“Came here based on a recommendation and it was pretty good. We should really come back for a fair assessment but our experience wasn't anything that would prevent us from coming back. The food was good, the service was a little slow. The atmosphere was kinda like old school cafe style. I had the catfish and she had the shrimp, both fried.

“The Orchard Bistro has the freshest and most delicious meals. This is my favorite spot in Gainesville. Jeff and Maggie are the kindest and well informed when it comes to health and wellness. (I’m sure on plenty of other subjects too) I’ve tried quite a few of their products and love the results. I’ve asked their advice numerous of occasions and they always have a well educated answer. The atmosphere is perfect and they have a great location, not to far from the square. The coffee, the tea, the food, the healthcare products/ herbs, are all top quality. You won’t find another place like it.“

“cracker barrel is always our go too place to eat while traveling. this one we stopped at in Gainesville, Tx was no exception except one little burp. the country ham had a funky taste and smell to it. I didn't eat it but besides that it's a great establishment!“

“I had a hunch this place was the real deal the moment I stepped out of my truck. The aroma of freshly smoked meat mixed with sweet and tangy BBQ flavor inundated the gravel parking lot. A scent so overwhelmingly captivating, I couldn’t help but follow it to its source. I walked through the front doors of 902 and was immediately greeted by a charismatic waiter who promptly served us drinks. The menu was concise, yet powerful. Along with the atmosphere, all menu items complemented a cold beer and a sports game. I went with the brisket grilled cheese sandwich, served on 100% USDA Texas Toast. Mouthwatering is an understate, to say the least. After I consumed my fair share in cheesy caloric delight, the owner came out and greeted us with a warm smile, and freshly smoked chicken. My favorite part about this establishment is its commitment to keeping things simple, yet refining its craft through friendly employees, quality ingredients, and a home town feel. I look forward to my next visit.“

“Great atmosphere with great bar staff!“

“Excellent cobbler! Best “crust & crumble top” I think I’ve ever had!!“

“Great wings, great food, great people.“

“I can't speak highly enough of our server Audri!! She was absolutely amazing 👏 She was friendly, attentive, efficient and thorough! She even went above and beyond, meeting our needs before we even realized what they were! I have never had a waitress so good at her job that it left me speechless or even wanting to leave a review! Please applaud her and cherish the rarity of such a hard worker! She is truly one of a kind! ❤️“

“My husband & I were there last night about 11p. Even though they weren’t busy, you didn’t see any of them just standing around doing nothing. They were all working together to get the next order out. The restaurant was clean (which is rare for WH’s) and Molly (our waitress) was AMAZING! Will definitely visit this location again!“

“Services was great, very friendly staff. I got the bacon double, comes with mustard onions and pickles with 2 smashed patties, very good!
Fries were very salty but I love the skinny style. Onion rings could have been cooked a bit more for extra crunch but those were great too. Overall I'd recommend, way better than your normal fast food burgers.“

“The Rib Crib restaurant chain as a whole has always exceeded my expectations. Every BBQ restaurant chain always has a different view as to what makes quality BBQ. I like my BBQ lean with little to no fat and the meat that Rib Crib uses is outstanding. Their ribs & pork are always cooked perfectly and they are tender & taste great. Highly recommended.
