    ITS HEB....NUFF SAID. Also if you're looking for the spot to get the best chicken tenders in Kerrville, this is where you need to go! I know that sounds silly because I'm reviewing a barbecue place, don't get me wrong the barbecue's good! But these chicken tenders are supreme! They're fries are super delicious and sometimes I order them alone! Also they have this cool little deal where if you buy one of their mugs which even at the largest size is 10 bucks, you can always go in at any point in time and get refill for $0.99! I bought the biggest mug of course! It's always clean and the service is always great! There is an entire bar to sit at with USB ports and charging stations in case you would like to go in and sit and do a little bit of work! Any type of seating that you prefer is there! There is a bar with bar stools! There are high top tables with bar stools! There are regular tables with regular chairs! And there are booths! I don't know what significance that has, but it literally has all the different types of seating 🤣🤙🏼 it's always nice and cool in here too and never stuffy! Make this a regular spot for yourself!

    So we walk in and are immediately told they don’t take cash. That’s fine I always pay with card. Then we attempt navigate a kiosk with 6000 choices. Finally get that done and go to pay and get the circle of death on the screen. Then a lady comes around the counter to look what’s happening. She says well it’s because you have beer on there. My response was well you have beer as choice! She responds that you can’t buy beer on the kiosk. But she offers to walk me to the other side of Kerr county in the store to some customer service counter to get beer. My response was never mind. Might look into a restaurant manager. Probably would go along way here!

    The Mac and cheese was great. The brisket BBQ sandwich was big and filling. I’m not sure why but the root beer hit different here. Good stuff!!
