Where do Katy ladies meet for lunch? You don't have to look too far. You can find them at restaurants throughout town where they leisurely visit, host meetings or celebrate special occasions.
Groups of Katy women regularly meet up after volunteering or working out, or during their lunch breaks. They faithfully return to their favorite local eateries for the atmosphere, unique menu items and specialty drinks. We've selected nine special places in town where ladies love to lunch!
