Jake's Texas Tea House

Tried it all (basically). Burger, fries, dessert, beer. The works. Using whizzbangs as a comparison, it’s not as good. It was fresh and desserts made from scratch so the quality was top notch, but everything was very basic. Service was great but learning that is a Waco standard. Great ambiance though. A little cheesy with all the automotive references but it’s got a charm to it. Could see tourists loving this place. Also could be a good spot for a larger group with kids because every kid loves fries and chicken nuggets and cool car decor.

We had lunch here yesterday and it was FABULOUS! I loved the sourdough bread, it gave a simple grilled cheese a lot of depth. Dessert didn't disappoint, the crust was super flakey, the lemon cream was perfect and the whipped cream delightful. Portions are big, so bring your appetite! Must eat here again soon!

This place is a treat for the whole family!! Old school cars, gas pumps and eclectic decor galore!! The food is delicious - the chicken strips specifically were excellent!! The kids meals come inside of a cool old school car which is so neat! This is a great stop for a fun and delicious meal in downtown Waco, Texas! I recommend for a great home-cooked meal!!

When we first showed up it was not at all what we were expecting. We walked in and it was decorated with old signs and old cars., They even used hubcaps for plates( great way to keep with the theme honestly). The service was excellent, friendly staff. The food was good, it was exactly what you would expect just a good American style diner. Well season, good flavor and very fresh. If you're ever in Waco and wanting a classic style American diner honestly this is a great place to go.

The food was good. We had a mushroom Swiss burger, fries and a salad. Our party had other items they enjoyed. Service was a little slow but not horrible. We enjoyed the options and the scenery. All the cool vintage car parts and decor were fun to look at and talk about. Prices were very reasonable. There was no wait in line to get a table. We'll surely return.
