Cheese board
Joshua A.

We stopped in, by chance, on a Sunday for brunch. It was f***ing fantastic. I know that's strongly worded, but it was that good. We started with the cheese board. Lots of great cheese and fruits. Then I got the avocado toast with fresh fruit, my husband got the schnitzel. We almost licked our plates clean. What an amazing way to spend a Sunday morning. We will be back.

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!

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.

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!

Farmer's Board
Maitina M.

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.

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

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.

Small portions for expensive prices. You will spend more than you want for small portions. Expect this!

Hungry Horse Restaurant - Chicken Fried Steak

At a nearby antiques mall we asked for a lunch recommendation. Hungry Horse was suggested by all 3…read morewe asked. We found it easily, good parking onsite and nearby. The menu is on the wall and ordering at the counter. There are yummy looking pies in the case. We were happy to see liver and onions with 3 sides. It also came with an incredibly tasty muffin, which we were told was a type of bran muffin. The liver was very thinly sliced and nicely grilled. Sides were generous. We got drinks and my unsweet tea was nicely brewed, which in Texas is expected. Counter staff was friendly and service was quick. The environs are in serious need of an upgrade, which I doubt will happen to keep the prices low. As it is our shared meal and two drinks was about $25. We were very pleased with our meal, the restrooms were clean and easy access, and overall other than extremely dated decor this eatery is a Boerne classic!

I've been coming to Hungry Horse for about 8 years or so. I like it just fine if you are in the…read moremood for some comfort food. Portions are good and getting the large portion may mean you can share with partner. Chicken fried steak is good, mashed potatoes are the staple of my choice. The other day my husband and I were there and as usual, it was busy. The staff is super friendly! The food comes out in the expected amount of time to make you feel like it was made just for you, but not from scratch, lol. I was disappointed in the mac n'cheese. It was extremely bland. And the corn was definitely from a can, not a bit of salt or butter. We shared a chopped sirloin and it was good. On other visits I can say I have enjoyed the chicken tender salad and fried catfish but really the chicken fried steak or chicken are my GO TO choices. I will say, if the owner is reading this...I know you are super busy, but your restaurant needs a good cleaning and refresh. It's kinda worn out. The chairs aren't comfortable. The booths need to be scrubbed, even the walls adjoining to the booths are dirty. Maybe your bussers clean the table tops great after each use, but the surrounding area is kinda gross. I am not saying I won't be back, or even that people shouldn't give it a try, just setting expectations and hoping that the owners make some time to get back to quality on every plate and at every table.

Casual dining
Takes reservations

On a sunny Mother's Day morning, myself and 3 family members enjoyed a wonderful dining experience…read moreat Sunny's! Almost a month and a half beforehand, I made reservations online, which was quick and easy. For the occasion, they offered a special menu to help streamline ordering. The entrees were $28 and included either a mimosa or specialty drink. My mom and aunt both ordered the Southern Hospitality, which came with eggs, shredded hashbrowns, bacon, sausage, toast, and berry compote. My aunt paired hers with a mimosa while my mom chose a drip coffee. My little cousin had the mini stack pancakes topped with fresh berries and whipped cream. I was looking for a lower-carb option, so although I considered the omelette, most of the included ingredients were not to my liking. Instead, I ordered 2 eggs with added tomato and a side of hollandaise sauce. For my drink, I chose the Sunnycito coffee. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals! The presentation of each dish was beautifully curated. I really enjoyed my food overall, though I was not particularly fond of the hollandaise sauce. The flavor was not very enticing to me, and the consistency was a bit too thick. However, the Sunnycito coffee was absolutely superb! I almost ordered another one to-go. It was a beautifully blended, smooth, rich concoction inspired by a café con leche, or "cafecito", a Cuban-style coffee. When I looked over their regular menu beforehand, the drinks were labeled as either hot or iced, and I had only seen the Sunnycito listed hot, which is how it is traditionally prepared. Our wonderful waitress kindly asked if I would prefer it iced, and since I was in the mood for something cold, I happily agreed. I highly recommend this drink! They also add a hint of orange zest, which was such a unique touch and something I had never encountered before in a coffee. Despite how busy the restaurant was, everything seemed to run very smoothly. The staff remained attentive to everyone's needs, and our water glasses were never empty. I regret forgetting our waitress's name, but she was personable, sweet, and attentive throughout the entire experience. Altogether, it made for a very special and memorable Mother's Day celebration. I can't wait to return!

Parking is adequate, there's parking on the street and on the side of the business. Walking in, we…read morewere greeted immediately but the entry is on the smaller side. One oddity is there is a ramp leading to a door, but apparently that is not the entrance, at least according to the sign on the door. The entrance has stairs you need to ascend. So much for wheelchair and mobility issue friendly. We were seated quickly. Overall impressions are its clean, and normal restaurant chatter. There is seating inside, as well as outside, and apparently there is an upstairs seating area as well. Seating inside is close together, so this is not the place for conversation that you don't want others to hear. Waited quite a while without any acknowledgment of any kind, no drink order taken, nothing. After our waitress arrived, our drink orders were taken. At this point, since we still haven't received our drinks, I'm going to break from normal and mention the terrible service. I would normally wait until the end but this deserves mentioning. A different waitress approached and asked about our drinks. After another wait, our drinks arrived. Correction, the 2 coffees arrived. Not the Diet Pepsi that was ordered. On the plus side, my wife and daughter rated the coffees a 4.5 and 4, respectively. They did mention they were slightly less happy with the sizes. We finally placed our food order. Upon arrival, the food, fortunately, was excellent. My wife and daughter both rated the crepes 5 out of 5. I would rate the omelette 4.5-4.75. We are hoping the service was a fluke, because we had read good things about Sunny's, and their overall ratings are high. I can say this was one of the worst services I've experienced in quite some time, including fast food establishments. We will try again, and hopefully the service is better. So take from this what you will: Based on food and cost, I would rate Sunny's a 4.25. Factor in the service and I would rate it a 2.5, and wouldn't return. Hopefully our next experience is better.
