⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Weighted Plate is amazing! The staff here is super friendly and welcoming, which made my experience even better. The food and drinks are fantastic — I especially loved their cocktails with egg whites (don’t worry, you can’t taste the egg, it just adds a nice frothy texture on top). It’s so rare to find places that offer that! I ordered the Country Breakfast and the Raspberry Sour, and both were excellent. They serve breakfast/brunch until 2pm, and they also have a full selection of craft cocktails, beer, wine, and coffee served all day. On top of that, they offer WiFi and have plenty of seating with outlets throughout the space, making it a great spot to relax or get work done. There’s even outdoor seating in the back if you’d rather enjoy some fresh air. I’m only in town

What an awesome new haunt! Has a “Speak Easy” vibe with some very creative cocktails. A few wine and beer choices as well. A great outdoor space with live music on the weekends. The staff really make the place…friendly and welcoming. Some food options in the evening provided by a “food truck” of sorts. You have to try this place.

First time to visit, and it was more than I expected. Top notch service behind the bar, affordable drinks, atmosphere was all Hill country vibe, and to top it off we had steak for dinner that was cooked to perfection. My wife had the Filet and i had the ribeye. Both cooked perfect and flavor….amazing!. Highly recommend the steak dinner. Wish I’d left room for their pizza, it looked amazing too! Next time we’ll try the pizza for sure. If you are looking for live music, great service, craft cocktails and food, with hill country vibe, i recommend it.

The Weighted Plate is… well, something. It looks like a handful of buildings were stitched together at random and someone said, “Yeah, sure, that’ll work.” I guess it’s near New Braunfels, but honestly, it feels more like the suburb of a suburb that accidentally ended up with a stage. The service was split right down the middle, one person was genuinely great, the other seemed to be actively auditioning for “Worst Employee of the Month.” We came for a punk show, but halfway through, the stage lost power and the whole thing screeched to a halt. Nothing says punk rock like waiting around in awkward silence while cowboy boots and checkered button-ups shuffle past you (at a punk show, no less). Food and drinks? Very limited. Bathrooms? Also limited. Crowd? Mostly hyper-local, with an unexpe

Came out for a friend's birthday brunch held outside. Relax, friendly & playful environment for all. Food is definitely a must try. Ordered the avocado toast. Jalapeño jam a tad spicy but overall fresh & tasty. Next time will try the drinks. Will return.
