We intended to have 2 each but had to stick with one in order to function afterwards. I had the CFC Biscuit Benedict and you can customize it with spicy chicken or hot honey. I got the hot honey and it was perfect! It was so delicious I don't leave a morsel behind. My friend and I shared the salted caramel brownie for my birthday, and that was also delicious. I can't wait to come back here and this says a lot since I'm not big of fried chicken. Theirs is fried to perfection (soft on the inside and just crunchy enough on the outside). You're seriously missing out!

I have been to this restaurant several times before and it has always been one of my favorites. The…read moredrinks were amazing and the food was consistently great. Last night I finally brought my husband to try it after hyping it up for so long, and unfortunately it was a huge disappointment. Things have definitely changed. I was really looking forward to the chicken fried chicken, only to find out they were completely out of mashed potatoes. For a place known for chicken, that was surprising. So I ended up just sharing some of my husband's meal and our appetizer. The cornbread has always been something I rave about, especially with their hot honey. This time it came out dry, and the hot honey had no heat at all. It just was not the same. My husband's fried chicken was honestly the worst part. It was burnt, with a layer of black under the breading, and tasted like it had been overcooked to the point of being charred. There is no way the kitchen did not see how dark it was before serving it. That said, his sides were still great, so at least part of the meal was enjoyable. Our friend's chicken sandwich was not terrible, but it did not taste fresh like it used to. It felt more like something frozen and heavily breaded instead of the quality we had experienced before. One positive was the service. Our server was wonderful, and the rest of the staff was kind and attentive as well. I accidentally spilled my drink right after it arrived, and they were quick and gracious to replace it even though it was completely my fault. That was very much appreciated. The other issue that really took away from the experience was the atmosphere. Halfway through our meal, a large group of adults sat in the courtyard and had their children sit separately at a table right next to us, while their parents remained in another section of the patio. The kids were clearly having fun and playing games, which is great, but they were also very loud and screaming just a foot away from our table while their parents enjoyed quiet drinks elsewhere. There were completely open sections of the patio farther away where they could have sat, so it was frustrating that they were placed right next to the only other table of adults trying to enjoy a night out. It ended up being very disruptive and took away from what we had hoped would be a relaxing evening. Overall, I was really disappointed. This used to be a place I highly recommended, but after this visit it feels like the quality and attention to detail have slipped. I truly hope they can get back to what made them so great before.

Beautiful place to be. The ambiance is pretty amazing. I…read morewas delayed in reviewing the place but the memories of my experience stayed with me that I could clearly share. We had light breakfast so coming here for an early lunch is not a good timing. We ended up trying their soup and appetizers on today's visit. Descent amount and pleasurable taste. I had the tortilla soup and enjoyed it, not spicy as I was told . To end the visit, the tres leches cake did not disappoint. It satisfied our cravings.

The inside is so…read moreclean and open (patio seating, too), the bathrooms are immaculate and the staff is so welcoming. You can tell everyone is genuinely happy to be there (not something you see often). We ordered the lemon blueberry pancakes (amazing), the breakfast fried rice (so many flavors and so filling!) and my husband had Joe's Sammich. Everything was made fresh and had so many elements of flavor to them! The portions are larger than they seem and so rich! Even their waffle fries are perfectly crisped and flavored! My husband loved their cold brew and I enjoyed drip coffee. We will definitely be back again to try more menu items- including the boozy coffee. The place is unique and I'm so glad it's here!

They have a soda fountain/ section with coffee where you get your own drinks, and have a seat. The restaurant has a minimal modern style, and was very clean. The bathroom was cute done in black and white decor. We ordered the lemon blueberry pancakes, when they arrived at the table, the presentation was amazing and looked delicious. Upon tasting them, absolutely no lemon taste, and the pancakes themselves were kind of gummy. Asked the co- owner woman for some syrup also could I use some butter. Her reply was it's not meant to be eaten with syrup that I would ruin the ambiance of the meal... ok... don't appreciate someone telling me how to eat my food when it definitely lacks something. Also felt rushed when asked if I was done, while still eating.

We…read moredidn't have a reservation, so we had a 40-minute wait--pro-tip: definitely make a reservation ahead of time! It was worth the wait, though. I ordered the turkey club with fries, and while it might sound like a standard order, it was hands down the best turkey club I've ever tasted. The fries were perfectly crisp and well-seasoned, too. The service was amazing, and the spot has such a great, chill vibe. If the weather were a little cooler, it would have been perfect to sit outside. Regardless, I'll definitely be back whenever I'm in the area again

The indoor pool house area with the bar and seating space was a really nice touch, and the views of the river were beautiful. There's also a large pool and a great splash pad-style area for kids, which makes it perfect for families. It's conveniently located not too far from downtown New Braunfels, but still gives you that quiet, quaint, bucolic getaway feel. Definitely a place we would stay at again.

My Must‑Stop Coffee Spot in Gruene…read more Gruene Coffee Haus is my go‑to spot every time I'm in Gruene, and since I live close by, it's an easy stop that never disappoints. The location is perfect, the vibe is cozy, and it's one of those places that just becomes part of your routine. They offer all the standard drinks along with great specialty options -- lattes, teas, smoothies -- and everything is consistently good. The service is friendly, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable for such a popular local shop. They also feature some amazing coffee beans, including my absolute favorites: Texas Pecan and Bourbon Streusel Cake. And if you want them ground, they'll do it for you on the spot. The shop itself is small, so it fills up pretty quickly, and their assorted pastries tend to go fast too -- but honestly, that just shows how loved this place is.

If you happen to be in San Marcos, don't sleep in the root cellar. Adorable and delicious!…read more It was so busy when we got there but the bar had empty seats. We were going to order a drink and wait for a table, but after visiting with the bartender a bit, we decided to stay right where we were and eat at the bar. My friend ordered the Bloody Mary, which she loved, and I got an espresso drink bc I needed coffee and alcohol! It was amazing. I'm from Louisiana so I'm usually unsure of ordering Cajun and creole dishes from places outside of my home state. But these shrimp and grits did not disappoint! I wanted to lick the bowl. And my friend's chicken and waffles looked so good. The portions were more than enough and worth every bit. And the atmosphere? Charming and adorable. If I happen to be back in San Marcos, I'll be going back

Just moved to NB and super glad that we tried this place…read more Ordered takeout via online order- upside down pineapple pancakes, strawberry cheesecake french toast, 2 brisket tacos, and the brisket omelette plate. Everything was delicious, though our favorite was the french toast. I like how they give you the option even online how you want your eggs done ! BONUS points for the fact that they gave us everything to eat with our food!- salt/pepper, salsa, ketchup, butter, jam, you name it were inside the bag . From what I saw inside, plenty of seating, and parking was kinda meh w/ a diagonal parking lot in the front BUT there is plenty in the back. Food was good, but 1000% worth coming back thanks to the hospitality of "Joe." I'm not sure if the business will see this but Joe, thanks so much for the kind welcomes and experience at your place! Be back soon.
