We really enjoy their pimento cheese, housemade crackers and whipped candied jalepeno dip, the chicharonnes and queso and the great big salads. But oh, the Rebellion Nachos.....I see you sexy nachos over there with all of the hotness.....You simply must sub the Akaushi Tenderloin on the nachos. Thank me later. We normally have cocktails and snacks at the bar and then we order our entrees to take up to the room to enjoy. The service is always top notch here.

I am a guest at the hotel, and unfortunately, the service I experienced in the café and poolside…read morearea on August 21 was extremely disappointing. After helping our daughter move for school, we returned to the hotel exhausted. We had already had an early dinner, so we decided to have a drink and order a light appetizer and dessert poolside. The bar was crowded, and although three different servers came through the pool area, not one stopped at our table to ask whether we needed menus or anything else. We eventually had to flag someone down ourselves. Unfortunately, that interaction seemed to set the tone for the remainder of the evening. The staff we encountered were consistently unwelcoming and inattentive. It gave the impression that they were simply there to complete their shift rather than provide the level of hospitality guests should reasonably expect. The atmosphere was also frustrating. A toddler was repeatedly screaming at the top of her lungs while a musician was performing, and the child's father made no apparent effort to address the situation. While that is not necessarily the hotel's responsibility, the combination of the disruptive environment and poor service made for a particularly unpleasant experience. The situation became even more frustrating when we accidentally left my arm brace on the table as we hurried to finish our nightcap and leave. Within approximately five minutes of realizing it was missing, my husband returned to retrieve it. Since it had been left on the table moments earlier, we expected that the server or another staff member would be able to locate it easily. Instead, he was sent from the bar to the kitchen and then to the front desk. After approximately 15 minutes, he returned without the item. That experience reinforced the impression I had already formed earlier in the day: there appears to be very little communication or coordination among the staff. No one seemed to take ownership of a simple guest-service issue or make an effort to resolve it efficiently. When guests are paying nearly $600 for two nights in a small town such as Nacogdoches, particularly at a property marketed as one of the best accommodations in the area, there is an expectation of professional, attentive hospitality. Guests should feel welcomed, recognized, and valued. Unfortunately, I did not experience that during my stay. The attitude of the waitress who ultimately served us was particularly disappointing and significantly affected the overall experience. Her demeanor was not appropriate for someone working in a customer-service position, much less one at a property presenting itself as a higher-end accommodation. I strongly recommend that management take a closer look at staff training, communication, accountability, and expectations surrounding guest service. Tipping is part of the hospitality industry, and guests should not have to repeatedly seek out employees for basic service. Based on this experience, I will not be staying here again. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and uses it as an opportunity to improve the guest experience for future visitors.

This is a small, quaint and comfortable restaurant. Our server was on top of everything and had a great sense of humor. Common dishes were changed up a bit and elevated, but remained true to the original. We tried the deep fried meatloaf with two sides: mashed potatoes and a salad with homemade ranch dressing. The dressing had a hint of dill and was thicker than most ranch dressings I have tried in the past. But it was very good. The meatloaf batter was crunchy on the outside and the meatloaf was moist and flavorful on the inside. The others ordered the chicken fingers with homemade white cream gravy (yum). The same batter as the meatloaf and the chicken was hot and moist. One person got the Croque Madame (cheese, ham topped with a fried egg) - her favorite. And stop the press for the Banana Pudding Fried Pie ... it is like a banana cream pie on steroids! Get one to share with your dining mates, you will not regret it!

Normally we don't visit establishments with under 4 stars but the pictures seemed to speak for themselves! I could not be happier that we gave this little local place a chance. We arrived right at 10:00 am, after the breakfast crowd but it was still pretty busy. Immediately upon walking in the door, we were greeted with a smile and directed to a little corner table. Our server came right over and got our drink order. When she returned with the drinks we placed our order and I went to wash my hands. When I came back, the order was already on the table!! I had the two egg breakfast with extra crispy bacon and they were both cooked to perfection! I also opted to upgrade the two pancakes to strawberry pancakes. I should have gotten a picture! Covered in strawberries and cream, the obviously from scratch pancakes were to die for!! But let me back up and talk about the eggs. Most restaurants these days use med eggs...on a good day. These eggs were SO big! Hubby ordered his over easy. They had to be jumbo eggs! They were so incredibly yummy! Oh but let's not forget the tea! We often drink unsweet tea when we are out and it's rather astonishing how few places actually have really great tea. This place however, just amazing!! We opted to have a cup to go also! But just as important as the food, or maybe more so, is the service. Hands down the best service we have experienced in a very long time!! If you're on the fence about this place, I urge you to give it a try. I promise you'll be happy that you did!! Oh and don't forget to pick up a cross on your way out!

My family and I went to Roost last weekend, and unfortunately, we were really disappointed with…read moreboth the food and the service. We started by ordering a cinnamon roll for the table, but we never received it despite asking about it multiple times. It finally came out after all of our meals had already been served. Our waitress even told us, "This has been ready, but they asked me to do something else and I forgot to bring it out." Everyone ordered breakfast except my husband, who ordered a burger. He said his burger was fine, but the rest of us had issues with our food. My brother-in-law's eggs were essentially raw--the whites were still completely uncooked. It was bad enough that he lost his appetite and didn't want to eat anything else. I ordered scrambled eggs that were runny, my bacon was overcooked, and while my pancakes were okay, they were pretty tough. The most concerning part of our experience, though, was my husband's drink. He ordered a peach Bellini thinking it was some type of peach smoothie or specialty drink. I understand that Bellinis are traditionally alcoholic, but in our defense, there was nothing indicating that this particular drink contained alcohol, and none of us even realized this deli served alcohol. The employee at the front also never asked for his ID or mentioned that it was an alcoholic beverage. My husband let me take a sip, and I immediately realized there was alcohol in it. I am seven months pregnant, so thankfully I only took that one sip. My brother-in-law is also in recovery and almost tried it as well, which made the situation even more upsetting. My husband explained that he had no idea the Bellini contained alcohol, and they did refund the drink, which I appreciated and is the reason I'm giving two stars instead of one. Overall, we were extremely disappointed. Between the forgotten cinnamon roll, poorly cooked food, and especially the confusion surrounding the alcoholic drink, I unfortunately would not recommend this place based on our experience.

Callaways Coffee and Bistro popped up as a little house with adorable photos and lovely reviews and off we went. It was perfect. They have REAL FOOD here. I tried to reproduce the menu, but seriously they have pages of breakfast, salads and sandwiches. And COFFEE, of course. I had this amazing 100% Angus patty Cheeseburger - an enormous perfectly cooked patty. ($9.95) My husband ordered the Ragun Cajun, a spicy Chicken breast on ciabatta that he loved. ($9.95) They still had pie, blondies, cookies and assorted yummy sweet treats under glass. I had the Buttermilk pie with a Tender crust and totally delicious filling! ($2.75) Our server was a terrific young man; personable, helpful and a good cook! We had a good time. The bathroom is Unisex and clean. There is plenty of seating. We sat at a regular dining table, but there are plenty of tables for two or three in addition to chairs and sofas. Most parking is street side. I'm looking forward to coming back!
