Rory MacEwanJune 11, 2012Driskill WiFi is patchy on the inside of the cafe. Sit at the tables in the lobby for a better connection.
Stephanie DanforthJuly 16, 2011This place is a very nice area to just go sit. Try a chocolate croissant and enjoy!
Alex ParrishAugust 23, 2010Is it just me or is their cheese soup and their queso the same thing? Hmm, either way it's delicious, and a gorgeous place.
Adam KubanMarch 10, 2013Adding my voice to the chorus of Hangover Burger boosters. I honestly wasn't expecting much, but it was good.
- Try the texas pecan waffle for breakfast or brunch, absolutely amazing
Make sure to start with one of are huge cinnomin rolls. Bigg enough to share
- Must try the huckelberry hooch made with red berry ciroc to die for
mathew murphyJuly 12, 2014Closed summer 2014 for refurbishment. They're serving brunch in the restaurant though.
- Almond french+$4 mimosas +$5 bloody marry's = best brunch on 6th street
Steve PoleMarch 13, 2012Vanilla milkshake is blowing my mind, think I might need to order a second...
Dena FloridaMarch 13, 2011Don't come here if you're starving during sxsw. Service is slow but menu is awesome
Josh MartinSeptember 21, 2019Long wait, terrible service, very underwhelming food (I had pecan waffle and fried chicken) I don’t get the positive reviews at all.
