“Really great breakfast place. Went two days in a row on a short trip.

Portions are very reasonable, not huge or small. Pancakes and sausage one day, bagels and lox the other.

Coffee was already kept full and the staff was great too“

“Breakfast was delicious. We live in New Braunfels and now we have a new place to take our family and friends. Customer Service was fabulous very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is wonderful, loved the train theme. We all had a great time at the restaurant.“

“Interesting, varied menu and very tasty food (I particularly recommend the chicken tortilla soup). Our server was very friendly and was very careful to note down our daughter's multiple food allergies and work with the kitchen to advise us on what she could have, which was fantastic.

One niggle is that it would be great if there were more dairy-free options on the menu - one of my daughter's allergies is to milk and she felt that her choices were very limited.“

“We had lunch today on the porch! LED off with Fried Oyster appetizer! Spicy Crunchy Trout with Broccoli and roasted potatoes and a really nice side salad. My wife had the Three Seafood Salad with Salmon and Shrimp. I know there was another seafood item but she can’t remember. But the waitress was so professional and in these days…she was so good! I wish we’d gotten the Fried Brie appetizer! A little hard to Locate back in behind the other shops but they were also fun! Very good bread as well!!!!“

“After my last visit that was not the best, the owner Heather was apologetic and so gracious to ask me to give them another try. Glad I did! Today I had the Bacon Cheeseburger with Tater Tots and it was very good! The Burger was delicious, Tater Tots had some seasoning on them that made them extra flavorful, and the Sweet Tea is always Awesome there. Will definitely be back!!“

“Worst hamburger I think I’ve EVER eaten. We paid $42 for 2 bacon cheese burgers and a order of fries. Our hamburger were cooked to hockey pucks and had no flavor. Do NOT eat here if you’re in New Braunsfel! If you’re just looking for some drinks and music, this place has a descent atmosphere but otherwise stay away. It’s very pricey!“

“OMG 😱, first time eating here, I was so blown away by the amount of food. That food was meant for giants. When I tell you my stomach was satisfied by only eating the fried mushrooms which were only appetizers not the main course you wouldn't believe it. I've never had fried mushrooms and that was my first experience. Oh my goodness those fried mushrooms were WOW fiiiiiiirrrreee. I was just amazed. I could go on and on overall food is DELICIOUS 😋“

“The blue bacon burger has been a favorite of mine for a long time! I’ve eaten at many burger places, and it’s hard to think of anywhere that can top this one! Wait staff is always very friendly as well! Highly recommended!“

“We were searching for some food late, and found this place. I was a little worried at first because there were a lof of bikers there, and well, you've seen those movies, but the lady at the bar immediately put me at ease. She was so friendly and welcoming! We had no problems at all. The burgers we got were great! This is a fun local place that you should definitely check out. We'll be back for sure.“

“Stopped in for a few drinks and enjoyed their outdoor seating area. They were so nice as to go above and beyond by bringing us some vinegar and bug spray to make it more enjoyable. Great place! Indoor decor is very thoughtful and gives the place a unique look. Would definitely stop in again next time we're in New Braunfels area.“

“Breakfast was outstanding and large portions! Loved the huckleberry lemonade!! We will definitely be back.“

“Reserved space for granddaughter’s 15 BDay. The food is exceptional, customer service from Management to wait staff were wonderful in every way. All was sanitized. We had an amazing time! Thank you!“

“Was so hopeful, but the pizza was disappointing. My carry out oder of "The Big One" was a disaster. I wish I could have attached a photo. The pizza did not look anything like the photo. Crust was flat and without rise. No red onions present, kalamata olives were replaced with canned black olives, and is that fresh basil on the pizza in the photo? Unfortunate and very regretable.“

“One of my favorite go to places!“

“Saturday night, dinner time. Went with wife & kids. There were several other kids in the patio area. Crowd was largely parents in the 30 to mid-40 age range. Two dudes were at the inside bar wearing navy flight suits. ... I doubt they were actual navy (hair, unshaved, and really). Thought about playing the Righteous Brothers for them. Their 10y/o kid was also sporting a flight suit and playing with a volleyball. Maybe a costume contest, but still kind of annoying. Not the restaurant's fault.

We sat outside. The high temp for the day was 93, but the area was very comfortable thanks to some large trees in adjacent properties that shaded the area. My youngest played on the playset. My oldest opted to challenge a couple other kids to jenga. Cornhole, steel darts, and dancing are also available. A band was getting ready when we left.

We were hungry. So didn't wait for the server and just went to the bar. Food was fast, fairly priced, & portions were large. Fried mushrooms were bland, but my chili was good.

-- Ding on service is due to a few minor hiccups/delays. We got a brand new waitress that was still learning, and they may need to buy an additional frier. Minor.

We had a good time. We'll be back.“

“Just tried this place and man those wings slap! My bf had these blueberry wings, weird combination but dam those wings were so good! Sweet and savory. I had the lemon pepper bc its my favorite flavor. They were so crispy and seasoned very well. The waitress Zoe shout out to her, she did her job too, beyond nice and attentive. Definitely want to come back again“

“This is a fabulous establishment in New Braunfels! Braeven behind the bar is especially great! Makes your experience here fun and drinks are super cold!!“

“My family has been going to Montana Mike's for many years. the food is always delicious and reasonably priced. The service is always good, but today it was exceptional. Emily was attentive and personable. Always smiling. She checked on us often, but not too often. Just perfect. 10/10!“
