Burger was very fulfilling. Veggie Freak burger with a lot of flavor and the cheese was so melty and good. The wings that were mildly spicy. Staff was friendly! Parking I'd recommend by Coco's cafe on street or behind the Target or down the road in the alleys and walking. Great place when you want to eat out, especially in the evening time. I'd recommend going at eight/nine (that is the time these photos were taken) and it was so relaxing and the heat wasn't really felt. read more

Pretty cute place in downtown Austin fir burgers and chicken tenders! Organized as a kiosk in the corner of the building they do have Wagyu-style burgers and I ended up having the biggest one without the bun! Seating is outdoors which on a cloudy and a windy day was a downside! However, service was good and burger fantastic...so definitively worth it... read more

I'm not one to try a food trunk or a food stand but I'm glad I have this burger joint a chance! I had a single patty Wagyu with cheese and it was very moist, favorably and tasty. I'm surprised this place doesn't have more reviews! Check them out! read more

Stopped in here while staying nearby for business. A quick glance at the posted menu I went for the veggie burger. I ordered and it took about 5 minutes for my order to be ready. Veggie burger in hand off I went. The burger was very good. The bun was lacking in much texture (probably part of the appeal) and it's certainly not health food. However I enjoyed the caloric indulgence, the flavors were great. The sitting Area outside looked nice and inviting though it is right along the street. A good experience overall. read more

A+ for that and free fries Friday with an awesome burger!! exceeded expectations!! read more

The food is great and the service is even better! Vivian was amazing! The seating area is a little small but cozy i would for sure recommend! read more

What a solid little hole in the wall right by our hotel. We stopped by before going to a comedy show and I was pleasantly surprised. The burgers are smash burgers that pack a lot of flavor and cooked perfectly. The sauce they put on top is interesting but goes well with the burger. They have string cut fries they are really good and you get a ton of them. The had two employees working and they were awesome. Very friendly and answered our questions. Our food came out fairly fast and was piping hot. I'd for sure come back to here and grab a burger. read more

As Kenji Lopez-Alt would say: Now that is a tasty burger. I mean seriously. It was tasty. It's gotta be one of the top 3-5 burgers I've had in my life. Granted, it was a wagyu burger. And the meat was from some super authentic farm in Wyoming. So maybe it's not fair to compare it to other burgers I've got because it's not apples-to-apples. On the other hand, maybe it is! If they went out of their way to get a different type of meat and it makes the burger better, good for them! Anyway, yeah, the meat was just amazing. Juicy and meaty are the two words that come to mind. It had the right amount of salt. A little charred flavor, a hint of smokiness. But juicy and meaty are really the big ones. The cheese was also great. It too had some sort of a bit intense umami vibe to it. A slight bit tangy too. And the bun was toasted (and buttered?) just the right amount. The fries were and chicken tenders were just ok. Not on the same level as the burger. The fries had a solid crisp to them, but didn't have that sorta fresh potato flavor that I look for. Y'know what I mean? Sometimes you can taste the potato, and it's a little soft and light on the inside. And other times you can just taste the fried oily crispy stuff, like at McDonalds. These were the latter, but that's ok. The chicken tenders were fine. I would have liked more of a juicy, meaty, chicken-y bite to em, but they were still better than most places. And the ranch was fine, nothing special. A little light on flavor. All of this talk about fries and chicken is really moot though. Who cares?!?! You're here for the BURGER! And like I said, it's a tasty burger. For like 12 bucks nonetheless. Go get yourself one and eat it while it's hot. read more

Came into town for a concert, wanted a burger and found this little place. Ate a double meat that left me very full , excellent taste with every bite and the bun was nice and toasted. The fries were delicious and the chocolate shake was Devine. If around this are highly recommend. But what even made the experience better was the employee Vivian for Miss V as I now call her. Well worth the time read more

Loved the smash burger and special sauce. Their fries are great and flavorful. I only wish they stored them in a different container because the top quarter of them were incredible and after that they were soggy as all heck. Next time, gotta dump them out right away to avoid that. I like that they offer wagyu, though we just had the regular, but that's a cool feature. Overall great burger. Didn't have crispy edges or anything like some high caliber smash burgers, but it was solid. read more

This burger was so juicy and so good. It came dressed normally, but you already know Burger Bar has a special BB sauce they put on it and IT WAS GREAT!! It was super affordable and so amazing. Everyone needs to try Burger Bar. The chicken tenders were also absolutely DELICIOUS!!! They had a great crisp to them and the breading tasted so good by itself. read more

If you're looking for a good burger or chicken sandwich for takeout near the UT campus then look no further than Burger Bar Campus! I recently came by and got their: - Double Cheeseburger: no frills, nothing fancy - just a good ol fashioned burger that'll definitely hit the spot. I personally like it more than P. Terry's which is across the street. ($7.75) - 3.75/5 - Crispy Chicken Tender Sandwich: this one surprised me!! So they hand-batter 3 pieces of chicken tenders which comes out with a nice, crisp outside, tender, juicy inside and damn y'all. Absolute fire. Definitely get this one if you had to choose between the two! ($5.75!) - 4.75/5 - Queso Cheese Fries: it ain't a burger/sandwich without fries and honestly, just pay 65¢ more and get the queso blanco - you'll thank me later. An amazing price for queso fries too! ($3.50) - 4.25/5 - Shakes: they got the classic flavors and then a shake of the month. Strawberry is a no-brainer for the classics, highly refreshing on a hot day. (3.75/5) The shake of the month when I went was horchata and DAMN this should be a permanent flavor tbh! So flavorful! (4.5/5) - ($5/ea) All in all, I enjoyed this place and think it's one of the better spots for food in the UT campus area. Y'all, definitely check them out! I rate them a 4.25/5 overall for having some great items and some amazing ones! read more

Pro's: tasty burger, decent prices, and super fast prep Con's: missing ingredients, no napkins, lack of overall flavor Did a B1G1 double burger with pickles and onions. Was ready super quick and the price was excellent. Even without the B1G1 a double burger was like $8. I guess it's a lot for a fast food joint which is what they're competing with, but good for a restaurant, right? I dunno, I don't get burgers a lot anymore. They forgot my pickles. They didn't give me any napkins or ketchup in my bag. I went back for ketchup as I hadn't driven away yet and they gave me a lot, and I needed every packet. The burger itself tasted good but the overall sandwich was pretty bland. Like complete lack of sauce. I don't get it. read more

We go here pretty often so it's good. It's not a sit down restaurant but they have an area you can eat and stand if you want to. We often take away their burgers. My only issue is that if one person order waygu and the other orders a regular burger, they don't mark the containers so you can't tell the difference. We tried a taste test and to me there's not really a difference. But it's a pretty good burger. I love their bun, and the meat is really really . The fries are pretty bomb as well, the queso ones too Can be pricey but does taste good! read more

Pretty good for a quick lunch. Just walk up to the counter and place your order. The staff is friendly and they'll get your order out quick. My biggest complaint is they don't have any seating whatsoever. You just stand at one of two tables on the sidewalk. This would be miserable in the Texas summer. Luckily, I stopped by when the weather was nice. My bacon cheeseburger was really juicy and tasty. One of the best fast-food burgers I've had. The fries were crispy and almost addicting. The queso sauce on the side was eh: not strong enough and looked artificial. The chocolate/vanilla shake was okay: not my favorite flavor and not filled up all the way, but it had a nice thick consistency. Tip: dip the fries in the shake (trust me, it's better). This place is probably good for hungry and busy college students. Your average folks, maybe not so much. read more

I've heard Burger Bar really hyped up, but I wasn't impressed. This is a convenient takeaway counter attached to the Otis Hotel near campus. The wait time can get pretty long, so I recommend ordering online ahead for pickup. I've had their hamburger and crispy chicken sandwich. The hamburger was so small and scanty. It tasted like any other cheap burger chain. The chicken sandwich was much better. read more

I usually don't get everything on my burger but I highly suggest you try it. The single patty burger was gas but the fries need to catch up with the burger. read more

The chicken sand which was good! Very filling and I really enjoyed how crispy the chicken was. I did take once star off for service. It was one other guest and me who ordered and it took awhile and the cooks kept getting our orders confused. They seemed upset and like there was some miscommunication going on between them. There is no place to sit and eat so I had to take my food back to my hotel. I would go back and try the burger. read more

HIDDEN GEM ALERT!!! This place is awesome! I ordered from this place on whim and man was i pleased! The food was so delicious. The burger was the perfect classic burger. I liked that the meat wasn't too heavy, the veggies were fresh, and the bacon I added on it was perfectly crisp. The chicken tenders were tasty too. As well as the cheese fries and shake. I ordered a lot of food but it was all UNDER $20! Look at the receipt, i sh*t you not! Im surprised people dont talk about this place more! read more

People were raving about this place so I had to come and get a burger. I ordered the double wagyu and waited about 10 minutes after I went up to the Otis bar. My burger was just a single, so that was disappointing. And the burger itself was nothing better than something I could get at a fast food restaurant. There was about six people in line so maybe to get the order correct they can't handle more than one person at a time. read more

I used to be a regular here because of the free fries Friday deal, but it has ended, and my enthusiasm for Burger Bar has also ended. The hamburgers and fries are great, but there is a glitch when ordering online that changes your order to "no pickles" when you click "add pickles." They have also messed up my order on other occasions. There is no seating (just a walk up window) and it is right off MLK, a major road. read more

Burger Bar - Pick up counter - Burgers Near Me - Austin, Texas

Enjoyed my food and service was nice, but the location is kinda noisy and not pleasant. Make sure to ask for sauce, onions, and pickles! They aren't included by default. Location isn't the greatest. I know they try to be a pop-up type of place, but the standing tables are on the sidewalk right next to the busiest road in the neighborhood. My group got to-go, and I'm not sure how I would've enjoyed eating there. The burger was pretty yummy. I liked the potato roll (?) which was soft and slightly sweet. They were generous with my toppings as you can see in the cross section picture, and it tasted quite good together. Fries were on the skinnier side, but they were nicely seasoned, maybe erring on the salty side. I shared a vanilla milkshake and it was solid as well. My impression is based on only 1 visit, but I would like to come back! read more

I was really excited to hear there was a Burger Bar coming to the campus area and couldn't resist signing up for their preview today. Despite today being a preview, they were filling a good amount of orders very quickly. The staff was extremely pleasant, and the food was fresh. It's a really great alternative to the normal fast food in the area. The vanilla milkshake was the perfect shake consistency: not too think or thin. The burger, though I only ordered a single patty, was super filling and the side of fries was more than enough(also not too salty!). I can't wait to go back and give their Wagyu burger a shot! My only tip is if you're bringing children, I would advise just picking up your order and eating elsewhere. The location is right off a very busy road. It might be a good idea for Burger Bar to consider some sort of sturdy partition between the sidewalk tables and traffic. read more

Reasonably priced burgers that are tasty! I never really realized that there weren't more gourmet burgers near campus and burger bar is exactly there! Service was extremely quick and although we had a big order, they got everything correct so I am thoroughly impressed! There is no indoor seating or seats but there are tables outdoors to allow you to eat. I would just recommend taking it to go and eating somewhere else because this restaurant is on the side on MLK street which is insanely busy. Definitely not suitable for children. I got the queso fries (yummy) and the double cheeseburger. It was all so delicious!! Will be back. read more

Out of fries but had a nice burger and shake. Great place for a quick burger and Austin experience.

The wagyu burger was fantastic! Ordered ahead on the app and they had it made fresh when I walked up to the counter! Friendly service and perfect for a quick bite on the go! read more

The wagyu cheeseburgers are so good and the Neapolitan milkshakes had fresh pieces of strawberry in them. Highly recommend!

The Burger Bar is back - operating Wednesday - Sunday for now. Ordered Wagyu single hamburger. The beef had great flavor, but in my view was not worth the $4 upcharge. French fries were just out of the fryer and were the hit of the order. $2.75 was a steep price, but they give you a lot. Order was prepared promptly. There is no free parking available - and will get worse when UT fully reopens. It is a nice asset for pedestrians in the area. Two high-top tables are anchored right next to MLK Blvd. for those who wish to stand and eat. Definitely not for children. Otherwise everything is to-go. For some reason they give you an oversized shopping bag with handles to carry away your order. read more

The new Burger Bar Campus is awesome!! I went two days in a row to check out what they had, just prior to their closing during the pandemic, and I'm anxiously waiting for them to open back up!! The burger and fries were dirty, but SO delicious! The staff is amazing, and they are happy to offer recommendations. I went back for their breakfast tacos and was quite happy I did! The location can be a little tricky to get to, I suggest parking behind the Dominos in the alley way, for quick in and out service! You can even place your order through instagram, and I was called right away to confirm it! Be sure and ask for onions and pickles, if you want them, and don't be shy to customize!! read more

I was originally going to give this place a 3 star because the food was a bit overpriced and it wasn't anything too special, but the cashier was really friendly and the food came out really quick. I got the wagyu single cheeseburger, but I think it was an unnecessary use of wagyu. It didn't really add anything to the taste besides a bit more oily flavor. I tried my girlfriends regular cheeseburger and I preferred that more honestly. Seeing as the wagyu costs $9 compared to the $6 of the regular, I wouldn't say it was worth the cost. The regular is really good though! The fries were nice and crispy but also kind of small given the $2.50 price tag. I think the $8 happy hour deal is pretty good value though, and the bun of the burger was a super yummy potato roll reminiscent of shake shack! Would probably come back but wouldn't get the wagyu again. read more

For the price it is not worth it at all. Ordered to go and the wrapping it came in for the burger was half opened and the fries weren't covered at all. The 5 minute walk to my apartment wasn't even close enough to keep the food warm. I got a regular double bacon cheese burger and the meat tasted very bland, some of it was still pink while other parts were very cooked. The patty was way too big for the bun, which I would normally not complain about but it was just way too much meat for the amount of bun there was. The fries werent anything special, especially for the price of the fries. The shake was probably the only good thing there and even then it was so thick it was annoying to try to drink it. I also tried my friend's wagyu burger and it did not taste 4 dollars better than a regular patty. Nowhere near being worth the price. I'd pay maybe 25 cents more for it. That being said it really makes me question the quality of the meat. To end this, I highly recommend anyone who wants to try this place to go to in n out instead for a cheaper meal that will taste better and not hurt the bank. read more

I wasn't impressed with this overpriced food ($12 Double Bacon Cheeseburger and Fries). Cold fries and burger. Seems like the meat patties are precooked and placed under a heat lamp. So expect to eat a dried meat Patty. Food is not placed in covered food containers or foil. Fries are placed on an open container and burger half wrapped. Both food items are placed in a large paper bag so your food won't stay hot and open to insects, dust or other airborne items. I threw the fries away as cold fries are horrible to eat. P.Terry's is nearby (half a block away), so go there. Co-workers asked about the place. We did not recommend this burger joint. We showed them the food and they agreed it didn't look appealing and overpriced. read more

I tried out Burger Bar for lunch today. I got a Wagyu Cheese Burger with Bacon, Jalapeno and Guacamole. I was recommended the queso fries and the shake of the month, which was chocolate sea salt caramel. Total of $25 with tip. Burger: really good. Tasted great. Nothing bad about it. I would suggest less paper around the burger to hold it. Fries: kind of bland. Queso was just like queso you would get at Chipotle. So it's fine, but it's not incredible. Shake: honestly it was just salt with a touch of chocolate. Didn't even taste the caramel. Price: I think the burger is properly priced but everything else not so much. I mean you are right off campus. You can't expect everyone to be able to drop $25 every day. This would have to be a place you go to once a month. Know your target audience better. read more

Best burger, fries and shake on campus. My roommate agrees. If you like thick shakes that aren't sickeningly sweet, this is the place to go.

Burger bar is awesome. If you're looking for places to eat near UT austin, this should be your go to burger spot. They have the amazing Wagyu beef burger option and some amazing milkshakes that complete the entire meal. Fries are seasoned well too. Great people great service! Try them out! read more

The food here is decent. Nice spot to grab something good if you are walking by. The ordering system? Great if you love bending over for several minutes, squinting into a sun-glared screen, slowly punching in options one by one, reversing after figuring out what you've done wrong, and finally entering and painstakingly paying for an order that could have taken twenty seconds to tell to a cashier. read more
