    Salad with added chicken

    This place has the best food in Lockhart, if you go make sure you get some duck fat potatoes. They are amazingly crunchy omg they are so good. The chicken breast is so juicy you can add if to most anything. The breakfast sandwich has 2 eggs on it and yoke everywhere so use a fork If you like Italian style Wednesday they have many selections and they make all their own pasta that's awesome. The wait staff are awesome Anna and Zion are the best

    Blueberry coriander pie

    Another hidden gem in Lockhart TX. The service was excellent and the food was good as well. I tried the blueberry coriander pie. I like the flavor of the filling. The crust was a bit chewy to me. The burger I had was very good, I also liked how seasoned the fries were. The falafel sandwich was decent. It didn't wow me but a very good choice nevertheless. The have a very try clean and inviting restaurant. It really gives you that hometown cafe feeling. Check them out!!

    Chicken fried steak

    Stopped by here on a work trip and was pleasantly amazed! The staff was awesome and attentive. The restaurant is right on the square in front of the courthouse and is so cozy inside. There are not many items on the menu but that's ok because they execute those items very well! I had the chicken fried steak that was accompanied by green beans and smashed potatoes! Everything was amazing! I'm not a gravy person but even that had a wonderful taste and texture. Will definitely visit again. Our wonderful waiter told us about the numerous dinner specials and drinks for our next visit!

    An upscale diner in Lockhart with the lively buzz of patrons and staff filling the air. The vibe is super welcoming, and the open-concept kitchen lets you watch the team in action. The staff is hustling, making sure everyone's taken care of, and the bartenders are totally engaged with their guests, adding to the overall great energy. We ordered the yeast rolls as an appetizer (it's yeast rolls, you can't just give those to folks?). At $5 for two, that was a bit of a "wait, what?!". They're not exactly a difficult or expensive item to make, so that price stood out. The roasted chicken was super tender, perfectly seasoned on the outside, but the seasoning didn't make it through the meat, so that's an aspect that should be addressed (the flavor on the outside was perfection, though!). The molasses carrots were just right--cooked perfectly and not too sweet. Mashed potatoes? Spot on! As for the chicken fried steak, we went with mashed potatoes instead of the usual duck fat crispy potatoes that come with it. The chicken fried steak was good. We had the blueberry lemon chess pie for dessert and I couldn't eat it. The compote on top was so sweet, it took away from the pie itself. The crust wasn't very good - too thick and not cooked all the way through. I'm not one to leave desserts uneaten, but I didn't love it. All in all, this is a great addition to Lockhart and sometime different from the usual Lockhart spots. We will definitely be back and I look forward to trying more.

    Family meal - Chicken Parmesan with green beans

    Commerce cafe continues to be one of my favorite restaurants in central Texas. Located in charming Lockhart, the atmosphere is friendly and casual but the food is delicious. I love their Monday night family meal. It's always so tasty and piping hot. Even when busy they provide fantastic service!

    Had a wonderful lunch here today. Service was fast and efficient. Love watching the staff cook in the open kitchen. Everything was made fresh to order. Got there at 11:30 and we were seated immediately. A little after 12:00 and things were getting busier. Great find on the town square.

    The location is easy to find, and access, with adequate street parking…read more Katz coffee is served, which we learned to really enjoy after touring their roasting location in Houston. I was disappointed in the Ruben sandwich. Mind you, it was served warm as most are, but after eating Reubens from delis with lots of meat, from the photos you can see that my Reuben from here had a skimpy serving of meat. Additionally, I thought that the menu had it at one price and the register rung it up as $1.00 higher. I found that it is a dollar more for a salad. It comes standard with chips. That's reasonable to me and I thought that the salad was good. My spouse had the burger, and she enjoyed it. She liked that it came with a choice of fries or a healthy salad. I was pleased that a Zero Coke was only $2.00. That's extremely reasonable!

We needed some good coffee, so we stopped by Tille's Cafe. It has a really cute interior, and I ordered an Iced Hot & Dirty, which is a Chai Latte with a shot of espresso. I swapped the milk for oat milk, and I was impressed, it was delicious!! The bathrooms are very clean. The staff was friendly. They serve food as well, though we didn't stay to eat. I did notice others enjoying their meals and reading inside! A cute little coffee shop if you're looking to catch up with friends, do some work, etc.!
