The food is perfect and the service is amazing. They make a pablano soup that is so good. House salad is big then you go up stairs to the Rose room you walk into yet another restaurant that is amazing steaks that are cooked to your preference. read more

We had lunch here on our drive home. We did have to order at the bar. They do have waiter service at certain times. For the starter, we shared the fried green tomatoes and loaded fries. The loaded fries was a huge portion and could definitely be a meal. The fried green tomatoes were ok. Not something I would order again. I had the salmon sandy with fries for my main meal. The salmon portion was big. The sauce was tasty. The fries were fresh. The bartender was very nice. The food came out quickly. There was plenty of seating. Parking is street parking read more

Maybe it's just me, but the drinks were not strong enough. The spinach quesadilla was burnt, but the staff tried their best to make it a comfortable experience. The maraschino cherries were the highlight of my evening read more

Wow! What a nice find! Upon walking in I was pleasantly greeted by the bartender and a gentleman (handsome at that) who I presume is the manager. I love the atmosphere and can see why it has a high rating and a local favorite. I ordered the cheesecake the chicken pot pie soup. That burger was so good, I had ate half of it before I realized I didn't put any condiments on it lol. The pot pie was velvety smooth and had just the right seasoning. If you're in the area, I highly recommend this place. They also serve breakfast starting at 8AM. read more

got the pulled pork sliders with onion rings and it was so good! it does get crowded and a lil loud and hot i went on a weekday. their was only one waitress to attend everybody she was attentive as much as she could! read more

Burger has real and great char, fully melted cheese, grilled bun and perfectly prepped fix-ins. What could be better! Well the hot O rings kept their crisp, and after slightly cooled, cut completely for perfect dipping before that crunch-a-munch!!! I also like that the Rose room would be great for private gatherings. The history of the place exudes from every inch. read more

Excellent food and service, one of my favorite dining spots in Seguin. I enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and vintage decor.

Food was pretty good. Ordered through a delivery co. So can't say about the service or the place in general.

The hubs and I decided to try Aumonts for lunch. He got a bbq bacon cheeseburger and I got a 1916 burger. Both were very good, juicy and tasty. The owner and employees are friendly and the ambiance was fun. I'm thinking we'll be back! read more

1916 Bar and Bistro - The top photo is a bbq bacon cheeseburger. The bottom pic the 1916 burger. Good eats! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Seguin, Texas

I have passed by this establishment various times, but today I decided to check it out. The exterior is a grand old building, but with a good charm to it. You walk in and that unique charm flows on the inside, plenty of seats at the bar area and even more in the restaurant area. As you enter I was warmly welcomed by the young lady at the bar, she mentioned that the orders were being taken at the bar. She was very nice and helpful in choosing the best option for lunch. So as far as the food, I ordered the bacon barbecue hamburger with fries. The burger was delicious the bacon cooked to perfection just the right amount of crunchiness and the fries, I'm not sure what seasoning they used but they were very delectable and crunchy too. Overall the: "1916" is a good addition if you want to hangout with some friends and catch the game while enjoying a good beverage or sit on the other side and enjoy a great meal with family and friends, either way you'll enjoy this place. read more

Well another hill country adventure with a delicious end to the day. We ended up in Seguin and found another delicious place to eat. If you are in the mood for a dynamite burger just belly up to the bar. My blue burger was the best burger I have had in a long time! It was so well seasoned and everything was so fresh. And my GF burger was great. From the bun to the mushrooms, bacon, Pattie, blue cheese and veggies I was in heaven. And to top it off with some great tots and a yummy mule, what more can a girl ask for? The kids gave 2 thumbs up for their sliders and fries. The hubs was awfully quiet while eating his cheeseburger... that is a good sign. Such a cool vibe inside and the staff and locals were not nice. I took their advice and walked around to look at the Rose dining room. Such a cool spot, we will be back for sure. I want to come back and try some of the other sandwiches. read more

Good afternoon, My wife and I have lived in Seguin for a little over a year now. We definitely love the small town vibe and everyone we've met has had nothing but positive feedback about our city. Unfortunately this Mother's Day took a turn for the worst right after church. My wife and I decided to stop by after church for breakfast not realizing a reservation may have been required.   Vanessa was able to accommodate us with a table and was quick serving us our coffee. Upon asking questions about the menu, her answers were condescending and short.  Throughout our visit, we watched her help other customers and noticed her bad attitude worsening.  A short time later, a family walked in without a reservation and when asked how many in his party, Vanessa became upset. Soon after, she placed her hand in the customer's face and told them they couldn't be served. No apology was given nor empathy. This is definitely not the way to promote or support downtown businesses. The family had no choice but to leave despite saying they come every weekend. After 3 cups of coffee she reassured us our order was coming out soon so we waited. We noticed other customers arriving after us were getting their orders served and we had nothing after waiting an hour we realized something was wrong. We decided to let Vanessa know we were leaving and would only be paying for the coffee and that's when she asked us who took our order. Pretending not to know we told her she did. She decided to walk away and returned a few minutes later just to let us know she never turned in our order and that was totally unacceptable. We decided not give her any pushback being that we had just attended church. We completely understand that some jobs do require you to work holidays and people should come to terms with that in order to make money but do not take it out on the paying  customers. I hope this email will provide some additional insight on treating your customers just like you would like to be treated while visiting a place of business. read more

Food? amazing! Service? Amazing! Ambiance exactly what you want in a bar named 1916. The staff were great to talk about the different beers and foods they have. We stayed probably an hour and a half just enjoying the people. read more

The waitress and bartender welcomed us as we walked in. There areTVs playing sports and tables filled with friends sharing stories. I had the burger with onion rings and we shared the spinach dip both were fantastic. My husband chose the burrito bowl with steak and was not disappointed. Everyone was friendly and we will definitely be back. read more

The staff is super nice! The food is okay, the burger tastes like the patty was frozen but it was alright. I may come back and try something else when I'm in town again. read more

1916 Bar and Bistro - Cheese burger and tots - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Seguin, Texas

We ate there twice before the second opening. This time it was a big improvement! I've always loved the ambience here. It reminds me of the 1920 places my Grandparents took me to. The lunch crowd has to order food from the bar (noisy) and you can eat in the bar or go into an adjacent old hotel lobby area for seating. There as an available formal area for later dining. The food has definitely improved since we were last here. It wouldn't take much to spruce up the place. With a little effort it wouldn't be difficult to imagine Al Capone and his entourage barging through the hotel lobby of this century old hotel. Enjoy, my friends! read more

Our new go to! Absolutely loved the food. A great menu/ something for everyone choice. Ambiance in barroom was football !!! Lots of people having a great time. We sat in the side area. Perfect for anytime of the day. Very relaxed area. I could see a wedding or party uding that area and upstairs room. Differently a hidden gem in Seguin. Only thing and restaurant could not really help it was the children running around upstairs/ making lots of noise. read more

Best bloody marry in town hands down. Sandwiches are fresh and filling. If you have not been by you are missing out. Can't wait to go back. read more

Wow what a hidden gem. A smaller bar space with sports TVs but dang, the bistro part has fantastic food! Super friendly staff. The Moscow mule was great. Good craft beer selections. The Bleu burger was one of the best ever. The 1916 burger is just freaking wow! For an appetizer the pulled pork nachos are excellent with generous portions - definitely shareable - with just enough of a spice hint to be interesting. It's a must stop kind of place. Please patronize these local gems so they continue to be here for us. read more

The service was ok for coming in after the lunch rush. The food was good but nothing over impressive. I had bacon cheeseburger with tots. Had to ask for napkins and condiments. Most places would have brought them to you without having to ask. Other than the following it was just ok. read more

Understaffed and poor service. Ordered and only 1 of our plates came out. Waited an hour to find out the order was never placed. We mentioned what happened and the server automatically got confrontational. This was our second and last time at this place. Good luck to the owners but it shows they have never owned a restaurant. read more

Sloppy Joe's and tater tots. Service was good. The building was very nice and lots of history.

Just had lunch here with the wife and it was delicious! Traditional cheeseburger and the bacon bbq cheddar burger were both wonderful. DO NOT forget to order the onion rings they are awesome! Dakota at the bar took great care of us and we had a very nice lunch! Thanks a for great meal guys! Todd and Sharon from Katy read more

Staff is always so friendly. This is more about the food portions. The food here is always good but I was disappointed on one of their new food offerings. I ordered the burrito bowl ($13.00) not including an up charge for protein. The portion is so small. I was expecting at least some more rice. Don't think I'll order again. read more

Our group tried to go to this place. It was 9:04 pm and this sign says they close at 10pm. When we arrived they told us the kitchen closes at 8:30 pm. I am not sure what the point of saying you close at 10 pm. read more

Just came by on a whim looking to get a beer and food with my wife on a Tuesday night. Beer was cheap so that was good and wings were delicious. Service was a bit slow as it was only one worker serving food and drinks. The place was extremely loud - it must be the acoustics in there because there wasn't that many people. We would go back though. read more

The bartender makes good drinks, properly. We ordered a Bloody Mary and an Old Fashioned. A fellow patron sitting at the bar, "That's a lot of work for a little drink," referring to the Old Fashioned, but worth it. Unfortunately there was a smell of old, used washcloths. So I would suggest they use clean rags to clean their establishment. A lot of potential for this bar & saloon located in a historic building in/near downtown Seguin. read more

Always amazing food. I love everything I've had and been several times. The bar staff is nice too and the place is clean. Best hamburgers in Seguin! This place keeps me fed! read more

Made a trip back to Seguin after a friend introduced me to the area. Food and drinks are well worth the visit. The bar on the roof is pleasant on decent weathered days. If you're in the area, make this one of your stops. read more

Came here on break from Jury Duty. -_- But Greg totally made today not so irritating lol.. great service, cute spot and nice selection of spirits and brews! read more

Regrettably, just left this establishment hungry. Food looked delicious, however we had ordered 40 minutes before and were on a time crunch and couldn't wait any longer. The crew was incredibly gracious, and the drinks were wonderful and well priced. But to wait 40 minutes for 2 burgers is not optimal. Doubtful I will be in Seguin again to give it another chance. read more

We just found this place a couple months ago. I like that they have a decent menu to order from. Food has always been tasty. The service is great. It is a bar so it's loud and can be crowded but it's just a very comfortable atmosphere! read more

OMG. So good. Been here before for the beer and ambiance but tried their burgers this time. OMG. So good! So get this... for starters, the patty was bigger than the bun, which you rarely find. Juicy with super fresh veggies and pretty much as good a burger you can get. In the same class as Five Guys. Fries, superb... but the tots. Oh the tots; more like homemade vs. the fast food frozen ones. And for the finale? Absolute best jalapeno poppers this native Texan has had. Perfect, simply perfect. Yes Virginia, we will be back for the burgers... and of course, the 20 or so beers on tap. read more

The food and atmosphere are great! If the bartender had just a little bit of personality, it would help the place be better! We went on a Wednesday night and it seemed to be hopping!
