1st City Cafe

Literally just left this place w/o service because we were apparently ignored. My fiance and I were seated right away, but sat down w/o anyone coming to take even a drink order for nearly 10 whole minutes. But a new table right next to us gets service within the 30 secs they were seated. So of course we feel annoyed and just decided to leave. I heard such wonderful things but this was disappointing :-(

Had fathers day lunch here with a large group of family. Service was great and food was great too. The 1st City Cafe is inside the newly renovated Fredonia Hotel and has a nice atmosphere and some unique menu items.

By far the best resturant experience in East Texas! Maddie our server was beyond exceptional and catered to every need with an amazing personality that brightened up my day. Would be returning to dine again with her as my server. She gave great advice on what to order and I loved every bite on my plate. 5 star resturant for sure!

Awesome food! We tried the steak frites (amazing!), fish and chips, pork tenderloin, catfish tacos, and a handful of cocktails (you have to try the Pepino and Texas Sweet Tea for sure!) And everything was excellent. Very friendly and knowledgeable waiting staff.

Amazing miso glazed salmon! My daughter has many allergies and I am a health nut, so finding healthy, fresh food while out and about is challenging. 1st City Cafe hits the mark where others arent even aiming. They offer a tofu dish, cauliflower rice and other healthy options. My daughter was thrilled to eat somewhere that made her feel included. I am forever grateful for this cafe and Nacogdoches is very lucky to have this forward thinking restaurant. Good for you!

Chicken and Waffles with spicy sauce is really good! Service kinda slow, but in their defense it was really busy. Would go eat there again any day!

I dine regularly on Sunday Brunch it's always superb. Tyler is our server and he id fantastic!! I highly recommend.

Fredonia Hotel restaurants are the best in the city. I had a shrimp dish at 1st City Cafe, sautéed in a butter sauce, seasoned with fresh garlic and other spices, served over a bed of grits. Simply the best restaurant meal I've had in Nacogdoches. We have been to most of the restaurants here. The major one still to be visited by us is the highly regarded steakhouse, also at the Fredonia Hotel.

First rate breakfast food. I'll definitely come here again. We had an omlette and breakfast tacos and breakfast tacos, both were delicious and so was the skillet potatoes that came with them.

Birthday lunch! I had the enchiladas and was not disappointed. Loved the black beans:) And of course, the location is perfect! Loved the decor, the whole experience. Service, too.
