Yes.

Visit our Medical Center location at 9630 Huebner Rd or our River Walk location at 849 E Commerce St, open 24/7.
Is Alamo Biscuit Co. a Family-Friendly Restaurant?
Absolutely. We built Alamo Biscuit Co. to be a place where everyone at the table finds something they love, from grandparents who want a classic biscuit and gravy to little ones who just want a pancake. Our founder, John Vale, started this restaurant with one goal: make breakfast the most fun meal of the day. Families have been part of that story since we opened our first kitchen on Huebner Road in 2019.
Summer break is the perfect time to make it a family tradition. Bring the kids for a pancake breakfast, meet the grandparents for Sunday brunch, or stop in after a morning on the River Walk.

Our kids' menu is for children 12 and under. Every kids' entrée comes with one side: fruit or fries at Medical Center; fruit, fries or tots at River Walk.

Do You Have Options for Allergies and Special Diets?
Yes. Any pancake or waffle plate can be made gluten friendly, and our plant-based menu has vegetarian and vegan dishes. Because everything is prepared in a shared kitchen, cross-contact can happen and we can't guarantee any item is 100% gluten-free. If someone in your family has celiac disease or a food allergy, please tell your server so our team can help you choose safely.
Is There Room for Big Families and Groups?
Yes. Our River Walk restaurant seats up to 250 guests inside and on a 1,200-square-foot patio overlooking the San Antonio River. Coming with a big crew for a birthday, reunion or after-church brunch? Reserve a table ahead, or ask about private events. Please note that gratuity is included for parties of 6 or more.
