The Cottage Kitchen at the Charles S. Cock House Museum, located at 400 E. Hopkins Street, will be serving lunch from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. on Friday, May 11.

This week’s luncheon will be hosted by Central Texas Medical Center (CTMC) will host and will be serving Chicken Fried Steak with sides and homemade desserts and a drink (tea, coffee or water) and all for only $8 (cash and checks accepted only)!

All proceeds from the lunch will benefit the Heritage Association of San Marcos, an organization that supports the preservation of historic buildings and celebrates the culture and traditions that beautify and enrich the San Marcos community.

CTMC‘s facility originated in 1923 as Hays County Soldiers, Sailors and Marines Memorial Hospital. Today, Central Texas Medical Center is a 178-bed hospital providing a wide range of complex healthcare services in San Marcos, Texas and neighboring communities. The CTMC staff of over 700 employees works with more than 220 active and consulting physicians.

Cottage Kitchen began more than 40 years ago inside the Charles S. Cock home, a historic stone house that is now listed in the National Register. Charles S. Cock was a pioneer and a former mayor of San Marcos.

The Heritage Association of San Marcos is a non-profit organization chartered in 1975 to support the preservation of buildings, historical sites and archives as well as to perpetuate traditions that beautify and enrich the community life of this city.

The Association grew out of the San Marcos Bicentennial Commission, which was formed in 1972 to plan and coordinate the city’s celebration of the nation’s Bicentennial in 1976. Since its founding, the Heritage Association has been responsible for many beloved community traditions, including the traditional Friday luncheons at the Cottage Kitchen.
