Royers Round Top Café
The legendary café on the square — famous pies, grilled quail, and a line that's worth it. A Round Top rite of passage.
The Little Cheese Shop
Boards, provisions, and the makings of a cabin picnic.
7 milesHenkel Square, Round Top, TX
At Henkel Square, the Little Cheese Shop is a cheese-lover's happy place: curated boards, cheeses and charcuterie, wine, and grab-and-go bites. It's exactly what you want when you'd rather assemble a beautiful spread back at the cabin than sit down for another full meal.
Pick up a board's worth of goodies and a bottle, and your porch becomes the best table in Round Top.
