CENTER POINT, TEXAS ON THE MAP

Chef Brian Montgomery has brought to life the oldest building in Kerr County through his hill country eatery and bar with a menu that focuses on locally sourced food and drinks from around the region.

Montgomery is a pioneer in farm-to-table dining and wows his patrons with an evolving menu that includes everything from steaks and burgers to empanadas. “Fresh, local ingredients are key in our signature dishes. We use only Wagyu beef from Peeler Farms and get our pork from Zanzenberg Farms,” said Montgomery. “Zanzenberg Tavern offers Pint and Plow beer, a fine selection of wine and is very cocktail forward. In fact, we just recently solidified our cocktail menu that took months to develop.”

“We have also recently added First Sunday Brunch, Reverse Happy Hour and Woodfired Wednesdays where we cook everything outside on the woodfired grill,” added Brian.

The atmosphere at Zanzenberg Tavern is enhanced by its beautifully restored, historic setting. The Story family recently renovated this former mercantile store and post office, bringing it back to its original beauty. According to Montgomery, “The twenty-four-inch-thick limestone walls, rough timber framing, expansive zinc bar and a lush patio full of locals, travelers and often live music really create the perfect backdrop for what we envisioned for this tavern.”
