    This place is so so so cute in a super cool location. I got a side of biscuits and gravy and bacon and it was so yummy! The bacon was especially good. I also got to try the ham steak and it was spectacular. My whole group was raving about their food. Our server was so nice and brought everything we needed! Highly recommend for breakfast (get here early, it's a popular spot)

    Great diner experience. Lots of cool planes outside. People fly in from all over. Had the club, a chicken salad sandwich and a hamburger. Great fries!

    I absolutely love this quaint diner. As you sit and eat, you can watch the planes come in and take off. The food is good. I will attach photos of the menu, service was super friendly and fast, but being able to sit there and watch outside was amazing. I will definitely be back food. Prices were good and you definitely got good portions.

    We have been to Fredericksburg many times and just discovered this place. We'd been searching for a classic 40s diner such as this for years. We came for breakfast and came back the same day for lunch. Katie was our waitress and she was awesome, and their migas, French toast, Helipad, and onion rings were fantastic! We'll be back, and there are so many things on the menu we want to try!

    This Diner is right next door to the Hangar Hotel and it was so convenient to check out of the hotel and grab some breakfast from the Airport Diner. Right off the bat, the decor is awesome, it had a very vintage feel to it. The service was awesome. We had a great server, she was awesome. The food was good and the coffee was also good. We would return if we stayed at the Hangar Hotel again.

    On one of our trips to Fredericksburg, my wife and I, her brother and sister in law decided to eat a Sunday brunch there. Our first choice, Sunset Grill had people lined out the door and many more waiting to get served. We did not even stop. Our second choice was not much better. It was packed with people waiting outside as well. As we searched for a place to eat, we remembered that the airport had a diner so we went there to see if it was easier than the first 2 places to get breakfast. It had people waiting but the wait was rewarded when we found a table. It was first come, first served. Now, the diner looks over the jetway where the small planes can park and the flyers can walk over to the diner and eat. It's pretty entertaining. You can watch planes take off and land right there while you eat. My brother in law is a licensed pilot and loves to fly and watch airplanes. We've eaten lunch here but not breakfast. It was busy so while the service was not great, it was adequate and those young ladies who work there work fast and furious. They really earn their tip for sure. The food is good - again not great - it is a diner after all. Overall, it was an adequate breakfast. Fredericksburg is a place full of promise if you are inclined to open a breakfast/ brunch restaurant for Sundays. It was amazing to see the amount of people we saw lined up patiently to eat breakfast or brunch. This might be a big opportunity for some enterprising person interested in serving breakfast to hungry people in Fredericksburg, TX!

    Great diner prices and the food came out quick. Also really neat to watch some of the planes fly down or take off. Highly recommend on your trip to Fredericksburg!

    Cute little, very little, diner on the airport. Food wasn't great. I tried the SOS off the breakfast menu. The biscuits were dry, gravy was bland, the eggs over cooked, and the potatoes seemed like they had been sitting under a heat lamp to long. My wife had the sausage and onion sandwich with sweet potato waffle fries. Her was better, but the waffle fries tasted like a fair food. Maybe the oil they use. We can at least check it off the list. On to the next $100 hamburger!

They updated their porch to have more coverage which will be great once summer really hits. Inside is great too. We've sat in all the areas. We went all out for our brunch date (mom & dad time out). Cold brew with vanilla, caramel iced latte... yummmm! We started with zucchini fries and they were hot, crunchy and delicious. I had the brunch burger (it was huge!) with sweet potato fries. I love their sweet potato fries.

I ordered the Eggs Benedict, substituting bacon for ham, with a biscuit and gravy on the side. The Eggs Benedict was good. I loved the unexpected touch of Swiss cheese, which added a nice twist to a classic dish. The hollandaise was a little on the sour side, but the bacon was cooked perfectly. The biscuit and gravy was the real star of my meal, so good that I almost wish I had ordered it as my main! Definitely getting that next time. My husband went for The Big Ass Sandwich and loved it. Fair warning- it lives up to its name. It's big, it's messy, and it's absolutely worth it. He said the same thing I was thinking: we need to come back. We'll definitely be returning on our next trip to Fredericksburg. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great breakfast spot with good food and even better service!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I love the set up of the main dining room. I'm always a fan when you can see the kitchen preparing the dishes from your table. Hill and vine pairs their excellent food with some amazing local wines. We tried the William Chris to pair with the pork chop (which was excellent). We started the meal out with the mahi ceviche. What a flavor bomb! Highly recommend. Service was perfect. Attentive, but not overly so. I always think the price is very fair considering the quality of ingredients and the care put into the dishes. Will be back for sure when in the hill country.

We had Kristen as our server, she was so attentive and sweet. To start we tried the sweet cornbread, lavender mint lemonade, and regular lemonade. The lavender mint lemonade was one of the best drinks I've had in a while. For our meals he had the BLTA with fries and I had the avocado and lime salad with tri tip steak. Absolutely stellar food, quality ingredients and great flavors. We had leftovers for sure, lol, something to eat on the drive back to DFW the next day. For dinner, we sat outside and had Jess as our server. She was also really nice, she had quite a few tables and still managed to give us plenty of attention. We had carnitas nachos and the ground beef soup. The carnitas nachos are... unnecessarily large. lol Luckily the soup bowl was very small so I was able to help the boyfriend with some nachos. But my small effort was not enough and he tapped out of the nachos at the halfway mark. Highly recommend the nachos if you have four friends with you. =D This was a great restaurant with a lovely outdoor space. If we lived in Fredericksburg, I could easily see us making this a monthly hang out on Friday nights. If you have the chance, make sure to get in with Kristen or Jess, you won't be disappointed.

We ordered blue cheese with the wings and got ranch. Our celery was probably previously frozen as we could bend it together and touch each end without it breaking! Told the server about this when we asked for new sauces. He replied, sorry... he took the two unopened sauces and brought two blue cheese out. Not replacing the third. I know it's petty, but I did not realize that my water would come in a bottle, with no ice. I asked for ice he brought it out. I also asked if there was a charge for the bottle of water. He said yes. It would've been nice to know that before I ordered. We were very surprised at the end when we asked him if we could get two checks for our table, he shared with us he couldn't, it had to be on one rather than cause a scene we decided to deal with it. At the end, we ask if we could get a receipt, he shared the best he could do is to let us come up and take a picture of the screen. Little bit disappointed in the entire experience as we are here from the state of Ohio and had hoped for a bit of a different experience. Overall, your outside service area was well done with plenty of room for seating and it was a nice touch having the haters.
