Years ago, when my grandfather and I took a few road trips to Houston from Austin (via Hwy 290), he would always note that I should try Cafe 290 when we passed through Manor.  I was usually tired and ready to get somewhere else, but Grandpa- I finally tried Cafe 290 for the first time! 

They’ve recently  had a remodel and it’s really nicely done.  I had the soup of the day which was an interesting, non-spicy take on Chicken Tortilla Soup and I enjoyed the generosity they showed with the chunks of chicken!  My husband had their Bacon Cheeseburger and called it “overwhelming” in size and especially adored the steak fries.  Granted the service was a tad slow and the Coke needed some tweaking, we recommend this restaurant, especially if you’re moving out to Manor.

It’s a Hill Country favorite and you’ll love it to!  We’re confident that anything on the menu will put a Texas-sized grin on your face!!!  Once you’re able to button your top jean buttons back up, head on back over and give us your review- hey, your next meal could be on us!
