Kerbey Lane Cafe - San Marcos

One of my favorite spots to visit while in the Austin area! This particular location is right by the river which makes for a nice view while eating! Their staff is usually friendly and efficient, the food is always good too! Definitely recommend any of their locations!

Great Patio Views of the San Marcos RiverCome for the food...stay for the views!We came here for the first time and had great food, excellent service from Our waitress Kegan and amazing views!

i have eaten here many times for brunch, and I have loved it each time. To me, weather permitting, it's wonderful to sit on the patio. There is such a beautiful view of the San Marcos river and the waterfall. Historically, this used to be a grist mill. There is ample parking and interior seating. The restaurant is much larger than one would imagine. Be prepared, if here on a Sunday afternoon church hours, you can plan on a wait. But, waiting usually means the food is worth the visit. I have had so many different entrees, and each were wonderful.

Service was not as good as the last location in Austin I stopped at, but the food was on point.And you cannot beat that river view right over the old mill's falls! The Butter Coffee was a pancake in a mug and I could have had at least 2 more. The Med salad was well made and had generous portions. This will definitely be one of our fave new spots in town.

Good service, nice building and atmosphere, very mediocre food. The Roasted Tomato & Pesto Burrata appetizer was great, the best thing we ate tonight. The curry salmon was not good, and neither was the chicken pesto panini. Neither dish was "Bad", but both tasted like they were missing something, very bland and boring. I didn't taste anything besides unseasoned chicken in my panini; the pesto, cheese, and tomato were completely absent. We both wished we just ordered the appetizer three times since we actually enjoyed it as opposed to the other dishes.

I visited this location on a Saturday around noon and the parking was not ideal. Definitely had to circle the parking lot a few times to find a spot. However, the tranquil view from the table made it all worth while. The food was excellent. Definitely enjoyed my experience here over the other locations I have visited in the past. As even though it was busy, my server kept my tea full and checked in regularly.

Was in town for a wedding and a bunch of my friends and I decided that this was the best sounding place to go to for brunch on a beautiful Saturday. Think all of San Marcos had the same idea too!! Our group was quite large so unfortunately we waited 45+ minutes and they do not take reservations, so if you are planning to come here, go early! I am glad we stayed in spite of the long wait time as the food and ambiance was great! The servers and hostess were all very nice and accommodating to our large group. Everything my friends got was amazing, they said. I am a brunch girl so had to get a breakfast item and am so glad I did. I had the HARDEST time picking what to eat. Their online menu has images of everything which is super awesome. I landed on the baked potato omelet and it was delicious. Very well seasoned potatoes and great flavors in the omelet with a great potion size as well, the sides are huge!!!My friends all got lunch items instead of breakfast and everyone raved about what they ordered as well. My only complaints were the very long wait time which exceeded what they had told us and the women's bathroom didn't smell so great. This place is definitely worth checking out and if you get there early enough you can eat outside by the river which is so fun!

This is my to go place breakfast and brunch during weekends, so my review is from only this perspective. First of all, Kerbey Lane is an Austin gem. It is a local business and we are here to support it. Breakfast food is great here, but my ultimate favorite is "chicken egg benedict". Literally is the good. Service generally good. I really like this place in terms of they let their servers to be authentic and not put them into a specific borders in terms of clothing and look etc. Also being next to a river with a nicest view in San Marcos doesn't hurt. It is very nice. TL:DR This is your breakfast, brunch place if you are looking for great food with affordable price while enjoying the view. Just do yourself a favor and get 'chicken egg benedict'

Food was diverse and tasty. Had little grand daughters, granddaughter, wife in attendance. Service was a little slow, but not bad. Food was warm and good.Getting a check took a bit longer than expected. Will return

Service is not the best the waiters forgot about are table and took a while to get food never checked in on us
