Featured In Wacoan: 57 Reasons To Love Waco

The Barnett’s Benedict – The perfect weekend starts with brunch and J.S. Barnett’s Whiskey House is one of my top places in Waco. My go-to brunch dish is an Eggs Benedict, and the Barnett’s Benedict is a delicious twist on this classic! Served on a toasted biscuit instead of an English muffin, the poached egg is paired with a slice of brie elavating the tang of the hollandaise with its creamy, buttery taste. I personally swap out the bacon topping for the classic smoked ham. — Emily Ober

Barnett’s Whiskey House – Coming to Texas from the county with the second highest Irish population per capita in the entire COUNTRY, I arrived praying to see an Irish flag hanging outside a bar. Thankfully, J. S. Barnett’s Whiskey House has my back! With cider on tap (a blessing for my gluten-free, Irish self) and the cozy charm of any Irish pub, Barnett’s is my favorite spot to pop into to feel right at home! — Jenna McKillop
