High Country Market and Diner

I have been going here for years for beer and food, new owners came and I was skeptical but it is still really good! The truffle ketchup is freaking awesome and portions are generous. They have a great craft beer selection and the customer service is great, the owner is so friendly every time I come in. It’s nothing fancy like a “ bistro” but just an old faithful local cafe/gas station that’s well rounded and never disappoints.

Excellent food, beer, and wine selection. I’ve been there several times and everything is excellent. Pizza, pulled pork, turkey, gyro all tasty - it makes deciding hard. Z is super knowledgeable on wines in stock, and was detailed in descriptive of the Australian and New Zealand wines we bought. I would trust any of his recommendations.

Both of us felt their burgers were very tasty. I tried their homemade chips and my wife got their homemade french fries. We also ordered homemade onion rings. All of it was surprisingly delicious. I also went out on a limb, tried their homemade spicy hot sauce, it had a nice kick, that didn't try to burn my mouth off. The spicy feeling went away after 30 seconds or so. It was nice enough that I ate the rest. Note, it only requires just a very little bit per onion ring.

I loved the fries. My friend loved the Reuben. This is the kind of place where you walk in and you're immediately treated like family. Some may find that off-putting, but we had a good time and will probably be back!!

Great place for people who can’t decide if they want beer, wine, or stop by a burger joint. Highly recommend the food. They have all local beers available. Great atmosphere!

What an amazing find. If you are looking for great French wines, look no further. The owner is the nicest and most gracious guy you will ever meet. He has fantastic stories to tell about all the different wines they sell.

Really really really like their beer selection. Way closer than Total Wine or Spec's and has just as much variety just on a smaller scale. Prices are more than fair and even though I came in wearing a New England Patriots jersey, I still got friendly service. I wish they had more bagged snacks, though. I'm guessing they don't or won't to help push kitchen food. It looks like they have a nice seating areas and serve pizza and sandwiches. Will have to come back soon.

Absolutely unreal how good the food is for a gas station, not to mention their selection of craft beers and snacks/beverages you can’t find at most gas stations! Food is quick and affordable too!

We love this place! The burgers are phenomenal, the pizza is delicious. I love the Turkey sandwich. They have a great wine selection. Check it out!!

A patron just raved about this place and the food. Had the wings and a sandwich with fries. Everything was just ok. No harm no foul but nothing to make me come back. It's prices are common with other places but like I mentioned nothing to make it memorable. It's a gas station/pub.

The burgers are Devine! The service is world class. You won't find a better local joint to kick back and relax and enjoy your breakfast , lunch , or dinner. The atmosphere is so welcoming.

This place is a hidden gem. I went this evening to meet up with friends. I was delighted to find a wide variety of wines and beer and a great menu of hot food. I will not only go back but I will bring friends.

Good food. Cheese Steak is top notch as is their homemade potato chips. Pizza is a bit heavy but good. Great beer and wine selection.

Such a random find. I needed a quaint spot for some Zoom meetings but was also starving. Bottom line: GET THE FRIES!!!!! Scarfed them down before getting a pic, but will definitely be back.

Food is delicious and staff is very nice and accommodating! Plus a wide selection of beer and wine. Will definitely return!

This spot has a great craft beer selection. 2/3rds of it are not refrigerated so be prepared to get ice. I've gotten sandwiches from here a couple times. Just as good as any other bar-type places. Service is always friendly. Couple places to sit and watch tv inside. There's also a small outdoor patio that's covered and has seating. The pizza always smells good, though I've never had it before.

Called in order While I was 30 mins away Said he needed 15 Cool no prob Arrived and waited 20 Ok ok I'm alright Double pepperoni was so good. I do prefer more sauce but, still good. The pepperoni had the crunchy edges I like Took home a piece of red velvet and Italian cream for my last We both loved it all Only one register so slow going but I recommend you try this out if the was gas station pub. Serve alcohol on site and sell NUMEROUS types of beers microbrew stuff-more than I've seen most places.

They literally had no shits to give about us as customers. They were unfriendly, unwelcoming and clearly did not give a crap. The bartender actually made a joke about my husband to his face. I have NO Idea why anyone would give this place or these people 5 stars. Not friendly, not fun and not like most places in around Round Rock.

The fries are fantastic. Worth the up charge from the chips. Unfortunately the burgers always have the potential to be amazing and are at times but more than not, they're over cooked and dry. I just picked up 3 burgers and spent $43 and they were all over cooked - again. The fries were great though.

High Country Market and GastroPub was a great local place and my first time visiting, not my last that's for sure. There is a wide selection of beers and wines and saw people coming here just for the 6-packs of craft beers. I got the Philly cheesesteak and really enjoyed it and the fries. Go check this place out off Gattis in Round Rock.

The food tasted like dirty stinky mop water and mold DON'T DO it SAVE YOURSELF Eww Stinky dirty garbage tasting Food zero stars eww i spit it out in a NAPkin nasty DON'T DO It ! Don't waste your money eww it's eww Nasty dirty garbage bad bad bad if zero stars could be it i would do it nasty

This Restaurant/Bar-in-a-Gas-Station has gone through a few changes in ownership since my original review, so it's time to update. I wish I could say that the changes have been seamless. I wish I could say that the food and service haven't suffered. I wish I could say that this is still a place I frequent. I wish I could say that they've handle the transition to COVID protocols well. Unfortunately, I can't. The Reuben I used to love here has gotten gristly, thin, soggy. The hamburgers I used to like have some kind of additive that I dislike. The cool, relaxed vibe feels tense and despondent now. The managers are inconsistent about which customers they'll yell at to sanitize their hands when walking in the door. The fact they feel it's appropriate to yell at *any* customer when they walk in the door says alot.

I truly don't understand how this place is in business. They don't have public restrooms. Yes, that 's right. It's a bar that doesn't have restrooms. There's a sign on the front door, if you don't believe me. Went there for lunch, all the lights were off, TV's turned off. I didn't see anyone at first, so I thought they were closed. I was the only customer there the whole time they made my order. Trash and boxes all over the place. $30, after tax and tip, for an overcooked hamburger, with maybe 3 oz of beef, and the smallest pita I have ever been served in my life. No gas. Yes, that's right. It's a gas station that doesn't have gas. All pumps shut off. It is not possible to rate this place any higher than 1 star. Go down the street to the HEB/Whataburger gas station. Get gas, use the bathroom and eat better food with the electricity turned on, for half the price. That's saying a lot because I hate Whataburger.

I ordered the mushroom and sausage pizza for my wife and I. I ordered like thirty minutes before it told me to pick up. When I got there, I waited an extra 15 minutes for the pizza. So 45 minutes after I ordered. Normally that's not that bad but there was literally 5 people in the whole restaurant. 2 of them were working. That's pretty slow. Brought it home and honestly I've had better frozen pizza. It was real doughy and lacked a lot of flavor. Minimal sausage and the mushrooms. I bit off a piece and the cheese completely came off the pizza and there was barely any sauce holding the cheese on. It was heavy on the dough and nothing else. Unless they change the recipes and use more fresh ingredients, I won't be back.

We continue to enjoy High Country Market & Gastropub for it's wonderful pizzas, craft beers on tap and casual ambiance. Our go-to pizzas are the pepperoni and the Hawaiian with pineapple and ham. We always ask for extra crispy crust and it never disappoints. This time I got a great local craft growler that we enjoyed when we got home with the pizza. Really hate to see our local neighborhood places struggling to stay afloat with just take out. Glad the stay at home orders are easing up. I still ask fellow Yelpers to tip extra these days. We'll continue to be regulars here. Cheers!

Great food and super nice people! I've tried something different every time and always enjoy it. Healthy portions and the house chips are fantastic!

What a great place for a beer and good food!! If you haven't come here yet I highly recommend it for, if nothing else, their beer selection! They have the coolest draft beers on tap of just about any place I have been! And they do not cost a ton either! I got the temptress mole and at 13% alcohol it was only 6$!!!! WOWZERS! They constantly roll in and out different beers on tap and have a large cooler filled with other interesting types too... just can't go wrong! Their wine selection is something to be cherished too... seriously... you have got to try this place! Since the last time I was here it does seem to have slipped a bit in maintenance... light in hall way not working, icee machines down... cooler for sodas really low... and the extra TVs in eating area are off... I think we need to rally for this establishment! For a gas station restaurant it is really so very very cool! You can't beat the selection! I don't want to see this place fold up... it truly is a coo cool coo place!

Great pizza, fantastic beer selection. Slow, rude, snarky service from the aged bar tender. Brought in a group of four, and bar tender insulted me and my beer choice after I sampled a hazy ale, asked if he had a pale ale, and settled on a Yuengling. He then ignored my wife when she tried to place order. The place was dead slow on a Monday night. I used to come more often, probably won't be back. There are plenty of places to grab a beer.

Wow pleasantly surprised by this recommendation and now I tell everyone who lives nearby about this. High Country is a gas station..... with a bar in it, food, oh and casually 100s of different kinds of craft beer. Need I say more? We stopped in on a Sunday to check out the selection and ended up staying for a beer and a burger. The food: amazing and fresh. We did the $5 Sunday burger special, and might I mention the KETCHUP. I believe it's truffle ketchup, has me drooling about when I get to try it again. The bar: great selection of beers on tap, they also have a whole selection of wine. In addition to the tap they have a variety of bottles in the fridge you can also pick from. They do Monday ALL DAY pint happy hour for $3.50, which is as cheap as they come by and local brewery tap takeovers on Thursday. Speaking my language. The beer Togo: gosh almighty this is the place to get craft beer, but careful they aren't all cheap! They also have Pacifico in a can and a fabulous selection of commercial and domestic beer. They have fridges full of cans from breweries EVERYWHERE, not just Texas beer. They then have a whole large bottle section and more. If you like to try new brews - get here now! If this didn't sell you ^ the people were also tremendously helpful and personable. Stop in if you are nearby and be ready to turn from skeptical to a regular. Shout out to the owners of Southern Heights (my fave brewery if you read that review) for introducing us to this place.

My wife loved her taco and I enjoyed my broken yolk BLT with unlimited Katz coffee from Houston. They have an amazing selection of beers and wine. The Katz coffee was superb and they have a selection of three different roasts to choose from, me likey!

This place is close to home so I was going to pick up some lunch, but the store is anything but friendly. Doors are covered in signs that don't make a person feel welcome. Everything posted is so negative. I just turned around and went someplace else. I'm not spending money at a place that doesn't want me in the place. Wish I would have taken pictures.

Anytime I see a place that is mistooken as just a gas station, but has gourmet burgers, draft microbrews, and full wine selection....you know I am going to check it out. This is a gastro pub, and very full selection of beer and wine, with dining area and covered patio. I will be back to check out the cheeseburgers next. Definitely an i dependent business that you wouldn't expect: stop in and check it out...on Gattis School Road.

The "pancakes" that come with the pancake breakfast are actually closer to silver dollar pancakes, and they don't have ANYTHING to put on the toast I asked for butter for the SINGLE thinnest piece of Texas toast I've ever seen, and they didn't have that or any jelly or cream cheese or ANY topping to put on this. 3 eggs, half a potato, two strips of bacon and a single slice of dried toast are not worth $8. Save your money and

Surprise yourself by spending the afternoon and evening drinking and eating from scratch food at a convenience store. Caution: no public restrooms!

Great food, excellent wine! Zahir was extremely knowledgeable and helpful as I was picking out a few new wines, and we loved the ones he recommended! We will be back!

Visited for lunch today. The food was incredible, wagyu burger was delicious. The truffle rosemary ketchup is a must! Visited during COVID and the place was clean, they're following all recommended precautions and I felt completely safe eating inside. Will be back ASAP!

*sighs* I would absolutely love to rate this place higher. However, it's waaaaay too hit or miss. BLT- blah nada darn thing note worthy about it. Chocolate Eruption Cake - sweet Jesus - a must try! Portion and price on point. For the sake of anything and everything do not even try the Frito Chili Pie. The boyfriends personal opinion- garbage in a plastic bowl. The corn chip vs topping ration way off- very dry and extremely lack luster. -unless that's our thing- then by all means go for it. Carrot Cake- another must try Hot Wings = total winner. Great spice not too many fries or chips came with this one. We've ordered wings several times Caramel cheesecake- if ya like caramel then it's a winner for you. Meat lovers pizza.... take me back and get one to go! Tha fk it's delicious. I realllly wanted to try this new Chicken Tandoori Pizza- Not yet available- then don't put it on the menu. Ugh! Nevertheless the meat lovers will take me back, and hopefully that day I'll get to try the CTP. If any of yous south siders find your way north- think whip in- this place has so many speciality beers and various wines its ah-mazing. In fact a friend I introduced to this place said exactly that, "You ever heard of the whip in" Oh and the service has always been nice. Plus total bonus - black truffle rosemary ketchup...whaaat?!?? I don't even like ketchup, this tho- tasty! Get cha gas, grab a nice bite and indulge in a beverage- plus they have a little outside seating area.

Stopped in because we were starving and it was on our way home. I ordered their grilled chicken sandwich and my fiancé orders the SW Turkey sandwich. Everyone was friendly enough but my sandwich was supposed to come on a pretzel bun. It didn't. And as you can see from the pictures, the tomatoes on both our sandwiches were pretty terrible, basically inedible because they were cut with the core. Gross if you ask me. It's been my experience that when a place serves you these tomatoes they do so because they are extreme penny pinchers. And you don't want to be eating things made by penny pinchers because who knows what other corners are cut. Aside from those issues the food wasn't bad per se, just a let down. Oh and 1 extra star for their homemade chips. Those were great. Update for Zahir the owner: Let's get something straight. If you employ people who would make these poor decisions in the first place, I'm not exactly instilled with confidence that upon holding them accountable for said poor decisions, they wouldn't become vindictive. What's more likely, your employee didn't know he was making a poor decision or he simply didn't care? In either case, it's justifiable cause for concern should I attempt to rectify it by bringing it to your cashiers attention

***updated: finally tried the pizza here. Really delicious. I love this place. Fantastic food. BLT is also really great. I really enjoyed my meal here. I had a burger with fries and a wheat beer. I ate the whole burger and it was really delicious. I think my favorite part was the rosemary truffle ketchup I dipped my fries into. It was addictive. Service was very friendly and helpful. Great beer and wine selection both for your meal and to pick up and take home. Would definitely go back.

After viewing the ratings the kids and I were in the neighborhood and decided to try it. Was not a "bad" experience but certainly not good. The hamburgers were not on buns but on regular sandwich bread. They got all soggy and fell apart as did the the pork sandwiches. Daughter got the cheese pizza and it was just okay. The guy serving the beer was drinking it as much as he was serving. Seems like they were out of ingredients and didn't bother telling me any of that during the order and instead choosing to substitute, which never works out well. Won't be back.

Such a strange experience. The first thing I noticed were several "Smile, you're on camera" signs as I walked in. This is a nice neighborhood, so that was surprising, but not a deal breaker. However, when I went to browse their selection of bottled beer, a lady approached me and said that I couldn't go into that part of the store with my backpack. I was taken aback at the implication that I might steal something, but my wife and I had traveled across town just to try the place so I went along and had my wife hold my backpack while I looked in the coolers for a beer we could share. Once I made a selection, it got even stranger. The clerk said they would have to charge me 2 dollars if I wanted them to open the bottle. However, they said that if I selected a beer from a cooler behind the bar instead, I wouldn't have to pay an additional charge. Seeing as this was all one store that didn't make any sense, so I decided to cut my losses and quit trying to give this place my business. At the end of the day, I didn't appreciate being treated like a criminal when I first walked in and then, trying to charge me 2 dollars to open a bottle of beer from one cooler, but not another was arbitrary and poor customer service. No, I won't be back.

I'm puzzled after my last visit. My Son ordered a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon and they said they didn't have any. So we ordered a glass of Sauvignon Blanc and they said they didn't have that either. My Son came and asked me what else I wanted since they didn't have either so I walked up and asked what they had. The guy brings a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon and said I have this. I laughed and said ok let me get a glass please. So if you specialize in wine, why not educate your bartenders on wine. There seemed to be only 3 bottles out of wine they were pouring. Pizza was good. It was a busy Friday and everyone just seemed too busy and not customer friendly at all. I guess you have to be a regular and sit at the bar to get smiles.

I absolutely love this place. It's a hidden gem with great food, great beer, and great service! Definitely opt for the rosemary ketchup. It's legit. Their pizza is bomb. Their fries are great. Burgers are just okay, but I guess you can't have it all, right? Go there - you won't be disappointed.

This place is a HIDDEN GEM. Their local beer selection is second to none. They have a small bar with several local beers on tap as well as a wine bar. They also serve burgers and pizzas; and their burgers are very delicious on buns they bake themselves and the vegetables they use are very fresh. Check it out, especially if you like local craft beers!

If there were a place with a sign that read, "eat here and get gas", this would be it. I want to like this place but there isn't much to like. None of the food is fresh. Everything is frozen, dropped in hot oil, and plopped in a basket. The service isn't friendly, and the place is mildly cleaned. It seems the place is funded by regulars who sit at the tiny bar and drink beer. When this place first opened I used to come here regularly with my son for a burger and beer. After a while they lost their way, the food was no longer fresh, and the service became poor. After avoiding for 2-3 years I returned to find it even worse. This place has so much potential, but my recommendation is don't eat here, just get gas and find your way to a better place.

I cannot rate the food, and still may give it a shot in the future since it really does seem like my kind of place, but they wouldn't serve me. Yelp says it closes at 10pm and the actual website seems to be hacked or given up on. I showed up at 7:30pm they says kitchens closed, as the guy just finished putting down food in front of another customer. I've worked food service back end. I didn't in any way want them to cook for me after closing the kitchen. It's not the cooks fault, but the front end had no explanation other than tough luck. For a word of mouth, I'd expect a little more attention to those details and

I love this place, it is such a mish mash of things. They have an eclectic wine and beer selection and a decent menu of things with a little seating area along with being a gas station...what more could you ask for in the neighborhood.

I want to like this place, not only because it's so close to my house, but because I like the concept a lot! High Country Market is a gas station, filled with all of your convenience store goodies, and stocked with a ton of local food and drink products. It also has a cool cafe and wine tasting counter as well. The food is a bit pricey, but you can definitely taste the quality. ($17 for a bacon and blue cheese burger, with a side of house cut chips, and a 16 ounce 512 Pecan Porter-before tip) They do ground their beef in house, and bake most of their breads and pasteries items. Lots of local craft beer on tap and in the refers. When ordering your burger, I do suggest you tell them how you want it cooked. I made the mistake of just ordering, and my burger came out very medium, which was a lot red than I'm used to. Nonetheless, it was a great tasting burger, and everything was very fresh. The service was very fast and friendly. Yay= food, service, selection, local products Nay= price, under cooked buger

Some places just don't know how to be friendly. Everywhere you look there are signs of it (literally have signs everywhere). "WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE TO ANYONE". (at least two of these) "DO NOT SLAM BEER COOLER DOOR!! Thanks" "ABSOLUTELY NEED CHANGES TO MENU ITEMS OR MENU SUBSTITUTIONS " "DO NOT TOUCH" "NO DOGS ALLOWED" "NO SMOKING" "NOTICE NO TEXTING OR TALKING ON CELLPHONES" These folks just seem to be very anti-customer. I ordered a Reuben, fries, and a drink. There were three thin slices of meat, and the sandwich quality / quantity did not match expectations for a $10 sandwich. They seem to have a large beer selection, but all of the coolers are covered in condensation, and you can't see inside. The water running off the coolers are making a mess on the floor that their rolled up towels can't handle. There is potential here, but they need to be less aggressive with the negative signs, improve the value on their food, and fix their coolers.

When I bought my beer I saw the can was expanded out on the lip the owner guaranteed the beer. When I got home I unloaded the box of beer from an air conditioned vehicle I proceed to put the drinks away. When I pulled the 903's from the plastic ring, each beer did the same thing (see photo) This shows a defective can and not worth the risk of drinking. I put them in a grocery bag tied it shut and came back within 30-45 minutes (the store is a 5 minute drive). As I entered the driveway, the 1st beer can exploded. By the time I parked another can did as well and my entire front seat was covered in foam and the interior of my car riddled with beer explosion marks. As soon as I could I opened up my passenger door and tossed the bag outside my car. I went inside and asked for towels and got 2. When I went back inside I asked for more and got napkins and was told by the owner he would bring me out more towels. I soaked up as much as I could with the sad amount of napkins and the owner still had not brought me a towel. Then he went to the back and brought me one more. One towel to clean up the mess from the can he guaranteed. I cleaned what I could in the parking lot. In the time I cleaned my dash and the majority of the foam out, the 2 other cans exploded outside my vehicle and got all over the ground and my exterior car. At no point was any assistance offered for this beer the owner knew had the can defect. I went inside and showed him photos and while you verbally apologized, no actions were shown. When I was refunded. He gave me $7. The beer was worth $10. He couldn't even bother to check the price before refunding me. I tried to reach out to them via FB Messenger to try and resolve the issue but they never responded. I have spent thousands on beer here between me and my wife. We would go in weekly for lunch and beer to take home if not multiple times in a week. This was handled poorly. No compensation for the trip back, the mess or even the appropriate amount for the beer. There are other shops like Which Craft in Austin or Hyde Park Market that can get this type of selection.

hey my first time,here very impressive little store. It has,wine,beer and other knickknacks. It's also part diner, friendly courteous service and pretty good coffee. A new stop on my morning walk,when in Round Rock.I deafly will stop again and enjoy some of the other offerings of this store

Bbq chicken pizza was delicious! The crust was perfect and light. Could have used a little more bbq sauce but no complaints! Everything tasted fresh and the pizza came out quick.

This bar/gastro pub,always keeps great beer on tap, and the food is amazing, I love the patty melt add bacon, on toasted rye bread.

An absolute gem of an establishment. AMAZING food! AMAZING beer selection. AMAZING service! AMAZING group of regular patrons. A true community of good vibes.

Excellent wine selection. You will be very pleased. I am a bit of a wine snob so if you like great wine, check out this place.

We initially tried this place since it was the only one open past 10 PM on a weekday. We didn't know what to expect since the restaurant looked like a gas station convenience store from the outside. But boy, were we pleasantly surprised! The place had a nice selection of pizzas, gourmet burgers, paninis, and other yummy appetizer options. Not only that, they had a great selection of beer on tap and even a variety of wines. We tried the Wagyu Beef and Greek Burgers with fries and house chips. The Wagyu Burger was nice and juicy, complete with all of the condiments to complement the thick homemade patty. The price was a little expensive at $12 and after trying the High Country Burger ($9) during our past visit, we recommend getting that for the better deal. This Greek Burger was new to their menu and also surpassed our expectations. The thin slices of lamb were well seasoned and the pretzel bun was delicious. All of their burgers are served with their freshly made house chips or can be substituted for fries for only $1 more. Both the chips and fries are fried to perfection and served with their famous rosemary ketchup. Yum! And not to forget, the owner of the market is very friendly and will happily customize your order to your taste. Looks like we've found our new favorite place for late night yums :)

I used to come to this place back in the beginning of the year during lunch and was always very pleased. I came back here last week with some people from work and ordered the pulled pork again like I did in the past. The pulled pork was a bit pricey and it seemed to not be as good as it used to be. I never had a problem paying the price when I first started coming here but something was off. The sandwich seemed to lack flavor this time. The bread was too much and not that tasty. I feel like $10 for the pulled pork was just not worth it. I thought about ordering a pizza for everyone but those are also over priced. I've had their pizza once before, but they are just not worth the price. I've never tried any of their food besides pizza and pulled pork. Their house chips are good, so that's a plus.

Food is great, but they need to update their information. Phone number rings off the hook without an answer, and kitchen times are WAY OFF. Menu shows breakfast available at 630am, but when I went in to get food...they said their kitchen doesn't open until 11am...seems pretty counter intuitive when serving breakfast items...
