Hillside Farmacy - Austin

Such a cute place, enjoyed our pancakes, bacon and mac and cheese.

Get the strawberry jam with the toast! 20 minute wait for table of 2 on Sunday morning.

The ambiance was quaint and calm. The service wasn’t great a lot of staff standing around on phones and chatting so loud it ruined the atmosphere yet I had to wait almost 20 mins for someone to bring me the check when there were only a few people in the restaurant. The pancakes with the compote were some of the best in the area hot and fresh. The bacon tasted like it was days old. There’s only 5 things on the entire food menu to order and they didn’t have a one of them available until lunch time when the couple behind me tried to order. If you have such a limited menu probably best to have everything available or let customers before ordering. Plenty of indoor seating and patio seating. The place fills up quick on the weekend so get there early if you’re going with a group. Nice overall place if your brining someone who’s visiting and want to bring them to a nice place with some history.

Went for a quiet lunch mid-week and was pleasantly surprised. The menu is very limited, which is fine if you have enough solid choices but this was a little too limited for me. I went with the mac and cheese and it was tasty but a bit too expensive for what you were getting. I don't typically get something that I can easily make it home, but it sounded warmy and comforting and it was. The service was great, she was attentive but not overly so and the vibe inside is very charming and adds to the ambiance. You could have a whole conversation just looking at what's around your table which helps the small talk. Overall, a good find but probably wouldn't return unless they rotate the menu.

We had our office Christmas party here, it was perfect!
