Karen LeeJune 3, 2013Southwest burger-amazing the queso and jalapeño combo on this is great. We loved the buttermilk mushrooms, nice rich flavor and the peach & pear cobbler is a good end to a great meal here!
Marc ChiricoJune 12, 2015I really liked their Mexican wings; grilled chicken wrapped in bacon w/ jalapeños covered in hot sauce. The Truck Stop enchiladas were tasty, too! I love the vibe and definitely wanna go back!
Austin ChronicleJune 19, 2013Open in the same location since 1947, Hill's Cafe is an Austin landmark serving up Texas specialties such as chicken-fried steak, tamales, barbecue, skillet enchiladas, fried chicken, and catfish.
Mercedes BartonJanuary 4, 2014The Country Bob Burger is AH-MAZING! You'll definitely have leftovers with pretty much anything you eat! Love this place!
Great food and chill country atmosphere. Try the south congress sandwich. Amazing!
Dominic McFadinJanuary 19, 2013Best chicken fried steak in Austin!!! Please support Bob Cole and Hill's Cafe. It's a true genuine Austin original!
Ty BentonOctober 30, 2010I highly recommend the Mexican Hot Wings. I like spicy food as much as the next guy, but I like flavor with my spice and they were awesome. I also recommend the sweet potato fries, they were quite del

SoniMarch 19, 2011Loved the turkey burger on kolache bread, need to find that @ home!... Corn nuggets, fries, n those bacon wrapped buffalo apps are delish!
Always get the yellow gravy on the chicken fried steak.
Justin RichardMay 9, 2014I was thoroughly disappointed with service, food and prices.. I was looking forward to a great meal too. Wait staff wasn't knowledgeable, the CFC and gravy was VERY bland and the mac n chz was dry.
Chris TaylorJanuary 11, 2013Bob Cole runs another Austin landmark into the ground. Boo hoo, not making any money. There's not a godamn meal under $10! You can raise prices through the roof OR buy shit-quality food, but not both.
Shelby HallJuly 2, 2012I've tried to eat here probably ten times. Every time I stop by, they're closed, even though the posted hours say they're open. Are they out if business?
Diner Deluxe with sweet potato fries = a full happy belly!
Rick Perry for PresidentSeptember 1, 2011Get dinner a little early - try the burger - and go around back to catch some great LIVE music.
Jay ByersFebruary 26, 2016Ignored on entrance. Ignored at table. Busses couldn't find the manager Greg. Finally spoke to Maryanna. She bought our meals. Still a disappointing experience. Food was good though.
They are in the process of changing their menu. I tried a steak sammy and it definitely needs more work. Not very good at all.
Renovating as of now.... Menu & prices changed, uhmm....
- Chris TaylorApril 8, 2012These idiots redid the menu... Raised prices and TOOK CORN NUGGETS OFF! Fuck Bob Cole; this place is about to close down.
LinnyAugust 10, 2011Peach cobbler was too doughy and had hardly any peaces in it. Overall food was ok.

"Awesome theater with amazing staff members. All very helpful and the screens and seats are top notch. The Concessions prices are a little hefty, but the food itself is top notch for a movie theater."

"Rent your carpet cleaner here. They just got all brand new equipment (which cleans awesomely) and there's a $10 off coupon so I paid $37 for a massive bottle of soap and 24 hour rental."
