As someone who loves ice cream and eats it often, they have one of the best homemade waffle cones to pair with their ice cream. Don't worry if you don't want a cone, they have cups and homemade cookies that you can make an ice cream sandwich with. They also serve shakes, acai bowls or a peanut butter protein bowl where you can pick your toppings. I tried the protein bowl today and topped it with granola, bananas, strawberries, coconut flakes, and honey. It was refreshing and hit the spot! I'll definitely be getting it again.

The restaurant is set inside an old train car, which is just really cool and different. The hamburgers are always spot on -- juicy and full of flavor -- and I can't pass up the Reuben. It's perfectly toasted with plenty of meat and just tastes great every single time. The service is consistently friendly and welcoming, which makes the stop even better. It's become a tradition for us, and it never disappoints. If you're anywhere near Brownwood, it's definitely worth pulling off the road for.

The food is world-class: thoughtfully conceived, beautifully executed, and consistently excellent. You would normally have to travel to Austin, Dallas, or Houston to find a restaurant of this caliber--and pay significantly more. The fact that Mary delivers this level of quality here, and does so consistently, is remarkable. Everything is cooked to order, exactly as it should be in a serious kitchen. This is not fast, mass-produced food--and that's the point. If you value freshness, precision, and quality, The Turtle delivers every time. The bar is equally outstanding, and one of my favorite places to sit and dine. This is an ideal place for date nights or when hosting out-of-town guests you truly want to impress. The Turtle impressed my hardest-to-please food critic, which says everything. For me, it has become a regular favorite--one of Brownwood's absolute treasures. Go for the food. Stay for the ambience. #thebar

Commongrounds is the only coffee shop (that I know of) in Brownwood/Early besides Starbucks and unfortunately, the coffee here is not my favorite- I've tried their coffee 3 or 4 times and it wasn't for me. I feel like the coffee here tastes a little watered down and I don't get the roasted coffee bean flavor that I crave. As for the food here, it's a hit or miss. I tried their BLT sandwich but I would personally skip it. The bacon was too crunchy and hard (it reminded me of those bacon bits that you put on top of salads). If that's your thing, go for it but it was personally not for me. Something I thoroughly enjoyed from their food menu was their breakfast burritos. I've tried their green chile chicken w/avcado burrito as well as their brisket burritos and they were both delicious! And when you add their homemade red and/or green sauce, it's even better. That being said, I tried their 'bowl' version and it's just the filling of the burrito without the tortilla andI didn't think it was worth it. Overall, Comongrounds Coffee is a great spot to catch up with friends or get some work done (they have outlets towards the back as well as wifi). Not to mention, the workers there are friendly and helpful! If you visit, I highly recommend getting their breakfast burritos!

The beefsteak could be but with a fork and was very good. Sides were fresh and hot. Speaking of hot... those hot rolls were amazing!!! I tried a little peach cobbler which was homemade and one of the servers came around and offered homemade whipped cream. OMG it was so yummy!!! The place is a cafeteria style and very clean. There is simple decor on the walls including a wall with a bunch of old rifles from back in the day which is cool. I'd definitely recommend this place (and in fact already have to the group I'm in town with right now). Thank you Underwood's for being here and making my day!
