There is plenty of seating to sit and enjoy a good breakfast meal with a beverage of your choice. Their service is customer friendly and fast. The food servings they provide I felt are fortunes right so you are not wasting food. My buddy and I decided come here after we finished qualifying at the gun range outside of Lockhart. The rated reviews are legit. I highly recommend giving this place a try in you're in town visiting this area.

We tried the chicken fried chicken and you could tell it was a frozen patty. We were really hoping for a homemade meal.

This coffee lounge has a really laid back atmosphere with plenty of places to sit. I took some photos and thought it was weird that there weren't any customers. A few minutes after entering we were greeted by a man working there. He was friendly and told us that they were closed and had just shut down at 3:00 pm. My husband then asked about their coffee beans. He told us that if that was all we wanted then he'd sell some to us. My husband looked at the choices, picked the blend that he wanted, we paid and then left. This is a nice coffee lounge with a laid back atmosphere and friendly service. My husband and I would both return to try their coffee in the future and are thankful that they allowed us to purchase some coffee beans to use at home.

Our visit to Kerbey Lane in San Marcos was absolutely outstanding!…read more My daughter ordered the chicken and cinnamon pancakes with a side of mac and cheese, and honestly, the mac and cheese completely stole the show. It was creamy, rich, flavorful, and so delicious it made us want to lick the bowl clean. You can absolutely tell it is made from scratch. The breakfast platter was equally impressive. The sausage was clearly hand formed and freshly made, which made such a difference in flavor and quality. The cinnamon and chocolate chip pancakes were fluffy, perfectly cooked, and not overly sweet. A huge shoutout to McKenzie, our server, who was attentive, kind, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire meal. She made excellent recommendations and even helped us prepare a travel-ready to-go order for our three-hour trip home. That level of care and service truly stood out. Fantastic food, warm hospitality watching the river flow by, and homemade quality you can taste in every bite. We will absolutely be back!

The glazed carrots had a light maple taste that paired really well with the dish. The temperature in the restaurant was perfect, which made the whole experience even more comfortable. Service was spot on too--Anna took great care of us and was incredibly patient as we shared stories and even offered a few decor suggestions. She was attentive without being overbearing. The music was great and set at just the right volume, which made it easy to relax, enjoy the meal and hear the conversation. That said, the decor could use a bit of improvement. No offense to the artist, but the prints felt a little odd and too small for the wall space. The overall layout of the restaurant could also be better--it didn't feel as cohesive as the food and service deserved. Also, the hardwood seats could use some padding for both the back and bottom to make longer visits more comfortable. All in all, definitely worth checking out for the food and atmosphere, with just a few areas that could be elevated.

Mochas & Javas has been a part of the San Marcos coffee infrastructure for a long time. My…read moresorority used to meet on the Texas State University campus and this coffee shop was one of our "go to" places. Ironically, we were on the campus of Texas State university today for another reason and the car stopped at Mochas & Javas. It is definitely a "go to" spot for students, locals, and visitors. The back story...Kevin Carswell founded Mochas & Javas 2003 and the very first two San Marcos locations were opened together with his brother, Kirby Carswell, and both of their wives...therefore, truly a family-owned business. The restaurant is large with an open atmosphere created by the tall ceilings and windows. This location can easily be a study location, friend meet up, or where good food and great conversation are needed. Without a doubt the coffee is the highlight at Mochas & Javas. The menu offerings include an assortment of espresso drinks, brewed coffee, cold brew, teas, and seasonal specials. Our personal favorites include the salted caramel mocha and pecan pie latte. Mochas & Javas also have complementary food to accompany the javas. The good news is that breakfast is served all day including pancakes, egg plates, breakfast sandwiches, paninis, salads, and baked goods. The Classic breakfast sandwich, our selection, was quite tasty. The servers are friendly and welcoming...super fast. Great "go to" shop...
