I tried an omelette which you can build yourself. It came out pretty fast and tasted good. Side of salsa helped by adding extra flavour. Chicken fried chicken was moist and had good amount of crunchy texture. Many items are on the fried side. Pricing: $$ - standard prices for breakfast and lunch options.

Minus one star for cleanliness. Read on…read more Very good breakfast. Popular! Tons of people. We only had about a 20 minute wait at 9am-ish on Mother's Day. That's fine because it allowed us a bit of time to check out downtown Bastrop. Once seated, service was American cafe classic. Very friendly and full of memorabilia on the walls and decore. The evening cleaning crew left us an upside down dead . . . Yup, you guessed it. We told the server, they might want to clean it up before seating the next guest at that table. Rule of restaurant opening is to sweep before the doors are opened. We will probably be back because it's still a great place for breakfast. CritDicks

We have been visiting Schlotzkis restaurant in Bastrop off and on for over 10 years and usually…read moreit's a good dining experience, but this past Saturday we went there for dinner and were very disappointed. what we noticed first was it was not busy at all, which usually means you will get even better service. unfortunately, that was not the case. We also noticed that the owner (Luke?) was not there and there was a noticeable difference in the level of service. we ordered 2 kids cheese pizzas, but were then told there was no pizza dough. we were told they would use an alternative bread, but when the food came, it was 2 grilled cheese sandwiches. next, my wife ordered a salad but it arrived with no bread, so she had to go back to the counter to ask for bread. then, she discovered there was no tomato. when she asked if the salad comes with tomato, she was quickly told "no", but when checking the online menu and the menu behind the counter, it clearly says that the salad includes tomato. the workers seemed bored and unconcerned with providing good customer service. some of them were hanging out in the dining area and did not seem to like being bothered. very disappointing! all I can hope for, is that the owner/manager reads these comments and takes steps on improving service, especially when he's not there. the food (and service) have been good in the past. we would like to continue to visit Schlotzkis in the future, but for now, we will dine elsewhere unless there is a positive response to this review. fingers crossed! if I knew how to contact the owner directly, I would not leave a negative review on social media.

When both arrived to my table, the sandwich looked amazing and the taste was just as good as it looked! Loved the service and loved the food! Will cone back to try other options!

The meat was nicely seasoned, the lettuce/tomatoes/pickles were good quality, and toasted sesame seed bun was tasty. The aioli sauce that came with it is a nice add (better than ketchup)! The rosemary parmesan had a delicious flavor but they were too soggy for my liking. I prefer crispy fries.

Local Bastropian here. Before I start this review, I'm not…read moresure Coffee Dog deserves an objective 5 star review, but I have found the recent renovations, coffee roasts, and overall management to be a huge step up from before. I love a good light roast coffee. They have the most fun notes, flavors, caffeine. Needless to say, I've struggled with the options in Bastrop for a while... Tracy's sources a two solid medium roasts from Progress that's decently fun and flavorful... Texas Coffee Works hasn't really blown my socks of yet either... All that to be said, I'm still on the hunt for the best local Light roast. To my surprise (previous owner's coffee was not it...) Coffee Dog recently started selling a really good "Zombie Defense Serum" roast (dorky, kina funny name, but with an unfortunate AI art generated sticker)... It's delicious! Has a good acidity, it's fairly bright, and there's some fun notes in it. I wish I knew what day it was roasted (the 2 week carbon release rule), but I do think it was fresh and hadn't had the chance to release all of its carbon. I'd be interested to see what it tastes like in peak form. Give the ole Zombie Serum a try and support local. Even if they use AI art for their coffee bag designs...

I did not see the little Scoops banner hanging on the bottom of the Coffee Dog banner so it's really confusing whether they are now Scoops, or coffee dog, or both. When I walked up, a gentleman told me they had most of the drinks but just some of the food that was on the menu and I didn't really understand why but when he suggested the avocado chicken salad I got that. I had mentioned that I wanted a salad and I thought that's what I was getting. But it turned out to be one ice cream scoop of chicken salad on top of a bunch of middle parts of Romain lettuce that were pretty yellow. The chicken salad was spicy because it had jalapeños in it and I was unable to finish it. As far as the drink, it tasted great, but I specifically asked the woman taking my order what they had to drink with no caffeine. She suggested the Arnold Palmer raspberry and since I wasn't sure what that was I said that sounded great. But being caffeine intolerant, after the first big swig of my drink, I immediately knew it had caffeine and then confirmed it by googling it. So I was stuck with very little salad, chicken salad that was too spicy for me and a drink I could not drink. I probably should've said something but I knew I would never be back, so it didn't really matter. The employees were friendly enough, but obviously not knowledgeable. I sure hope they get this "transition" straightened out, or whatever it is, because if not they will continue losing business.

"STEAKHOUSE GARLIC RIBEYE SANDWICH" ROCKS -…read more On our return home from our Cruise, we stopped in Bastrop at Arby's (711 TX-71) for a bite to eat (as if we didn't eat enough on the cruise). They are advertising a new "Ribeye Steak" Sandwich and that's what we both ordered, 1-Combo & 1-Sandwich only (we share). Carmen took our order and soon it was ready. Arbys calls with the "Steakhouse Garlic Ribeye Sandwich"; Ribeye Steak, Big Eye Swiss Cheese, Crispy Onion Strings. Garlic Aloll Spread on a Toasted Bun - and it is just that. Arby says; "We Have The Meats", but now their Meats are on Our Sandwiches and there is a Lot of Meats on this Huge Tasty Ribeye Sandwich. My Wife and I both LOVE this Sandwich. Very Tenderliciously Tasty with just the right amount of Cheese and Spread makes it One Great Combination. Their Curley Fries are also Very Crisp with just the right Crunch. We don't have an Arby's in San Angelo and have been informing Arby's about that for some time now. So, Arby's, if you are seeing this - We Need An Arby's In San Angelo, Texas - PLEASE. Check one out near you and you will enjoy whatever Sandwich you order and please tell them to get an Arby's in San Angelo, Texas so my Wife and I can enjoy one near us. My Baby and I continued on the way home in San Angelo, Texas, where there are No Arby's for us to enjoy. How Sad --- (hint-hint-hint)
