Outside Life Size PostCard Card
Sharrie C.

Start w the appetizer charcuterie board!!! The Axis Burger is always perfect w homemade fries. Delightful staff, ambience is warm & inviting. The dress code is casual. Great photo opportunity of a Life Size PostCard at entrance!

Baked Salami Chips w/ Jalapeño Dip

This restaurant is a MUST if you're in town. We always stop here when we are up in Boerne, they have the perfect portions for sharing if you wish. We are always seated quickly and service is on point every time. You truly cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. I would definitely double check their hours before heading out, they operate different hours than most places.

Little nook

So I have eaten brunch here a number of times with friends over several years at 259 Brantley's Bistro. I've tried a bunch of items off the brunch menu over the years and have enjoyed them all. This time I went big as it is quite a full plate and one I could not finish. But had the leftovers for lunch the following day. The wild boar schnitzel was nice and crisp with no grease taste to it. The bacon was delicious and the eggs were perfect...not too hard, not toò runny. The potatoes added a nice bite to the meal. The tiny green beans were nice but I didn't get an almondine flavor. But that might be me not the dish. As I have been on antibiotics. All in all well worth the cost of the meal. In fact I had plans to stop at another place for dessert but I was just too full. Now I ordered a frozen margarita for the first time there... I got a small. It was a very generous pour. In fact I drank little of it as I knew I was driving back to San Antono. Again unusual for me but you might want to take a driver when you try it the first time. We had a group of about 16 and the nook was set aside for us. We could not have had better service...two waitstaff, one for each side of the room. Our waitresses was very nice. Patient with people trying to decide what to eat. So many goodies to chose from, never rushing anyone, answering questions with a smile. My long table seemed very satisfied with their meals. Crab cakes, three sets of eggs benedict, salad with added shrimp, another wild boar plate and I missed one or two. The consensus of the bottom of the table was you had to try the pitcher of fresh berry lemonade and it did look wonderful! It is a bit of a drive from my part of San Antonio but when not rushing I used to take Babcock to Boerne Stage Rd with turns into Scenic loop rd and eventually crosses I10. Which was a nice drive...I'm afraid it might be built up with houses now.

Farmer's Board

My girlfriend and I decided to grab lunch at Brantley's Bistro on a Saturday. Our intention was to dine inside, only to find out that their indoor dining was closed but had the outdoor section open. Their outdoor area is heavily shaded and cooled down with lots of fans. We really enjoyed it. We ordered our drinks and food at the bar. We grabbed our drinks, and our board got to our table within minutes and soon after, our salads were served. We enjoyed everything we ordered from the Farmer's Board to their Greek and House Salads. I can only imagine how fun this place is when there's live music to accompany dinner and drinks. We noticed other tables ordered loaded potato chips and lamb sliders. They seemed to be a popular choice. Perhaps when I come back, I may just give them a try.

Really only came here tonight to see if the vibe was good and try out a new spot, and I was not disappointed! Chill little bar outside where there's live music (Saturday @9pm) and a lot of space to drink and relax! Service was really good and our drinks were ready really fast! We didn't order any food, but when we saw some pass by it all looked great! The cover band that was playing was not the best, but really good, and gave the crowd a good time with classics to sing along to! Definitely recommend if you want to have a nice time out in Boerne!

Crab cake Benedict
Kimberly K.

It was an unseasonably warm winter day so we decided to have brunch outside and Brantley's Bistro fit the bill. What a beautiful brunch spot! The normal brunch menu is already extensive but also features an additional daily special menu. Brantley's is beer and wine only so no cocktails. We each started with a cup of tomato bisque. It had a nice texture and was good but maybe needed a tad more flavor? Next up was the crab cake Benedict with roasted fingerling potatoes and a Hill Country Axis burger with sea salt fries. The axis burger was juicy and cooked to my husbands liking (medium). Crab cakes held together well and didn't fall apart. Delicious flavor. The eggs were poached to perfection while still retaining that juicy yolk without being overly runny. Service was quick and pleasant. We enjoyed our meals while sipping a chocolate stout and cider. With such an extensive menu, Brantley's Bistro is definitely worthy of a repeat visit!

Pecan Old Fashion & Bloody Mary

This place is so cute, love the vibe! The inside is fairly small which is fine because they have a really cool outdoor area with a full bar. The music was on point and perfect for a chill Sunday. The crab cakes app was 10/10! Highly recommend! Also, highly recommend the Avocado Toast for brunch! Very tasty! If you're in town I def recommend this place!

Great high quality food!! Axis burger was especially good around here. The fact that they source from these farms says a lot about the attention to detail. Some of the best farms in central/south tx. True farm to table ish here

Dining room ans bar area

Showed up here again to get. The best Axis burgers I have ever had. They were still delicious as before. There were 4 in our party and we were able to sit immediately. It was early evening but always best to call and make reservations. Service was great and this old south restaurant. Behind the bistro they have live music on weekends.

Outsider seating

Best advice if you visit Bourne. Eat first. Very few eateries As for this place, Awful experience. After long wait to be seated, We waited even longer to get our food. They ran out of food, fries were one. There is indoor and outdoor seating available After waiting and observing, Tables around us got served before us even though we were there first. Think our server had too much to handle Limited one page menu. Interesting. Not cheap but this is a tourist trap so should have known. Portions are ok. However don't get the yogurt parfait unless you only want fruit. Seriously like 2 tablespoons of yogurt and when we asked for more, they gave us another 2 tablespoons, if even All a la carte. Never got our sweet potato fries till end of meal, waited, asked, came fresh but too late. We already had been there for almost 2 hrs . Chips homemade but are thick and hard. Taco shrimp was cold, watery, filled with bitter tasteless cole slaw. The shrimp smelled bad, but I was starving at this point and asked for ketchup to wash it down . Btw they don't have bbq sauce tho they have pulled pork sandwiches Staff were nice but need to help each other out more. All four of us spent around $75 for lunch. Last gripe, restrooms are outside and only one person room. It was continuously busy and even the guys had to wait! I returned four times and still no relief If you gotta go, Drive down to Walgreens, the other stores there are no help

Gone is the…read morewine bar--that space is now a separately owned retail store and the front corner space (formerly "Jac's") is now a full fledged bar that opens into a slightly truncated restaurant space. While I find the new decor questionable, with some interesting color and flooring choices, the bar is still a bit unfinished and lackluster. The lighting is weak and underlit, although the wood paneling is gorgeous. Lot of room to take it to the next level which it needs if it is to succeed as a high-end bar. I'm sure during the soft opening they'll sort it out but our drinks were a bit high priced, the barware cheap and unattractive considering the $18 martini cost, and the cocktails were watered down and short-poured. Just not very good. Hospitality was eager, though. On the other hand, as a 24 year Boerne resident who has been a patron since 2006, the food in the Grille was as good as I've experienced in a LONG time. The Thursday smoked Prime Rib special was spectacular and the sides were up to the challenge along with a generous and excellent Caesar salad easily split by two. I'm so happy to see new beginnings here, and will revisit soon. I wish the updated endeavor every success!

They were very friendly and knowledgeable about the menus. I had the original Boerne burger, my friend had a soup and sandwich. The service there was outstanding. The professionalism and friendliness of the staff are commendable. The grill interior is a small style country city Grill. It is very comfortable and pleasant. The food was brought out, and it was presented in a very acceptable manner. The quality and the amount of food is definitely outstanding. It tasted really good. The ambience in the place is very friendly and while we were, it was not a noisy place. It is a very affordable restaurant. I highly encourage you to go there and try their many various dishes. Is an old establishment and well thought of by the locals. With all this being said, I would recommend this place definitely. However, the restroom could use some major attendance. Still even with this last statement, I would recommend this place for your dining experience.

We dined in around 8:45PM on a Friday night. We were quickly seated and a server greeted us…read moreimmediately. I wanted a cider, but served informed us that they were sold out. My date wanted the beer cheese with his pretzel, but served informed us that they were also sold out. Bummer! I did feel a little rushed, the server check on us frequently (mostly to take our order) but failed to offer drink refills or another round. It was my first time here, so I was unsure what I wanted to eat. I decided on the Chargrilled Chicken and it was good! I enjoyed the grilled veggies and wild rice that it was served with. I wish it came with a sauce! There was live music it seemed to end around 9PM, but that was nice to enjoy on the patio. I recently moved to Boerne, I'd love to give this place another shot... maybe I'll come earlier in the day to reduce the risk of items being sold out for the day...

The food was ok, I got the Rueben with fries and my husband got the fish and chips, which he said were good and very light, the tartar was house made and unique. The seating was very tight, back to back with the table next to you and made it a bit uncomfortable and unable to stretch out. There was a live band, the music was nice and not too loud so you could still have a conversation. My husband ordered a beer, I don't know know which one, but he said it was very good. I wouldn't seek this place out again but it was ok for the one time.
