    Came here because Your Mom's moved in. It's a couple doors down from the original location. Cute ice cream parlor shop vibe with ice cream, coffee and food options. There doesn't seem to be any Cajun on this menu, but the food was still good and the service was friendly. My favorite was the hummus! Such good flavors and great homemade pita chips! It's a bit chaotic for dining when the ice cream business picks up. The choice seating would be a high top near the entry way.

    The food was good, but the wait of 45 minutes canceled out the good experience. Located on the main drag, this 80's themed restaurant is situated near antique stores and boutiques, making it easy to find within walking distance.

    We went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't too busy at all. The staff was super friendly and the decor was cute and funky. My son loves cookies and cream ice cream so we got a vanilla and they added Oreos to the top. It was delicious! My husband wanted a banana split but they were out of bananas so he opted for it without anyway. The chocolate ice cream was super rich and creamy! We will be back again to try more!

    The milkshakes are out of this world. So, so grateful that this cute little place is nearby me. Cannot wait to take family and friends from out of town here for a treat they'll never forget!

    This is a new Mexican cafe, open for breakfast and lunch…read more They did a good job with the ambiance inside, with beautiful barn doors and a butterfly theme. And they keep the place exceptionally clean. Our server made us feel very welcome even though we showed up just before closing time (they close at 2 pm Tue - Sun and are closed all day Monday). Half the menu was breakfast and the other half was lunch. Beverages were colas, coffee, tea, lemonade and horchata. Lunch here is your typical Mexican lunch menu: tacos, enchiladas, quesadillas, fajitas, etc. They also had two specials today: Enchiladas Verde and Quesabirria Tacos. We tried and enjoyed both. The enchiladas had a lot of chicken in them. And while the birria lacked its typical au jus to dip the tacos in, they were still quite authentic and flavorful. The complimentary chips and salsa comes with a bean dip, and with two additional chile options, a spicy red chile and a chile verde. It was nice having all those options. For a healthier option, they also offer a large bowl of tortilla soup with spanish rice on the side. I'm not sure why they choose to open a Mexican restaurant right next to a Mexican restaurant, but the two restaurants are very different and keep different hours. We will come back to try their breakfast, as that appears to be their specialty.

    Limited service hours but the breakfast tacos were amazing and very large. They have almost…read moreanything you want added to your tacos. Will definitely keep. This on my return list.

    I was after some gluten free cookies, and I didn't want to drive into Austin to find any. After…read moregoogling local gluten free bakeries, Tough Cookie Bakery in Bastrop came up. They have gluten free options as well as vegan options and options for those who can have gluten. I went there for three out of the six days that I was on vacation in that area. I had originally wanted a chocolate chip cookie, but they didn't do just regular gluten free ones. However they did have gluten free peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, but I thought I would try it since I was really craving a cookie. I had just the one, and it was so so so good! It didn't taste overly of peanut butter which was a win for me! It had just the right amount of peanut butter and chocolate chips. It was crispy around the edges and chewy towards the middle. I went back that same day and got two more of those cookies. The other days I went I got the same thing. One day, I did try their gluten free apple butter bar which was just as amazing! Service was fantastic! Each day I went, there was someone I hadn't seen before working. Each of them were super nice and friendly. The bakery itself had a very calm ambiance about it. It had a lot of space inside if you wanted to eat your meal or dessert inside or you could get it to go. I also love how Tough Cookie Bakery supports the LGBTQ+ community. There was a pride flag painted outside of the bakery, and that just made me love the place that much more! I would definitely recommend Tough Cookie Bakery in Bastrop. I can't wait to go back once we're back in the area at the end of this month.

The only letdown was finding out that the ice cream isn't homemade or unique to the shop--it's just Blue Bell. Now, as a lifelong Blue Bell fan, I'll never turn it down, but with a place that has so much originality and character, we were hoping for a menu that reflected that same spirit. Still, it's a cute spot and worth a visit for the atmosphere alone.
