Such a great spot in Boerne for soup and sandwiches. They are super fast even when the line is long. Rotating fresh soups each day, all different types of sandwiches from turkey to pastrami. Then the pies are southern sinful. The sweet tea is always brewing and they will make a table for you.

Partially-eaten Rancher Sandwich
Michael E.

I've been a huge fan of this place my entire life. We ate here a lot in high school! The sandwiches are so fresh and tasty ; I've been a Brainstorm guy most of my life, but the new Rancher sandwich they've added has taken over my top spot! Turkey, cheese, bacon, and their amazing ranch dressing on hot sourdough bread? Yes please! Don't sleel on the soups and desserts, either! The potato soup is so good, just like your grandma used to fix and the pies are outrageously good! The staff is always kind and friendly. I always pop my head in the kitchen to thank them for a mighty tasty meal. Be sure to check out the mural on the back wall and see what places you might recognize!

Line was halfway through the cafe, so I figured the place must be good. If the only complaint I have is waiting in line, then I have to say this place is definitely on my must return list. Love the sandwiches, pickle and chips. Pies looked amazing, but I talked myself out.

Not a bad place but the hype is greater than it should be. Don't get me wrong here, the food is above average and the service is always with a smile. And the pies, well they are fresh made and because of that, they are superior. The place has one major problem, it is severely outdated and awkwardly cramped with stuff stored all over the place. You need bread crumbs to leave a trail to the restroom because you might have to navigate multiple rooms and a haphazardly placed dangerous step to find it and your way back. The whole place is not really set up for disabled due to that large step in the middle of the walkway separating rooms. There is also just years of grime that is deeply embedded into the floor, the walls and just everywhere. Again don't get me wrong, it is clean because the staff stays on top of the daily cleaning but after years of renovation neglect the place is just tired. So if you have made it this far, Bumdoodlers offers above average menu with superior pies and great staff but has an atmosphere that transports me back to staying at my hoarder of a man, father-in-laws house. Like I want to be here because it is good food but at the same time I want to only stay as long as I have to.

Excellent place to grab lunch! The staff is super friendly and the food was really good! The selection of pies and goodies is pretty good!

Special of the day - turkey bacon ranch
Adrianna C.

We have been in twice now. They were very busy both times, but we didn't have to wait long. Service was very friendly. The sandwiches are very simple but yummy and incredibly affordable. I haven't been disappointed this far. We have tried a number of their pies and cheesecakes and have loved every one. Their turtle cheesecake and Elvis pie are our favorites in particular. Check their special of the day. I can't recall the exact name but when I came in recently on a Thursday they had a turkey bacon ranch which I really loved. We live near six flags but will happily drive here for a sandwich and slice of their incredible pie or cheesecake.

I LOVE bums! This is a great spot for a light lunch and have so many wonderful options! I prefer the gobbler sandwich with the thick bread! Always ask for two pickles! They have so many options to choose from. I've tried many of the sandwiches and the gobbler is my favorite. They are super busy once it hits at 12pm. They are great for customer service and speed of receiving my food. I personally love the chocolate pie with whip cream for dessert. I've never been disappointed when I go here and will continue to support this small business. Great food! Great service!

Brainstorm for me and a Gobbler w/ potato soup for the Infiniti guru across the table. Delicious! Love the staff here. The fun atmosphere makes it a Boerne classic.

My husband and I had brunch at Dienger Trading Co today, and we had a great experience!…read more Our server, Gabby, was attentive, friendly, and helpful. We ordered a vanilla latte, caramel macchiato, french toast with vanilla custard, and the Dienger Breakfast Sandwich. The food was absolutely fantastic! One of the best brunch spots we've eaten at. The atmosphere is beautiful and perfect to have a conversation without having to shout, too. In addition, Raymond stopped by our table (we presume he's the GM or owner). He chatted with us for several minutes. He checked to make sure we were having a good experience and told us about the history of Dienger Trading Co. He obviously cares a lot about the food quality and the business. We are so impressed and can't wait to go back! Next time we'll buy some treats from the bakery, and I'll take more pictures.

Mediocre food + racial profiling = will not return…read more An old white man (owner? FHM? Idk) came over to our table after we had finished eating. He addressed the table making recommendations that the women visit the boutique next door. When it came time to address the men, he looked directly at the head of the table where one of my Hispanic family members sat (who has dark skin) and asked "Do you understand English?" before encouraging the "men to come back and look at their upcoming gun and watch collection. Not even to mention the food. Chicken and waffles? More like chicken and fryer grease. When I pushed to the side when I was finished eating is what slid off the chicken immediately after I put my fork on it. Total of about four bites of chicken for this meal, majority of the mass on top of the waffles was just grease from the fryer. Can't say I would order this again.

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.

Alright, while we're talking wings, we need to talk about Sauced Wing Bar in Boerne…read more This place is legit. First, the wings are HUGE. They're clearly using jumbo wings, and you immediately notice the difference. Crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and they don't disappear under all the sauce. Speaking of sauce, I have no idea how many they have. 10? 15? 5,000? There are enough that every time I come in, I try something different--and I have yet to find one that disappoints. What really separates Sauced from a lot of wing places, though, is that they're actually doing the work. Everything is homemade and prepared from scratch in the kitchen, and you can taste it. The atmosphere is fantastic. Plenty of TVs, plenty of staff, and everyone seems to know exactly what they're supposed to be doing. The team is attentive, friendly and genuinely seems happy to be there. As someone who has spent a lot of years in restaurants, I notice that stuff. I've eaten a lot of wings. I make a pretty damn good wing myself. But when somebody does it better, you give them their flowers. Sauced Wing Bar in Boerne does wings better.

I was in Boerne and wanted a snack. It was a Monday and I saw that they have the $1 wings. I…read moredecided to check it out. It turned out that they don't... maybe they need to update their social media. I ordered the 10 wings with fries. The girl was confused regarding the $1 wings as much as I was. She was very kind though to go ask. I don't like my wings drenched in sauce and this is exactly how they made them. The wings were delicious! It is a sports bar. Even on a Monday the restaurant was full.

Though I've never been in for dinner, late lunch has impressed me. For 11.95, Luciano's offers a variety of dishes including a few 12 inch pizzas for the hungry diner. Pasta portions are extremely generous and my pasta has always been prepared al dente as it should be. If you come after 2, they offer 8 dollar glasses of a variety of quality wines for their long weekday happy hours. The setting is classy with comfortable seating both inside and out. Service has been impeccable. The only weak spot is dessert. Most are not homemade and several are quite pricy. But you may not need dessert after devouring your lunch! If you haven't yet eaten here, give them a shot. You'll be back!

Yelp gave us some good recommendations for Luciano so we decided to give him a try. It's a big enough restaurant that even on a Saturday night, we didn't have to wait for a table for four. I had the shrimp Luciano, which was really good. I loved that the shrimp were big and cooked perfectly. Someone had the cheese pizza and said it was an awesome pizza. My wife ordered the chicken Parmesan and loved it. They also are very generous with proportions so we all took half of a plate home for lunch the next day.
