Food is always amazing. Service can be kind of slow but most days, it’s good. The inside is beautiful for that old time charm!

Excellent place to eat in Nacogdoches with everything fresh. We stop in and eat here at least once every time we visit Nac. Look at the care put into making my Cobb salad, and it tasted just as nice.

I prefer the restaurant how it used to be when they first opened & were consistent with their efforts & upkeeps. The service & food quality have consistently dropped over the last couple years. I was a regular customer when attending SFA & usually like to visit everytime I go back to Nacogdoches as well. The food has just not lived up to its previous quality the past 3-5 times I’ve eaten there. The service is hit or miss. The atmosphere is the only thing that’s stayed consistently great. I wish they would add at least 1-2 vegetarian options or dairy free options. You’re in a college town, there’s bound to be people with special diets. You would expand your customer base. When they first opened, the managers were more open to making tweaks to certain dishes to make them vegetarian, offering a unique & hospitable dining experience. That has long gone from this restaurant unfortunately. Also, the truffle fries are smaller portions & the grease has tasted old the last 3 times.

Charming cafe in the Historic Fredonia Hotel in Nacogdoches, the oldest town in Texas. The cafe and hotel is set in a classic late 1950's decor and vibe.

Food is delicious and the service is impeccable. Make sure you ask for the real maple 🍁 syrup for you pancakes or waffles.

Breakfast plate was okay, the biscuit was really good. Nice view of the pool area.

The cafe is inside The Fredonia hotel a 1950’s construction so you step back in time when you enter.
We had the Fredonia hashbowl which is a bowl with fries, onions, bell peppers, ham and bacon with two eggs sitting on top. It was really good.
For “dessert” we had the pancakes and they were really good also.
Friendly staff and nice place
