In Short
Inside The Driskill's lobby is a more subtle cafe with 1920s hexagonal-tile floor. Sophisticated details include cherrywood accents, etched glass, art deco-style chandeliers, copper salt-and-pepper shakers and fresh flowers. Baked goods are prominently displayed near the entrance. Choose from the quiet atmosphere inside or a comfortable patio. The menu features pastas and comfort food like meat loaf and burgers with skin-on fries. Organic breads made daily include kalamata olive and Serrano cheddar.

Just wanted to try a new place for a pastry and espresso. The cinnamon roll is actually out of croissant dough-- at least it tastes that way. Yummy! And Illy coffee is always a nice treat. If you are going to dish out a few bucks at the chain across the street... Don't. Just fork out a dollar or two more and get something made in house at the 1886 Bakery!

I used to live over in the Brazos lofts across the street from this place. I loved the food, but I never will go back because of the repeatly rude service. Maybe because I am young and appear to not have " money" the servers where awful. If you eat here take it to go!

We stopped in to this place at about 11am and they had just stopped serving breakfast, but they were willing to let us order from the breakfast menu anyway. The food was fabulous and I would highly recommend this place to anyone. Service was incredibly helpful.
