This placed landed on the Michelin guide in 2024 and I can see why. This adorable counter serve diner takes you all the way back to the 40's-50's - as the interior feels like it was pulled right out of another time. It creates a homey feeling and elevates the dining experience. The place is small, seating is limited inside and out, and you will tend to be met with a line. its first come first serve so no reservations. We came on a Sunday morning and got a pitcher of Mimosas. It was a lot for our table, and when we ran out of OJ, they provided another portion no charge. We then got the 1915 Spudnut Donut - These were absolutely brilliant! Crunchy little fellas with a interior that melts in your mouth. I could chow down on these alone. For my entree, I got the classic french omelette with some caviar on top. The egg was cooked perfectly - smooth, buttery, tender and a warm, tasty hollandaise on top. The caviar was a fun addition on a classic breakfast item and the saltiness was a welcomed addition. It comes with some greens on the side with a simple vinaigrette, which was good. The staff was attentive, kind and helpful. I really had a wonderful experience here and would love to come back. It fills my heart with joy to see more unique dining options come to San Antonio and Cullum's Attaboy is just one of many to brighten the food scene in SA.

Food, service, ambiance are worth the hour and a half drive to San Antonio. Inconvenient parking is not a worry when walking back to your car because the experience is so cool. Worth every penny.

Super cute restaurant with a very homey feel. It's rather small, but there is a lot of outdoor seating as well. I came here with a friend for brunch, and my food was very good. I ordered a breakfast sandwich that came with home fries on the side. It was a pretty standard brunch- solid & tasty, but nothing overly note-worthy. I did find it was a great place to chat with a friend!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cullum's Attaboy, and I can confidently say it's an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, the vibe was welcoming and the atmosphere intimate yet vibrant. What really sets Attaboy apart is the creativity and quality behind each dish. I was honestly underwhelmed by the food pictures that others have posted, but I was completely wrong. Each dish was a delightful surprise- well presented and bursting with flavor. I like that there is self serve drip coffee alongside water. I highly recommend the spudnut donuts! The texture was to die for. I'll be back for sure and recommend it to anyone looking for an amazing dining experience that goes beyond the ordinary.

What a wonderful place to have breakfast! I loved everything about this small and beautiful restaurant. We had scramble eggs with truffles on toast. Yes the truffles were sublime and the scramble eggs were creamy and cooked to perfection but what really elevated this dish for me the toast was the right thickness to hold the eggs and it was toasted perfectly! I did find the price very eye watering but man did it taste good! We also had the spud nuts. It's texture was just right a chewy and soft at the same time. Service was very good there was a very long wait for my latte. However the wait staff tried their best by letting me know that there was long coffee line and they were very good clearing dishes and asking if we needed anything. A party sitting next to meet was opening up a bottle of champagne for breakfast and I thought that is how you should do it, especially at a place like Attaboy!

Cullum's Attaboy is known for their breakfast sandwiches, burgers, but then they also get fancy with caviar and truffle. The food was delicious! It's not a typical brunch restaurant in that you can't get like eggs, bacon, pancakes as a side, etc. I didn't love that it wasn't a sit down restaurant. You order at the front then sit down. But the atmosphere of the place is really cute! It wasn't what I was expecting, but I enjoyed it and want to try their sister restaurant down the street, Attagirl!

Met up with some friends here for brunch. Been to your sister restaurant attagirl so now wanted to try the attaboy. Cute little place, love the wooden furniture. I've never tried escargot and it was super bad. But it did look nice and made me feel fancy. The eggs were sooo good! I n always try to make my eggs like this but never could. I did add some hot sauce, I know I'm sorry it's just in my blood. I do wish they had maybe a spicy option? That would be interesting. For the desert I got the floating merengue? It was super good. Looked like a cloud and it had like berry chantitilly cream inside. Overall nice little brunch spot if you're craving French food.

This spot is class. I think they're French or something. I'll forgive them for that because they cook a mean breakky. And they do it all with a real nice subtle touch. The uniforms the napkins the people. Things are done well. Shits is S tier no cap

A gem in San Antonio. Cullum's Attaboy is somewhere between a French bistro and early 1900's San Antonio diner, serving an elevated brunch that will not be found anywhere else in this city. The staff wear white aprons and hats, classic jazz plays softly, and the space feels cozy yet effortlessly luxurious. The menu is concise yet interesting, featuring classics like pancakes and burgers, along with fine ingredients like escargots, truffles, and plenty of caviar. Order/pay at the counter, choose a table, and the staff will serve your food. Brunch for two set us back just under $100. Their Cortado was the best espresso drink I had in my 5 day visit to San Antonio. My husband's drip coffee was very good as well. Service was polite. You must order the 1915 Spudnuts. These are soft, pillowy donuts made from riced potatoes. Their exterior is delicately crisp, and the inside melts in your mouth and has a buttermilk pancake flavor. 10/10. Another must order is the Champagne Butter Poached Scallop. While $18 for two bites of food may seem steep, I assure you that it is well worth it. The scallop was delicately poached and impossibly tender, enhanced by a rich hollandaise and rainbow trout roe. The French Omelette was excellent, albeit slightly over salted. Skip the Baked Tomato French Toast. While a savory French toast sounded intriguing, it was ultimately an over baked salt/oil bomb. I quickly got palate fatigue. Regardless, this was my favorite meal in San Antonio, by far.
