Cathy's Boardwalk Café serves a vital need for visitors to the town of Salado. After browsing through nearly 150 stores and touring the more than 130 structures listed on the National Register of Historic Buildings, visitors are going to work up a ferocious appetite. Cathy's comes through with hearty sandwiches served on homemade bread, fresh soups, crisp salads and sweet snacks. At Cathy's, "old fashioned" is a compliment of the highest order, especially in a town where the simple life is so celebrated.
