We reserved a table for 8 for a friend's Sunday surprise birthday brunch. We did call ahead and were pleased that they had no issue with us bringing a Bday cake. Even though we arrived early to surprise the Birthday girl, our table was ready, and our server brought water as we awaited the guest of honor. Service throughout our visit was excellent. Goodfolks has an extended brunch menu and some interesting cocktails to get your motor running on a Sunday Funday. Bloodies and French 75s were table favorites. Check out their online menu for a complete list of their craft cocktails and local beer offerings. Highlights were the basic classic breakfast: applewood smoked bacon, 2 Vital Farms eggs, potato hash, and Texas toast. Three of us ordered our eggs served differently, and they all arrived perfecto. Another highlight was the chicken and biscuits. This serving is huge and was a struggle for most to finish. The chicken breast arrived crispy, lightly battered as advertised. The maple sage gravy and syrup honey butter provide a sweet taste to the dish. Two of us struggled to remember what business occupied this location before Goodfolks. Thank you, Elise, for your 2022 review, which reminded us that the Burger University was the previous tenant. I would recommend reservations, as they did get pretty busy. Easy 5-star review for this wonderful Georgetown Square restaurant. , read more

Two years in a row, during the Georgetown Red Poppy Festival, we've gone in Goodfolks, up stairs to the bar, sat down and waited, and waited AND WAITED. Just to finally get up and leave. The GM was behind the bar hanging up glassware. We told him that we'd like to order. He replied 'Sorry, I'm the GM. I don't serve drinks. I've been here since 9 o'clock this morning. I've been really busy.' Well, if you were worth anything as a GM, people wouldn't be walking out on you, frustrated about not being served! read more

Love this little location. Very upscale looking and feel. I think that they are lacking on presentation when it comes to food though. If you look at the pictures, they don't scream upscale at all. Cutting food on a piece of paper in a wire basket sucks. Hard to cut chicken and waffles on and horrible with the syrup. The Service, however, was amazing, but the food lacked when it came to the quality of the cooked chicken because some of it was perfectly cooked, whereas some looked a little overcooked. The salad tasted amazing! But the waffle was hard and in some spots difficult to cut with a knife. Overall, not bad and would love to give them a second chance! read more

This used to be our favorite Georgetown spot. We've been here countless times and loved it, but unfortunately today we were just... disappointed. They seemed to have made many changes in the last three months. First, you don't order at the table anymore. It's fine, but compared to before we just felt very rushed, especially since the menu had changed. When the food came, we didn't get the sides we had picked for our sandwiches. When we asked about it, they told us that they were out of that particular side and forgot to tell us. Again that would be fine, except instead of letting us know and asking us to pick a new one from the available options, they just gave us a random side. We ordered the PBLT for the first time and were disappointed with the "simplicity" of it. It was literally just toast with a piece of lettuce, a piece of tomato, a large amount of mayo, and a few pork belly slices. It didn't taste bad but was not something I'd order again, I could've easily made that at home The chicken & waffles dish used to be our absolute favorite with its delicious, thick, and fluffy waffles. Today, we were served tiny, thin, and hard waffles that felt like eating old eggo waffles. The dish was also served in a wire basket with paper instead of a plate which meant we basically cut the chicken on the table. See attached picture for reference. On the plus side, the staff is still very nice and attentive and the place looks beautiful as always. All in all, we sincerely hope they reverse all these (what felt like) downgrades. We won't be coming back if it stays this way. read more

The menu definitely changed and the food is so mid. Goodfolks used to be one our fav spots, now I wouldn't recommend it at all. The menu is now very simple and fast food-like and the food isn't cooked well or tastes very good. Before: It had classier, more complex, and better prepared food. The food itself was cooked to perfection and the flavors were interesting. Now: Pretzel bites were definitely from a bag and extremely overcooked with barely any salt. The cheese was served in a disposable plastic bowl. They don't really use dish-ware anymore and serve in baskets and paper. The chicken and waffles are seasoned differently than before and I don't like the new version. Whatever changed needs to be reversed. :/ read more

Their fried chicken and mashed potatoes were fabulous. Good food, good service , and a cute restaurant decor.

A nice cafe located on the corner of the Georgetown square. This cafe has a small menu that is worth checking out. It also has alcoholic beverages for consumption. Today I stopped by and was seated right away. They were a little busy so it took a little time before they came by to get our order. The server did apologize for our wait. I ordered the Goodfolks classic chicken sandwich with their sidewinder fries. The food was very good. I enjoyed my visit here and most likely be back when Im in GT. Thank you Goodfolks for a good experience. read more

The hostess and server were great!! We waited about 15 minutes to be seated, once we sat I ordered a margarita and the waitress said it'd be 45 minutes till we get our food and drinks, which was okay. My friend ordered sweet tea but was given unsweetened twice lol. We ended up getting everything in a timely manner. There was an ant in my water. The margarita was great. Brussel sprouts tasted amazing. The tender basket was tasty too, I understand the "specialty sauce" is a $1.00 extra, but the container was not filled, it was maybe less than half. It was pretty loud with a lot of little kids running around the top floor. read more

They took a bunch of favorites OFF the menu. So maybe check online before heading there. My friend and I both used to love and recommend Goodfolks to lots of people, so we met there for lunch. We were both so disappointed in the menu changes that we left and lunched at Sweet Lemon Cafe instead. Big bummer. read more

Adorable place! We had a reservation and arrived early, but they seated us right away. We were placed upstairs, which was noticeably warmer than downstairs--something to keep in mind if you're sensitive to temperature. Our waitress was attentive and helpful, even answering questions about a specialty cocktail that wasn't listed on the menu. The food was decent--nothing standout, but solid overall. The ambiance and service definitely made the experience enjoyable. read more

I visited here with two friends for brunch last Sunday. It was around lunch time. I didn't have a reservation but we were able to be seated in a timely manner. We were seated upstairs which is where the bar is located. There is also a bathroom on each floor and an elevator which I think is awesome. Our waitress Aubrey was great as it was some of our first time going to this place she helped us figure out what was the good items for brunch. Also the whole experience was good overall. The food was banging!!!!! My breakfast sandwich was so good. Everyone enjoyed their meal. No crumbs left lol. Also, the brownie was so rich and so delicious. It was a great way to end a good meal! I will definitely be back. I heard that the fried chicken is good so I can't wait to do a review read more

Sat at the bar (make sure to look up at the cool ceiling) and the experience was wonderful. The decor and ambiance was fun, bright and design forward. The space of the entire restaurant is gorgeous with the second tier tables looking over the ground floor space. Service was spectacular. Negroni was perfect. The biscuits are a must, 10/10. Coleslaw was 10/10, perfectly dressed with a slightly sweet but tangy dressing. White meat fried chicken was dry and overcooked, 3/10. Seasoning wasn't quite there. Truffle Mac and cheese was decent but barely tasted any truffle, 5/10, and more like butter noodles. Hubs got the buffalo chicken burger and said was good. Tried his fries and they were great! My favorite part about the experience was their set of beautiful wooden games at the bar. We played connect 4 while sipping on drinks and it was so fun. read more

We came for brunch and... Honestly I had really high hopes for this place because the restaurant itself has such a cute vibe and aesthetic. It's really beautifully decorated. Expect a long wait for literally everything, not the servers fault I think they were just really behind despite it not being super busy. The food was honestly just okay, we got chicken tenders and their breakfast sandwich, our server did preface us ordering that food takes about 25 minutes, when we had already waited 40 for a table we were starving! Maybe we need a reservation next time? read more

We had a good meal at Goodfolks! The best part, though, was our wonderful server, Morgan. She was efficient, a good problem solver, and just an nice person. read more

Wow is all I can say. No table service anymore. Menu is way different and limited. I guess it's been a while since we've been here. The brunch use to be extensive. Now it's 3 items. No queso and they use to have a the best in GT. Bartender was good. But people kept coming up asking for drinks complaining that no one downstairs would help them. Take this place off the rotation. read more

The restaurant was much bigger inside than it looked from the outside, plenty of seating and spacious enough to accommodate our larger party! The chicken sandwiches here are delicious but definitely indulgent. You won't find too many 'healthier' options here but if you're coming to a place known for their chicken and waffles, that should be expected. It's one of better restaurants out in the Georgetown Square, would recommend! read more

If you're up North and craving fried chicken and potatoes in multiple forms, this is the spot! Beautifully succulent chicken (recommend the bone in 1000% over the tenders) with great flavor and so dang juicy. The breading is lighter than what I typically enjoy and some of the skin was a little soft for eating, but overall, quite satisfactory. The dips are highly recommended, so I went with the ranch. Thumbs up for sure. With the four piece combo, you get two sides and two biscuits. Lemme tell ya something, these biscuits are BUTTERY. I was slightly thrown off when they didn't offer butter to go with them, but once I tried it, I realized that they channeled their inner Paula Deen with this recipe. As for sides, I chose the coleslaw which had a nice tang and was well mayo'd but without globs. Top 3 coleslaw I've had this year. The potato salad was also a winner. The dining hall has two levels with the main first floor dining area and then a lofted second floor that a pretty staircase leads directly up to. Pretty, but there were some screaming children whose war cries echoed throughout the entire space. Obviously not the staff's fault, just maybeee more of a family friendly spot than a date night place - just to set expectations for your visit. Our waitress was super accommodating and friendly. Despite having to travel up and down the flight of stairs to check on us, we never felt abandoned or forgotten. Will definitely come back! read more

Goodfolks - 4 piece combo w/ biscuits and 2 sides included - Comfort Food Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

Our server & food was great. Love the atmosphere and location. Would not recommend messing with the hostess upon check-in. Maybe she had an off morning, she wasn't welcoming, not pleasant at all. Overheard her telling the people before us that they needed to be done by 11 am. Just a little put off by her tone and was second guessing our decision to eat there. This was only after the restaurant had been open for 30 minutes. But stayed after getting another hostess who was all smiles and welcomed us as she sat us down. Overall, experience was great and will come back again. read more

Goodfolks was highly recommended for brunch by my neighbor. Haven't had the chance to visit for brunch yet but I made it in one evening for dinner. I had the fried chicken and was really hopeful because I had been craving fried chicken. I would love to have rated it higher but it didn't meet my expectations. It tasted like the grease needed to be changed, but after taking another look at photos, mine was identical to the usual presentation. Maybe it's just an acquired taste. I'll be back to try brunch though. read more

We popped into Goodfolks for dinner last night (Thursday). It wasn't too busy, just a few tables. We were seated right away. Probably five tables with patrons. The decor is very cute, simple and tasteful. We noticed some of the art was actually what looked to be depictions of Georgetown buildings. I love seeing local art. The tables were a little close, we were all listening to each other's conversations. Table to the left was a bit louder and I learned a lot about their business venture (very exciting-hope it goes well)! Table to the right was the sweetest family! While it was enjoyable, I can imagine if fully seated it might be a bit harder to converse with your table. Our waiter was very personable and made recommendations as it was our first visit. The dishes we tried were: Queso and Chips Cajun Chicken Sandwich Chicken Fried NY Strip White chocolate bread pudding Strawberries and Buttermilk cake Every thing we had was freshly and well cooked. The sandwich was a great portion and good flavor. The steak was perfect! I really liked the mashed potatoes. Nice place to dine, good quality food and great service. read more

We came here with a large party for late lunch and was quickly seated. We've been here a couple times already and we always enjoy the southern and modern aesthetic feel of the restaurant. It has a great location on the square! They are known for their biscuits with hot honey and they have never disappointed! I enjoyed the tender chicken wings that is juicy but doesn't feel overwhelmingly oily. We said yes to the dessert and the key lime pie was amazing! The bread pudding was a little too thick/compact but overall we enjoyed it. read more

Goodfolks - Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich-with Sidewinder Fries - Comfort Food Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

The menu here is great for folks with food allergies, clearly labeled and the wait staff is knowledgeable about the process and product. My wife said it's probably the best gluten free bread she has had in a long time. It's got a bit of old school diner feel to it but slightly more upscale- marble like table tops. We both ordered a chicken sandwich and all their choices can be ordered fried or grilled. Gluten free bun but ALSO a gluten free breading option if you want the fried chicken. The fries are a unique cut, sorta like a cross between a steak fry and a curly fry. They were cooked to a golden brown which I really appreciated. The food was great, service great, no complaints. read more

We came here on a Saturday night at around 6:45. I loved the decor and ambiance, it made me feel like I was in a diner in New York City. We had made a reservation, so we were seated promptly. We ordered the biscuits with honey butter as an appetizer, and they were to die for! For our mains, we got the salads with their signature fried chicken on top, along with truffle Mac and cheese, sweet potato fries, and corn esquites. The Mac and cheese was amazing, not too subtle or too strong, and not cloyingly heavy/rich, which was perfect. The fries were also delicious, well-seasoned and crisp. The salads were perfectly sized and the fried chicken was great! Our only complaint were the esquites. They were so salty, we couldn't eat them. Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves, the service was great, and we will be back! read more

Not good at all so we stopped in for late breakfast early lunch I ordered the smash burger for $14 I thought the price was very reasonable but the burger I was served was lacking in Quality and was definitely not a smash burger the one it the picture looked amazing it was definitely photo shopped the undercooked french fries/potato wedges were greasy, soggy and covered in so much salt. I could not eat them. I was going to send them back but I think the waitress went into hiding after she delivered our food because I never seen her again until we received our check , my wife ordered bacon eggs, and it came with potatoes. Some sort of toast looks like somebody stepped on it, when the waitress bought our food to the table my wife asked could I get some jelly please and she said I don't know if we have jelly. I'll have to look about five minutes later she returned to the table with one packet of jelly, the eggs were overcooked. My wife ordered them soft the potatoes came out pretty good. The bacon had no meat on it at all just a bunch of fat and sliced so thin you could see right through it. I finally got the waitresses attention and had her bring the bill over which I quickly paid without a tip and ran out of there and headed to the place down the street to get a cold refreshing drink because I guess in this restaurant you don't get your drink refilled. Needless to say we won't be back. I've had better breakfasts and lunch out of a vending machine. read more

We loved our first time !! Bacon Jam Fried RiceService 5 stars Fried chicken 5 stars Caesar salad 5 stars Overall our first visit to Goodfolks was awesome from ambiance and decor to good food and service... the only reason I gave an overall 4 stars was for the fried rice honestly. It missed the mark but didn't ruin the meal... Honey biscuits were a great sweet start and the caesar salad was AMAZING! Love the corn and pumpkin seeds and the addition of bacon is a no brainer. Our service was great with Hannah... she made great recommendations and took attentive care of us while managing her section! 3 people, 2 starters, a few glasses of wine and 2 full meals, we spent about $125 before tip... The fried chicken was juicy and flavorful and so dang crispy... I loved this southern comfort spot and will rave about the chicken for weeks to come! We really enjoyed the sweet potato fries and the regular plus the honey sriracha sauce was our fave!! Can't wait to try brunch very soon! read more

Goodfolks has quickly become a favorite restaurant of mine for delicious and affordable Southern food with great service! My husband and I stumbled into Goodfolks on a whim for dinner on a Friday night after bailing on another nearby restaurant with bad service. We are SO happy we did because we had an incredible experience from start to finish! We visited around 7:30 pm on a Friday night and had to wait about 15 minutes for a table for 2 with no reservations. FAST FACTS: * Parking - street parking available in the surrounding blocks * Reservations - available through OpenTable * Online ordering - available on their website for pickup or delivery * Closed Mondays and Tuesdays * Brunch available on Sundays from 9:00 am to 2:45 pm * Rewards system available where you earn 1 point for every $1 spent on food and receive a $10 discount for every 100 points you redeem SERVICE - Our server David was PHENOMENAL! He had a pleasant personality and took great care of us the entire time. Our food came out quickly and our drinks were consistently refilled throughout the meal. The manager even came by at one point to check on us and apologize because it was slightly warm in the restaurant. We were very impressed by the service! PRICING - The total was $64.95 after tax ($4.95) but before tip for the honey sriracha brussels sprouts ($11), honey butter biscuits ($8), Cajun chicken sandwich ($17), Nashville hot chicken sandwich ($16), side of good sauce ($0.50), side of spicy ketchup ($0.50), and small side of truffle mac & cheese ($7). For the portion size and quality of food, I thought the pricing was very reasonable! HONEY SRIRACHA BRUSSELS SPROUTS (7/10) - The honey sriracha flavor was good and not overly spicy but definitely caused the Brussels sprouts to be less crispy. I do love that $1 of every order is donated to the Williamson County Animal Shelter! I'd order these again but I'd love to try other appetizers first. HONEY BUTTER BISCUITS (8/10) - These were really good! They weren't greasy and were slightly on the drier side compared to some biscuits I've had but the overall texture was nice. You could see the lamination and layers and I love the square shape because the corners were a little crispier! We opted to dip them in the honey butter rather than pouring it on top... a little goes a long way! I'd order these again. CAJUN CHICKEN SANDWICH (9/10) - Fantastic sandwich! The brioche bun is super fluffy but stayed together the entire time. The chicken has a great crispy coating and the overall thickness was perfect. I wish it had a little more heat but it's definitely packed with flavor! It comes with a hefty portion of sidewinder fries which were cooked perfectly as well. I'd absolutely order this again! NASHVILLE HOT CHICKEN SANDWICH (8/10) - Another great sandwich (although not spicy)! Just like the Cajun chicken sandwich, the bun is phenomenal and the chicken is flavorful and crispy. The slaw adds a nice element of freshness while the bread and butter pickles add some sweetness. I'd order this one again too! TRUFFLE MAC & CHEESE (8/10) - Great mac & cheese despite the truffle flavor not being super strong. The top few bites were a little dry (although the breadcrumbs on top were crispy and added a great texture) but once you dig into the cup, you get plenty of creamy cheese coating the pasta. I'd order this again. Considering I had never heard of Goodfolks, I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was... honestly, it should be called "Greatfolks"! I'll absolutely be back (I want to try their brunch for sure) and will be recommending it to others! read more

We walked in and immediately was pleasantly surprised with the decor. Honestly, it's a little bit of a vibe, I liked it. They suggest that you make a reservation. I'm assuming this place must be kind of popular. It was around 5 when we arrived and it was a little warm in the dining room. We asked about it and they told us it was an old building. We decided to share the 4 piece chicken meal. It comes with 2 sides and two biscuits and we found it to be pretty filling. The biscuits are good and I ordered a side of honey butter. we decided to go with the mashed potatoes and the honey kale. The kale was not my favorite. The mashed potatoes more than made up for it. We also tried the fried pickles. We were worried since it comes with a sauce with jalapeños in it. We were worried it would be spicy. It wasn't and honestly it was so good we ordered more. At some point, I noticed that other patrons were getting blended drinks. I got jealous and ordered myself one of the peach sangrias.... It was delicious. It was so good. I would come back just for that. We say quietly while we wondered if we should order more chicken or end with dessert. We went with dessert, it was a strawberry cake with a vanilla sauce and ice cream. It was the perfect ending to our meal. I plan to go back and try more the menu. The only issue I had was that I felt the temperature in the restaurant could've been cooler. I will be back to try more of the menu! read more

We decided to make this our early dinner destination at 4 PM on a Tuesday. It was just us and one other customer in the place, so needless to say we had great service. It turns out that happy hour is Monday through Saturday, not W-Sat. We started off with a couple of beers and I got their four piece mixed chicken. I recommend avoiding their curled fries because I've had those same preformed previously frozen fries at other establishments and they taste cheap. They do have a very good drink menu with plenty of cocktails, craft beers and whiskeys, but not much in the way of wine. Their food menu is also quite varied, but not overly complicated and they even brought back some of their former items from the past. My fried chicken came out perfectly cooked and the coleslaw and mashed potatoes were exceptional. The two biscuits were a nice touch, but I did have to ask for butter. We did save room for their strawberry buttermilk cake which was the perfect finish. I like the fact that they drop the bill at the table as opposed to confronting you with a handheld device with those predetermined tips (no credit card fee either). I have to admit they definitely do many things well here which comes as no surprise, especially since the famous Monument Café is a block away as their main competitor. It's a place I'd come back to, just not on a busy Saturday. 10 photos included for more insight. read more

I decided to take a break and grab a bite in Georgetown before tackling some errands around town. I had to wait about 30 minutes, so I decided to explore the area. I came back around 25 minutes later and checked our status, and they just seated us right away. The restaurant is pretty narrow, so there's not much space between the booth and the table. But it's two stories high, so it's not too cramped. The food was pretty good, nothing really special. The chicken was moist, which is always a plus. I've had chicken sandwiches that were dry in the past. The service was okay. The wait staff was busy checking all their tables. They do take reservations if you're interested in trying this place. Just come a bit early on the weekend to find parking. read more
