My husband and I stopped by this small, locally owned hamburger place on a rainy afternoon. The…read moreowner wasn't there at first, and a woman who was helping run things greeted us and took our order. She was very direct and told us upfront it would be about a 20-minute wait, which I appreciated. While we waited, I sat in the car listening to the thunder and rain. There was something peaceful and simple about that moment and I loved it. My husband stayed inside to wait for the food. During that time, a couple came back in upset about the wait and asked for their money back. The owner had just returned from a family event and was clearly trying her best to make things right. Even when the couple was rude, she handled it with grace and empathy, saying, "I'm sad that we failed you." It was such a human moment. One that showed how much she cares about her customers and her business. And our hamburgers were absolutely delicious! Definitely worth the wait. I enjoyed everything about this experience. Support small businesses like this one, friends! It's a hidden gem where real people work hard and care deeply about what they serve.

Unfortunately, this place missed the mark for me. Ordering was easy as they specialize in burgers with and the lady at the window was friendly enough. The kid and I both ordered the mission burger, which is 2 smash patties, cheese, and their special sauce. I added grilled onion to mine and he ordered a side of fries. I could tell when I looked at the patties I would be disappointed. They weren't really smash patties at all, more like the size and shape of a McDonald's quarter pounder. They tasted like the prepackaged patties you would get out of a box or bag. I can't say for sure, but the quality was just not great. I've eaten my fair share of burgers around the metroplex, so I know good quality when I have it. The kid enjoyed his food and the fries were really good, hence the 3 stars. At $11 for the basic burger, I wouldn't visit again. I hate leaving reviews like this!

She got home and started pulling out said sandwiches and sides only to discover they had not included my intended pork sandwich. I asked the wife to call back up to them and let them know I was coming back into town to get my sandwich. $5 is $5 at this point and I wouldn't have anything but sides if I didn't head back into town. Got told when I got there by the female manager on duty tonight that I was lying and I had probably ate it already so was coming back to try and steal another from them. Long story, finally got my pork sandwich the wife paid for and, thankfully a little later I found out, a burger too. Got home, opened the pork sandwich and pathetic pork sandwich is a better name for it. Literally one small spoon size line of pork meat in the center of the otherwise dry bottom bun and four pickles with a swipe of some red sauce that smells like cheap bbq sauce on the top bun. Found out as well that they never picked up the phone the whole time I was gone to correct the issue that way so wife got a constant busy signal for over thirty minutes. Also, at least half of what we did get at first was cold (cheesy fries), burnt (onion rings), or chewy/undercooked (wacky pack chicken tenders) depending on item. Overall, the pathetic pork just cost me $5+ gas because no one wants to eat it with how it looks and wasted gas driving back and forth from Cleburne for this pathetic pork sandwich. Moral of the story: Don't waste your time or money.

Burger Bar is the best little burger joint in Texas. Since 1949 this place has been grilling up burgers. The grill is more than 100 years old and each burger has all the flavor to prove it. There isn't much seating in the 10X10 space but there are some sweet little picnic tables outside to sit at. The staff will tell you all about the history and there's always plenty of customers to chat with as well! A real gem. read more

Much like Morris Neal's, this place is one of Cleburne's last hidden gems. While the storefront is small and easy to miss, you'll simply be amazed at how good the food here is. The burgers and fries are hot, fresh, and can't be compared to anywhere else. I could go on and on but the food speaks for itself. read more

Mine had romaine lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickles, and mustard, and everything tasted fresh. Kincaid's is still my #1 and Marty B's near Argyle is #2 for me, but Best Burger Barn is a strong #3 and still in my top 5 burgers. Only downside is the inside could use a little updating since it feels a bit run down. But if you're going for the burger, it's definitely worth it.

These are beer battered which typically I'm not a big fan of but these are really good. The onions are sliced big which again not generally a fan but they are good! Cheese curds were good as well. I had them last time. This time they were just past the perfectly cooked point cuz the cheese had oozed out to where they all were about half hollowed out. But still good and did not have an over cooked grade by any means. We would order again as well. I am happy with a hamburger all the way and get the senior /kids burger and it's plenty big enough since I eat curds and onion rings ( and cobbler). His double meat was cooked perfectly and both were dressed nicely and with care which we appreciate staff taking the time to do. Waitstaff had great timing. Again one staff for the room and they do an excellent job handling everyone. Our order can exactly when and how we requested. We did get pecan cobbler to go and blackberry cobbler to eat here. I would probably pass on the blackberry next time. Can't say about the pecan yet. It can out of the fridge and seemed to have been in there for a few days. There was condensation dripping inside and it was ice cold. And it kinda had a soupy texture, but not from blackberry liquid if you know what I mean, but rather from sitting in the fridge and collecting condensation They also season with cinnamon it tasted like which would not be my choice if I was making it. But all else we would order again. We will defiantly be back again.

Overall, a tasty hamburger joint, check it out if you are in that area...

They weren't too spicy. Their onion rings are pretty good, but they could use just a tad bit more seasoning in my opinion. The fries were top notch & cooked to perfection. The burgers were phenomenal. They were so big. The stuffed burger is a patty stuffed with cheese that also has cheese on top. You can see that cheesy goodness is oozing out of it in the picture.
