’s a small room so you’ll have to accept children whose parents don’t know how to care about other people or raise a respect child. You also have to deal with grandmas that bathe in perfume so
You can taste their Avon smell water.
The best part of the entire place and time there was the waitress. I didn’t get her name but remember her for being a young rocker chick. I loved her Death Metal tshirt (really as that’s my genre) and her service. She checked on us often and showed that personally she cared about us. She was quick and did a great job. Speaking of death medal, don’t sit in the back by the bathrooms. The kitchen team loves their music loud and doesn’t care if the diners have to talk over it. It is a great spot to sit and watch the locals come in and out of the bathroom and realize that washing their hands is not something taught in Tombstone. Makes sense for a town stuck in the 1800s. Want a side of disease with that?
Sorry Tombstone. Overall you’re disappointing and not worth the effort.
All that considered, the OK cafe provides food and since you have no other options really it will give you the ability to get further down the road without starving. Thank you waitresses (whom ever you are) for allowing me to give 3 stars."

"I am a huge B & G fan so I made sure we ate here our first morning. They don't skimp on the serving size, the photo I have posted is with "1" scrambled egg on top. I mentioned to our server it was a very generous helping. Don't miss out on this place!"

Flippin’ delicious pancakes as light as a tumbleweed and omelets fluffier than a saloon girl’s petticoat, we swear. Open for breakfast and lunch, but breakfast here is THE event. It’s the best darn breakfast in Tombstone (word to the wise: try the doc holiday burrito – you can thank us later.)
What to Do With a Day in Tombstone (Once Is Enough!)
O.K. Cafe: This cafe is a good lunch alternative if the saloon looks too busy. Expect a variety of chili-based options and themed burgers that play up the Wild West connection. If you’re in Tombstone early, this is a good breakfast spot, too.
