What People Are Saying About Twin Sisters Bakery & Cafe

Citysearch

The Scene – Officially, there are two Twin Sisters restaurants. But thank goodness, like the best parents of couplets, the restaurants' owners (yes, in fact, twin sisters) didn't feel the need to force exact replicas out of their creations. A larger space, longer hours and a dollop more spunk keep the Alamo Heights location attuned to its slight rocker edge, despite the lunching ladies and Heights-ites who dine here daily. – – The Food – Although the definition is a loose one, Twin Sisters is generously recognized as one of the city's few veggie-friendly restaurants.…

Very disappointing

by Markb

My wife and I heard about this place a few times, and thought we would try it out. We're vegetarian, so we ordered a couple of eggless sandwiches. We thought with the price of $7 that they would be substantial, and that the bread would be hardy, especially since chips and drink cost extra. When the sandwiches finally came, it took a while considering what we got, they were skippy things on bread that could have come right out of a typical grocery store. We didn't even get full. My wife had a cookie, and that was just as disappointing. Our advice, don't waste your hard earned money.

  • Pros: The toilet had the half flush for greenies like me
  • Cons: too expensive for what you got.

A juice box??

by Jeepster05

We wanted something light for lunch so stopped for soup and a sandwich. My husband ordered apple juice to start, and our server brought a cup of ice and a juice box, complete with straw attached to the back. After getting over our shock, it took a few moments to tear the top open to pour it into the glass of ice. It was either that or try to squeeze it from the straw. The soup ordered tasted fine but once again was suprised to see our half a sandwich had hardly any meat on it. There was one very thin slice.

I guess the bill was our fault for not looking more closely at the menu as our total for 2 orders of soup & sandwich (cup of soup & half a sandwich) with juice cost us $23!. But get this, that little juice box cost us $2.50. What??

The service was good but I would not recommend if you are watching your budget.

  • Pros: good service
  • Cons: expensive, small portions

great food

by gonemad

I am surprised at some of the reviews I read.....we ate at the downtown location everyday for lunch while visiting San Antonio. Looking for a place that had healthy options we were very impressed with the food. The staff was very friendly and the food was great. We tried something different every day and was pleased with everything we ate. Wish we had this place in Atlanta, it was excellent.
