“This spot is great for a weekend staycation - a truly hidden local gem. The food and service at the Pine Street Cafe was impeccable, and is an added bonus to have onsite when you stay here - and you get breakfast for 2 included with your booking. The Victorian Tulip mini house has been my favorite getaway for a few years now. I love the giant claw foot bath tub and always look forward to a relaxing bubble bath when I stay. It was the perfect spot for a romantic Valentine weekend.“

Coya, our only waitress, didn’t bat an eye. She was amazing and worked extremely hard to take care of all of us. Thank you, your kindness made all the difference in the world at that moment.“

“I highly recommend this Café. I ordered to go as I’m leaving state after breakfast, but the girl that helped me carry my drinks out was super sweet. Not being from Texas I was curious about everything on the land and she was very informative (I should’ve gotten her name). I ordered the Sycamore 2s which was 2 pancakes (choice of 1/2 waffle or 2 slices French toast), 2 eggs, and 2 pieces of bacon (choice of sausage also). I got my son an order of French toast, and a friend the brunch burger. Everything was AMAZING. The server mentioned Mondays they have a mimosa special (she told me exactly but I forget it). I like over medium eggs and this is the first place I’ve been that’s gotten my eggs PERFECT the first time around. It’s an adorable little café and there’s a wedding venue in the back. I highly recommend trying their food if you haven’t before. I took photos but it won’t let me add them to my review.“

“I recommend this place! The food looks just like the photo and the food is delicious! The service is perfect, they don't take long to bring the food, obviously at night, they do take a little while but it's because a lot of people go, but at lunch and breakfast they don't take long. I recommend this place, it's perfect for birthdays, weddings, dinners and food. It's delicious.??

Dietary restrictions: Lots of vegetables and the food is perfect for those who want to diet, come to this place it's perfect!“

“If i gave all 5 stars, why are you asking me to redo my review google? Because here i am...updating it with 1 less star on each.
Chicken fried steak was very bland today.
Mac and cheese has been watery with no flavor for last 2 visits.
Corn was even blah! How do you blah up corn?
The little lady that got us our drinks was very sweet and hard working that's why I'm just knocking off 1 star for service. But the waitress...as long as yours not asking her for assistance with something, she might be ok. But I feel like she would spit in my food for wanting to exchange something out. She's really not the warm and friendly type of waitress...I guess a job is a job. I get it...but dang Gina!“
