    Such a great spot in Boerne for soup and sandwiches. They are super fast even when the line is long. Rotating fresh soups each day, all different types of sandwiches from turkey to pastrami. Then the pies are southern sinful. The sweet tea is always brewing and they will make a table for you.

    I've been a huge fan of this place my entire life. We ate here a lot in high school! The sandwiches are so fresh and tasty ; I've been a Brainstorm guy most of my life, but the new Rancher sandwich they've added has taken over my top spot! Turkey, cheese, bacon, and their amazing ranch dressing on hot sourdough bread? Yes please! Don't sleel on the soups and desserts, either! The potato soup is so good, just like your grandma used to fix and the pies are outrageously good! The staff is always kind and friendly. I always pop my head in the kitchen to thank them for a mighty tasty meal. Be sure to check out the mural on the back wall and see what places you might recognize!

    Line was halfway through the cafe, so I figured the place must be good. If the only complaint I have is waiting in line, then I have to say this place is definitely on my must return list. Love the sandwiches, pickle and chips. Pies looked amazing, but I talked myself out.

    Not a bad place but the hype is greater than it should be. Don't get me wrong here, the food is above average and the service is always with a smile. And the pies, well they are fresh made and because of that, they are superior. The place has one major problem, it is severely outdated and awkwardly cramped with stuff stored all over the place. You need bread crumbs to leave a trail to the restroom because you might have to navigate multiple rooms and a haphazardly placed dangerous step to find it and your way back. The whole place is not really set up for disabled due to that large step in the middle of the walkway separating rooms. There is also just years of grime that is deeply embedded into the floor, the walls and just everywhere. Again don't get me wrong, it is clean because the staff stays on top of the daily cleaning but after years of renovation neglect the place is just tired. So if you have made it this far, Bumdoodlers offers above average menu with superior pies and great staff but has an atmosphere that transports me back to staying at my hoarder of a man, father-in-laws house. Like I want to be here because it is good food but at the same time I want to only stay as long as I have to.

    Excellent place to grab lunch! The staff is super friendly and the food was really good! The selection of pies and goodies is pretty good!

    Special of the day - turkey bacon ranch
    Adrianna C.

    We have been in twice now. They were very busy both times, but we didn't have to wait long. Service was very friendly. The sandwiches are very simple but yummy and incredibly affordable. I haven't been disappointed this far. We have tried a number of their pies and cheesecakes and have loved every one. Their turtle cheesecake and Elvis pie are our favorites in particular. Check their special of the day. I can't recall the exact name but when I came in recently on a Thursday they had a turkey bacon ranch which I really loved. We live near six flags but will happily drive here for a sandwich and slice of their incredible pie or cheesecake.

    Brainstorm for me and a Gobbler w/ potato soup for the Infiniti guru across the table. Delicious! Love the staff here. The fun atmosphere makes it a Boerne classic.

    I LOVE bums! This is a great spot for a light lunch and have so many wonderful options! I prefer the gobbler sandwich with the thick bread! Always ask for two pickles! They have so many options to choose from. I've tried many of the sandwiches and the gobbler is my favorite. They are super busy once it hits at 12pm. They are great for customer service and speed of receiving my food. I personally love the chocolate pie with whip cream for dessert. I've never been disappointed when I go here and will continue to support this small business. Great food! Great service!

    Old Rancher (turkey, Swiss and bacon with ranch) and side of potato chips.

    Huge sandwiches and great deserts. Quick service. Was surprised to see two of the three seating sections closed an hour before closing on a Saturday; which only left 4 small tables (which meant we had to split up our party over two tables).

    Delicious Texas flavors and wonderful atmosphere..... I love the laid back vibe on Main Streetread more

    Beware The "Pastrami Reuben"…read more I saw that hundreds of people on Yelp had reviewed Cibolo Creek Brewing and overall ratings were over 4 stars. I should have done a bit more reading and looking at the pictures. We stopped in on a mid-afternoon Sunday in early June. First impression upon entering through the front door was confusion. It was not really clear what the process was to order and get a seat. We approached the bar area and then noticed the "order here and seat yourself" signs. Several people came in behind us and so we felt a bit rushed to order. There were several craft beers on tap, but I was told I could not get a flight at the moment. I was able to get a taster, but with all the people behind me waiting to order, I didn't feel I had time to find out more about the beers before committing to a 16oz pour or lose my place in line. Shame on me for not doing my homework. We tried "The BEST Burger" and the "Pastrami Reuben", both with fries and two beers for close to $60 plus tip. The burger wasn't the best. It was sort of "meh". The homemade fries were good. The so-called Reuben was closer to a brisket sandwich than an actual Reuben. The meat was very mesquite-wood-smokey and then appeared to have been fried on a grill (definitely not steamed). It was very chewy despite being thinly sliced and had NONE of the flavor good pastrami has. The menu claims the meat is tri-tip, but tri-tip is known to be a tender cut. The meat on that sandwich was NOT tender. Cibolo Creek Brewery is in a great location (which sort of explains the prices) right next to the Cibolo Creek Trail and River Road Park and they do have a nice covered outdoor seating area with large family-style picnic tables. I may return to sample a few more of their beers and see if there is something I like better on the menu.

    Alright, while we're talking wings, we need to talk about Sauced Wing Bar in Boerne…read more This place is legit. First, the wings are HUGE. They're clearly using jumbo wings, and you immediately notice the difference. Crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and they don't disappear under all the sauce. Speaking of sauce, I have no idea how many they have. 10? 15? 5,000? There are enough that every time I come in, I try something different--and I have yet to find one that disappoints. What really separates Sauced from a lot of wing places, though, is that they're actually doing the work. Everything is homemade and prepared from scratch in the kitchen, and you can taste it. The atmosphere is fantastic. Plenty of TVs, plenty of staff, and everyone seems to know exactly what they're supposed to be doing. The team is attentive, friendly and genuinely seems happy to be there. As someone who has spent a lot of years in restaurants, I notice that stuff. I've eaten a lot of wings. I make a pretty damn good wing myself. But when somebody does it better, you give them their flowers. Sauced Wing Bar in Boerne does wings better.

    I was in Boerne and wanted a snack. It was a Monday and I saw that they have the $1 wings. I…read moredecided to check it out. It turned out that they don't... maybe they need to update their social media. I ordered the 10 wings with fries. The girl was confused regarding the $1 wings as much as I was. She was very kind though to go ask. I don't like my wings drenched in sauce and this is exactly how they made them. The wings were delicious! It is a sports bar. Even on a Monday the restaurant was full.

Very nice. Our waitress was friendly, and our starter of mozzarella sticks and marinara arrived quickly. I thought they were good, but my wife thought they were excellent. My rating would be 3.5 stars out of 5, my wife gives it 5 out of 5. Staffing seemed very impressive, with more than adequate staff and all seemed friendly. I ordered the pollo alla griglia and my wife ordered the veal parmigiana. For my order, with the vegetables, I would rate it 5 out of 5! Vegetables and the seasoning was amazing! The chicken was excellent, and the lemon butter sauce was incredible! Definitely would order this again! My wife rated her food 4.5 out of 5. She found the veal to be a little salty. Overall, an excellent experience and I would highly recommend dining here.

    The ambience might not be Old World Italian with a Chianti bottle candle holder on your table, but…read morethe food certainly is. In fact there are two shining stars of Luciano's, food and service. A basket of fresh, hot and soft bread rolls hits the the table almost as soon as we sat down. We had the fried Calamari appetizer for the two of us and it was enough to be a meal by itself. Don't let the underwhelming descriptions on the menu fool you, the Shrimp Luciano comes with 6 super-sized shrimp that are beautiful and lightly encrusted on top of perfectly prepared buttery spaghetti. In order to keep the light crunch of the shrimp from getting soggy, the lemon butter sauce sits on the bottom of the bowl for dipping and sopping as desired. Every dish I saw comes from the kitchen looking "photo ready". Great presentation. What really made this evening pop was our server's attention to our table. Sophia never left a single detail unattended. If she felt our drink was taking too long (which I didn't), she'd apologize and let us know she was going to check on it. Her attention to detail and perfect timing was an absolute complement to the quality of the food. I didn't feel like she was waiting on us, it felt more like we had our own personal representative on staff. Finally, ambience...probably the weakest link of Luciano's, the conversation level is loud enough in the room that you don't feel like you have to whisper for privacy giving the room a lively and family friendly feel. There is background music playing but it's almost non-existent, in fact I had to stop and tilt my head to detect it. Personally I like a little background music and it wouldn't hurt to turn up the volume a notch. Over the long bar is a single screen with muted sound playing an NBA game. Luciano's is not over-priced with great food and great service. I'll be back
