What a delightful find! Walking up to Liberty Bar's hard-to-miss pink building, I was awestruck by…read moreits late-1800s architecture. A little internet surfing revealed its fun history of being a bohemian gathering place, a home for nuns, and now a local culinary staple. The tall, narrow building and compartmentalized floor plan made it feel like an eclectic old home repurposed. The restaurant is on the second floor, accessible by a charming staircase or a little elevator. Before going upstairs, I noticed there is a bar and what looks like an art studio on the first floor. It gave cute, vintage bohemian/old world European vibes. We were seated quickly at arguably the best table in the house, right by a window overlooking the street and cacti. Our server was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable--so, I trustingly took his recommendations. We started with the bread and butter; there were four slices of toasted sourdough and a pad of rosemary infused butter. As thin as the slices were, I thought it was going to be more like a crostini than a bread but, much to my surprise, it still had a delightful chew. The butter was spreadable, salted perfectly, and the rosemary aroma was just right. My friend ordered the salmon and I ordered the lamb burger and both were different experiences. The lamb was juicy and well seasoned, while the fries were crispy, herby, and not greasy at all. As a slow eater, I was particularly impressed that the bottom bun maintained its structural integrity--no soggy buns here! The highlight was the chili morita aioli. Whichever chef created that pairing knew exactly what they were doing (bravo!). My friend's assessment of his salmon entree--was that it was very well cooked and the salmon was tender and moist, however, it did lack some flavor. The saving grace for him were the cocktails. He ordered the Gigi and the Beargrass and both received his stamp of approval for presentation and taste. Between the food, service, atmosphere, and fascinating history, Liberty Bar made quite the impression on me. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu and the building's story!

I wanted to love Liberty Bar because the atmosphere is incredible. The building itself is…read morebeautiful, unique, and easily the highlight of the experience. If you're looking for ambiance, this place is a 10/10. Unfortunately, the service didn't match the setting. The staff seemed completely disengaged. The bartender spent much of my visit sitting at the end of the bar sketching while service moved at a very slow pace. At one point, two people who appeared to be managers or senior staff came to the bar, spoke quietly with the bartender while repeatedly looking in my direction, and it made for an uncomfortable experience while I was filming a quick TikTok. I ordered the chilaquiles and found them surprisingly bland. I had to ask for hot sauce, and the only options were Tabasco or Cholula. In a city with such incredible Mexican food, I was hoping for something with a little more flavor or a house-made salsa. On the positive side, the Bloody Mary was very good--I'd happily order it again. Overall: * Ambiance: 10/10 * Bloody Mary: 8/10 * Food: 5/10 * Service: 2/10 I don't regret stopping in because the building is gorgeous, but I left wishing the hospitality and food lived up to the setting.

I had the flapjacks with blueberry compote and they were freaking wonderful, light fluffy, compote not too sweet the blueberry whipped butter was fantastic. I also did a side of over medium eggs and milk bread toast! One note and they were sooo good about it, I'm allergic to white potato and I had asked about potato starch in the bread which luckily there is none but apparently there is in their scrambled eggs, I would have never know to ask but she let me know! The service was fabulous, she was so attentive even with such a busy packed house. We also had the glazed, churro and crème brûlée donuts. That crème brûlée donut is seriously one of the best donuts I have ever had, I'll be having dreams about it for a while. My hubby got the chicken sandwich, spicy one and he loved it! The place is super cute inside but it is a tad loud when it's full.

We happened upon this tucked away neighborhood cafe . The food ranges from breakfast , brunch and…read morelunch and closes at 2pm . We were greeted by the manager with open arms who could not have been more welcoming . ( I felt as if my departed mom was pulling us in to her kitchen to sit and eat her food with every visit). We felt the appreciation of you choosing to dine there. The smell of cleanliness when you walk in made it all the more comfortable being there . We were there at about 11:00am and couldn't decide on lunch or brunch . Brunch looked too good to pass up , so we placed our order( you order at the register before sitting down) . I opted for the avocado toast on wheat with an over medium egg . They seasoned it with a seasoning which included Parmesan cheese . I might add it was paired together perfectly. My husband ordered the French toast which did not disappoint in flavor ( of course I had to try his) . It was so good . It almost tasted as if it had an all spice flavor to it . It was so good and reminded me of fall season which was nice to think of considering this July heat and humidity we've been getting. My 8 year old settled for the buttermilk pancakes which were also nice and filling for him . I had reservations as I recently made him buttermilk pancakes which he didn't like.So the fact that he cleaned his plate of buttermilk pancakes at Labor Cafe speaks volumes lol. I did notice when we were ordering, some sub sandwiches and other delightful food in the glass case for you to pick from . I noticed quite a few to go orders being picked up during our visit, also speaks volumes for this tiny cafe . The coffee is self serve , as an avid coffee drinker this cafe had me at hello when I saw that . So on a scale of 0-10 chefs kisses , I give it a solid x10 ! Compliments to the chef and staff for being so kind and serving up what I call delicious food in this dining establishment.

My wife and I were in San Antonio overnight and stopped here for breakfast in the morning. We both ordered the Tejas Scramble, a wonderful combination of freshly scrambled eggs, cheese, onion, avocado, tomatoes, etc., with an excellent salsa rojo to top it off. Crispy hashbrowns and a half a biscuit rounded it all out nicely. The coffee is solid and so is the service--counter service to order, but your food is brought to your table. It all tasted fresh and freshly made. This honestly one of those places that makes me mad my doctor told me to cut down on carbs because the pancakes looked straight up terrific. But I wasn't at all disappointed with what I got, and the folks who run the Labor Street Cafe are nice as can be. It's also in a cool little part of San Antonio, so there's plenty reason to visit.
