The Root Cellar Cafe

The location is great, along with adequate parking offered. It offers a quaint atmosphere, indoor booth and open space table seating along with an outdoor porch table offered. We really enjoyed the spinach and artichoke dip, the chorizo grits with shrimp were okay - rather greasy but I suppose that’s typical with chorizo. A lot of the grease was puddled on the top of the dish. The eggs over medium were extremely over cooked and chewy so I would recommend adjusting heat temp to avoid this in the future. The gluten free French toast was pretty good — I was extremely happy that they offered gluten free options and several different types of menu items to accommodate various allergies. There weren’t a ton of vegetable or fruit options however. I wouldn’t consider the food something to call home about, but it’s a gluten free quaint little spot with a good location so, I would say it’s convenient and can accommodate various preferences. The coffee was not organic, it was mediocre as far as flavor profile goes, although they did offer Oat Milk for the coffee and organic raw sugars which not all places offer.

This place is amazing and has the best atmosphere and food. This was our first time and we will definitely be coming back. The Brazilian French toast was amazing. I highly suggest it. The outdoor waiting area is the best. Enjoying the birds chirping and nice breeze while waiting to be seated you can enjoy a coffee or mimosa.

Visited on Wedesday evening around 7pm and it was not very busy. Quickly seated and drink orders were taken. Menu items were varied but not overwhelming. We had the seared salmon, chicken and waffles, chicken fried steak and shoestring chicken. Several items came with mashed potatoes which were a big hit as well. It took a little while for the food to come out but when it did, the presentation was good, food temp was good and the items were tasty.

Was out in new Braunfels for an event and was looking for a breakfast spot. We had to order take out because we were short on time. This place popped up in my search and had decent reviews so we gave it a try. The chicken and waffle was good and I was kinda skeptical on eggs but they tasted good. The potatoes were good as well. We got there before there was a crowd so it took about 15-20 mins to get food. Crowd started to show up as we were leaving. Everyone was friendly that worked here.

We actually came here twice, for breakfast and for lunch. The chips and salsa were okay. But the chicken sandwich and shrimp pesto parmesan dish were very good and we definitely recommend them. Breakfast was very good, as well. The chicken and waffles and chicken biscuit sandwich were on point. It is worth trying out.
