Union Hall - Waco — Restaurant in Waco

Update: *This location ha NO AIR CONDITIONING right now DUE TO AN AIR CONDITIONING OUTAGE THROUGH THE ENTIRE BUILDING. And in order to continue making the MOST money they possibly can theyve decided it was NOT a priority to them to post that information online or even so much as on a flyer of the door. It is 100° today and they would rather let people come all the way to their facility with their families to eat before finding out that it's hotter inside than it is out. It seems pretty selfish to not let people know some way ahead of time. You could have done it on Facebook or even Google. You could clearly see the air conditioning has been out for days at the very least. They have shock fans blowing in your face in the dining area throughout the entire building. The problem is they're just blowing extremely hot air from all the different restaurants cooking inside without any type of ventilation into the room! -----We often take our family and friends that come to visit from out of town to Union hall. There's such a wide variety of food and every single spot has delicious items! Our favorite here is "Curry up and Wok This Way." They have the best green curry you have ever been served. Another thing that could be seen as a negative or a positive about Union Hall is that the restaurants that fill all the spots in the food court rotate out pretty much annually. So if you like getting to try new things all the time it would be great for you. I wish they could keep more of the food stations filled and leased out. Currently about half of union hall is empty. But there's still about eight different spots delicious to eat at in there. Also check out the Bloody Marys at the bar location! Excellent customer service...

After a day in Waco at the Cameron Park Zoo with our kids and grandkids on a Sunday, we were looking for a place to eat. We decided to give Union Hall a try because there was so much variety in food options. Great choice! The location is downtown and there is some free street parking and a small lot next to Union Hall that is free, but free parking is limited. There are several paid parking lots across the street that charge $3/hour or $10/day, cash only. The Union Hall layout is interesting with rows of food vendors and tables scattered between them. There are some larger seating areas, and we had no trouble finding a table for 5 adults and 2 children at around 2:30 pm.

So many choices! Here’s a summarized rundown of what we got: Domo Sushi – Happy Roll and Shrimp Tempura Armstrong’s Bayou Café – Jambalaya Pasta Bayou Po’boys – Alligator Sausage Po’boy on French Bread The Village Pizza-ria – Village Throwback Pizza and Double Pepperoni Pizza Pupusa Paradise – Watermelon Cup

Bottom Line, no complaints, the food was great. I recommend you try the alligator sausage po’boy if you want something different. The sausage is very good, and it’s a well put together sandwich (the crusty French bread was excellent!). The pizza toppings could have been distributed a little better, but that’s such a minor thing because the pizza was outstanding! Really no negatives for any of the food and we would get them all again, but why would you when there are so many other choices! If you are in Waco looking for something unique and different with a lot of food options, I highly recommend that you go check out Union Hall. It’s...

I liked the fact that Union Hall has several choices of foods. However, it had far too many Asian, BBQ & Burger places; and not enough Comfort Foods and Breakfast food places. Surprisingly, there were very few Mexican restaurants in the Hall.

For me, it was a lot of walking before I could decide what to eat. I was tired and sore by the time we left. I would not recommend this place to the disabled. It is too hard to get around and there are no comfortable places to sit.

The one food booth that I would recommend ... and it was a surprise ... was a lady near the middle of the first row next to the end by the north parking lot (sorry, I can't remember her name). She sells homemade fried pies and small pies. I did not realize until after I had eaten at the Cajun restaurant booth (which was good) that this lady sold more than just "dessert pies". I discovered after I had already eaten that she also made "meat pies" of various kinds. She had Sheppard's Pie, Chicken Pot Pie, a special kind of spicy Pot Pie and several more! I ended up buying some to take home, along with several dessert pies. OMG!! They were all to die for!

My husband couldn't stop raving about them! The crust was so flakey and divine! I was glad I had eaten at another place for lunch, because we ate two of the pot pies for dinner! Then my husband and I split a chocolate pie for dessert. What a treat! It made all that walking worth it.

I'm not sure, but I think she calls herself, "The Pie Lady." I know she has a repeat customer...
