It was a little busy due to the holiday but we enjoyed the old world like atmosphere bar tavern set up they have. We got a bottle of champagne to have mimosas with our meals. I got the delicious schnitzel Benedict. Loved it but next time I'll ask for the sauce on the side. I would have liked the traditional hollandaise. But it was a good twist. The potatoes were yummy. My husband had the schnitzel waffles. he ate the whole plate. So it's a winner. He said we can come back. So I again look forward to exploring more of the menu and having some beers. I mean pivo. Cheers.

The connected hotel is wonderful (there is a separate Yelp listing to review it). How amazing is it to stay at an operating brewery? The old-world European charm and flavor can be felt throughout. An elevated brewery pub, if you will. The decor definitely lends to that vibe. The food is really good and I dare to compare it to food we've had in Germany. I also love that they do a playful fusions of sorts with Texas & Czech foods. For example, the Czexan Potted Beer Cheese has a combo of sausages, peppers, meats, breads, and a cheese spread made with Czech beer. Perfect appetizer for two people and then some. My boyfriend loves the Texan Pocket Schnitzel. It's fried pork filled with jalapeños, ham, and cheese, served with mashed potatoes. I like the classic, authentic version of this. They do a fine job! I also love the Bavarian pretzel. It comes with a couple of different dipping sauces. Incredible beer pours that pair nicely with any of the meal options. We shared a flight that consisted of four different lagers. They also offer whiskey flights, brandy flights, wine flights, and cocktails. We didn't have dessert but I'm interested in the crème brûlée cheesecake next time 'round. Between staying at the hotel and eating at the restaurant, it was truly an experience that made me feel like we were back in Europe. Gotta hit up the beer spa next time too!

Better than most in the area but the sauce and cheese did not seem fresh. I will say the crust on the edges was crispy and has seasoning which was good, but the dough was thicker and chewier than I expected.

Sarah, Joey, Kalen, Taylor, and Tori are absolutely the best! The customer service and care about the customer experience. Whenever I visit they are all always so helpful and polite. They truly care about wine and the vineyard are incredible knowledgeable about the tasting notes, the different vintages they have, and all the other aspects of wine. I truly appreciate all the knowledge about the barrels, and all the steps of the process they all possess. I've learned so much attending the regular tastings, vertical tastings, and window club dinners. Oh to even bring up the wine club dinners! They always have such good chefs and their setups are always nice. I appreciate the staffing and the attention to detail they always provide. Incredible evenings and fantastic food. Always a treat and a core memory. I've ate at so several Michelin star restaurants and had pairing. Albeit not always at the same caliber, as something like Alinea. It is hands down the best, and that is not even including the pricing. It's an absolute steal. And nothing in comparison for the area of central Texas. What Valley Mills Vineyards has cultivated goes far beyond the bottle. It is, in the truest sense, a living experience: one where the terroir of genuine human connection is as carefully tended as the vines themselves. In a world increasingly defined by transactional encounters and manufactured hospitality, Valley Mills stands as a quiet and remarkable exception, a space where passion is not performed but practiced, where knowledge is not gatekept but generously shared, and where every visit feels less like a transaction and more like a homecoming. I have raised a glass in some of the most celebrated rooms in the country, and yet it is here, in the heart of central Texas, that I find myself most genuinely moved, not by spectacle, but by sincerity. That is the rarest vintage of all.

Some of their speciality lattes (like the Remember Me one fall) have been so delicious that I've braved the trek downtown, searching for a parking spot in the middle of my workday, just to get one as an afternoon pick-me-up. I also love the 1885 drink, which is Dr Pepper + espresso. It sounds crazy, but a Waco girl loves it. I will say, ever since the inside was re-painted as a weird, tentacle-esque, purple and orange mural, the ambiance has tanked. It used to feel like a peaceful, vibey spot, especially at night or during the holidays. Now the walls make my skin crawl a bit. Maybe some people love it--I usually hear the opposite But it's still worth going for the drinks!

I picked out a manicotti and the spouse picked meatballs. There were two of each in the refrigerated case. The girl working was SO pleasant & friendly, Reece. She related it would be 10-15 min for the chef to heat them up. Later she came out where we were seated and told us the chef (apparently at the restaurant next door?) said he wouldn't heat up the meals because they were frozen. They had to be in the refrig. case for 24 hrs. She offered a credit, but I declined because I had already tipped her $8.00. That would have been complicated. She offered to make us a sandwich from pastrami & salami, which she would grill. That sounded like a good idea. The sandwich was spectacular. They should add it to the menu. Honestly, I would give this place a one-star rating, but because of the positive attitude of the counter girl, I have to give her credit and raise it up to mid-level.

NOT HERE. This smoked Turkey was JUICY and had a good deep smoke flavor but not overwhelming. And it was piled with turkey. Not just two thin little pieces. It was a mouthful. I couldn't even finish it because I was stuffed. On my to go order I had a half a slab of ribs, smoked Turkey, sliced brisket, potato salad , beans, Mac and cheese, and BANANA PUDDING. The ribs were perfect. Smokey, didn't fall off the bone, but I want to be able to eat my rib without meat coming off in one bite. They were moist and very well seasoned and tender. Of course the turkey was perfect. The sliced brisket was just as good. Not all fatty pieces but lean, moist and just delicious. The mac and cheese was a little dry for my liking. I had to add some milk to it. But everyone has their version of Mac & cheese. I just prefer mine creamier and cheesier. The potato salad was good, as were the beans. Again, my opinion, the beans were a little sweeter than I am used to, but I would get them again. Now, the banana pudding was a MUST. YES, get banana pudding. I was really more impressed with this place than I anticipated I would be. But all of the meat was just so good. I WILL be back
