    Bud's Salad (big and beefy)
    Lowell O.

    This time I ordered Bud's salad. It allowed me to feel good about ordering a salad, while delighting me with what must have been eight ounces of beef tenderloin (perfectly cooked), a couple of slices of bacon and a healthy dose of blue cheese. The service was great. And the place is as ecclectic and dimly lit as ever. It's a happenin' place. They served more people during the lunch rush than the number of people who live in Round Top.

    Lemon Blueberry Pie - Slice
    Jessica M.

    My mom and I stopped in to get some desserts to go. The place was cute. They had plenty of pies to choose from. We were excited to pick some and take them home to my stepdad and share them all. We got the lemon blueberry which was everyone's favorite. The apple pie, I feel like the apples needed to be cooked a tad longer and we got the bread pudding. We were so disappointed we didn't check the bag beforehand because the menu said it came with a bourbon sauce and there was no sauce included so the bread pudding was really dry. I think it could've been really good with the sauce. The service was ok, a small wait to order and like I said missing our sauce. I'm sure we would go back. My mom lives in Round Top and I know my step dad wanted to try their cinnamon roll next!

    Nashville shrimp tacos- savory but not overly spicy!!

    Vivian made our lunch at Royers Cafe in Round Top an absolutely wonderful experience! Her recommendation to try the Nashville shrimp tacos was perfect--they were flavorful with just the right amount of spice. For dessert, Vivian suggested her two favorite pies: the sweet & salty pie and the lemon blueberry pie. Both were incredible--we couldn't get enough! Despite being the only one serving, Vivian was attentive, kind, and made sure we had everything we needed. She truly made our visit special!

    Cheese Grits so good

    If you have been to Round Top, I'm sure everyone has heard about this place. Iconic restaurant. From the moment you wanked into, you feel like you time-traveled. Good vibe, good food, good service. We shared the big table with other guests and we talked, laughed and had a blast.

    Another great meal at Royers. Made it to lunch on Thursday for the pork tender, fried green tomatoes, and cherry pie, not too sweet, with bluebell and my husband had the apple. I have reviewed in the past. Fun food, Angus pasta, pork tender, even the seafood here is thoughtful twist and fun atmosphere. Whatever you do Slow Down in these places, there can be aLOT of people come through during events. This is not fast food and there is limited seating. Go to their FB page and they do offer some choices for seatings during busy times. Thank you guys for another great meal.

    March 25, 2023 Todd waited on me at the pie bar, he helped me choose my pie. I decided on the sweet & salty - a chocolate caramel fudge cake that tasted like a brownie; so good. Todd went out of his way to accommodate me with a small bag of ice so the pie could last until late evening. The restaurant was full and only taking reservations for the day Support small business

    Just ate at Royer's last night. Our overall experience was excellent!! Great food, ambiance and service! Gotta have a slice of pie before you leave! Tip: Make a reservation.

You place your order and then take a seat and when they bring out your food, you get a little pocket to put cash into to pay whatever you want. The food was great and it benefits addiction recovery. My only complaint is that they really really really need to put fans on the patio cause I was swatting away flies the entire time I was eating. I wouldn't eat outside again. I went for breakfast and had a 3-meat omlette which I actually couldn't even finish cause I was full. It was a little weird getting the apple juice in a cup full of ice but I guess I could have gotten more if I wanted it. I'd like to back for lunch sometime.

My answer would be hell nah and I would rather eat at the worst restaurant I've ever ate at in my life than eat at Trump Burger again. Or even eat my own dog's poopoo would be better than eating at such a big beautiful establishment. But with some thinking I decided to only go for the Roland's Deportation with NO KINGS combo meal and an ICE tea which is by far the best meal on the menu and the greatest combo meal found anywhere in the world to enjoy for limited time before they close up shop. The service was a bit rude there but at least the combo meal was good enough to enjoy before seeing Trump supporters throw ketchup all over the walls with some confusion about the owner's deportation and claiming the immigration system is rigged against the owner and that the ANTIFA Democrats are just out to get him.

This is a small town BBQ spot so I for sure was impressed with how many folks were inside dining and how many cars the lot could hold. It was a Saturday afternoon and everyone had tables full of delicious barbecue that we passed in front of as we got sat by the friendly staff. We loved the moist brisket sandwich, fall off the bone pork ribs, plus Later on we ordered 1lb of their jalapeno cheddar sausage to go and had it the very next day while back at home in Austin. The sausage was so juicy and succulent that we didn't regret having leftovers for even another meal - morning breakfast with egg - the next day. Portions were large and there was plenty of food to bring back home with us to enjoy later. Great and wonderful and attentive staff is what makes this spot even that more enjoyable.
