Not the fastest service but not too bad. Then you have to pay at the gas station side after you eat. I found the brisket to be very good but it did not have a smoke flavor which was disappointing. The sausage was good. The coleslaw a bit too sweet for me. My total was $12 for not bad at all for bar b q. The staff even figured out it was cheaper for me to pay for the 2 meat plate and get a side than just meat Alavert. Very nice of them. Overall there are limited places for lunch in Stockdale and I would eat here again. Will try a few other places and review next month when I am back.

The food, which in my case was a hamburger was absolutely wonderful. The french fries were equally well done. The portions are generous and given how busy the restaurant is it was very well prepared. Again, given how busy this particular restaurant is the service is amazingly efficient, and the staff is very nice. Although I would suggest it is not a place you would necessarily want to come to relative to its ambience on the other hand you would miss a wonderful meal if you did not. In my case I chose the meal over the ambience and it was well worth it and that is the reason I give it five stars.

I arrived at 12:45 on a Friday. We planned a later lunch to avoid a crowd. My first time there and…read moreI walked into a packed dining room and a line of 10-12 people to order at the counter. But by the time my friend arrived about 1:10 the line had disappeared and the crowd was quickly thinning out. I had the farmhouse club and my friend went with a salad (I forget which one). My sandwich was absolutely delicious and I cleaned it up. His salad was enormous and he couldn't finish it. He had enough leftover to take home for another meal. Neither came with a side but they are available for purchase. The restaurant is bright and cheerful inside with plenty of seating. And the staff are very friendly and eager to assist throughout the meal. The only downside is their prices being a little high for the type of setting so one star off. I will probably return anyway for the delicious sandwich. But I wish it came with chips!

I've had a few meals at this location, and I'm really hoping this place sticks around. The space…read morehas been through several different restaurants over the years, including Oakmont Cafe and Doc's. I've been for both lunch and dinner, and lunch is clearly the peak time, which makes sense given the sandwich, salad, and soup menu. It feels built for the midday lunch crowd. The kitchen runs very efficiently, the line moves quickly, and online ordering is very easy. It's counter service, but I've taken meals to go a few times and everything traveled well. As of February 2026, it still has that brand new restaurant feel. The interior is bright, clean, and modern, and there's a ton of outdoor seating. However, you are just off 38th Street and across from the Seton medical complex, so al fresco dining may not be the quietest experience depending on traffic and time of day. Overall, a great addition to the area for lunch (or dinner).

You can tell they put real care into every detail, from the perfectly pulled espresso to the friendly conversation at the counter. It's the kind of place you think about long after you leave, and honestly, worth going out of your way for. One last note, it's a drive thru place only.

It was a bit on the sweet side but still enjoyable. Ambiance: There is an outside patio, though it's fairly quiet in the morning. It might be a good spot for a date. I can't comment on the noise levels in the afternoon, but the proximity to the highway could be a factor. Service: The establishment is drive-thru only. The staff were very nice and made some great recommendations of their favorite treats. Price: The prices are average and fair.
