    This little gem is in the back of the store.
    Dave F.

    This review is for the cafe in the back. Umm, bacon - let that word start to resonate in your mind. I was hungry while driving between Houston and San Antonio. Not expecting much for being out in the country, I decided to hit up Yelp for lunch. Well, today was a lucky spin. Imagine a cold winter day. You're in the house trying to get warm. The only thing that feels good is a warm blanket. Why does this matter? When I opened my bacon cheeseburger, there was literally a bacon blanket covering the inside of my burger. As I closed the burger and brought it to my mouth for the first bite, it was like the music video for Loverboy's Almost Paradise song. I'm not even kidding -- not only was the burger solid, but there was an appropriate bacon overload. Some bacon fell out, but there was still plenty of bacon in the burger. Oh, and don't worry -- I didn't leave a fallen bacon behind. I will post a picture of the burger. I had ordered onion rings as well, but truthfully I never made it to them. I was full about halfway through my burger. I devoted all of my strength to taking down edible work of art. Man won with the burger, but the onion rings were orphaned. If you're driving between Houston and San Antonio, stop by. They take all major credit cards. It's only 2 minutes or so off the highway. I can't wait to stop back by this place. BTW, if you don't see any reviews from me for a while, I'm in a food coma.

    The smokehouse

    Wonderful surprise on a last minute Texas roadtrip. The market looks pretty much like a convenience store in the front, but walk to the back room and you'll find a bunch of picnic tables and the entrance to the smokehouse - just follow the aroma! The brisket was awesome and was was a welcome treat vs. the restaurant choices we saw off the highway. Well worth a short detour. Basic traditional sides - beans, potato salad, onions, pickles etc.

    Feeling a little adventurous? Bypass Buc-Ee's and try this little spot! The owners Rudy and Deanna were very welcoming which makes the food taste even better. They also sell fresh blue bell for the kiddos.

    The previous reviews tell the story about the place. We had breakfast, ordered at the walk up window from the menu she had there. The people weren't very friendly and no one spoke to us, it seemed really awkward, like they really didn't care about you as a customer. But we ordered and sat at the picnic style table. Oh, I had to get the coffee from the store drink counter. Which I didn't mind getting my coffee....The food came and was OK, it was cooked like we ordered. My husbands knife wasn't clean and my fork felt greasy. I didn't tell them but I wiped my fork off and we lay the knife aside. I probably wouldn't stop in again for breakfast, although maybe for their barbecue. It was a unique experience and was definitely a local spot, maybe the only spot in Waelder.

    Tastes even better than it looks

    Amazing bbq!! Like, Salt lick good. Friendly little market and Cafe. 2 restaurants in back. Cafe was closed so we got BBQ. Sooooo good. Chicken was bbqed to perfection!! Brisket was great. Chopped beef sandwich was amazing. Happy bellies! Glad we stopped in on our way back to Houston. Ps, grabbed a scoop of ice cream on way out. Yum!

    The best place for the best burgers around! The breakfast is also great! Try the Abelardo special if you can handle it! It's a mountain of food! Keep up the good work guys!

    Cheeseburger and fries

    Waelder is a blip on the map between San Houston and San Antonio. We decided to stop at the blip and check out the market. You walk in and the market is at the front of the store. Keep walking to the back past the ice cream and you will get to the restaurant. Picnic tables are there for you to sit and eat. Chicken fried steak was available, but we decided on the cheeseburger. #thebomb.comjuicyanddelicious (see attached pic) The 1/2 lb burger really didn't need a lot of French fries....to top it off, I walked into the smokehouse. The pit master sliced some brisket and a link of homemade sausage and, of course, the fixin's. Highly recommend!!! And the ladies working there were VERY friendly!!

    Nice breakfast platter!

    Mile off interstate 10 but we'll worth the drive. Excellent BBQ in back of the store. Home town restaurant.

    The ambience is clearly a restaurant attached to a livestock Arena. I don't think you would…read morenecessarily aim to visit this restaurant for that reason it is however kept. The food, which in my case was a hamburger was absolutely wonderful. The french fries were equally well done. The portions are generous and given how busy the restaurant is it was very well prepared. Again, given how busy this particular restaurant is the service is amazingly efficient, and the staff is very nice. Although I would suggest it is not a place you would necessarily want to come to relative to its ambience on the other hand you would miss a wonderful meal if you did not. In my case I chose the meal over the ambience and it was well worth it and that is the reason I give it five stars.

    We had occasion to have lunch in Gonzales with some family members as we all came for the Gonzales…read moreMemorial Museum. The sevice was great. The food was especially good with large portions and very reasonably priced. I understand there is a meat market next door (I assume the meat comes from there). My Philly Cheese Steak was excellent. The hamburgers are 1/2 pound (unless you want bigger) and very good. My wife had the BLT and was amazed at how much better than normal the bacon was. Our nephew, who is a big eater, couldn't even finish his chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and country gravy and said he's never had better. We all had fries and they were fresh, house-made, and delicious. None of us could finish them all. We pass through Gonzales maybe a dozen times a year and since this place is a couple of block west of where we join Hwy 90A, we've never seen it. Other reviewers mentioned that it seems to be a favorite of the locals and now it one of ours too. The tables fill the room and if there were more I'm sure they would fill them, though that might mean the fast service could suffer, so to me it's fine as is. We will return and will start planning our trips to include lunch here. They close at 2 pm so will leave home with that in mind.
