    Great beer selection and hard choice between the fired chicken biscuits, Dixie fired chicken or the steak. Server was great and accommodating. Closes early but that might just be a Gastropub thing.

    The buzz about their burger is TRUE. It leaves me speechless and wanting to go back daily. Don’t believe me? Check it out. Monday is burger day with $8 burgers lunch or dinner. Read more

    This was my first time here and it was absolutely AMAZING! The Evening breakfast is to die for. The Mac&cheese is delicious, too! You cannot leave without trying those biscuits with the bacon jam!

    The pup burger is amazing. The steak fries awesome. Bun: warm, soft, & big. Burger: juicy. Steak fries huge & deep fried to perfection.

    Monday night burger night gives you BRC's classic burger complete with "special sauce" but with bacon and cheese to boot — along with a basket of fresh, hot, homemade fries for only $6.50.

    Order the biscuits or chicken, anything that comes with bacon jam- ask for extra. Put it on everything. Eat it with a spoon if you want. It is delicious. They will even make milkshakes with it.

    BRC Gastropub is cheeky in more ways than one: Yes, the "BRC" stands for "Big Red Cock" and the menu follows a similar adult playfulness. Read more

    Brunch fried chicken biscuits are so big it's enough for 2 people. Can't get enough of their bacon jam!

    BRC burger was great. The going Paleo option is a thoughtful gesture but it's hard to eat. Just go with the bun and deal with the carbs.

    Chicken fried steak covered in potato chips is awesome. Not many places in Texas do that. But for an off the order menu try the dr pepper crusted quail. They still make it on request.

    Tried the charred con queso for $8 with beef added for an extra $5. The taste was pretty good but for the $5 extra for meat, they could have put a little more meat in the cheese. Good but not $13 good

    For dinner, they served us leftover stale cheddar biscuits from brunch. They were cold, hard, and not delicious. We ordered queso with the brisket for $3 extra, and we got MAYBE a teaspoon of brisket.
