“Wow. Stumbled upon this place with a random “coffee” Google search while at the nearby state park and was not disappointed!! Cozy little cafe, food was AMAZING, coffee was fresh and flavorful….wow. Made a great camping trip that much better!”
“We are visiting Texas while on vacation and stopped in at this place and its is awesome. My wife and I had came in 45 minutes before they cosed.The staff was super chill. Some of the best tasting whiskey,moonshine and rum. We both got the flight of 4 and loved it. We went home with bottle of peach moonshine. But the pirates brew rum is where it's at.”
“Very great food! Perfect small town, small business burger joint. Food matches its price with big burgers that taste great. They also have other items like pizzas if you're not in the mood for a burger. If you're in the area I recommend coming here over any corporate fast food joint.”
“The lobster bisque is worth the hour drive from Dallas. It’s better than Pappas Brothers (my previous gold standard)! The bruschetta is the best I’ve ever had. The flatbreads are wonderful, and a glass of their Saturn Missile red wine is soulful and perfect. I’m shocked and delighted to find an experience this good in a small town. Must try!”
“Listen, this gas station is sketchy as fuq and it's in Bassett hood foo but, Hot damn they make some fire ars Chicken. Even the meth Headz over there will tell you that the chicken is Crack.”
“Last week was the first time we visited this excellent restaurant. But It is obviously not the last time. We had great time with the attentive service, with the finest meal and wine and with the modest price. We will surely return there soon.”
“I eat here all the time. Today we only had a short lunch at work and I came in with a pocket-full of orders from my coworkers shortly after Hippo opened their doors. The staff was awesome! They completed the orders quickly and with military precision asking to make sure everything was correct.They truly shined today”
“Staying here in Gville with my son a few days. Ystrdy tried Starbuck’s-what a joke! A 1/2 filled cup of cappuccino at a ridiculous price(& it was very weak). This morning Sweet Jayne’s was my pick & WHAT a difference! Cappuccino actually had flavor & my breakfast biscuit was soft & warm. I will be back❤️”
“Terrific place. If you live close by or are just passing through, it’s worth it. We sat at the bar (bartender was Tommye and she was great!) - great atmosphere. Had burgers - the Hellfire is amazing (aka Hellraiser). Kroots Lime Lite was a great drink as well. Nice getting something a little different. Lots to choose from and worth the stop, trust me! Can’t wait to come back.”
“portions are kind of small but all the food here is delicious they have sauces and chips and fudge and all sorts of stuff i love this place I always stop by when I'm in town”
“Great spot for breakfast and lunch! Little gem in downtown Gainesville with great views of the historic courthouse. Our server Jean was wonderful. She got every detail exactly right and made us feel welcome. Food is genuine homemade!”
“My family went in and picked out some desert . Banana cheesecake and a pumpkin loaf both were delicious can’t wait to go back . I’d definitely recommend stopping by !”
“This is taco shop is awesome. I’ve had my share of authentic Mexican food and this place is up there. Highly recommend stopping by for your Mexican food craving if you’re in the Gainesville area.”
“Everything about Sarah’s is incredible! The decor is perfect for his old building, the staff is friendly and attentive, and the food is out of this world. It’s the best burger I have ever eaten! If you are ever in Gainesville, stopping at Sarah’s is a must!”
“Food is a bit overseasoned but you do get all you can eat sides. Came on a day with their staff periodically singing and dancing and still decently to great service. Been a long time since I was here but the signs and decorations + birthday chicken hat and dance = great atmosphere.”
“Driving from the casino in OK back home in TX we were looking for a place to eat that served home cooked meals. We hit a home run with this find!! The entire staff was super friendly. Although it was a Sunday afternoon, we were seating soon after coming in. The food was just what we were looking for. The portions are a really good size & delicious! Everyone around us was ordering deserts. We wished we had some room because the selection was a good one. Thank you to Laura for providing us excellent service. We will be coming back for sure! This may become a regular stop when we come out this way to play.Parking: Plenty of parking in the front, side, and around the back.”
“Easily 5 stars. The Patio Downtown takes pride in their food! Ricky absolutely kills it in the kitchen and makes everything homemade. I suggest trying the salsa, wings, and pizza. I love food and this is seriously great food. Laura handles the front of the house flawlessly and provides excellent service. If you pass through or live in Gainesville the Patio Downtown should be your priority. Great job you two and great restaurant!”
“This place has been the most consistent of the places I’ve been to in Gainesville for a Mexican breakfast. I had huevos à la Mexicana. It was good. The beans were good. The tortillas were hot. The salsa was spicy I left satisfied.”
“This is my favorite bar in Sanger, and probably in all of Texas. It’s a great atmosphere any time of day or night. Great specials every day. Amazing service and the staff are amazing and lovely. I love the new Belts that say Revival- very cute and great advertising. Drinks are great they have some very delicious holiday inspired cocktails and shots- cookie Christmas shot was a hit. The Raspberry Lemonade low sugar cocktail was very tasty and keep my blood sugar in a good range while enjoying a very tasty adult drink.”
“This restaurant served as the perfect setting for dinner after a great night with my daughter! They were so friendly and down to earth - they took a special night and made it even more memorable! On top of that, the pizza is AWESOME!”
“Somebody needs to put me on pastry restriction! I love everything here. The strudel, fried pies, kolaches, bread and other treats. My granddaughter likes the chocolate fried pies. They are good but I like the Apple strudel and fruit fried pies.Parking: Plenty of parking. If you are getting back on I35, it’s easier to stay in the service road, go down through the light, stay on the service road to enter I35 that way. The construction makes it difficult to enter right there by Rumpy’s and it’s a blind merge.Kid-friendliness: A little souvenir area with fun stuff for kids. I’m going to get a couple of those rubber squawking chickens next time I’m in.”
“Stopped on way back from Winstar.Had the 3 meat plate.Enough for wife me to eat later in the day at home.Serious bbq, tender and flavorful.Beans were amazing as well.This is a Must-Stop on future trips.”
“I eat at the pub once a week or so for lunch. They have a great lunch special. Salad, crackers, drink, main dish and 2 sides for around $7.00. Service is always great. Servers are nice and so is the manager. I am mainly there during the day but I stopped in there one evening with some co-workers and had a few beers. The evening staff was great also. Beer on tap was real cold. I don't think I had an empty glass the whole time I was there. The waitress had a new beer on the table before I emptied the one I was on. Oh and the atmosphere is nice too. They keep it very clean and there are tons of pictures on the walls from Gainesville back in the dark ages and there are a few shoulder mounts of big long horns.**Follow up review** Just went to Main Street Pub with my family, 13 years after writing my review above. We had Ribeye, it was excellent! Server was sweet and we had a real nice afternoon there. I did notice the lunch special went up in price since my previous review, it’s about $11 now not too bad.Parking: New parking lot across the street, lots of spaces available.”
“We had a FANTASTIC experience at Combs Coffee. The owner talked passionately about his trade, and made us the best coffee we have ever tasted. We will be visiting often!!”
“This place blew me away, family came and had breakfast at this spot and it was amazing. The prices were spot on and the amount of food and the quality you get can't be best. Definitely my go to breakfast spot in Sanger.”
“I absolutely love this bar! All staff are really great and the cowboy bites are fantastic., must try! They have decent pool tables with darts and shuffle board, so many tv’s as well for watching all the best sports. Don’t pass this bar when visiting Gainesville.”
“Incredible organic health food store. Home cooked lunch, organic coffee, delicious shakes and home made cakes.The owners are so knowledgeable about health AND have a bookstore. Go visit!”
“I was surprised we had been in the area now for 4 years and this was our first time and it was time there . The food was great and the service was on point. Save room if you can as the desert was worth it. For those of you who have small appetites start with the desert!!!”
“We were in town for a show at the casino, we stayed at a motel about a mile from this bbq spot. My goal was to find a hole in the wall BBQ place those are the best ones that have BBQ! I am not a fan of big Corp food industries. I love to support a true hard working American. I'm so glad Google recommended this guy, I read all his reviews and i said this is where I am going to go. Boy boy I do not regret this decision! This is by the best BBQ I have ever had! I live an hr and 43 minutes from jazs bbq and there is not anything good bbq place within in those miles!”
“My other favorite Mexican joint is also inside a gas station so I may be biased ?. Honestly stumbled across this place on a road trip and imagined average tex-mex. NO! THIS IS BY NO MEANS AVERAGE.This place has all the best qualities of a hole in the wall authentic restaurant shoved into a gas station with a simple menu done PERFECT.I only had the tacos, beans, rice and churro. Based on how good these were though, I would be SHOCKED if anything they offer was subpar.They have some of the best meat I've ever had in a taco. Fresh off the grill , with a good amount of char on every piece. Onion, herbs , and lime on the side in a simple corn tortilla and the fresh fried churro? !! They do the simple stuff and just hit it out of the park. This is universal comfort food!”
