My wife heard about Black Walnut Café and wanted to try it out for breakfast one Sunday morning. We have always found that any café that is located at an airport is always a great place to eat and Black Walnut was no exception although a bit different from what we are used to. After waiting in line to get in, we were served cafeteria style and this I was not expecting. It worked and was different. Just not used to this at an airport café. In any case, I tried out the chicken and waffles; a Belgium waffle with some really good chicken tenders to go with my Bloody Mary. My wife went with the ham and cheese omelet with her Bloody Mary. I really enjoyed my chicken and waffles. They chicken was crisp and flavorful and both my wife and I enjoyed our meals and Bloody Maries. Overall, a really good meal served by the window so we could watch the airplanes take off and land. I look forward to returning to the Black Walnut Café.

Amazing view while eating you have the option to eat inside or outside in a 2nd deck patio while watching airplanes take off. Would recommend if you're in the area. Only thing I didn't like is that they took forever with my orange juice and asked about 3 times and had somebody come over asking for proof that I did get an orange juice like why would I lie about that...

We loved checking out the Black Walnut Cafe at the Conroe Airport. It was really cool to see the planes take off on the runway while eating our lunch. We really enjoyed chicken wraps, pork belly blt, & burger. It was a really nice setup to sit inside or outdoors and you order at the counter or at the table. If you order at the counter they give you a tracker and they find you to deliver your food. This was a great experience!

Food and service are always excellent. I ordered the Avacado toast with eggs this morning. Ahmed had the cinnamon roll French toast with eggs. Can't go wrong with that!

First time here as new transplants from California, and we love it! The food was great, chicken and waffles - YUM! The customer service is beyond exceptional. Our server, Abby was gracious and very knowledgeable about the menu choices. The view of the aircrafts landing and taking off was spectacular!!! We will be back for sure!!! Oh, the Bloody Mary was greeaaattttttt!!!!!

Fish tacos

Went for lunch with our office. The food was great and the service was great also. We had Thai lettuce wraps for an appetizer and my entree was the fish tacos. Everything was superb. Would definitely recommend and go back again.

Chocolate Pancakes and the Big Plate
Immanuel S.

Wow! First, I would like to say I was pleasantly surprised. Driving into an airport for breakfast was a bit off putting, once I got to the 3rd floor, wow! The classic Pan Am posters, light music, and distant chattering of voices and plates clinging really made it a great atmosphere! Not to mention the view of the trees and planes flying. The service is great as well, thank you Brianna for tending to me and my date. Everyone had a smile and was happy to help us for our first time. And of course, the food was great. The potatoes were crispy, aromatic and fresh. The chicken sausage was juicy and had a snap. Pancakes were also fluffy and blueberries on top had a fresh snap as well. Finally the eggs were perfect as well. This place definitely deserves a 5 stars. It will be our main Sunday breakfast place from now on!

Right in the midst of Conroe Regional Airport, this is a great place to eat and watch the arrival and departures of local air traffic. There isn't a bad seat in the house, but if you want to be at the window, grab a table when it's open and have someone else place your order in the line. Service is good with the kitchen following up with questions about dietary needs. The food is the same Black Walnut menu we all know and love but for some reason our orders were all over cooked. Likely an anomaly.

"Lobster Benedict"
Eddie S.

It has to be Conroe's most unique hidden gem such a vibey relaxing atmosphere even tho it's at a airport lol. Review time Lobster Benedict: 9.6/10 huge chunks of lobster meat and hollandaise sauce was absolutely spot on even with that they still put some smoked applewood bacon on it.

Second time here and the food was delicious again. I ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich and it was very thin. Very little chicken, more breading than meat. Ambience was nice- place was packed, but as soon as a table left, staff was immediately clearing it for the next customer. Well staffed and keeping up with the rush was nice. Didn't have to wait a long amount of time. Price was a little higher, but inflation has hit us all. Anyways, great experience this time as well.

The bar area
Indira M.

I've only been here once but I enjoyed the food and ambiance. I had the fish plate. It was wonderful. The batter was light and crispy and the cod was cooked to perfection. My friend had the Wednesday special, turkey, avocado, bacon sandwich which I tasted. Now I have to go back just to have it. The portions are generous. You order at the bar/counter and they give you a buzzer but they brought the food to us. It was a little under $20.00 for lunch. I don't know if it's the same menu for dinner. The also serve wine and beer.

I met my friend there at 10:00am. It was very quiet, which I like. The person taking the orders was Lilly. She was so sweet. She told us where she imports different ingredients from and how she uses the highest quality ingredients. She has a very extensive menu of both iced and hot coffees. There were also sandwiches and muffins. She told us that if we wanted something that wasn't on the menu, she would fix it for us. She asked me what flavors I like and what I don't like to help me make the best choice. I went with mocha coffee served hot. My friend got an iced drink called wedding cake. Both drinks were larger than I expected. I think 18 ounces but I may be mistaken. I was going to let mine cool off but she said it wasn't necessary. She was right! I was able to drink it right away. The temperature was perfect. It tasted great! My friend said her drink was awesome. The shop is delightful! There are several couches with coffee tables, some bar height table and stools as well. We sat on the couch and visited there until just after 1:00! A few people came in while we were there but they were all quiet and lept to themselves. There was some music playing but it wasn't loud at all. The setting is so peaceful and serene. The only picture I took was of a green vinyl couch because it reminded me of the one at my husband's frat house at SHSU in the mid 80s. I plan on going back again as soon as possible. I highly recommend Lilly's in Willis!

The espresso is on par with higher end Italian espresso - rich, thick creama and just a hint of smoke. bitter enough that o dropped 2 sugar packets in. i'm not a fan of this style but i respect it and Summer Moon has done a good jon Americanizing it. the American part i didn't like was no ceramic much at all - not even for my expresso, the extra work required by me to explain 'ristretto' and that their Lamarzocco DOES make ristretto shots. Customer service was excellent. If i liked sweet milk, i'd definitely enjoy a Summer Moon espresso in it. I was impressed with SMC as a business and doing an excellent job at actualizing an ideal of coffee they have. However, being from the rich coffee culture of Pittsburgh i've yet to find my people here in Houston where i'm visiting my parent for the holidays. I accidentally got an amazing pour over and espresso from Blue Door. I still haven't found. anyone who know who Lance Hendrick or James Hoffman. is.. still looking.

There are two large dining areas inside and is a table service eatery. I ordered the Honor Burger w/fries for lunch and the MSRP was $16. The waitress told me it was a popular choice and it arrived about 10 minutes later. This burger is a fully dressed version of a 6 oz beef pattie with avocado slices, pepper Jack cheese and caramelized onions with garlic aioli. It was a filling and good tasting burger and the bun held up to the end. The fries are of a curly and thick style that are seasoned and served hot. I liked them as they are unusual in design and tasted good. The table service was very good too. I would repeat this order except next time get the regular $12 burger without the avocado and caramelized onions. My meal with soft drink, tax and tip was $25 which is a little expensive for a burger meal. I'll bet their breakfast meals are good too.
