Dine-In FAQs

Do you offer curbside takeout?

Yes, we continue to offer curbside takeout.  We have designated curbside parking spaces in our parking lot near the alley behind the restaurant and Birdie's Market.  Look for the curbside signs.

We will not have servers monitoring the parking lot to take drive up orders - you must call to place your order. Please call 830.693.2344 or 830.693.2444 in advance to place your order.  When you arrive, please call to let us know you're here.  We will ask you what parking space number you are in, which is indicated on the parking sign, and how you will pay.  We will send someone out with your food.  They will also be your cashier. We accept cash and credit/debit card.  Our card readers also accept contactless payments like ApplePay.

Why is the first pie preorder pickup time noon?

In addition to our pies, we make all of our biscuits, cinnamon rolls, donuts, yeast rolls, and cornbread from scratch each day. Noon is our first preorder pickup time because that’s when our fresh pies are ready and we have the full selection of flavors. There may be pies available before noon, but they will be what is left from the day before, and we may not have every flavor available. You are always welcome to come before noon and pick from what is available in the pie case. You can also call from curbside to ask about availability.

How many people can dine-in right now?

We are operating at 100% capacity. We have installed 6ft. tall booth partitions to provide a barrier between diners and provided space between tables. 

Where can I sit if I dine-in?

We are using all of our dining rooms for seating, including the counter. We do not offer outdoor seating.

How long is the wait?

If we reach capacity, a line will begin in the hallway and out the door. Most parties will be seated within 15-20 minutes, even when the line is outside. Larger parties may find the wait longer, depending on how busy we are.

A host attends the line and takes your name and party size. Once a table is available, a host will alert you and guide your seat. We ask that all members of your party be present before we seat you.

Can I make a reservation?

We do not accept reservations. Our seating is always first-come, first-served. However, we do appreciate a heads up if your large group is headed our way.

Are you serving your full menu?

We are offering our complete menu. This includes breakfast all day, daily specials, and daily soups. We also offer all of our pie flavors.

What are you doing to keep dine-in safe?

 Cleanliness and sanitation have always been our strong suits, and now we are even more vigilant.

All employees have been trained on proper hand washing and are certified food handlers.

We have hand-sanitizer readily available throughout the restaurant.

You may also view our menu electronically, by clicking here.  

All meals will be served on our regular plates and dishes with silverware.  We use a high-temperature, professional dishwasher to disenfect all of our dishes, cups, and silverware.  We are happy to provide plastic cutlery or disposable cups instead, if requested. 

Tabletops, table sides, seat bottoms, and seat backs are wiped and cleaned with a disposable towel that is soaked in a hospital-grade disinfecting solution.  We also have a designated employee for each shift that routinely disenfects high-touch surfaces like door handles.

The bathrooms are cleaned regularly and have touchless soap and towel dispensers.

How do I pay my bill?

All of our servers will be your cashier at your table.  We prefer not to have lines formed at the cash register to pay. When the server presents you with your guest check, please let them know how you will be paying - cash or credit/debit card.  Our card readers also accept contactless payments like ApplePay.  Your server will handle the payment for you.

What exit do I use to leave?

Please exit the building near the cash register.  We ask that you not travel back through the hallway to exit the back door you came in.  We are trying to create a one-way traffic flow into the restaurant and back out.

Can I bring my pet?

We do not have outdoor seating options, so we follow the Food & Drug Administration Food Code and Texas Health & Safety Code, which prohibit live animals, including dogs, inside restaurants where food could potentially be contaminated. Certified service animals are welcome.
