    Kids meal with fries and sweet potato fries
    Esther C.

    I really came here because of the playground and ability to eat and see my kiddos play. You order food and then sit down. Service was very good! So kind and friendly I was pleasantly surprised by the kids meals and a small burger. The bread was very soft and the patty tasted fresh. I liked their sweet potato fries more than the regular fries. The regular fries were just shoe string fries, nothing fancy. I liked the self service sauces they had so I could dip my fries in them. I used one on my burger and enjoyed it. The playground was much smaller than I thought it would be. The other locations seem to be much larger in general.

    Well I wish I could say it was a good experience but that's not the case. It is counter service which was fine but the seating was very close together and basically picnic style tables in the dining area. Not good for the elderly. They brought the food out and off he went. No "can I get y'all anything else or hope you enjoy it. You could tell he didn't want to be there. My sister opened her sandwich and it was the worst piece of lettuce you could have served. She asked for a new one and he said " what's wrong with it"? Then rolled his eyes at her she said. The food wasn't the best and some was cold. Needless to say it was not a high rated place in our book. Sorry it was just our experience and some customer service training might be a good idea.

    Found Hat Creek Burger Company thru Yelp. Due to the volume of high ratings, I thought it would be a pretty safe bet on good food, and I wasn't disappointed. I ordered the Pretzel Jack and made it a combo adding Sweet Potato Fries and Unsweetened Iced Tea. My burger was juicy and flavorful. The pretzel bun was soft and tasty. Sweet Potato Fries - this is a challenge for most places that serve them to achieve some type of crunch instead of being limpy. Aside from that, the Fries had good flavor. The parking lot was packed on a Saturday afternoon, so I went through the drive-thru. Service was prompt, and the price was a bit steep for my combo meal (almost $16). Better than most "fast food" burgers that I have had.

    A friend wanted to come visit Hat Creek for a quick bite. First thing I noticed about Hat Creek is its unique facility. Hat Creek has its indoor seating and ordering area is a lot smaller than its outdoor/playground area. Interesting! Hat Creek is modernized and is well thought out. It made for the 2020s decade with a throwback to the 90's. Great for both adults and kids of today. I got the Big Hat burger and it was quite tasty! Definitely a step up from your normal fast food burger. The quality and taste is definitely a step up from that. However there are more gourmet burger places that you can find with a better product. However for a chain restaurant, this is definitely a great place. Fast service, good food and a slew of sauce for you to entertain. Hat Creek is a hit for your modern suburban family.

    Recycling and hand wash stations on outer patio eating area .. nice!
    Christina M.

    This was nice and clean. Made me think of an upgraded Whataburger kind of. Had a nice playground for kids and nice indoor/outdoor eating area. They also had a hand wash and recycling station on the outer eating area which I thought was really thoughtful. I'd come again. They did have these three different sauces you could try and I must say all three were good. I got some in small containers to dip my fries in. Not bad but also not anything too out the box. It's solid go to burger spot and clean.

    Another pleasant surprise in what I'm going to arbitrarily designate as a brunch fusion menu…read more Firstly, it's a very nice layout. Tables are well spaced plenty of room eight crisp environment really just a very comfortable ambience. The services superlative from the moment you walk in in which you are immediately accommodated to the server who takes an order and then the servers who serve the food which is not necessarily one in the same. It's simply a very efficient service system and very pleasant if you're a customer. You get warm food. In my case I had hollandaise with Salman underlying it, which was very good. The eggs were cooked perfectly the hollandaise not by any means obnoxious but a very deliberate Irving and a wonderful salad, which both underlines the egg and is served as a side with the eggs, which were perfectly poached. In so far as the buzz is concerned, there are wines and beer available and really quite an extensive menu in both. I enjoyed a beer with mine, which I know it sounds like an odd combination, but it worked quite well for me. Really this is a wonderful addition to Katy options for breakfast or brunch.

    I have lived near this establishment for almost 2 years now and have never tried it. So today we…read moredecided to give it a try and it was worth it 100%. They serve brunch on Saturday and Sunday until 330. The brunch menu is huge. It is not a super large menu, which I feel very endearing. We decided to try the bagel and lox with cream cheese, the Buzz burger with fries, and their homemade chips. They start off by bringing you this beautiful craft of bottled water. That to me was an amazing bonus. We also ordered two sodas which came in a can. I sort of wish it was a more of a fountain drink than one can of soda for the price. *Now service was super slow. However, the waitress did come and tell us that they are running a little behind and she apologized for it and she was super sweet, so that made up for the weight. How do I known how long it was going to take, I don't know if I would've stayed, but in the end, the food was amazing. The burger was cooked to perfection. My boyfriend is a hamburger snob and he kept saying how good it was how fresh it was and how perfectly cooked it was. They serve you shoestring fries that feel like they're double fried and they were phenomenal. My bagel was toasted perfectly and had a very good amount of cream cheese and lox. As a Jewish girl living in the area that I do, it's very hard to find good bagels with lox and cream cheese. I will most definitely be back for this sooner than later. The homemade chips took quite a while to come out, and at one point I was ready to say we don't need it, but these potato chips beat Buccees beaver chips, 100%. They were super fresh and very crunchy and tasted amazing. I will definitely recommend those to anybody that orders some. My boyfriend then ordered a tropical sunrise smoothie and it was so tasty and tasted like a strawberry banana smoothie. Now once again that did take a long time to come out and at one point, we were wishing we had not ordered it but once we did get it, it was really good and I highly recommend it. The restaurant is not very large and it's the perfect brunch spot for anybody looking for a smaller Cafe with very good choices.

To address the 4 star, part of the knock on the star comes from little things throughout the night. First, we waited quite a bit to be served. To no fault of our waitress it looked like she had been pulled to handle other things. The hostess ended up taking our order for sandy and then she took it from there. Also, another waitress Jada stepped in as well to help and made sure we were good. This was very nice of them. Again, our waitress was not a problem, but logistically if she had tables you could see her physically having to handle other things so its not like she just went missing. The restaurant has a great vibe. There was a pianist playing and the lights were intimately low. The chef also came over and introduced himself which is pretty cool. On to the food: The oyster Rockefeller first course was delicious. Creamy, spinach, oyster with a bit of a zing from the sauce Next we had the heritage tasting plate and the oxtail tacos. The oxtail tacos had a bit too much lettuce for my liking but my fiancee enjoyed it. Savory, hers didnt have as much lettuce as mine, so if youre not a lettuce fan you could he rolling the dice here. The heritage tasting plate was good. Camel, kangaroo, and rabbit. I loved the kangaroo a ton. Who knew? The camel was very good too it had a ground turkey type if texture. The kangaroo tasted like stewed beef roast. Very good. Finally, the rabbit, as I've had this before, was good rabbit. Its like a chicken ish flavor to it. For the next course we had the lamb chops and suya ribeye. The lamb chops were flavorful and the green beans on both dishes were good and tender. The suya ribeye had good suya flavor. We barely touched the mashed potatoes and jollof because we were so full. The bite of jollof that I did have was traditional flavored jollof. Pretty good. We got the peri peri shrimp with the lamb chops and they were ok, but not anything to write home about. We were expecting that peri peri burst of flavor like the lamb chops had. To finish off the meal we both got the creme brulee. Id say this missed a bit. The brulee didnt have your traditional hard top of bruleed sugar. The sugary portion tasted a bit burnt. Not the traditional brulee burnt but a stronger burnt sugar flavor. All in all a great experience and we would go back and do this again.
