Out and About in San Marcos, TX


San Marcos is a pretty town and is the home of Texas State University . It is located around a square which is similar to many smaller towns in Texas and it has an impressive Town Hall.


It's an historic area with everything fom the El Camino Real which was the trail route used when Mexico owned the territory to the Chisholm Trail which was also a cattle route in the pioneer days.




 Bricks are situated around the square witch recognise citizens whose names are  printed on them. 



There is something for everyones taste.


A nice name for a Lane.



Some of the shops around the square.



You can even get warm cookies deliverd up until 3 am.



On Saturdays they have a Farmers's Market which has lots of good looking fruit and veges.



Lots of home made cakes and many more goodies to be enjoyed.





We enjoyed brunch at the Root Cellar Cafe and Brewery which our friend William mentioned to us. Its been in exisitance for 14 years and is a market to table restaurant.  On Sundays the wait to get in is about 30 minutes and its worth the wait.



It has a cosy feeling inside.


With lots of art work on the walls.



Apart from coffee they offer a variety of mimosa's.   This is the traditional orange one.


This is a blueberry mimosa which Ross had to try.



The food was delicious.





If we get the chance we will go back for dinner.

Cheers,
Ross and Beverley
