For my wife's birthday, she wanted to go to Camp Verde restaurant for brunch/breakfast. We took her brother and his wife, who have, miraculously not been to Camp Verde compound even after passing it by on their way to Bandera on many of their trips to the area. Anyway, it was a glorious day after 3 days of good soaking rain, which we badly needed in the hill country. The food has always been top notch grade here. The service is very efficient and professional. As for the ambience, the inside is bright and well lighted but to be impressed, you have to go outside. Since it was a glorious day of bright sunshine, coolish temperature and a very friendly breeze blowing, we had a time walking around the area. The surrounding area was lush and very green after the few days of rain! We had a lovely time taking pictures. My brother in law was very surprised about the camel story behind Camp Verde. Camels were used as experimental animals to carry provisions in the 1850's. They were stationed in this area. Unfortunately, the experiment failed because the soldiers hated the camels, who had a reportedly nasty disposition and soldiers ended up with motion sickness because of the animal's unusual walking gait. If you want to visit the area, now is a good time before the summer heat gets here. FYI, if you like Christmas, the gift shop here gets an early start in October! If you like Christmas decorations like my wife, come here and shop. They really fill up the gift shop with goodies! read more

I've been to the Camp Verde General Store a couple of times and had been very much looking forward to trying the restaurant. Well, my husband and I finally came today. WOW!!! What an amazing experience. The hostesses were super nice and welcoming. Our server, Shannon, was top-freaken-notch! And the chef was as professional as he was nice. The food was incredible! The best truffle fries I have ever had, and I've had quite a few variations. The sandwiches were delicious and my husband said it was the best split pea soup he's ever had. Definitely our favorite eatery! Side note, the buildings and grounds are breathtaking. We will be coming back. I will also be bringing my daughter and grandson when they come for a visit in April. read more

We ate here last Sunday and had great food and superior service by Starr. Everything was delicious and well prepared. I had the grilled redfish and my wife had the schnitzel. We enjoyed ourselves very much. read more

Food was amazing. Staff was fantastic. Love the shop. You can find a lot of unique things.

Service was a tad bit slow but good. Food was good. The general store has several different items and it's neat how they have several kinds of vintage things around like the cabinets and post office boxes. The place is very neat and clean. Located out in the country, such a nice get away from the hustle and bustle of San Antonio. We will go back and try the breakfast nex read more

I enjoy both the general store and the restaurant at Camp Verde! Recommend both to anyone looking!

If you come here, the easiest and quickest way to get seated is to reserve a table. Even if it's not during peak hours! The first time we came here, we waited 20 mins to even be recognized at the hostess table and then because we didn't have a reservation, it was yet another 25-30 mins to wait. However, I wanted to give this place another shot. It was incredibly clean, wirh high ceilings. This would be a perfect place for a wedding if they did anhthing around the area! Brought my kid's here before dropping them off at summer camp. They wanted to get food in their bellies before camp life. They decided to order appetizers and their own main meal and dessert. What we ordered: - truffle fries w/Sriracha Aioli: my son devoured these and loved the dip! They were crispy and had the right amount of truffles and Parmesan! A definitely must try!!! - chips & queso: it's hard to mess up queso! This was incredibly good and felt super fresh instead of from a can. They will refill your chips If you need it! - kid's grilled cheese: huge pieces of bread. My daughter though it was exceptional - Cheeseburger: 1/2 lb burger which didn't appear to be frozen! My 13 yr old son ate the entire Thing! The seasoning was on point. - Arthur's delight: everything in this sandwich complimented each other except for the jalapeño jam. The jam was overly sweet and no heat. The jam itself was great but mixed with rest Of the component s - panicota ice cream: was light, delicious and had a unique taste to it! I'd definitely go back and get that! - the incredible cake: It wasnt the best. It reminded me of those frozen chocolate individual frozen silk pies you can get at Walmart or heb. The waitress was superb and attentive. The second time around not having to wait was a plus! I'd definitely come back read more

Went here 10years ago. Obviously things change . In this situation, for the worse, unfortunately. Food was very subpar. Beef enchiladas were more tortilla than beef and cheese. Burger was tasteless and fries were cold and dry. Rice seemed like couscous and not real rice. The nostalgia of Christmas was not what it was before. New ownership does make a difference. read more

Good service and good food - reasonable prices. Relative small menue but everything tastes great.

Absolutely atrocious service! Been sitting here for half an hour waiting to get a coffee refill! No food. Will not return. Used to be our favorite lunch spot. read more

Omg!!! Everything was perfect! This historical spot was a military post and has soooo many beautiful buildings and views! The food is the icing on top! Started with a wonderful and attentive waitress and the food came out quickly and steaming hot! We got friend pickle spears with ranch to start and my husband got a messy burger and I got a club sandwich! Best one I had in a while. The general store literally has the cutest things! Perfect for all your Christmas shopping needs! We will be back read more

Although it is a drive from our area, it is worth the drive. The main dining area, food and service are excellent. Try to leave room for their desserts. It has a big shopping area next to the restaurant. The area around the restaurant grounds is very scenic. Consider making reservations during busy hours and holidays because it is very popular place for all the locals and tourists. read more

Service was average but friendly. The food not so much...immediately felt sick to my stomach after leaving. Also I do not recommend the truffle fries, they were completely burnt and tasted "off". read more

Went on Sunday afternoon Memorial Day weekend. Was a 30 minute wait but you can skip the line with a reservations. They give you a remote so you can wander the awesome store. We splurged all out and the price was good. Great presentation, awesome staff, and great ambiance. Everything tasted so good and the Peach Cobbler was amazing! If I could change anything it would perhaps the onion rings. Just a tad thick and could use better breading. Such a great place! read more

Two days prior, we drove past Camp Verde on our way to Fredericksburg and made a mental note to look it up. Intrigued, we decided to stop by for breakfast before beginning our journey home to Fort Worth. We arrived a little before opening and waited in our car before heading inside shortly after 8am. We were, of course, the first and only party seated. We ordered coffee, tea, the omelette, and the huevos rancheros. We were shocked that the omelette automatically comes with everything ingredients listed - we assumed it was a "pick what you like" type thing like at other spots. So my husband got everything, except the jalapeños. It was delicious! Well seasoned and each ingredient was cooked perfectly. The huevos rancheros were also delicious! Nice and crispy tortillas - but not crunchy, they were just perfect. Lots of flavor in the beans and salsa. Perfect bacon...and the potatoes! So crispy, fluffy, and nicely seasoned. We couldn't get over how tasty they were. Staff was friendly and attentive. The shop has lots of fun items, and the grounds were very pretty. We enjoyed the brief walk around before settling back in the car for a long ride home. read more

Overall good food. They seated us despite claiming they were busy but had many open tables. The service was excellent. The dining room was quiet. The gift shop is really nice and had a ton of nice but unnecessary gifts. The kids section is particularly nice with a great selection of books and toys read more

A true treasure located in a cozy little cove alongside a quiet Texas road. Look up the history, rather cool. A simple yet beautifully done building, where history meets retro modernity. Affordable and some of the best food I have ever had in my life. The chef even came out and shook hands and asked how our food was. It was all so wonderful we decided we had to make a reason to be back in this part of Texas at a future day to experience it again read more

This is our second visit and the food, service and ambiance is 5star! Our waitress was so professional, sweet and very informative. She made sure we made room for there house deserts. It such a pretty drive it the Camp Verde! read more

First Class! The store is such a treat. Everyone is so pleasant and welcoming. The store is historic and rustic, but well stocked with a fabulous variety of gifts and salsas. The restaurant is elegant and a great menu. I ordered meatloaf and was surprised with nearly a pond of meat. Two sides with great portions. I'm not a Brussels sprouts fan, but I am after that side today! I asked for the chef to compliment him on his ability to change my mind about the sprouts. He was delightful to visit with and gave me some of his secrets. I'm ready for another visit. We did miss the camels. read more

This is definitely a unique place to dine if you're taking a scenic drive into the country. Half of the establishment is a store of all sorts of items from candles, plates, souvenirs with camels. It has an interesting history as well if you're into that sort of thing. It's a clean restaurant with plenty of space. It is a bit echoey during times of high traffic. Service varies to be honest with some servers more attentive than others. I had the Messy Burger and it was as delicious as it was messy. The chicken fried chicken was juicy with a good crust. The apple basket is very similar to an apple pie - but somehow better - might be the cute addition of the camel chocolate. read more

Everything . The. food is great. Inexpensive . The service was great. It's a pretty drive from Fair Oaks. Try it, you will love it.

Very pleasant atmosphere and wait staff were very friendly. The food was good maybe a B+ but it was appetizing to look at. Dessert was complete with a chocolate camel garnish which as an added surprise. All in all, I would definitely bring my lady friends back for a joyful relaxing luncheon. Men too! read more

Excellent service and food was outstanding! Don't miss this place! Service portions were huge! Never seen onion rings that big before

Wonderful location great historic location to walk around. Shop has nice items a little pricey but nice to just look. The restaurant reminded me of a modern Victorian place, servers ate so helpful and friendly. The food was delicious. We enjoyed our time here read more

When we walked in for a birthday celebration meal,I was excited was I to see it was voted one of the 100 best restaurants in the country.It was established in the 1800's, maybe it was one of the best back then but certainly not now, not with all the great restaurants n ot only in this state, but in the country. We don't mind waiting forty five minutes.Even though we had a reservation so we walked around the shop.It's very alluring, and I did buy some things, we all did. When we were seated, we ordered Philadelphia cheesesteak sandwiches that couldn't even hold a small candle to Jersey Mikes, my daughter in law and I , my grandson had a pork chop. That was neither browned or crispy. Just a pale pork chop. My son had a Chicken Fried steak. He's never been to some of the other restaurants in this area that serve really great ones. I didn't say anything, but it was small, flat,not crispy. The finale of this dinner was when the ice cream was brought to the table with the cakes and our waitress said. She would be back with the spoons when she brought the coffee. Well, it was about 10 minutes later she had vanished . Then she appeared with the spoons, and of course, the Ice cream was partially melted. The waitress looked very tired, this is why I didn't say anything.I felt bad for her.. The food was mediocre except one thing I would go back here for the onion rings.They were outstanding . read more

I saw this place by happenstance, had it in the back of my mind to come back. Had no idea what it was. Let me tell you... it's worth the drive. The General Store alone is worth coming and poking around. I didn't eat at the restaurant until my second visit, but let me tell you, it was delish. Debbie was our server, and she was fantastic. I'm normally hesitant to order queso from... well... from places like this. However! Their queso is delicious. We sampled their sandwiches and were not disappointed! We will be coming back to this place, would highly recommend it. read more

Had stops in Bandera (vet), then Kerrville (shopping and HEB pickup), so decided to have lunch at Camp Verde on the way back home to Utopia. Great pet friendly patio with perfect temperature, clouds and blue skies above. Nice service. Excellent iced tea. The wife had the Ooh-La-La with fried okra and I had chicken strips with delicious gravy, garlic mashed potatoes and onion rings. Everything very good and we have lunch for tomorrow. Huge servings. Then as a last minute decision, I got a slice of coconut cream pie to go. Just finished the pie. THE BEST!!!! Lots of vanilla and coconut, crust nice and cream on top. Worth any drive just for the pie. Several other desserts on the list. And camel history. read more

CV hosted our daughter's wedding rehearsal dinner with the assistance of Dominic. Layout was perfect and service was above and beyond! Selection of entrees accommodated all and included a vegan option. Food was delicious! Miranda was very attentive and took good care of our guests. She and Dominic checked with me several times to make sure all was well. I highly recommend CV restaurant for any special events or just a meal while driving through. An added bonus is the large gift shop. It's the perfect place to eat and stretch your legs with delicious food, great service and fun shopping. read more

From the hostess to the manager the hospitality of Camp Verde is phenomenal! My children and I enjoyed a lovely lunch here. I ordered the taco salad , chips and queso while my children enjoyed the gluten free cheeseburgers. They have a wonderful selection of foods, desserts and café drinks. They even have specialty items for those looking for vegetarian or gluten free options. The scenery of the hill country outside to the beautifully designed architecture and decor inside is unmatched and stunning. Camp Verde is a beautiful vacation restaurant I love to visit when I come here to visit my In-laws and I highly recommend this place. The waitress was more than kind and attentive as well as the manager who helped me out to my vehicle as well which was very thoughtful. This place is usually busy and we know it's because of their character and scrumptious delectables. Thank you Camp Verde for a beautiful Sunday lunch! read more

Missing some special elements that once were the highlights.. While it's still ascetically pleasing the scene outside -creek and big trees and it appears clean inside - but the food was sub par the last few times ..ex: the oh La La sandwich was a favorite for years .. now it's dry each time and not as flavorful as it once was. Also Looking at the plates around me they all seemed to lack care in plating and not fresh. Also the front hostess section could use more friendly faces.. first impression was - they hate their job. read more

Have eaten here many times and have enjoyed bothering the food and atmosphere. Went in recently, at 11:00 AM, middle of the week, and was turned away because I didn't have a reservation. They had open tables, so I assume the didn't have staff to take care of a large group that went In ahead of me. My party was only 2 people. Kind of disappointing since I had made the drive out there. read more
