For Eatin’, Drinkin’ and Sleepin’:
These are a few of our favorite restaurants in the Kerrville area.
- Our very favorite, Cowboy Steak House, 416 Main Street, Kerrville. Richard and Lorie Ferris are dedicated to making their restaurant a place you’ll remember. Consistently good, excellent steaks, in season cobblers, impressive wine list, friendly staff, and packed with artwork collected over many years from artists showing in Kerrville.

- Branding Iron Restaurant in the Y.O. Ranch Resort Hotel, 2033 Sidney Baker (Hwy 16), again another consistently good place to eat breakfast, lunch or dinner; and their Sunday Brunch is to die for!

- The Rails, 615 East Schreiner St. Located in the restored historic 1915 Kerrville Train Depot. The San Antonio Express-News calls Rails “a small gem polished with local flavor and a bit of history.” This has to be one of Kerrville’s best restaurants. Excellent food, wine menu, desserts.

- Taco to Go, 428 Sidney Baker (corner of Schreiner St.) for a quick, freshly made taco (breakfast or lunch). Their huevos rancheros stacks up well against those you get at the pricier eaterias.
- Spirit Wind Java, 109 Hwy 39, Ingram. Best sandwiches around, made on fresh bread, and of course excellent coffee – either hot or iced.

- Mamacita’s Restaurant, 214 Junction Hwy, Kerrville. For a full blown Mexican meal, with plenty of seating this is the place to go.

To cool off and wet your whistle, there are 2 good historic bars to cater to your needs.
- Elm Water Hole, in the Lobby of the Y.O. Ranch Resort Hotel. You’ll feel like you’ve gone back in time when you open the heavy wooden and stained glass doors.
- The Bar in Cowboy Steak House. No one is a stranger here. Very relaxing environment, and the Liar’s Pit makes for an amusing stop.

For a place to stay while in Kerrville:
- Of course, the Historic Y.O. Ranch Resort Hotel has to be our favorite. The hotel is full of antiques and artifacts, the spirit of the Wild West with an elegant flare.

- If you are in an RV, we like the Guadalupe River RV Resort. This is a quiet location with a relaxed family atmosphere along the banks of the Guadalupe River; and many sites (including some cabins for rent).
