Local Dining
As of this time, to my knowledge, many of these restaurants have no web sites. However, here are their phone numbers and some comments as to their food.
Blanco Bowling Club Cafe
833-4416
Everything I have eaten here has been great! Caution, only eat here when hungry,
the servings are large. For a country breakfast they open at 6:30. The staff
makes you really feel at home. Tell them Ralph at the Blanco County Inn sent
you.
Blanco Rose Coffee House
833-2888
This is the place to kick back on the weekends. My ears have only heard good
things here. The mornings are filled with the aroma of flavored coffee here.
In addition, they provide wireless Internet for their customers. Should you
want a more relaxing libation they offer beer & wine. The local brew (Real
Ale), with their "Firehouse Pale Ale" on tap, is also available.
In the evenings enjoy the sounds of every thing from a quiet jazz trio, to
a Grateful Dead "tribute band", to the fabulous sounds of Patsy
Thompson and her band. Y'all, come back for their "Blanco Arts &
Music Festival" every year in May.
Casanova's
833-2139
Nice outdoor deck/patio with very friendly staff. Killer burgers, and B-B-Q
that is so tender it falls apart on your plate. They open at 6:00 in the morning,
serving breakfast tacos, & a great weekend breakfast. Tell them Ralph
at the Blanco County Inn sent you.
CJ's Food Plaza
833-4712
I have eaten their pizza, and it is good. They sell it by the slice or whole.
Their pizza's come in three sizes, from personal to large. They also have
a grill & deep fryer for short orders. Everyone here is very friendly,
you feel as though they have known you forever.
Dairy Queen
833-4230
What can I say...it is Dairy Queen. The folks are fast and courteous.
The
Deutsch Apple
833-2882
This place has been written up in Texas Monthly and a number of other publications
for good reason. When we first moved to Blanco we were given one of their
Apple Cake Loaves as a present. My wife, poor thing, never got to try it.
Once I started eating it I couldn't stop. We have since eaten both their apple
and pecan pies which are also fantastic. (Try to save a little for the family
if you can)
Little Mexican Restaurant
833-4645
Gnarly breakfast tacos! This place opens at 7:00 am. They have many items
from Mexico as well as other curios for sale.

Opening Soon - They will be back with their famous Fried Chicken! ooh so good!
They also will have a breakfast bakery with a number of deliteful items.
Oso's

I have eaten here and their fare is wonderful. Try the "Snicker-Doodle"
cookies, along with the rest of their baked goods. (Careful the cookies are
habit forming)

The pork loin was sent here from heaven. Primo B-B-Q!

About one mile south of the FM 306 turn off to Canyon Lake
(11 miles south of the Old Blanco Courthouse) is this little gem. They have

your self at this hill country bit of heaven.
