Alamo Springs Cafe

Burgers and Bats - A "Texas Top 10", Texas Monthly Burger, PLUS, Old Tunnel State Park
  

Burgers and Bats at the Alamo Springs Cafe

Take a scenic drive out Old San Antonio Road when the sun is sinking low, and DISCOVER an illuminated landscape of rolling hills studded with seasonal Wildflowers and blooming Texas Natives, iconic River and Creek Crossings where blue herons roost and the Cara-cara flies, pastoral Heritage Farmsteads complete with original rock houses, creaking windmills and grazing livestock. PLUS, once you arrive at Alamo Springs Cafe you are going to experience a made-to-order Texas Roadhouse Destination that will call you back again and again! It is truly, EXTRAORDINAIRE!

Alamo Springs Cafe is famous for their mountainous Homemade Hamburgers... in fact, these BURGERS are Legendary! You just can't get your mouth around how BIG these beauties really are, until you are up close and personal with the Behemoth sitting there on your table!
Note: Be sure to take a friend along, so you can share! There's a reason that so many burgers go by with a knife stuck in the bun... you really do have to cut it in half! It is almost impossible to eat the whole thing! This is definitely a BURGER for TWO!

Save US from Ourselves...

But the basic burger isn't the whole story at Alamo Springs Cafe! Get ready to sink your teeth into the most fabulous comfort food you will EVER encounter on the back-roads of Texas... BLT's, portabella mushroom burgers, New Mexico-style green chili burgers, goat cheese w/roasted garlic, handmade fries, onion rings, and chalk board dinner specials that are out of this world... savory pot roast, lasagna, homemade enchiladas, and for dessert, how about a piece of strawberry key lime pie! YUMMY! Add a wonderful wine and beer selection, and a friendly laid-back, Texas Roadhouse ambiance, and you are in for a WIN! WIN! Food-fest!

Roasted Garlic and Crostino! AMAZING!

Seasonally, you can dine al fresco on the patio and watch the bats fly, as they emerge from the Old Tunnel State Park in spirals just at sunset! Alamo Springs also features Live Texas Music to dine and dance by every Friday and Saturday night!
Alamo Springs Cafe is an absolute MUST TASTE Hill Country Dining Destination near Fredericksburg, Texas!

This is not "FAST FOOD" folks! Every order is custom built just for you! So, kick back and relax... REAL TEXAS FOOD is coming, and it is worth every minute that you have to wait! Bon Appetit!
