Delicious hamburgers ! Delicious pastries ! Delicious EVERYTHING! Don’t be fooled by waiting for Buccee’s further down 71, this is the place to stop on the way to Austin from Houston.
If you want kolaches on the weekend you better get there early. They are incredibly delicious and go quickly. Nice midway stop from Houston to Austin, especially since the bathrooms are always clean .
The best Czech food is in gas stations . To taste Czech culture and a delicious kolache or klobasniky, head to Hruska's in Ellinger or head down the road to Weikel’s Bakery in La Grange.
A smaller version of Praesek's further south, Hruška's carries lots of overpriced trinkets for tourists , lots of delicious homemade sweets, and even features Praesek's meats. A great roadside stop.
Everything best gas station I've been to in a while. Food is amazing.
Tried the tasty, heated ham & cheese jalapeño kolache . Also a cinnamon raisin roll, cream cheese and peach kolache . All were fresh and doughy goodness. Will definitely stop by the next time.
Heard they had great pies but there was no pie 😞 I guess they ran out. They do have really delicious danish variety packs that cured that sweet craving. Great coffee . Cookies are delicious too!
Oh man. Everything about this country store is awesome. People, it's clean , food and pastries , Texas country and wide selection on Monster drinks!
Try the black bean burgers and enjoy the large selection of alternative snacks for your road trip! Lots of classic and newer, healthier options that will please almost anyone!
Great place to stop. Convenient, clean restrooms & excellent food. Recently expanded too so more to enjoy.
Great Texas road stop. Coffee and Deli/Grill. Nice picnic tree behind the building as well .
Great burgers , kolaches and klobasnkys . Burgers are big and juicy. Take the time to eat inside. It's well worth it.
Great place to stop and get just about everything in between Austin and Houston!
Great Kolaches & Hamburgers - every time we go to Austin my Suburban just knows to automatically exit at Hruska's! Cary Michael Cox
A must-stop on the way to Austin. Get the pan sausage kolaches for a real treat. And yes, you want them warmed up.
1.) Koláče (Kolache ) is plural. It doesn't need the S at the end. 2.) If it has meat and cheese it in, it's a klobasnek, which is not a koláč.
Awesome food at the grill. And the kolaches and cream puffs . If you get the chance, stop here.
Totally loved it. They got real Southern DNA. I wish I could visit this remote place again.
Traveling back and forth from Austin and Houston, you owe it to yourself to stop in here and try the kolaches .
The Jack Hammer blend of coffee is to die for if you like it dark!
Best kolaches I've ever had, living in Texas my entire life.
Best rest stop between Houston and Austin! Make sure to stock up on kolaches !
Kolaches are amazing and the burgers are delicious too!
The perfect stop between Houston and Austin for snacks and a bathroom break.
Pan sausage and cheese kolaches are awesome
Clean bathrooms . I'll stop here if I can't wait till buccees. Good kolaches too.
Burgers are great but not very to-go friendly . Very moist/juicy. You will wear the burger if you try to eat and drive.
Zapps potato chips and freshly made turkey sandwiches are the way to go!
Buc-eesesque stop with homemade foods .
Kolaches are great here (as you might expect!).
