Check Out the March 2017 TEXAS MONTHLY feature article highlighting RITUAL as one of the best "off the beaten path" places to eat in Texas!
“‘Revive your soul’ with its from-scratch fare—deviled eggs with truffle oil, butternut squash soup with local fig and pecan compote, rose lattes—as well as its holistic apothecary and wellness center. ”
— JORDAN BREAL (Texas Monthly)

Love love love this place! Food, service and atmosphere are all impeccable. The owner is really nice and friendly. I really recommend this restaurant, I would drive a good distance just to come here.

This French-Inspired Cafe Hiding Deep In The Piney Woods Of East Texas Is An Unexpected Treasure

Delicious brunch spot with cool French vibes and aesthetics. A BLTOA with chips, best homemade pickles I have ever tasted, and a sizable slice of strawberry cake later...I was left wondering....should I order another sandwich to have in my hotel room to shamelessly enjoy??? Totally worth the visit. Also a great spot for light business conversation. I will definitely be back!!

**Where to Stay, Eat, and Retreat in East Texas**

Found this hidden gem on a Google review. Ritual did not disappoint! The ambiance and vibes are welcoming & inviting. The food was out of this world. And the owner, Whitney took the time to visit with me and made me feel like a rockstar. Cannot rave enough about Ritual. I will be driving back from Dallas with the family next time to come visit this place again. Bravo!

Absolute gem in the heart of downtown Jacksonville. Food and drinks are wonderful and the owner is lovely. Have grown up here and it’s great to see local businesses like this start to show up downtown! Visit every time we are in the area and are never disappointed. — A

**Meet Whitney W. Graham of Ritual in Jacksonville**

Such a gem of a place! There is such beautiful decor, and a great atmosphere. I would definitely recommend the chai latte. It was one of the best I’ve ever had. The food was delicious and served on the prettiest plates. Everyone was so nice and made us feel welcome. Lots of healthy options. I would definitely recommend this place to a friend.

**Slow down and enjoy RITUAL, a luncheonette, apothecary and wellness studio**

Stopped here on a trip through the state. The decor was absolutely beautiful. The tea was fragrant and flavorful. The food was delicious and everything looked as wonderful as it tasted. Service was impeccable. Above and beyond the standard. I highly recommend. — Alexandra

RITUAL TEXAS

A perfectly quaint surprise tucked in downtown Jacksonville. The beautiful venue serves as a lovely backdrop to a delicious lunch. One is encouraged to enjoy their time, food and company. My partner and I both loved the signature Lattes. Our food was served at the perfect temperature quickly. I see how this luncheonette made a Texas Monthly list!
