Guenther House

Frommer's Review

If you're not staying in a King William B&B, this is your chance to visit one of the neighborhood's historic homes. And the food is a winner. Hearty breakfasts and light lunches are served both indoors -- in a pretty Art Nouveau-style dining room added on to the Guenther family residence (built in 1860) -- and outdoors on a trellised patio. The biscuits and gravy are a morning specialty, and the chicken salad (made with black olives) at lunch is excellent, but you can't go wrong with any of the wonderful baked goods made on the premises, either. Adjoining the restaurant are a small museum, a Victorian parlor, and a mill store featuring baking-related items, including mixes for lots of the Guenther House goodies. The house fronts a lovely stretch of the San Antonio River.
