They are somewhat…read moreobstructed from view from the street by a large tree, so they may not be so easy to spot be accident. We were visiting from out of town and I located them using Yelp. I wasn't disappointed. The area is beautiful! The ambiance of the dining area is simple and tactfully decorated and the chairs, comfortable. Our sever was happy and upbeat and the managing owner checked in on us frequently to make sure that we were taken good care of. A sure sign that they care about their customers. There menu is interesting with a creative twist on breakfast/brunch fare. I had really good breakfast tacos with a small black bean side. To be honest, I am not a black bean fan but really enjoyed these! The home fries were also very satisfying. They also offered cornbread pancakes that were really something special. The manager said that it was their own take on pancakes and Johnny cakes. My whole crew enjoyed everything! The whole experience was really pleasant and plan to visit again next time I am in town. The restaurant was bustling with a lot of people who all seemed very happy. I thought the ambiance was great which has really left my with a positive impression of the place. Great job crew!

Came here for the first time with my ohana. Ordered:…read more Appetizer: Mammaws Old School Cheese Sticks: light flaky crust with delicious melt mozzarella cheese Entree: Chicken Fried Steak: a bit bland, but decent, but nothing special about it. The meat was pretty huge though Spicy Jalapeño Burger: very juicy and delicious. Tons of jalapeños. Philly Steak: surprisingly delicious. Very tender and cheesy with a strong taste. Carbonara Pasta w/ Grilled Chicken: sauce could be a little thicker, but the flavor was there. Very delicious Overall: decently priced for a decent sized portion. Fries seemed to be fried in possibly old oil based on the color and taste. It was also salty af, and I love salt. They also have desserts, but we were stuffed. Staff was friendly, but we barely saw him after taking our order and dropping it off. We waited a while for him to stop by for our check. Lots of tables to dine at and lots of free parking around the area.

Seemed like such a inconvenience to her that I chose to eat here…read more Service is terrible, waited so long to just order and even then the waitress had the audacity to seem bored out by me ordering. When it was time to refill my drink no one was to be seen, had to fill my drink myself. Part of me didn't even want to pay, i'm not one to leave ratings or anything but | couldn't hold my tongue about this place. Would not recommend at all. (Update: I emailed the owner and nothing, seems like just another owner who doesn't care about his customers experiences)

I ordered the Glow Up smoothie, which was not on the menu in the store, but they did have it. It was just ok. The flavors were bland to me. Maybe it's my tastebuds, I took 3 sips and threw it away.

We hit up Proudest Monkey again in downtown Bryan and this time it was a win all around. The place…read morehas been slinging burgers, tacos and cocktails to the Brazos Valley since forever in restaurant years and the locals seem to love it for good reason. My wife ordered a burger and devoured it without a single word. This is how I know she truly enjoyed it. I went for two tacos (they run about $6 bucks each) including the Pulled Hammy and the Mama Migas. Both were packed with flavor and spicy enough to keep me on my toes. Service was on point. Our waitress hustled even though it was a chill lunch crowd. The bar itself has this cozy (not wide) historic downtown vibe with brick and wood and all the kind of stuff you see in those hip Austin places people brag about. This is why you give everyone a 2nd chance. We'll be back!

Entered a raffle with an older couple for a pistol on the way out, which I wasn't expecting, but as the elderly gentlemen said, one can never have too many firearms. Fingers crossed I guess lol all around a fun stop for lunch.

We were BLOWN AWAY by the number of college students, dressed in their Sunday's best, openly praying over their food before enjoying some awesome chicken. It was SO NICE TO SEE! We ordered a family meal (20 pieces), 2 sides of fries and a chicken sandwich meal. We paid around $40. Great value! The food came out quick and arrived hot and fresh. I had a slight "issue" where I thought my chicken wasn't fully cooked and the manager reassured me that it was just breading but happily remade my sandwich to give me peace of mind. I REALLY appreciated that. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals, literally leaving "not a fry left behind." The size of my chicken on the sandwich was HUGE- had to be hanging off the roll by 2" on each side! Staff were phenomenal. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Love the laid back decor. Plenty of seating inside and some tables outdoors as well. Definitely recommend!

The Cookshack has a different vibe and feels more like a lunch or dinner spot, while Mess is the perfect breakfast place. Alright, who am I reviewing again? Right. The Cookshack has some great options, and my wife and I went for the Chicken & Waffles. I chose the hottest seasoning they had--pretty sure it was ghost pepper--and yeah, it was spicy but didn't make me miserable. There was a lot of food, and it definitely filled us up. My wife got mac n cheese with hers and really enjoyed every bite. The cashier was nice and attentive. The atmosphere is great for a lunch or dinner date. Plus, they have large booths, which we really appreciate.
