After a great weekend in Fredericksburg, we find the Barrel House. The southern cuisine on the sign sold it even before we sat down. I'm a big fan of Cajun and creole cooking. We started with the fried boudin balls and gator bites, both were excellent fried to perfection with just a hint spicy bite. I had the chicken fried steak with eggs and hash browns. Steak was tender enough to cut with a fork, and was on point. Cynthia had the breakfast burger which she said was cooked to perfection as well as crispy along the edges. A great meal along with great service which allowed us to get back on the road and headed home with full stomachs. A full stomach and a Dateline podcast made those three hours a little more bearable

When we came in the woman who seated us tried to walk us through what was and wasn't available that day which was poorly presented and left us a bit confused. Asked our server and her description was hard to follow as well. Put in our order and the chips and queso were great. Fish tacos were good as was chicken fried steak and tender plate. My eggs were over cooked and my steak way undercooked for medium rare. Flavor on the steak was great though. Spent most of the meal wishing the server would bring more water.

Besides my husand and I, there was one other party seated in the dining area. We were seated at the table pretty prompt and got our water and that was the extent of the service we got. It took the waitress 10 mins to take our order and another 20 mins to get a drink from the bar that my husband ordered,, why it took so long, no clue as there were only 3 people at the bar. After we placed our orders, 2 other groups came in and were seated and their order was taken almost immediately. Within 15 mins of them ordering, their food arrived and one by one the party that placed their order after us all got their food, while my husband and waited for close to an hour. The excuse we received was there was a glitch in the device used to take the order. How that impacts us not getting our food while others did, go figure. Extremely disappointed in this place and it's service. You have lost a local customer.

The bar has a really cool vibe - old storefront with windows that open to the beer garden. Plenty of outdoor seating, food truck, and live music. We took a peek in the dance hall - smaller than Gruene or Mercer but looks like a fun place for a night out with friends! Definitely check out their upcoming shows to see who is playing (so far most of the music lineups are just for the beer garden). The bathrooms are outside and were clean at first but got dirty quickly. They desperately need to refill the soap dispensers! This is definitely a spot for local and bikers - so expect some smoking and engine noise. But overall a great place to relax under the giant oak tree.
