My wife and I had the pleasure of staying in New Braunfels last week to watch our grandson while…read morehis parents were out of town for a friend's wedding. One morning we decided to take him and walk around Gruene and eat lunch. There wasn't much going on there, so we got back in the car and headed elsewhere to eat. I had never been to Buttermilk Cafe, but my wife has been several times with the grandson and his parents. I got a little nervous when we went inside. It was a bustling place, and I was concerned that the wait might be too much for the baby. Fortunately, the wait was about five minutes. This place smells like heaven. The food that we ordered was wonderful. I had the house smoked salmon with toast points and a poached egg. My wife had a slice of quiche, an orange muffin, and some fruit. The baby had a turkey sausage patty, one of my toast points, and some of my wife's fruit. Everyone was super friendly. The staff were wearing football jerseys to celebrate the Super Bowl. Our server was terrific. The patrons were all happy and sociable.

What a great property. We had an amazing time and really enjoyed the clean glamping experience. The…read morecottages are awesome with a wide variety of options to choose from, including larger deluxe suites and poolside cabins. 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.

And I'll say right up front, the food was very good. From a short stack of pancakes (still huge) with a side of sausage links to the avocado toast with eggs and a side of bacon, the food was very good quality and flavor. What was disappointing was that the service was lacking. The hostess wasn't busy as we walked in but seemed preoccupied with wiping menus instead of acknowledging our party. We finally said "hello" and then were acknowledged and seated but no real greeting or enthusiasm. Similar behavior from our waitress. No niceties, just "do you want something to drink". When our coffee was delivered we asked for water and they were promptly delivered without any words but no straws. Maybe water isn't automatic here and maybe straws aren't either? Later, I flagged down the waitress to ask for straws and we got 4 straws --- for 2 persons ... ok. Again the food was great but my coffee cup sat empty from early on, needing a refill and I finally had to ask for it. I hope this isn't the norm.. and it wasn't terrible, but for such good food, you'd hope the service would match.

I also noticed that they seem to have a lot of regulars, which is always a good sign for a local breakfast place. It was myself, my husband, and his parents dining together, and we all ordered the Country Fried Steak. In my personal opinion, it was comparable to something you might get at a chain like Denny's or IHOP. When it comes to country fried steak, I personally prefer cubed steak that has a bit more texture and isn't overly tender or didn't have burger patty texture -- this one reminded me more of a patty. The gravy lacked a bit of flavor for my taste, and we ended up seasoning it ourselves. It didn't come across as homemade. I also wish the hash browns had been crispier on top. That said, the restaurant itself is very cute, and I loved the antique décor. It has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that adds to the overall dining experience.

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
