Centerpoint Station of San Marcus


The bakery at Centerpoint Station opens at 7 a.m. daily which is great for take-outs if you're local or for road food if you're on a trip on I-35.  Look at the size of those Kolaches!



Centerpoint is located on the westside service road for I-35 at Exit 200 where the Centerpoint Outlet Mall is.  The restaurant opens for lunch at 11 a.m.  This is a great roadside stop if you're on a trip between San Antonio and cities north such as Austin, Waco, or Dallas-Fort Worth.  For more information about Centerpoint go to http://www.centerpointstation.com.


Bakery for Breakfast



Ham Kolache:


Nice smooth taste to this Kolache.  Great for lunch as well as breakfast.  Makes great road food.


Sausage Kolache:



This one's spicy and that's why I love it.  Also makes great road food.


Bacon Kolache:


This one's loaded with bacon and will be a mess in the car.  Get it anyway!



Pecan Roll:


Not all of the pecan rolls fit snug in a large to-go box.  Usually I get my to-go pastries after I eat my lunch at Centerpoint, but this roll was twice as large as the others so I purchased it immediately before anyone else grabbed it up.




Lunch in the Restaurant:



Cheese Burger:


What can I say, the burgers are large and the meat is great.  And they give you mayo in a cup instead of one of those horrible squeeze bags that don't open well.



Chicken Salad Croissant:


Usually I don't eat healthy for my blog, but the chicken salad was loaded with mayo and that made it okay.  See how flaky the croissant is ... that's the real thing!



Grilled Chicken Salad:


I would eat this dish for dinner when I'm trying to wind down my fat and carb and calorie intake for the day.  But not for lunch.



Bacon-Turkey Club Sandwich: 


This sandwich is loaded with bacon.  And a great bun as well.  I gave the bacon first billing over the turkey because there was more bacon than turkey on the club.



Sides



Homemade Chips:


If you are getting one of Centerpoint's huge sandwiches, you will be hard pressed to eat half of these wonderful chips.  I just toss a few drops of hot sauce in the ranch for a spicy dip.




Fried Pickles:


Golden fried whole pickles: they're rich so I was able to eat only one and a half of these.  Unfortunately deep fried foods don't nuke well later.
