Root Cellar Cafe - New Braunfels (TX)

5 /5 Mariah Whitney: Absolutely loved The Root Cellar Café in New Braunfels! The asparagus fries with homemade ranch were incredible. The savory Belgian waffle with crispy fried chicken and the biscuits and gravy (we added sausage) were both delicious. Finished with a warm brownie and vanilla ice cream, perfect ending. Great atmosphere with beautiful indoor seating and a cute outdoor picnic area. Highly recommend!

5 /5 Dawn Kulpa: This local breakfast, brunch, and lunch spot is an absolute gem. The food was delicious from start to finish, clearly made with care and creativity. One of the highlights was the delightful weekday specials — the soup flight I had today was especially fun and flavorful, offering a great variety and a unique twist you don’t see everywhere. The only downside was a long stretch with an empty water glass, and I did have to request a refill. Aside from that small service hiccup, the overall experience was wonderful. The quality of the food and the thoughtful menu (with lots of vegetarian options, too!) make this a place I’d happily return to and recommend to others.

5 /5 Thalia Velasquez: Roots was an awesome experience. There was a bit of a wait time but definitely worth it. The savory waffle was amazing. The chicken was fried and seasoned really well. The butter and light syrup was a perfect combination. Their cold brew was rich and flavorful. The cappuccino was sweetened but still very balanced and flavorful. Their toast was delicious and fulfilling. Highly recommend this place!

5 /5 Marie Guidry: Parking was easy, we came and ate on Sunday at 2:00 no wait at all. The place looked clean and felt like I was welcomed into someone’s home. You definitely get what you paid for, food portions are a nice size where you’re full and don’t need a box. I Will definitely be returning and bringing my family when they come to town!

2 /5 jordan wise: I wanted to like this place with how aestheticly pleasing it looked and inviting (initially) it was. We got seated outside and waited a solid 15 minutes before I got fed up and had to go inside to get someones attention. There were 2/3 greeters just chatting away rather than helping navigate our server to our section. Our server eventually came out to get our order (which was fine) but the food overall lacked flavor. I ate the chicken & waffles but the chicken thigh still had that silver skin/membrane on it which made it tough to chew. Im not one to throw away food so I ate what I could. My son had the chicken strips & potatoes, with the potatoes tasting almost uncooked and lacked seasoning. We also had the chilaquiles which was down right bad, I get that this isnt an authentic Mexican nor a Tex-Mex restaurant but come on, how do you mess up chilaquiles. Its the most simple Mexican dish. Then towards the end of our meal, it felt like our server just forgot about us. The inside of the restaurant was nearly empty which put the cherry on top for me. Waste of money & time.
