Got picked for a jury this week.
I'm needing recommendations for good and quick lunch spots within walking distance of the court building.
Since I hardly ever went to Bryan, I've never paid attention to previous posts.

Thanks.

How is papa Perez? It looks close as well.
Subway is always a possibility but I would like to try some of the other offerings before moving away.

Papa Perez is good option with lunch specials. Wife likes far better than casa rod. Lots of Mexican options, San Jose, mi famila, even El sol if you walk fast. Lunch specials at longhorn also. Huge number of Options even upscale like atkm makes jury duty less burdensome than in the old days.

It's restaurant week so lots of places are having lunch specials

We ate at 3rd on Main today. It was good but not amazing.

I really like Taco Crave.

I had 6 days of Jury Duty and discovered Mr. G's Pizza in the process. That's the best damn pizza in the Brazos Valley. Ate there two more times.

Village Cafe but they're not always quick. We call ahead and it's ready when we get there.

I think Papa Perez is pretty good, decent texmex with good chips and salsa and the service at lunch is usually lightning fast.

+1 for Margies, great flat top burger and tots.

Wait till you discover what a ****** the owner is.

OP: What do you consider "walking distance"? I think there's a McDonald's and Whataburger close-by.

You're in luck OP! It's Restaurant Week in Downtown Bryan! Details here.
We have almost 20 restaurants downtown, and even more within a few blocks of Main St. If you haven't been downtown lately - or ever - this is a good time to find something new. Almost every restaurant is participating in Restaurant Week, showcasing some great lunch and dinner options. No ticket to buy.

And Barstool - give him another try. He's got some good stories.

So what if Mr. G is an a**h***? Doesn't change the fact that the pizza is pretty darn great.

Whataburger and McDonald's are 1/2 mile from the courthouse. Quite a bit further than most other downtown places.

Didnt meet him, but his wife was super nice to me. Even sat and chatted with me for a moment on the second visit.

Giving a 15min/mile pace, el sol and some of the ones I know are pushing it to get back inside of an hour.
Depending on if I can get my parking validated more than once I could go to wienschnitzel or some others.

Thanks for the recommendations.

Must Be Heaven has always been my first choice when on jury duty. One of the closest to the courthouse and I've never been disappointed.

Cilantro and rx pizza are both within walking distance. Also, maddens but not sure how quick their lunch service would be.

Hot Dogs Etc. hands down. Best place in Texas, and you will see that in all the magazines.

Thanks for the help.
One day tried RX, one day only had time to grab subway, yesterday had just enough time to try 3rd on Main.

RX was very good. Lunch special was nice with plenty of food.
3rd on Main was also good.

Trial is over so I don't know if I will get to try any others.
