They also have about a dozen ice cream selections with toppings. [There are other selections, but I only went here for Froyo and Ice Cream.] The owner was on-site and she was very accomodating/helpful. It is difficult to see this shop from 290 since it is a bit set back and in the middle of a small strip center. Turn on George Bush St and go behind the strip center to get the front. Leave on George Bush St as there is a light and 290 is very busy in this area. Manor TX seems to be "happening" with a lot of new shops/an HEB/Home Depot and much more!

My husband and I are seeing if we should make Cafe 290 "Our Spot" since we love diners and it's…read morereasonably close to our house. We've been twice for lunch, but yesterday we spontaneously decided to break routine and go out for breakfast. We're still off of our diets after vacation in Paris, and we both secretly wanted to extend vacation (and indulgent food) one more day before facing work and healthy habits on Monday. Normally we get eggs for breakfast at other diners, but this time we were thinking alike, and decided to get the thing most unlike what we regularly eat - waffles topped with bananas, chocolate chips, and peanut butter, with chicken on the side. Sugar free syrup was an option, thankfully, because I have to reign it in somewhere. The waffle wasn't quite as crispy as I like, but with all those toppings it would be hard for it to be bad! However, the chicken tenders were the surprise hit of the meal! They were moist and the breading was light and crispy. There were quite a few people there on a Sunday morning, and some seemed to be regulars. I'd like to find something on the menu that wows me so that we become regulars too, but so far it's coming in at just satisfactory. Since we don't allow ourselves many treat meals, the calories really have to be worth it to keep coming back. We'll give it a few more tries. Our servers were extremely friendly. I want to love this place! We'll try a few more times and see what the verdict is!

My go-to is The 290 which is two eggs, a choice of meat, and a choice of fries, hash browns, or grits. It also comes with a short stack of fluffy buttermilk pancakes.

Since it's been a while I've had Dutch Bros I didn't want to be that customer who held up the drive thru so I parked and walked up to the window. It was closed and they have placed a shelf on the window which blocks their view if any customers are standing there wanting to order. I was able to get their attention, but I am guessing they do not get a lot of walk up orders. They are plugging the fall drinks and the Banana Cookie Butter just started which looked so good. She said she hadn't tried it yet. My go to is the Cocomo Iced Drink which is expresso, coconut and chocolate milk. I've had Golden Eagle (expresso, caramel & vanilla breve, caramel drizzle) but Cocomo always hits the spot. I always make sure to get oat or coconut milk, and no sugar - which is their sugar substitute option - and very light ice. Drink came out in a few minutes and with the perfect amount of ice and it tasted great - just as I remembered. Very consistent, and I love all the sugar free options Dutch Bros offers. Make sure to get the app to get those rewards. Service here was fast and friendly.

I was pretty disappointed with my experience at 7 Brew in Manor. I ordered three drinks, and…read moreunfortunately, one of my drinks was made incorrectly. What bothered me most was how much attention was placed on the tip screen. The young lady helping us was very energetic and made sure to watch the screen during the tipping process, but that same level of attention didn't seem to carry over to making sure the order was correct. I don't mind tipping for good service, and I regularly do, but when customers are being asked to tip before they even receive their drinks, I think the service and accuracy should match that expectation. If I'm pre-tipping and my drink is still made wrong because the order wasn't carefully followed, that's frustrating. They did give me a free drink card, which I appreciate, but it didn't completely make up for the experience. Hopefully management can remind the staff that getting the customer's order right should be the priority not the tip screen.

Inside you'll find high ceilings, simple dining space and a log cabin feel. In other words, it's nothing really special inside, but they do have 15 taps of craft beer. Their primary focus is on pizza, but they do have salads, sandwiches, and wings. We decided on their large 14 inch pizza which is perfect for two. The pizza and our two beers were reasonably priced and yes, the tip screen will be waiting. This is not the best pizza on the planet, but it is worthy of four stars since it is very good.

The drive thru was hopping, the drinks were coming out at a good pace, and customer names were clearly announced with each drink/food item being placed in the pick up area. There were a decent number of people waiting for their orders, but there was adequate space to keep them from crowding each other. Fortunately I ordered thru the app, so when I walked in, I waited a very short time and grabbed my drink before most customers (probably to their surprise!). That's why you should always use the app! So, overall, this is truly a solid Starbucks location.

Girl all you have to do is ask what kinda donut the customer wants... said she couldn't reimburse me because she needs a manager, then proceeds to refer to herself as the manager. So which is it? Never going to Shipleys in manor again, you're losing all your business to the only other donut establishment in town because of your staff, sad.

Cup sizes range from small cups to gallons, and they even sell 5-gallon jugs for those tea totelers that love their teas. My friend bought a brewed coffee with almond milk. I purchased a small tea - mango fusion, wild raspberry and ginger peach mix. Refreshing and flavorful. My friend said her coffee got better as she drank it.

The teas and coffee were delicious.... The service not so much. I would like to try more flavors but hope for a new set of servers. There is no inside seating and two chairs out front. It appears many folks use the drive thru as it was very active. They also have a happy hour 2-4 PM.
