    Perfect breakfast/lunch spot right off the main drag near campus. Large parking lot, spacious inside seating and the staff was super friendly. My favorite part was the menu, lots of options across the board from healthy chia seed puddings to a burger. I got the chia pudding bowl with their homemade granola, fresh fruit, and almond butter toast which was all yummy. A little pricey for what you get but enjoyed my meal overall. Their drink menu was great too. I chose a fresh juice which was delicious!

    Healthy morning drink

    Totally impressed by the menu inviting soo many vegetarian and healthy food options! Multi grain pancakes, power bowls, salads, brown rice burgers, mixed juices, you name it. The morning meditation drink with ginger and turmeric was so refreshing and veggie burger with side mixed greens was delicious. Our server was friendly, helpful and quick. Totally recommend this cute spot if you are around the College Station area.

    Can't wait to visit here again! Food was phenomenal! Try the million dollar bacon!! Doesn't cost a million dollars but it sure tastes like it! My husband had the traditional breakfast and enjoyed every bite!! I also liked the hash I ordered! The preserves were delicious!! Good coffee! Great food. Excellent service. Bathrooms were a slight issue but they made accomodations! My husband cut himself on the seat and they brought him a bandaid.

    This is relaxed and cool Brunch place that is known for its fresh and seasonal flavors. Expect some waiting on Sunday as it is a go to for many students. The service is super friendly and well organized. Selected their Baja Turkey Burger a lean white meat turkey with avocado, some house made pico de gallo and mayo with a brioche. This is an epic place!

    Tomato bisque

    Decided to give this place a try today. Being new to the area; I'm going at a slow and deliberate pace through all the eateries in the BCS area. Upon arriving, I saw a fairly busy dining room filled with smells of delicious food. I waited about 2-3 minutes before someone helped me, and again, they were a bit busy. I chose the turkey burger, thinking it was a regular turkey sandwich. And as a side, I chose the tomato bisque. I then waited about 15 minutes for my to-go order; which was fine as it gave me a chance to catch up on work emails. When I got to work, I found the sandwich, not a regular turkey sandwich but a turkey burger, and soup were both still hot. However, there were no napkins or plastic ware. The turkey burger was flavorful and delicious, as was the soup. The lady who helped me at the restaurant was both polite and helpful. However, she missed those tiny details, which are so important. Plus, I think she was training someone new, so double yikes for not paying attention to detail. Anyways, I'll definitely be back. Their breakfast menu looked amazing, and I'll probably dine in next time. Hopefully, whoever waits on me has that attention for detail!

    I was SO EXCITED to find out that there is a Cookshack in College Station!…read more We stopped here for lunch on a Sunday before heading home. We were BLOWN AWAY by the number of college students, dressed in their Sunday's best, openly praying over their food before enjoying some awesome chicken. It was SO NICE TO SEE! We ordered a family meal (20 pieces), 2 sides of fries and a chicken sandwich meal. We paid around $40. Great value! The food came out quick and arrived hot and fresh. I had a slight "issue" where I thought my chicken wasn't fully cooked and the manager reassured me that it was just breading but happily remade my sandwich to give me peace of mind. I REALLY appreciated that. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals, literally leaving "not a fry left behind." The size of my chicken on the sandwich was HUGE- had to be hanging off the roll by 2" on each side! Staff were phenomenal. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Love the laid back decor. Plenty of seating inside and some tables outdoors as well. Definitely recommend!

The Cookshack has a different vibe and feels more like a lunch or dinner spot, while Mess is the perfect breakfast place. Alright, who am I reviewing again? Right. The Cookshack has some great options, and my wife and I went for the Chicken & Waffles. I chose the hottest seasoning they had--pretty sure it was ghost pepper--and yeah, it was spicy but didn't make me miserable. There was a lot of food, and it definitely filled us up. My wife got mac n cheese with hers and really enjoyed every bite. The cashier was nice and attentive. The atmosphere is great for a lunch or dinner date. Plus, they have large booths, which we really appreciate.

My husband flagged down another waitress after we had been sitting there for 15 minutes without any water or drinks. We also had to flag her down for the check. Considering the price tag for the night, I expected the service to be better.

I t came with hush puppies and coleslaw. I added the fried okra as my side. My wife had the gulf shrimp as well and couldn't stop raving about it. Everything was delicious.

    Very nice counter staff. Small menu, the burgers are too lean. The Bulgogi Burger was very good…read more The buns are also good. Moist and just right. We were hoping it would be a better burger because we came to see our Grandson and wanted a nicer place.

    The Burger house... or should I say Shack cause that's what it looks like !…read more I was in C station trying to find a good burger place. I used to live around Hempstead, Prairie view and Waller a couple years ago when I first came to Texas and it was kinda hard finding good places to eat ' I'm not gonna lie I was scouring yelp for about 30 mins before I stumbled across Burger House. I even got to the point where I asked some locals and they said Burger House was a burger staple in C station. Upon looking at the photos, it seemed like a burger that you make at the house to be candid. When I pulled up, I was like "oh wow this place look like a straight shack that's fasho." I decided to go through the drive-through & when I pulled up to the drive-through the gentleman who took my order was hella welcoming and just overall nice like he was happy I pulled up. I swear I was the highlight of my visit. I ended up getting the combo , bacon cheeseburger with fries and a drink, and it was for decent price too. The burger itself was mediocre if I'm being honest, the meat lacked some seasoning, though the fries were pretty decent with a soft inside, light crisp outside. I like the fact they put the lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles on the side instead of in the burger which can make it soggy. So there was some attention to detail. The Bun though? That thang was soft on the outside and was lightly toasted on the inside, which was dope. Would I be back? If I'm being honest, just to say wasup to the gentlemen who took my order and that's about it!
