“ Always love this place. Great atmosphere. The staff is very helpful and polite/engaging. Thursday nights are fun with trivia, and the live music on the weekends is a fun draw. I always enjoy their chicken salad sandwich and the mushroom Swiss burger that they recently added to the menu is the bomb. my husband almost always gets the French dip sandwich and he loves it too. Oh... and don't forget to mention military service because they give you a complimentary cookie. There's a cute little boutique next door, and many weekends there is some farmers market or festival in town to browse too. ”
“ Took a bit to get my Moss sandwich but it sure was tasty! Seemed pretty busy for a Tuesday lunch! I guess the word is out - voted best sandwich for a reason! Their salads are the bomb too!! Lavender Marg was tasty but pricey too? Still would recommend and will come again! ”
“ Love it. Variety to choose from and delicious to eat. Western Dip is excellent. Chicken salad is spectacular. Joel Scott would like this place. ”
“ We took a drive to Blanco, TX for lunch, which is about 35-40 minutes from home. We ended up at a charming eatery that truly captures the essence of country living. It’s a simple, authentic Texas spot with a warm atmosphere. While the food was good, it didn’t quite reach the level of greatness I had hoped for. I tried the Philly cheesesteak, which didn’t compare to the original in Philly, PA, but I was curious to give it a shot. It was priced at around 16, which was a bit surprising, but I guess food prices have risen everywhere. The others in our group ordered burgers, and those were generous in size and tasty. One notable aspect was the absence of fries or chips on the menu. Instead, they offered sides like home fries with is more like breakfast potatoes, which felt a bit mismatched with a burger. So, we ended up spending close to 16 for a burger without the traditional side of fries or chips. While it was a bit disappointing, I tried to look at the bright side: at least I didn’t overindulge on carbs! Overall, I would consider dining there again, but wow—16 burgers and a Philly cheesesteak! It certainly gives you something to think about. ”
“ Loved it! We did lunch here. They had a good selection on the menu. The dining room was simple but maybe what you’d expect for a small town cafe. No table service. They served what looked like some great drinks. They had a large tap with a number of choice selections. They were eager to offer samples. We had a party of 4 but they had tables big enough for six. They also had some square tables where you could possibly push them together for a larger crowd. We had the bacon and bleu burger, the veggie sandwich, the western dip and the fish tacos. All were excellent! We had the pimento cheese with pita bread and both came out warm. If you order nothing else, order the pimento cheese. Simply delicious. Great stop overall, we will be back. ”
“ A German would say „typically American style“. Very tasty sandwiches, extremely delicious cheesecake and great friendly service. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. ”
“ In the midst of this small town sits the Redbud Cafe! There was indoor and outdoor seating! Since we had our dogs, we sat outdoors! We placed our order and, s it order was being prepared, the staff brought out cool water for the dogs! Great touch! I ordered the blanco burger and it was delicious! We also had the meatloaf sandwich and it was equally tasty! Service is quick n the meal is brought up to after yo order at the counter. Ingredients are fresh! We gladly went a second time and it was busy but equally delicious! ”
