Hands down best coffee in Bastrop. They have a wonderful staff who are great to chat with as they…read moremake your coffee or espresso drink to order. And the place is a time machine, rolling back the decades. Little has changed here in the past three quarters of a century, which makes it very charming. They have farm-fresh eggs, locally-grown salad greens, sausage, cheese, breakfast tacos, baked-from-scratch pop tarts, Texas pretzel bread and other items in this small store, without feeling crowded. At the coffee bar, I had a cortado (Spain's take on a cappuccino -- equal parts espresso and steamed milk) along with a little chocolate truffle. We also picked up some Opa Klein's amazing summer sausage and a six pack of Stash IPA to go. We're coffee snobs. We'll be back for the best cuppa joe in town, at a minimum. Special thanks to Mike K (one of Tracy's baristas) for telling us about this place as he serenaded us during brunch at downtown restaurant. He's a very talented guy, and very proud to be associated with this quaint and historic Bastrop fixture. You know you're doing something right as a business owner when your staff naturally delivers your best and most effective marketing, just from the sheer enthusiasm and pride of working there. So, yeah, it's a tiny little time warp, but it's well run and worth coming to, especially if you're into great coffee.

My friend works as an engineer at SpaceX, and I've always been curious and wanted to do the tour…read more Unfortunately, they require 72 hours' notice to get approved for a pass. Since it was my last day in town and I was headed to the airport later, we didn't have enough time to arrange it. Instead, he suggested taking me to Boring Bodega, which is located literally across the street from the SpaceX Bastrop Facility, so at least I could snap a few photos from there. I was seriously confused at first because pulling up to Boring Bodega feels a little like stumbling into a pop-up oasis in the middle of rural Texas. This place looks more like the entrance to a country fair than a cafe. Off to the side, a row of food trucks greets you like an informal welcome committee, their colorful signs and picnic tables giving the place a casual, anything-goes vibe. Lol. Then you walk inside... and suddenly it makes sense. Boring Bodega is a unique "future fancy" grocery store and community hub located in the heart of Hyperloop Plaza. Owned by Elon Musk's Boring Company, the place blends like a full-service market with a modern, tech-forward aesthetic. Think Silicon Valley startup energy meets Texas roadside market. Walking aisle to aisle, you realize this place has a little bit of everything going on. One section feels like a boutique grocery market, stocked with high quality snacks, pantry staples, and grab and go foods. Another aisle carries drinks of every kind like sodas, energy drinks, sparkling waters plus a massive beer and wine selection. They even have shelves dedicated to pet food and pet supplies, which makes sense because people seem to hang out here for a while. Toward the back you'll find a his & hers barber shop, which caught me completely off guard in what I initially thought was just a convenience store. There are also spaces designed for community hangouts and games, and outside you'll spot pickleball courts, making it feel less like a store and more like a social hub for the surrounding tech campus. My friend also mentioned something pretty cool. Apparently, there's a tunnel employees can take from inside SpaceX that connects underground to Hyperloop Plaza, so employees there can pop over here without even going outside. Not sure if that's insider privilege or just peak Elon-universe infrastructure, but it definitely adds to the whole futuristic vibe of the place. And yes--they also do made to order sandwiches and light cafe items. Since it was my last day before heading to the airport, my friend and I grabbed a quick lunch here. I ordered the $10 Falafel Veggie Pita and my friend went with the $13 Carne Asada Protein Bowl. The portions were massive and the quality was fresh. Overall, Boring Bodega is one of those places that defies easy categorization. It's part grocery store, part cafe, part hangout, and part tech campus convenience hub all sitting across the street from SpaceX in Bastrop.

There were a lot of people there, but it did not seem crowded in any way. They waited on us when we first walked in and the service was excellent the entire time we were there. We got a free entrée and a free drink and it was a total coincidence when my friend and I both ordered the strawberry croissant French toast and a mimosa. My cranberry mimosa was really good and we did not have a long wait for our food. I loved the croissant French toast and next time I will be sure and order some of the extra cream they drizzle on top. I think the Toasted Yolk is a welcome and much needed addition for breakfast and brunch in the Bastrop area! Welcome to town! And thanks for breakfast!

This time, I specifically called the restaurant five times before placing my order to make sure they didn't forget the elote sauce. I told the lady who answered that I wanted the sauce on the side and extra, and she assured me she would take care of it as soon as I placed the order. I followed her instructions exactly. When the order arrived, not only was there no sauce on the side, but there was no sauce on the corn at all. Let's be clear: I don't eat elote without the sauce -- it's like eating a taco with no salsa. To make things worse, I ordered a large corn, and was really looking forward to it. I called back to politely address the issue, and instead of acknowledging the mistake, she kept insisting that she did add the sauce -- but she absolutely didn't. I'm very disappointed and upset. I was clear multiple times, and I've been a regular customer. Sadly, this experience has completely turned me away. They just lost a loyal customer.

For a town celebrated for its charm, I expected this bakery to embody the same warmth…read more As a first-time visitor and tourist, I naturally had questions about the bakery's history and the pastries they're known for. The woman who appeared to be the bakery manager, working around 8:15 a.m., answered every question with an attitude that felt forced, dismissive, and unwelcoming. When someone says, "This is my first time here," it's usually an opportunity to create a memorable experience--not make them feel like they're interrupting your morning. I won't be rating the bakery's famous pigs in a blanket because, to me, hospitality is part of the product. Outstanding customer service can elevate good food to a great experience. Without it, even the town's signature pastry loses some of its appeal.
