Frommer's Review
If you want to avoid overpriced sandwiches and junk food while sightseeing, join the downtown working crowd at this bakery and health-food cafe just a few blocks from the Alamo. Eggless and meatless doesn't mean tasteless here -- you can get great Greek salads, spicy tofu scrambles, and salsa-topped veggie burgers -- but carnivores can also indulge in the likes of ham, pastrami, and salami sandwiches on the excellent bread made on the premises.
Tip: This popular place fills up by 11:30am but empties after 12:45pm, so gauge your visit accordingly. A branch in Alamo Heights, 6322 N. New Braunfels (tel. 210/822-2265), has longer hours (Mon-Fri 7am-9pm; Sat 7am-3pm; Sun 9am-2pm).
Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
