My wife and each the a hamburger and a cheeseburger with fries and onion rings. Everything was hot, fresh and tasty! Definitely a great stop along the way! Food was all gone!

Beautiful quaint restaurant down the street from our hotel. My Husband and I came in for breakfast although it was lunchtime :) we ordered the Frio breakfast and the pancakes were amazing! Peaceful environment, waitress was helpful in explaining the different breads they offered, even left with a beautiful penny souvenir with a cross cut out in the center that they gave me for free- a must eat at when in Leakey, Tx!

Server was friendly, kind and fast on her feet. Food was wonderful, in fact, I'm thinking that I may have eaten the Best BLT of my life! It was served on Texas toast. Did you take a gander of those incredible fries? Ooo, yum!
