    Beautiful, large yard/outdoor seating area perfect for social distancing! #TheYard

    Jack & Mary's is easily one of my favorite places in Schulenburg! A hip, modern, and colorful store that supports other local businesses. I love supporting local small businesses and this in an all-in-one stop. The coffee here is great and I highly recommend their dirty chai (chai latte with espresso), it was so delicious!! Lavender lattes here are also great. This is the only place in mileeees that has boba tea which is amazing! I'm so excited to have something so cute in Schulenburg that brings some items to a small town that can usually only be found when I go to a bigger city. They do take out orders and will have it ready if you call in your order or you can sit inside or outside. The atmosphere is really welcoming and casual, there's lots of room to safely meet up with friends, have kids run around and play games in The Yard, or sit and study for my college exams with the WiFi they offer. It's really fun when they have live music and food specials on the weekend but COVID has unfortunately made it hard to do those safely so there haven't been any, but I can't wait until they start to do them again in the future! The service is great and they have tons of cute products that make for the perfect souvenir or gift, I even did my Christmas shopping here! It's the perfect stop for both tourists and locals and helps bring more life into small town!

    Very cute location with nice outdoor seating. I came here on the weekend with my dog and boyfriend and had a nice time sitting outside and enjoying the day.

    Needed a quick coffee stop in between Houston & San Antonio and this will now be a regular stopping place for me.

I was disappointed in the Ruben sandwich. Mind you, it was served warm as most are, but after eating Reubens from delis with lots of meat, from the photos you can see that my Reuben from here had a skimpy serving of meat. Additionally, I thought that the menu had it at one price and the register rung it up as $1.00 higher. I found that it is a dollar more for a salad. It comes standard with chips. That's reasonable to me and I thought that the salad was good. My spouse had the burger, and she enjoyed it. She liked that it came with a choice of fries or a healthy salad. I was pleased that a Zero Coke was only $2.00. That's extremely reasonable!

Looking forward to trying Tillie's again next time we pass thru. The cafe is well maintained and the food was decent. We also loved the ambiance - very relaxing. The service was very bad. The servers acted as though serving us was a massive inconvenience from the moment we walked in. Our questions were met with eye rolls and borderline rude answers that made us feel unwelcome.

I don't think that itself harms the score but certainly some upgrades to bathrooms would not hurt. The decorum likely from wallpaper to interior finishes may have remained untouched since the 60's which gives it a very rustic feel. Going to win the battle in food for certain demographics..seeing kielbasa sausage with sauerkraut and bacon I am right at home. Country fried pork, cooked cabbage, real mashed potatoes and I follow you anywhere, but realize it's not for everyone. There was a salad bar section but I was interested in other items. Some items were not really warm like the sausage, fried chicken, beef stew compared to other items like country friend pork sitting right beside them which was disappointing. Still food flavor was good and this is good ole' fashioned recipe prep. Chicken soup was very good and scalding hot. Hot peach cobbler and banana pudding for desserts were very good and would put the banana pudding in a state fair contest and confidently claim blue ribbon status prior to judging. Don't let the score fool you, I'd be back just because it's my comfort food preference and I have some tolerance but for families getting off the highway with picky eaters may keep going. Country folks and truckers coming off a long day will appreciate the down home feel.

    What a pleasant surprise it was to find this lovely casual restaurant tucked inside what was once…read morean old home and now part of a garden supply nursery and marketplace. We had a group of 8 adults who had just completed touring 2 of the Painted Churches, in and around Schulenburg. While our tour guide greeted several servers as we entered like old friends, I don't think that was the cause of their friendliness to our group as a whole, I saw them happily greeting everyone and providing excellent service. Our happy server quickly took drink orders, you can tell when a server is confident in her job and knows the routines as she never wrote anything down but when she returned with drinks, the orders were all correct. She then took orders for lunch, we had a variety of offerings from the menu. I decided on the Tzatziki Salad, a nicely presented Greek style salad with grilled chicken breast slices and some tzatziki with pita points. Others around me had the Rueben and the grilled chicken salad and said everything was perfect. I also heard great things about the home made chicken salad and their hamburgers. And if you feel like your garden needs a bit more color, just step into the garden center after lunch and pick out some lovely plants to take home!

I was pleasantly surprised at the absolutely amazing freshness and quality of the food and modern/light atmosphere of this place (a bit unexpected after a few lackluster food experiences in Schulenberg leading up to our lunch here). It was every bit at good as some of the cafes I've eaten in major cities (where there is heavy dining competition). Mom and I both ordered their delicious chicken salad sandwich, piled high (but not too thickly) with shredded chicken on perfectly baked, flaky (but not too flaky) croissant bread. The chicken salad was a perfect blend of seasonings with a few cranberries for a little sweetness. Divine! Each sandwich came with a side of crispy/perfect (seemingly handmade) chips. Our tour guide ordered a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich which she seemed to really enjoy as well, complete with perfectly buttered and crisp grilled sourdough bread. The atmosphere was very modern and new yet warm and dotted with beautiful antique pieces (be sure to check out the old buffet across from the bathroom doors, gorgeous!). And this place seemed packed with many locals in their brunch attire to enjoy the great food and great hospitality of the wait staff. Behind the restaurant, they also host a beautiful nursery where you can browse under the trees through their fairly extensive collection of plants (flowering and non flowering - we saw some variations of native flowering plants we've either never seen before or don't see often so my mom purchased a few for her garden!), chat with the very knowledgeable and friendly owner of the nursery, browse the little nursery gift shop full of unique and beautiful items, and even visit with the sweet "shop" kitties (who seem to like to hang out near the nursery gift shop entrance) if you wish. All in all, a very special experience at this gem in Schulenberg. We will definitely make this our number one stop for meals (and to buy more plants) in Schulenberg when we return!
