Texas Cannon Brewing Company - Blanco, Texas

I'm visiting Blanco and decided to give this place a try. The food was excellent, and the beer selection was good. I had the smoked brisket sandwich and tater tots. The brisket was tender, and the barbecue was just tangy enough for my liking. The tater tots were freshly made and not soggy like some restaurants. The beers I chose were very different from each other. The best of the 4 by far was a surprise to me after reading the description. El Hefe had a full flavor, good fizz, and a nice smooth finish. Who knew banana and clove would taste great in a beer!? I even left with a growler to take home! My second was the Canon Stout. The flavor was bold, with good chocolate overtones. I know my husband would like it. Next up was Ranger Rye. I don't normally care for a piney taste, and that came through on my tastebuds. The other two of the IPA & Hoppy category were unavailable, or I would have tried one of those. Last on the list of four was a lighter golden lager called The Texian. If that's what you enjoy, then you may like this one. I prefer a fuller bodied beer with unique flavors. The restaurant area was comfortable, a bit rustic, and they had great music playing. The waitstaff was exceptionally friendly and attentive, and there was a steady stream of people coming in for the bar or to pick up takeout orders. I would definitely recommend trying this place out! I know I'll be back. 😊

Love the atmosphere and look of the place. Beers were alright but a little light for my taste - we sampled 8 different ones and felt they were all light. The big surprise was the food. Queso and salsa were both excellent. Green chili white queso that was creamy and flavorful and didn’t get gelatinous. We split the double meat Big Tex bacon burger and it was also very good. The killer for me was the fries. I’m NOT a fry eater, one or two is enough for me. These fries were so good I could have eaten an entire basketful by myself! Golden brown and crisp exterior with a soft fluffy inside. These are 5 star chef fries!!

I’m absolutely in love with the Big Tex Bacon Cheeseburger. This has got to be the best burger I’ve had in many years. The menu shows a good variety of other types of burgers as well. My son ordered the Chicken tenders and he was equally impressed with the quality and size of his meal. Staff here are super friendly and very helpful when it comes time to deciding what to order. This was our first time visiting and no doubt we will be back again real soon. I’m even willing to drive from over an hour away (even if I am not passing through) just to eat here again. Highly recommend this place to everyone! 10 out of 10

Really good! The sweet potato fries are to die for and don't skip the special sauce. Chicken tacos were great! Nice music overhead. Seating for a large group on a day when it's not busy. I recommend this place for sure!

I had the brisket quesadilla, which was very greasy although tasty and the tortilla was still crispy. I put a LOT of paper towels in the plate to soak up the grease and keep the tortilla crisp. The beans that came with were peppery and delicious. My husband has the Cannon dog, which he loved ("give it 5 stars!"). The atmosphere was clean, but nothing special. What stood out was the lack of interest the two older women servers had in actually doing their jobs. They spent most of the time talking to each other behind the bar, showing each other stuff on their phones. The shorter of the older women was personable when she came to take our order, but the taller one wouldn't look at us when we walked in except to stare at us with a blank expression while we waited for some sign as to how things worked there (she finally asked me if I wanted a menu and brought me one--my husband was in the restroom -- put it on the high table near me without looking at me and was gone before I could ask if we should seat ourselves. When my husband joined me standing there looking at the menu, he caught her eye and asked if we should seat ourselves, she grunted an affirmative. Later both of them came to our table, and the shorter one asked if we'd chosen a drink, as soon as my husband said his choice, the taller one walked off to get it (mine came several minutes later). If the place had been busy and they'd been working, the slowness and neglect would have been perfectly acceptable, but it wasn't and they weren't. Maybe it was because we weren't locals? But there were a couple of other tables that received similar treatment as far as I saw. There was a younger server who these two also mostly ignored while she worked another table and kept fairly busy.

The food and beers were good enough that we'll try this place again. Maybe it was just a bad day...
