Restaurants in Brenham

“I've tried every BBQ place in town and this place is hands down the best. mouth watering slap your mama good. which explains why they sell out so fast. I recommend getting there right when they open because they really do sell out quick.”

“Wow! We had sliced brisket sandwiches for lunch today (Brenham location) and they were by far the best we’ve ever had anywhere! Don’t know why anyone would put bbq sauce on it! Even the potato salad was excellent! There was a line when we got there but I expect that with any good restaurant. We have tried bbq in all parts of TX and this was by far THE BEST! We’ll be back!”

“What a delicious treasure this is. EVERYTHING we ordered was cooked to perfection. I ordered the Eggplant Parmesan which was out-of-this-world (a specialty?); grilled garlic bread; cabaret Sauvignon, garlic spinach; and their freshly made teramisu with AMAZING coffee! We left no crumbs behind. The ambiance was quaint and romantic. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and gracious. We even had a personal visit with owners Chef Brian and Gretchen Brossa to make sure we loved every bite! I can’t think of enough good things to say. What a premier dining experience you have right here in Brenham, Texas. I give them 10 Stars out of 10: Clean bathrooms, professional, friendly and knowledgeable staff, beautiful and comfortable furnishings, relaxing atmosphere (sitting out on the porch while sipping my beverage), and best of all … my priority in selecting any dining experience … is every table is adorned with fresh linens. I can’t wait to come back for lunch!”

“This is in my opinion the Best Italian Resturant around Washington county. I’m always greeted well, food and portions are amazing! Highly recommend. If I could have figured how to upload a picture of my food I would have. Absolutely yummy!”

“Great food and service. We sat at the bar and loved our experience. The smoked bacon mac n cheese is a must. We were visiting from out of town for one night and decided to try it after looking at reviews. Great vibe. If we lived there we would be regulars.”

“Wine Bar Brenham is the best place to come out and hang out chill have some amazing wine some local beer and meet new friends, play some games listen to some local talent you can’t go wrong”

“This is kind of a weird setup they use the inside of Chili's for their kitchen you have to order online and they'll bring it out to your vehicle you cannot go in and sit down and eat but the wings were good they have a decent amount of flavors it was definitely worthwhile to try it out”

“Had lunch today and got the best service in town. Ordered a burger, fried rice, and the boudin balls. Didnt catch the servers name but she was wonderful.”

“One of my favorite places in Brenham… In here at least once or twice a week sometimes more. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Love it… now… It’s a small town. If you show up and they’re full, it’s not their fault, it’s cause they’re doing a good job. Be patient it’s worth a wait!”

“Great food and great service.”

“We had a great time on our road trip to Brenham. The visitor center is small but very informative, and the staff member greeting us was incredibly welcoming and full of knowledge.

It was fascinating to watch the factory in motion, but visiting the ice cream parlor for a few affordable scoops was the real treat. Definitely worth stopping by!”

“Thank you HSF Biergarten for letting us host our baby fiesta there! Weather was a bit questionable so they let us take over the inside! Great service, great drinks and a great band! We will definitely be back, baby in tow!”

“Spent 40+ hours on the road over a weeks vacation around the Southern U.S. from TX to Florida and this was one of the only good burger places I was able to find, and I ate at plenty. Great prices too.”

“Wonderful, cozy, friendly, and chill cocktail lounge that has wonderful selection of craft cocktails, wine and beer. The staff is awesome. I asked for their Whiskey Business and the “I’m Bushwacked” (sub whiskey instead of rum) and both super yummy. This is a wonder hang out if you are alone, on a date, or with friends. Grab a drink and read a book. Grab a drink and share the latest stories.

Hash browns were perfect. Orange juice was huge! And my cookies were TO GO! This is such a locals only place. It’s a converted gas station that is perfect for breakfast! Well done yall!”

“Classic car club destination spot! Highly recommend to the classic car community and their supporters.”

“The food at this restaurant is very good to the point I eat there at least once a week and unlike other restaurants in Brenham I have never had to send food back or gotten ill from eating at Pioneer. I do want to address some of the complaints about the wait staff. He believes in giving all people no matter the age a chance at a job sometimes its that persons first job and like all jobs we just start out at we fail sometimes. So applause to Mark for giving people a start everyone has to start somewhere so give the kids a break!”

“The best Mexican restaurant in Brenham; great food and service and good people.”

“This is a great place. They were having a Halloween party and everyone was so cool.”

“None of the beers we tasted disappointed! Good body, flavors, cool names, looked amazing in the glass and tasted great. That says a lot! The interior and exterior spaces to enjoy your visit are inviting; even a play ground for the kiddos. Your dog can enjoy the outdoor spaces with you too. Music on weekends and darts! Food truck in residence! Thanks Miya for your excellent service!”

“They have a food truck it is amazing and the staff is amazing always cold beer and good atmosphere outside seating where you can take your kids during the day if you want to eat I recommend going there”

Scoop sizes and prices were good. Worth he stop in and clean as well. Friendly staff on top of that.”

“Everything is delicious, especially that California Burrito with the green sauce. Don't hesitate to stop by!”

“Small Spanish grocery with a good Mexican food kitchen serving tacos, torts and other Mexican dishes. A basic mom and pop store owned and run by a very nice couple.”

“We both had the grilled Cajun shrimp, with green beans and mac and cheese. I must say it was very good! the green beans were surprisingly well seasoned, as was the shrimp. We'll definitely come back the next time we're in Brenham. We wanted the chocolate chip ice cream Skillet but we were too full.”

“the food is made fresh on the day of catering, everything is made from scratch nothing is out of the can.”

“Love the fried dumplings and the volcano shrimp...”

“Earlywine Breakfast Blend whole bean is one of the best coffees I've ever had. I hope you continue to produce it for a long time!”

“Good food and nice atmosphere!”

“Excellent food! I had the chicken poblano plate with grilled vegetables and it was delish! The service was excellent and the server even gave us a complimentary cup of the most amazing soup. Please eat here so it’s still here when I return to Houston!”

“Thai cowboy has been consistently delicious. I always order shrimp pad Thai and my husband always ordered shrimp fried rice and were both always very pleased. I would give a 10 if I could. Thai Cowboy is our favorite!!”

They were great. The food, the workers, the customer service!!!”

“Had the absolute best experience today, Clara took extreme caution and care making my Dairy Free pizza. Her attitude and kindness while making the pizza were the absolute best customer service I’ve seen any where in Brenham, in our 5 years here! ❤️ huge thanks to her, as this was my first time eating out anywhere in town since going dairy free (again- for baby)”
