“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.“

“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!“

“It looks like a gas station on the outside, but on the inside they have created a homey, rustic restaurant. It was clean and relaxing.

The sweets in the bakery look incredibly tempting and delicious. We're taking some snickerdoodles to go. They have pies too.

For our meal, we chose the burgers and onion rings, and the catfish special with fries and hush puppies. Everyone shared and tried a little bit of the different flavors. Other tables around us had chicken and waffles, pancakes, and sandwiches. Everything looked so good it was difficult to choose.

The server, Heather, was very nice. The food was made fresh, so it took a few minutes.

This was a great place to stop and rest on our trip through Brenham.“

“I enjoyed our dinner there! Our serve was wonderful! He did not mind my noisy kids :) Very attentive and when I asked for their spiciest salsa, the gentlemen was wonderful and let me know they had another option. He answered all of my kids questions and made great food suggestions for them since they do not have a children’s menu. At the end of it all, my kids had the soft tacos and I had the enchiladas de crema, which I’d heard of but had never tried! They were delicious! Accompanied by some grilled Chile Serranos and it sealed the deal! I love spicy food :) Again, they did not mind my kiddos which was a HUGE plus for me!“

“Food was fabulous!! We got the Calamari and the Pickles for our app, Both were spot on. Our side salads were fresh, and complete. Not just some lettuce in a bowl. Our entrees were the shrimp scampi and shrimp Alfredo. To be honest, I have never had better Scampi. Just a perfect balance of garlic and butter !!
Our waitress was a one woman show, and we would have never noticed, our tea glasses never got empty, and there was no lag in between courses.
Eat here. You will not be dissapointed.“
