I was looking for a place for lunch in Blanco that was open on Mondays because I picked up a friend…read morefrom the San Antonio airport, and Blanco was on our way home. There were several Blanco restaurants with good reviews, and we chose this one because we were both in the mood for a good burger. It did not disappoint!! We were greeted by a friendly server and seated right away when we arrived. The place was nice and clean and has a good, small-town vibe. We both ordered the goat burger. It came out hot, fresh, and cooked to order for each of us. We both agreed it was one of the best burgers we'd ever had. My sweet potato fries were also excellent. I live about an hour away, but it's good enough that I plan to make the drive just to eat here again. We didn't try the beer, so I can't speak to that, but my friend said her iced tea was good.

He finally came. And we ordered drinks and he immediately brought the two . He took our order and brought us our food. The food was very, very good. When it came time to pay, the server got upset because I was using one dollar coins to pay. I was paying in American legal tender one dollar coins and he says we do not accept this as payment. I said they are legal tender one dollar coins and he says again we do not accept this kind of payment. So I ended up using my debit card. This place does not accept legal one dollar coins for payment of any type. I asked to speak to a manager and he says we do not have a manager here. I always use one dollar establishments around there. They always accept them. We will not be going back there. Because they do not accept American legal of one dollar coins. His demeanor and attitude immediately became rather distasteful. this kind of we will not be going back there this establishment for the local area.

Overpriced and weak drinks, atmosphere is pleasant enough, as I said the locals were friendly and welcoming, it I suspect that given a choice in Blanco, even the locals would abandon it for a better and reasonably priced drink, without the X rated " entertainment " from behind the bar.

When we were poking around looking for breweries in the area on Yelp we came across The Shady Llama! This place doesn't make their own beer but they have lots of guest taps for breweries in the surrounding area. It's a good variety of beers to choose from and it looks like there is at least one food truck available sometimes in case you get hungry. The main draw for why we came here was to see the llamas and indeed we dis see some. One of them gave us some attitude and then sauntered off down a hill, taking it's less moody companion with it. They were funny and with the attitude I got and the name of the place I posted the Eminem song "My Name Is" where the lyrics "Slim Shady" get mentioned on Instagram because I thought it was all quite fitting. In addition to seeing the llamas we saw a great view of Hill Country. There was a lot of seating when we were here and could pick pretty much anywhere we wanted to sit. But I'm sure the place can get busy... the location and those llamas are reason enough. Cold beer, moody llamas and beautiful Hill Country... definitely worth the stop!

You can drink a different beer in every different type of seat they've got!

This review is based 100% on them catering my daughter's wedding early this year. They exceeded my…read moreexpectations! When we were checking out different suppliers for catering drinks at her wedding, we found out several things. Those included limited selection of companies in the area, prices ranging from low to exorbitant, and much difference in how those different companies interacted with us and our questions. Bourbon and Branch was the hands down winner. They were not the cheapest, but they were very willing to work with us. On the day of the wedding, they came early for set up. They interacted with all of the wedding party and gave everyone a "warm fuzzy feeling" which put the moms at ease. The actual bartender was a hit. She was funny, efficient, friendly, and kept the drinks flowing smoothly. Will I return? I don't have any more kids to marry off but based on my experience with them, I will definitely try their bar. If you have a wedding planned and are in need of bartender services, I recommend you give this business an opportunity for your most important date.
