I was fortunate to have been born in Hico, one of the last babies born in the hospital/clinic. My parents went to high school there. One of my ancestors was a founding father of Hico at the ORIGINAL location on Honey Creek. When the railroad came in about 2 miles from this location, the town moved to it's current location. I'm proud to have spent many Summers and weekends in this town. Many fond memories. My grandmother used to tell of listening to Brushy Bill talk of stories.

Used to live in stephenville Texas . That was nine years ago . Tarelton university was almost in my back yard . And summer sky treatment center was two blocks away . Expensive place to live with very little good jobs . Unless you drive to Dallas or ft. Worth .

You would think so, however last time I ate there the breading was very greasy and fell off way too easy. They place isn't the same it was at its peak a few years ago.

Koffee Kup Kafe' ie KKK was the meeting place of the local chapter of the klan. It's a sundown town. I'll never visit this place and I've lived in Central Texas for 20 years!

Was at Tarleton and I remember hearing about the Koffee Kup Kafe and its relation to the KKK and how good the pie is. I also think it was around 2017 they dropped the third K to just the Koffee Kup. Wiseman is fantastic chocolate though.

The only thing about the Coffee Cup, is when we ate their and went to pay it was cash only. I sure hope they have updated since about 8 years ago. Lol
