    While in the area I stumbled upon Barrio Barista when I was looking for a spot to get some work…read moredone and hang out with my Mom for a coffee. Yelp steered me right and brought me here on a Thursday morning. Walking in I wasn't sure if this was only a coffee/tea spot or if they sold cocktails and beers too. The bar area and decor lends itself to look like an old bar and it has great vibes! No beer or cocktails here but they do have a seemingly delicious menu! We didn't eat anything while we were here because we had breakfast prior to coming in. The menu had an array of offerings and sandwiches that I could see myself coming back and trying in the future. I ordered a Mexican Mocha and my mom had a cold brew. Service was fast and friendly. We found a nice spot close to the windows and I was able to look around at all the relics around and displayed at the front entrance. After we got our drinks, one of the owners or managers, walked around offering delicious slices of lemon frost cake. I was so appreciative that this just made our delicious coffee even better! I saw many students and other folks reading and studying while we were here. The atmosphere lends itself to do so too as it is chill, quiet, and quaint. I will definitely be back again. This spot was super unique and I really love their smart branding and logos/brand identity.

    Came in for a late brunch on a Sunday and we were able to snag a table even with having a baby in a…read morestroller. Service was nice! Apparently the kitchen was short staffed so instead of ordering a breakfast item we ordered a couple of paninis. The food took some time to come out but again, they were short staffed and it's Sunday brunch , there's gonna be a wait and that's fine! When we did get our food we both really enjoyed our paninis! The Green Belt Melt was delicious and not over stuffed, the bread was in my opinion the best part though. Really tasty and crunchy! The inside of the place was also super warm but the building itself is an old house, like a very old house, so again what can you expect? Overall we'd definitely come back but hopefully get a table downstairs and go earlier in the day when it isn't as hot.

    What an amazing meal!…read more My fiancé and I swung by for lunch on our way to the Witte and we're so glad that we did. The interior of this place was so unique, the staff were welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious. Naturally we had to sit in the upstairs dining area just for the novelty of it, and while we didn't have to wait too long for our meal, we had fun playing the trivia card game that was on each table. I ordered the Parmo Pollo Panini with Tomato Basil Soup. The chicken in the Panini was a little dry, but coupled with the Tomato Basil Soup I could hardly tell. While they were delicious together, both were just as tasty on their own. The Panini was a good hearty sandwich, and the Tomato Basil Soup was packed full with delicious spices. I ended up taking up half of both the Soup and Panini to go as the portions were so large. I'm glad we went at the start of lunch rush as it was packed by the time we left. I'd highly recommend W D if you're after a satisfying meal!

    Was looking for a BBQ place near enough to walk to from our hotel and Pinkerton's came up while…read moresearching. Some say it is marketed for tourists, but I thought the food was pretty good, as did the others I dined with. Meals here are a la carte, picking out meat and sides separately. I got turkey and wanted to try both the potato salad and cheesy rice. Word to the wise, even small sides give you plenty, so unless you're sharing or saving for later, a small is plenty. I loved the turkey and the sauce was fantastic. They also had Big Red in a bottle! I know it's probably not that big of a deal to those who have this all the time, but I rarely get Big Red at all, much less in a bottle, where I'm from The seating space was nice, I like the kitsch of the picnic table style. It also gave our group of 5 plenty of space to sit together. I would definitely recommend a stop by Pinkerton's in San Antonio.

    In my Texas barbecue journey, I've been trying to make more trips to Houston to get to places like…read morePinkerton's that are on the Top 50 list. That has yet to happen, but luckily there's a secondary location in San Antonio that I got a chance to try this past weekend. Pinkerton's is in the heart of downtown San Antonio, just a few blocks off the River Walk and right next to the Frost Bank Tower. As I parked in a lot off Travis Street (they validate two hours' worth of parking btw), I met up with my dad inside, who was drooling at the possibility of getting a beef rib. That's really the only thing I haven't explored deeply in the barbecue journey, but I wasn't gonna stop his desires. Inside, Pinkerton's has plenty of space, with tons of wooden tables and benches, and a full bar. They operate from 11 am to 9 pm most days, so they have enough meat to last them well into the evening. We got there about 1 pm, and though there was no immediate line, it was busy. The line kinda came in waves. It seemed like multiple groups would all show up at once and wrap around the building every 15 minutes or so. I'll list everything we had and my thoughts: Brisket: One thing about Pinkerton's that is different than elsewhere is how peppery all of their meats are. It's different than everything else I've had on my journey, but I'm a fan. The brisket was pretty good. Nothing extraordinary, but quite solid. Pork Ribs: The glaze they throw on top of the pork ribs makes it special. They are sweet and super flavorful. It's just a good, classic pork rib altogether. Jalapeño Cheddar Sausage: Pinkerton's has like six different sausage options, which is far too many in my opinion. Sausage peaks at three. Regular, jalapeño, and one special, if even. This was the only "bad" thing that I had here. It was just unmemorable and tasted bland. Beef Ribs: I've never had a beef rib, so I don't know what I should've expected, but good God almighty, that thing is truly a delight to the senses. The peppery bark and the savory beef are incredible. I've been missing out. South Texas Beans: Their beans are sensational. I don't know if I've had beans as good as the beans here at Pinkerton's. There was such a savory flavor to them that my dad and I couldn't quite put our finger on, but they felt familiar and comforting. Jalapeño Cheese Rice: Kinda tasted like a baked potato casserole, just lacking the starchiness, obviously. The rice mushing and sticking together gave it a very similar texture and flavor though. Ultimately, this is a great spot. It doesn't hit the highs of the true Texas Monthly spots here in San Antonio, but it's still a worthy establishment. This was a great feast for my dad and me to celebrate his birthday a bit early. RIYL: Barbecue with a little bit of a kick
