Lively Coffee House & Bistro

WARNING!! You do not want to work here nor do you want your children working here. She is a bully that screams and belittles the ladies that work with her she is a BULLY. FYI: the health dept would probably shut them down if they knew the way the kitchen was not managed properly. The employees that had been there before she came have quit! Hostile environment...STAY AWAY!

Cute little place. Family friendly.. Menu is not priced but the cost is very reasonable. Lots to choose from.

We happened upon this place by accident, and I’m so glad we did. The employees are friendly, the building is cute, and the green chili chicken sandwich was delicious (as was the potato salad)! It was a little on the pricey side for sandwiches (2 people at $27 with water to drink), but I still recommend since it was so tasty. I didn’t try the coffee, but next time we’re in town I’ll make it a point.

Pulled off the highway for a break and found this charming old main street. The coffee house is actually behind the main street buildings, and it's a quaint little shop in an historic area. I was amazed at how inexpensive - and delicious - my coffee was. (I'm pretty particular about my coffee!) I had avocado toast.... it was an open faced sandwich on homemade bread, covered in mashed avocado, with homemade chips. Outstanding food. It was very quiet in the middle of the afternoon. If I'm ever back in town I'll be sure to stop back in.

This place was fantastic! Ordered the 3 toast tray (avocado, brie and tomatoe, and becky ann) to share and the bacon egg and cheese bagel - absolutely delicious, perfectly seasoned (which is saying a lot from this salt and pepper freak), and even better than I had expected. My husband was just as impressed and he's picky! Kudos to the kitchen staff! Lattes were great as well. Staff was friendly and constantly helping customers. Well worth the stop on our way to Dallas.

My girlfriend and I came here after church on Sunday and to be fair it was a bit crowded, but none of our items came at a satisfying temperature. We both ordered grilled cheese sandwiches and neither of them were melted on the inside but were actually a little cold. Our latte was warm, but no where near hot. We decided not to say anything since it was a little busy inside, but spending $30 for two people was a little pricey for this experience. I was a little disappointed this time around but hope things are better next time :)

Such a fun place to eat and visit. The staff are kind and welcoming; Something you'd expect in Salado. The sandwiches are outstanding as is the coffee. I loved walking down the small ally to this little shop. Such a great treat.

Been to Magnolia Table twice now....Lively CH & Bistro MUCH better!!! Their chicken salad sand and BLT was outstanding! The lemon/cranberry muffin was very good. Worth the time and a great find tucked between the shopping stores in the back.

This is the perfect place to stop and take a moment out of a long drive between cities. The Apple Cinnamon toast is mellow; not too sweet and not too cinnamon-y. Our cashier/host was super sweet to our little one and guaranteed we visit on our trip back through.

I have had coffee and breakfast twice here lately and I love it! Great food and great service!
