There was one a few months ago that had a little oil spritz on top that was my must have for its entire time on the menu. The coffee is fab. I do miss the sweater weather latte from last year, but the house made syrups and the coffee itself are really great so I can't complain. It's easy going during the day, it's more festive at night, but we love it for both vibes. The markets they host are also really lovely, great food items and pastries, etc. Solid food truck rotation, although I am missing the lamb barbacoa mini tacos now that pueblo viejo is gone and mil amores has taken over as the taco staple.

UPDATED REVIEW It's…read morebeen a few years since my last review for the Progress Coffee location in Buda. Now that the foundation has settled, let's dive in: SERVICE: The baristas have gotten much better (or were let go and replaced) and are much more competent than the first few months. FOOD: While they still don't offer food except for light local pastries, the food truck vendors have changed and NOT in a good way. I always come for my coffee and breakfast taco, but the recent change has been a huge let down (cash/zelle/venmo ONLY, inconsistent hours). Progress needs to monitor their food trucks better and revisit those contracts PARKING: Now that Progress has subleased a portion of their building to an insurance agent, the alternate lot is reserved for insurance patrons only. Parking is already frustrating to begin with. Open the grass lot and expand parking!! COFFEE: Once again, the signature coffees are just not for me... they're too sweet or light. Luckily, they're Matcha Lattes have been subbing in.

For one thing, its ambience is a cut above other growler bars I've been to. It's more like a bar with great selection of beer, a host of regulars, and inviting interior. Daily specials are posted behind the bar. Two TVs for your viewing pleasure. Plenty of seating given its relatively small size. And a great selection of local and regional beers. But what really sold me was that as we walked through the door the bartender was carrying a bowl of water for my small dog to one of the tables. Along with a dog biscuit. Food? Other than dog biscuits I'm not sure. I didn't notice any snacks available but I didn't really look. There is a small assortment of soft drinks. But what will really bring me back next time I'm in town is the hospitality the bartender show to my small dog. Jax and I thank you.

I've wanted to come to Shady Llama for years, and we finally made it out yesterday. I am so…read moredisappointed in myself for not coming all the time before this, because Shady Llama is EXCELLENT! First, the staff members are very friendly and know everything there is to know about their available wine and brews. I love that almost all (if not all) are local sips - it's really great to see all of these different places in Wimberley/Dripping Springs/Spicewood support each other. Just another reason why I love Hill Country! When I saw Lazarus Rice Lager and St. Elmo, my gluten free heart skipped a beat, because both of those brews have been treated with the enzyme that makes the brews (normally) OK for those who are gluten sensitive but not for those with celiacs. I don't miss beer, but those two brews are too delicious to pass up when I see them on tap! We also tried the Spicewood wine flight, which was one of the best wine flights I've ever had, and I cannot wait to go buy bottles of each to bring home. All 3 were delicious, crisp, robust, and beautifully paired with each other in the flight. The views were beautiful. Beautiful is honestly an understatement. I love that so much of this area is still undeveloped. I'm sure it was less developed even 5 years ago, but the views from Shady Llama while sitting in a wooden porch Adirondack chair sipping some wine is perfection. I can only imagine how beautiful it is at sunset. I do wish they had a couple more tables by those chairs so I can rest my drink, but it's uneven and probably hard to do so, so I happily will sit with my brew in hand and relax. There's also plenty of seating but not overly crowded with chairs and benches which is love, and I loved the hammocks too! This place is GREAT for families. Playgrounds, slides, almost all kids areas gated so you don't have to worry about them running into the woods with critters. Fun for all ages, and they're just far enough from the seating to minimize the noise that this kiddos love to make! I loved the llamas. Some of them were so spicy and truly just wanted the food, and I feel that. No pets, just food, and I applaud it. Some of them would let you pet them, and the personalities on some of them were REAL, but give them some food and they may let you take a picture. So much fun having them there! Add on some delicious brisket in the back (I am so sad I missed the burnt ends), and all in all, the Shady Llama is GREAT! You are also able to bring outside food, but no outside beverages! Great place and cannot wait to come back!

Okay, so my photos are absolutely embarrassing but that is a testament to how incredible these…read moreappetizers truly were. I couldn't wait to dive in! My friend and I saw a movie at EVO and wanted a place to dissect it so I found this spot on here and wallah! I'm so glad I did. Said friend stated she was simply in the mood for appetizers and drinks so this place hit the spot--we got an order of garlic knots and fried zucchini. Both of these appetizers were insanely delicious and the marinara is to live for. I was able to navigate the menu as a sober, dairy-free individual and that made me super happy. Financially, this place is a total nightmare but I don't think I will take that into consideration since I didn't try their pizza. It was odd to see how expensive a pie was and how close to 30-40 bucks you could get with a single order of one item. However, I have to give them the biggest kudos for having Michelob Ultra Zero and Best Day Brewing as non alcoholic options. The Best Day was delicious and I ordered three! Now to the highlight of the night: the food runners. It's a thankless job to stand around and observe diners as they request mundane stuff like extra ranch or marinara, etc. But there was one standout of the three we interacted with and that was Sean. The guy was insanely alert, prompt and kind. His relaxed manner made me want to continue to order more off the menu (in fact my friend flagged him down so that she could order a pie to go)! He was accurate with his estimated time of the pizza being done and my favorite thing he did for me was allow me to purchase two beer cans and pour them in cold glasses as I finished them. Sean went above and beyond and I have to recognize that! Check this place out for sure -- as there is a coupon for $10 off your next order of $30, it shows the true markup for this restaurant. Yet, it's clean and the patrons are kind and knowledgeable. I live 30 minutes away but I will definitely be back. I hope Sean is there to take care of me again!

The only issue I had was a random customer,, maybe a regular,, felt in titled and felt like he ran the place, try's to intimidate new comers by staring at you from the other side of the bar like a weirdo, very uncomfortable, seems like that's his thing, long story short , we decided to leave he followed behind like he was gonna do something, and instinctively I turned around and told him you want this smoke let's rock n roll , but he caught that pussy and said he needed to use the restroom.

The Railhouse is a bar located in Kyle, TX that is the PERFECT place to check out because it…read moredoesn't cater to just ONE specific group of customers ie: country music crowd, hip-hop crowd, sports bar crowd, ect., ect. Instead, it caters to ALL of these customers, depending on the day of the week - check out the events calendar on their website. I definitely can see why The Railhouse is popular to so many people because these are just some of the February 2025 events listed on their calendar - * Kyle Karaoke * Ladies Night w/ Lady Versus * Super-bowl Watch Party w/ DJ 2DQ & Guest DJs * Thunderstruck: America's AC/DC Tribute Band * Crawfish Boil hosted by Texas Crab Company * Trivia Tuesdays * Viva La Fiesta * Friday Night Live with Dj 2DQ (my FAVORITE night! ) The Railhouse on a Friday night is where I go when I'm in the mood to "shake what my mama gave me" (IYKYK ;) because you are GUARANTEED to have a FUN time w/ DJ 2DQ, as the dj and him playing all the favorite old school, hip-hop, & R&B music! Because "sharing is definitely caring", here are a few more helpful tidbits & reasons why The Railhouse deserves this 5-star review: --- parking situation: huge private parking lot w/ plenty of parking spaces -- no cover charge on Fridays (not sure about any other days since I've only visited on a Friday) --- reasonably priced alcohol drinks! Who doesn't love getting to sip on a budget?! (Don't forget to show some love to your bartender :) -- very clean restrooms! Very much appreciated! -- plenty of seating both indoors and outside.
