Maxines Cafe & Bakery - (Near Bastrop, TX)

5 /5 Katherine B: Best chicken and waffles Ive ever had !!!!!!!!!!!!! Yummy! Post trip edit: It took a little bit of time to get sat with a group of our size but both waitresses were very prompt with getting us taken care of! I wish I got the ladies names since they did such a great job! A read headed woman and a brunette. Both ladies were so friendly and made our visit even more enjoyable! The mimosas were PERFECT! I loved the mason jars for all our drinks too, I feel like it makes it taste better haha While the chicken and waffles are my personal highlight of the day, all the extra sides I got to taste were great! The biscuit was HUGE and made perfectly. Buttery and salty, dense but still very moist. Fried green tomatoes were delicious and so were the sweet potato fries! Our group will be coming back asap!!

5 /5 Rory Goldman: I love to travel. Finding new places to eat is a big part of traveling for me. I particularly enjoy finding out of the way restaurants to try. Bastrop Texas is a very nice town kind of off the beaten path but real Texas. My traveling buddy and I decided to try Maxines for a quick breakfast stop and we were not disappointed. The service was Texas friendly. Its my kind of place. Tidy, clean, comfy with plenty of Texas memorabilia on the wall. I ordered biscuits and gravy with home fries. I know, its an easy to prepare meal but I have had bad versions so this was a pleasant surprise. Nice crispy potatoes and super tasty gravy on tender, fluffy biscuits. Just the kind of meal you would expect in Texas. Hearty and great tasting. Prices are very reasonable and like I said the service and atmosphere just what we were looking for in the great state of Texas.If you are hungry and in the area you should definitely give it a try.

3 /5 B.J. Gober: The food was good depending on what you had. My wifes chicken fried chicken was cooked so crispy she had to pull all breading off to eat it. I ordered the catfish it was tasty. However the tater sauce for the fish was runny and had way to much vinegar in it. Service was good but slow they were real busy it was a Saturday with many people out.

4 /5 Steve Dycus: First time to visit & tour downtown historic Bastrop Texas — including our lunchtime stop here at Maxine’s Cafe. Amazing service — very personable & chatty server. Good selection of both breakfast & lunchtime entrees. I liked my Monte Cristo sandwich. My wife & mom split a massive planet-sized chicken fried steak smothered in gravy. Venue is appropriately situated in a historic building with original brick walls. Located on tourist friendly Main Street nestled among other shops.

5 /5 Frank Kristof: I stopped by Maxines today. It was my first time. Absolutely loved it. The atmosphere was fantastic, service was extremely friendly, and the food was delicious! I will definitely be back soon.
