San Antonio may be a chips-and-salsa kind of city, but there are still plenty of restaurants that offer complimentary bread instead of the classic Tex-Mex pairing. Free bread is always a perk worth noting during a dining experience, but not all buns are created equal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A recent online discussion in the San Antonio Restaurants Facebook group<\/a> generated more than 100 comments about restaurants with the best bread while you wait. While many local restaurants were mentioned, the majority favored chain restaurants that often provide complimentary bites before ordering food for the table. Read on for more about the restaurants locals say have the best free bread.<\/p>\n It’s somewhat unsurprising that Texas Roadhouse got the most shout-outs for bread, because those hot rolls with the honey-cinnamon butter are famous. We even did our own taste test<\/a> when H-E-B started carrying the frozen version.\u00a0<\/p>\n Red Lobster was the number two pick for the best bread while you wait, as several folks mentioned the cheddar bay biscuits that come straight to the table. The biscuits are, in a word, delicious, but be wary not to fill up too much, especially when there’s endless shrimp on the line<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n You mean to tell me Cheddar’s is out here<\/a> giving away one free honey butter croissant to each customer who dines in? It’s understandable why these seemingly tasty treats were on people’s minds. Get thee to a Cheddar’s!<\/p>\n Is anyone else astounded that The Cheesecake Factory<\/a>, known for its notoriously large menu, also offers complimentary bread service? Expect a basket of assorted breads to arrive around the same time you do when you visit this chain.\u00a0<\/p>\n It’s no secret that Olive Garden<\/a> is known for its breadsticks, and apparently, San Antonio locals can’t get enough of these bottomless bites.\u00a0<\/p>\n
