    Cold beer! Cold beer! Ice cold beer! That's what this place is famous for:)…read more We were in town to visit my daughter and her husband and to see Tarleton State University play in the FCS playoffs. We needed some place to eat, and my daughter recommended this place. The location is easy to get in, and they have plenty of parking. After walking in, we found that they were not crowded yet. We were greeted quickly and taken to our seats in the main room. Our waiter brought us menus and water and left us to review the menu and decide on what we wanted. We ordered chicken sandwich, chicken strips. and a burger. It wasn't long until our food was delivered. Each order was just as we requested, hot, and tasty. It did not take long for our table to devour our meals I didn't get our waiter's name, but he did a good job. He probably is a student at TSU, as this business really caters to that crowd, and he fit the age. Will I return? Definitely when in Stephenville.

    We looked up dog friendly restaurants and Bosque River Taphouse comes up with a picture of a dog on…read morethe patio. We were refused service because our dog was not a service animal with a vest. If that had been what was advertised, we would not have attempted to dine there. The excuse was the turf and that they can't change what is advertised. Turf is often used for easy clean up with dogs. Outside patios that don't allow dogs will prevent customers from coming. If the rest of their service is like this experience maybe it saved us a bad meal. Also maybe this is why on a Friday night this place is half empty.

    When you arrive place your order at the register then find a seat. The crab has Fantastic flavor,…read moreamazing customer service! We will definitely be back.

    Decided to try out The Shack for a crawfish fix. It's early in the season but we wanted to check it…read moreout. There's not a lot of parking but we lucked out and got a spot up front. They have indoor and outdoor seating which is nice but we chose to sit inside because it was pretty chilly out side. When you go in there is a menu board directly in front of you and you place your order at the register. I placed our order for crab, shrimp, and crawfish for me and my husband, and chicken strips for our daughter. We took a seat and waited. When our order came out we were slightly underwhelmed by the crab clusters. They were $12.99 each and extremely small. Unfortunately they were also overcooked and the shells wouldn't crack, just bend. We moved on to the crawfish and the first impression was that they were okayish. Most of them were cold and overcooked as well. There was a good spice level but not a lot of flavor in the crawfish themselves. We realized that they forgot to give us our shrimp so my husband asked the girl at the register and they brought them out super quick. The shrimp were the best thing we had! They were hot when they came out and cooked perfectly! We had other items as well; corn, boiled potatoes, and sausage. The corn and potatoes were okay, just overcooked and the sausage wasn't anything special. Just sausage. My daughter did say that she enjoyed the chicken and fries that she had and she would order them again. All in all it was a disappointing experience. Our meal was $120 and not worth it. Like I told my husband, if it had been half the price it might have been easier to swallow. Right before we left an employee asked my husband how things were and he explained what the main issues were, she received the complaint and offered to bring out more crawfish but my husband declined as we were about to leave. I hope this was just an off night and not a common occurrence.
