Best bar and grill in San Marcos, Texas (TX) 2024

Enjoyed lunch with a group of friends on a Friday. Parking is modest but was adequate when we were there.. you may find it crowded during weekends. We enjoyed the variety of choices for seating.... inside with air conditioning ...or on the air conditioned deck... or on the open air deck which overlooks the swimming area below. I enjoyed their chicken fried steak plate which was a generous portion with real mashed potatoes and savory green beans. The steak itself was reasonably tender ...if not fork tender. Other diners enjoyed the mushroom-onion- swiss burger with fries, very tasty, and the Friday special catfish plate. Also, three of us drank a Bloody Mary (one found the house-made Bloody Mary mix too spicy). An appetizer of fried mushrooms was a tasty starter, as well. Service was prompt and efficient, and prices are reasonable if not inexpensive. Overall, for a nice place to enjoy a beverage of your choice, some good food, and overlook the swimming area, this is a great choice. Kid-friendliness: Casual setting overlooking the springs will charm the young ones, but this is an adult venue with adult beverages as well. Parking: Modest size lot means you may need to search a bit. ~Mark
