  • NileGuide Expert Says:

    The sprawling wooden deck just off the cafe draws multi-tasking mothers who mingle and eat while keeping an eye on the children's playscape.


  • Description:

    • Whether it's a quick lunch or leisurely dinner on the deck, this cafe goes way beyond expectations for a grocery-store eatery. As Central Market is no ordinary grocery store, so Cafe on the Run is no pedestrian deli. Soups, salads and sandwiches are all executed with creative flair; for instance, the roast beef sandwich is dressed up with brie, and the turkey with havarti. Dinner entrees such as pecan-crusted trout could make you swear off cooking completely. Ingredients are fresh, and most of them are available at the adjacent grocery. And if you don't want to exercise your sweet tooth, stay away from the bakery case. The creme brulee and Italian Cream Cake will tempt you every time. A second location, minus the child's playground, can be found at 4477 S Lamar Blvd Austin, TX 78745 (+1 512 899 4300.)

      Central Market South Lamar

    • I shop here once a week and sometimes dine in the cafe'. It's all good. Stay away from the bakery. There's too many choices of delicious desserts and you'll end...
