Typical greasy spoon type Resteraunt. Pleasant service staff, good burgers, like you remember from your childhood. Large portions. Everyone in the place knows each other. Food coma afterwards. Only downside is it's sort of pricey for what it is but everything is today. read more

Definitely worth a stop if you're going through Winnsboro (like I was) or if you live there. Call ahead because the place is small and busy (even at 2:30 pm). The large cheeseburger was very tasty and the fries were hot and good. My son liked the chocolate shake more than I did but that won't stop this from getting 5 stars. Nice little mom and pop burger joint. read more

Good burgers, and then, a platter that needs improvement (bacon half cooked, fries soggy) but, all in all, more good than bad and a solid joint in the 'boro based on maybe a dozen trips. Definitely the best burger in town by a wide margin read more

I travel the state of LA on the regular and 95% of the time I'm all about the destination and never about the journey... but in my travels on the eastern side of this great state I regularly have to pass through the small town of Winnsboro and I've always noticed that this place is jammed when I've passed and because of that I've always made a mental note to try this joint out should the opportunity ever arise... Well on 10/29/14 the opportunity finally presented itself as I completed my business in Bastrop earlier than expected and I knew I'd be passing through around lunchtime.... as expected when I arrived the parking lot was slam full and I had to park across the street in a gravel lot....PRO TIP: if traveling through a small town and you see a crowded parking lot at a eating joint take note cause the food's good! Now this joint ain't no Taj Mahal but more like hole in the wall if it was located anywhere but Winnsboro... Seating is all booths and they have 15... might sound like alot but it ain't.... to put the size of the place into perspective let me just say you couldn't cuss a cat in there without getting hair in your mouth.... Now you order and pay at the counter and they give you a number and when they call your number you head back to the counter and grab your food.... menu is located on a board above the counter... in addition to burgers they offer a catfish plate (fried of course) poboys and sandwiches.... They also do breakfast from 6:30 to 10:30.. Now I went with the burger since that is right in the name...Big John w/ cheese and an order of "Cajun" fries... and brutha that mutha was some kinda good, perfect flavor to grease to condiment ratio! They piled on the pickles, lettuce and onion and that patty was hanging out over the edge of the bun but I gotta say that everything I saw come out of that kitchen looked delicious and all the locals were definitely feeling the fried catfish plate as many orders as I saw being carried to various tables.... So this is definitely on my stop in list if I'm passing thru Winnsboro and have a hunger on! read more

Traveling through this small community I found Big John's because of my Yelp app! The parking lot was full which was a good sign. Despite the crowd we got our food ordered and was ready quickly. We had the Big John's cheeseburgers and onion rings. Both are highly recommended! Delicious read more

A visit to Winnsboro isn't complete without a stop at this local joint for a Big Johns Burger. I usually call my order in ahead of time (for myself and any others that want to partake), and pick up 15 minutes later. The burgers are old fashion... None of that frozen, packaged, uniform burgers. Every burger is made with love... And lots of love, cuz I can usually make 2 meals out of a burger. read more

Big John's definitely lives up to its name. The burger I ordered was HUGE. I was barely able to finish the burger, much less the plate of fries that came with it. I was definitely stuffed when we left. I can see why my GF wanted me to try this place out while we were in town. It was good, old fashioned burgers and definitely deserved the reputation the locals give it! read more

Has always been a great place to eat. My favorite is there catfish plate with Cajun fries.

Great old fashioned burger! Staff is friendly. Typical greasy spoon fare. This is a great pit stop on my travels. Small place though, this place is packed with locals. They have ice cream too! read more

Excellent open faced roast beef and inside seating. Fast friendly service. Everything looked really good especially the burgers.

Good burgers and pretty big too. The price isn't bad either. Staff was friendly but preoccupied with thier friends.

This is one of my most favorite places in town to eat. Best burgers An shakes in town. They have great po-boys an all kinds of sides. They serve breakfast but only in the mornings. Closed on Sunday. But hey who likes to miss church. All in all great place to take your family. The food is so good. read more

Everything tastes like OLD grease... not cheap prices, either. And they close at least one hour ahead of the posted time. Evening staff very unfriendly. Order your ice cream with breakfast. The machine is shut down shortly thereafter. read more

Small home town authentic hamburgers!! A lot of food for the money! Very neat atmosphere.

Most favorite place in town to eat when I visit my mom, grew up eating Big John's Burger. It's still the same! Try the open face cheeseburger plate, your southern taste buds won't be disappointed. Grab a milk shake and enjoy the locals' company. Sure to catch a laugh or two while dinning in or hear a "story". Small but inviting, fast friendly service with a smile. read more
