This was my first time at little stack burgers (previously haystack burgers) and I got their signature burger and a side of fries. The service was quick and It came out in a reasonable amount of time. Also it was only around $15 for a combo which I thought was a good price. The burger was pretty much what you'd expect. It was a burger with toppings and a side of fries. The crust in the burger was good, but the fries were a little under done for my liking. The ambiance of the restaurant was also very standard. I wouldn't avoid this place, but I wouldn't go out of my way to return. For this price point, I'd rather go to In-and-Out read more

Perfect burger place! Size is everything and this one is balanced for optimal flavor. Between a slider and a Whataburger regular size. If you want more beef , just add patties. Ordered two burgers, one with 1000 island and one with chili . Both were delicious. Fries and onions were a great addition to the meal . Try the chipotle ketchup. My next visit will include a chicken sandwich and a cod fish sandwich. A simple but varied menu. You know you're in a special place when you see Richardson Fireman eating there. I highly recommend Little Stack See you there! read more

I will say that the place was cute, with very friendly staff. I have been to haystack burgers before but I wanted to give little stack a try. The mozzarella balls were very good, fresh and have a great cheese pull. I enjoyed the fries as well ,fresh cut potatoes and hot. Now the burgers.. although they were fresh, they lacked salt on the patty, and they were DRY. More sauce and more salt and I could have really enjoyed. Overall I give it a 6/10 read more

They updated this location to have a totally different menu. I'm sure we'll get used to it but I appreciate that I was able to ask the staff what the equivalent of a vanderslice would be, and they made it and it was just as delicious as normal. Maybe keep a couple of the OGs available to to help us old timers transition? I do love going here before seeing a movie at Alamo! read more

Little Stack Burgers - Double Bacon Burger -- checked all the boxes and was very satisfying! - Burgers Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Recently (in 2025) the former Haystacks Burger & Barley has changed its name to Little Stack. Same location but totally different (much smaller) menu. Sadly, Little Stack just doesn't stack up! Haystacks is one of my favorite burger places. Apparently this location is the only one to change and thank goodness. I will be frequenting the other Haystacks Burger & Barley locations but no longer need to visit Little Stack. The food was not good. I ordered two of the #1 burgers along with the skinny fries and cheezy balls. My favorite burger was Down on the Farm. I asked if the #1 was the same. The girl taking my order said it was but a bit smaller. Try A LOT smaller! So the burgers shrunk in size for I think what was the previous price. Did they think we wouldn't notice? My son often joins us for lunch on Fridays and Haystacks is one of our and his favorites. After the meal I picked up, he finished eating and said "thanks for the snack!" The fries were so salty, even hubby who loves salt said these are inedible. It's like they were salted and someone else didn't know they were and salted them again. The previous mozzarella sticks were so delicious, these cheezy balls are not. And they revamped the decor but it didn't need to be updated! I loved the previous animals on the wall. This is a case of leaving well enough alone. Bring back the previous decor and menu or I'm afraid this new revamped concept will shut this restaurant down. Maybe since it's located next to Alamo Drafthouse they thought they needed smaller menu items, since moviegoers will want popcorn at the movies. Sadly, for the price and taste of this food I just picked up for lunch on Friday, I won't be back. read more

Notice: All of these other reviews and pictures are for Haystack, not Little Stack. I contacted Yelp, but they have not fixed it yet. It's not Haystack anymore, but it's still great. I think the fries are better...stringier type, but same quality? The #2 was great, the #3 was very heavy on the mustard, the chicken tenders needed a dip like ranch or BBQ. I forgot to ask for medium rare on the burgers, but they weren't too dry and I am pretty picky. If you are here wondering what happened to Haystack, the other location is on Arapaho just West of Hillcrest. The hours aren't showing on here, but they are open everyday from 10:30 am to 8:30 pm. read more

What happened? They goofed up. Bad smell when walking in. Look changed. We just left. Not Haystack quality

This use to be one of our favorite burger places but they changed the name to Little Stack for unknown reasons while the other locations kept the original name. The beef in the burgers seems to have changed to match the "little" name. Reminds me of that commercial from the 80's "where's the beef". Their great big cheese sticks were also changed to bites but still taste good and easier to share but I don't want to share. read more

I came here for something quick I did get that! Side salad had lettuce, cheese and tomato my kid enjoyed the mozzarella sticks. The place has a strange smell. Not very clean with how slow it was. read more

Used to love this place as haystack. Won't go back now. The cashier said they could still make the club sandwiches but without ham. It was awful. Not at all the same. No longer have sweet potato chips that were my fav. Will become a memory and not my regular go to when in Richardson. read more

This homemade fried cheese never disappoints. There is no other place in DFW that comes close. Other restaurants typically buy a bag of frozen mozzarella sticks, not Haystack. It came out in three minutes. They give out ranch and marina for dipping. I liked the ranch better. I will keep coming here. read more

Came here for lunch with my coworker and we had a good experience. Parking was easy, ordering quick, and ample amount of seating. I ordered the Down on the Farm turkey burger with no mustard and it was very juicy and tasty! The side of fries I ordered to accompany the burger was crispy and fried perfectly (the sides do come separately). Overall, nice burger experience and I will come back. read more

I went yesterday and tried the Patty Melt and half-and-half French fries and fried pickles. It was really good, though a bit expensive. The burger was seasoned well. At the recommendation of the cashier, I went with it cooked medium. I definitely wouldn't do that again as it was a little too raw for my liking, but it was good. The fries were tasty and the fried pickles were my fave! I'm excited to return and try another well-done burger and alllll the fried pickles. read more

I enjoy Haystack burgers. They are juicy and delicious. The staff are always nice and friendly. One of the best burgers in DFW.

I made the mistake of eating here. These people do not care how the food comes out and if you complain they make it worse. I don't trust anything they cook or say. read more

The quality of the meat of the burger appeared to be decent, but the burger was seriously undercooked and heavily salted. It was Salted to the point where it was nearly inedible. The pudding was a fail. The actual pudding itself tasted fine and the bananas were the correct ripeness, but the vanilla wafers were put in at the very end, as opposed to having some time in the pudding to soften up so they were hard. The presentation was unique, but didn't add to the experience or the product. I would have preferred to have less product, but served in a smaller container, that was prepared better. I got the Ruben. For the price there wasn't a lot of meat particular when you compare it to competitors. The quality of the meat was OK but not stunning. It was kind of an also ran. I did like the bread was toasted and the combination Was good but not great. For the price, I was looking for something with a lot more wow. Either flavor or quality. Overall we were just disappointed. The fries and haystack onions were very very salty. The burger was extremely salty. Nothing really stood out as being a reason to come back. We were very much looking forward to this, but I don't think we're going to return. read more

Decided to get the Is La Bella mushroom sandwich and onion rings tonight. They were both delicious. Haystack is the only place that I know of that serves mushroom burgers in our area and I LOVE it! If you're addicted to mushrooms like I am, this will definitely hit the spot. The food came out quick and hot, and the server was very careful to make sure my order contained everything I requested. Bravo! read more

Sorry, I am not digging the change: smaller burgers, different fries, no more craft beer, etc. Yes, you were getting a bit pricey, but after you have to double up on the patties you really aren't saving much. At least the ice tea has not changed, which is great. read more

Food was fine until I saw a roach on the table with the soda machine. Reported it to the cashier who squished it with a towel. Would not return. read more

Burgers were good but messy. Fries are standard. Nothing bad but nothing special. Fried onions are a novelty and good. Service was fast and friendly. Sunday lunch rows was light. Very casual vibe. read more

This place hits the spot every time I want a burger, they never disappoint. I always have to get a side of fried pickles. My husband raves about the chicken fried burger. Everyone there is really nice and they have great inside seating. They also have a cute little patio read more

The food was ok...the Frito pie was just dry...so get a big glass of water to drink with it. The chili on top was like a bowl of dry meat. There was absolutely no juice or moisture at all. The onion strings were good but the fries tasted like they had been sitting for a while. The burger was good according to my friend. read more

The patty melt is top notch. One of our go to spots in Richardson. Definitely recommend!

Fried pickles, fries, awesome burgers, brews, good price point. . . What isn't to love? Yumm

This was my favorite burger. I went to Richardson location got burger and 1/2 frie/onion rings. The meat was Med-rare more on the rare side. I can do rare but all was cold except the meat. Fries/onion rings; bun all cold for $21.00 no drink. The floor were dirty w/crumbs and tiny trash. The women bathroom had trash in the ground due to the trash Ben was broken, stepping on the metal to open lid didn't so people just thru in floor, the lid was eusted. U was so disappointed. Ugh! The staff (2) girls were not friendly. read more

I originally stopped to eat at Rickys Hot Chicken (next door) but they were closed until 4 so this starving belly of mine decided to try Haystack Burgers. I asked about the top seller and the guy said it was their "Haystack " so I got the Haystack burger. Unfortunately it was very dry, like it was missing something to bring it on in. The crunchiness on there was good but it was just dry. Also, quite expensive and the $10.89 burgers don't include sides. So once you add fries you're looking at $16 now I don't mind paying $16 but it damn sure better be worth it. Honestly I won't return unless they decide to sale fries with the burgers as a combo deal AND add some kind of sauce. read more

I am not one to order a burger out because when I was a kid a burger was something my dad made and it was the only one I liked. Well I tell you what, once I tried a Haystack burger I was a changed woman and I crave a burger from here often. The burgers here are delicious and made to order (go with medium). The sauces also provide a great variety as well and you can choose from traditional mayo and ketchup or go for the avocado or three pepper ranch. The big secret about haystack though is they have quite possibly the best grown up mozzarella stick in Texas. It's huge, it's perfectly cooked and most importantly it makes you reconsider "healthy eating" every time. I typically go for the Haystack salad with a burger patty, add poblanos, no fried onion and add an avocado ranch. It's delicious and fits into most "diets" but still feels incredibly indulgent. Enjoy and don't forget to add a Haymaker. read more

For the $21 I spent, I could have gone to Wendy's and been just as satisfied for a 1/3 of the price. Pros: 1/2lb patty cooked medium, ingredients looked fresh, chipotle mayo was tasty Cons: burger left a greasy mess, nothing special about the patty (not hand formed nor Angus beef nor anything other that helped it stand out), a bit too salty, fries were hand cut but nothing else to help them stand out either. The decor was nice and they have beer on tap but other than that, you can find better and less expensive elsewhere. read more

I'm totally bummed about this new concept of Little Stack. This place (formerly Haystack) is so close to my house and has been my go to for when I want a big, juicy burger. I've been going here ever since they opened and have enjoyed trying all the different and creative burgers options. Was it overpriced? Yes. But what isn't these days? So imagine my surprise to visit and find that everything has changed. Now there are three burger options on the menu. And all three are the most basic burgers you can find. Big and juicy, nope! These aren't even quarter pound patties with maybe 3" buns ranging from $8-$10 (for just the burger). Much like a kids burger or junior burger you'd find at a fast food place. Very dry and very salty. I don't think the cooks have even figured out how to cook these tiny things. I can tell that business hasn't been great here for the past few years and I'm sure the owners are trying to revamp in hopes of being more "affordable" for guests while keeping their costs low. But I for one almost walked out without ordering but I was already there and pretty hungry. But I saw two other families actually leave and one person even said "this is BS". RIP to my favorite local burger joint. I won't be back. Bummed. read more

Solid burgers and patty melt. The staff is very friendly and the place is extremely clean. The pricing is a little on the high side, and is the only reason I can't give a five star. The quality of the food is fantastic, but 4 burgers, 5 sodas, 1 appetizer, 2 orders of fries, should not be $100. read more

Alright y'all. We are always in the mood for a good burger (extra drippy please!). Haystack delivered with near perfect execution. On order today: Homemade Fried Mozzarella: melty, gooey mozzarella in a light crust, served with a lightly spiced marinara and homemade ranch. Fantastic. Nothing pairs better with fatty cheese sticks like fresh, spicy marinara and cold, tangy ranch. Ranchero Chicken Stuffed Jalapeños: SPICY Guys...trust me...do not fail to order these. Moist, shredded chicken, zesty sauce, stuffed into a FRESH jalapeño then battered and deep fried. Think of the best taquito you've ever had...then shove it in a wicked hot jalapeño and you still won't come close to how good these were. Half & Half (not pictured): a single bowl with the best of both worlds: hand cut fries and onion strings. What's an onion string, you ask? An onion ring, basically, but more consumer friendly. Sliced super thin before being fried up, it is incredibly difficult to serve these without them sitting in a pool of their own grease. And yet...haystack did it. I think we all know how good handcut fries are, and these were cooked to perfection. Chicken Fried Burger: tasted exactly how the menu says. Great burger to batter ratio (about 4:1, not ideal for a classic chicken fried steak, but exactly what you want for a fried burger). The jalapeño gravy was good also, but I would have liked it to have a kick of fresh black pepper (I'm picky about my CFS gravy). Burger of the Month (January) / 3 Alarm Burger: Please don't draw & quarter me if I got the name wrong, we ate there several days ago and I failed to note the name. For the average consumer, this would more than likely pack a punch in the spice department. For my chili-head boyfriend who eats whole habaneros for fun, it wasn't spicy enough. I didn't manage to snag a bite, but he assured me that it was an absolutely solid burger. The Haymaker (not pictured): I probably should have read some reviews before we ordered this because my lil Texas self CANNOT stomach whiskey, and this is a frozen whiskey drink. I know, I know. I can't drink whiskey (I've tried! I promise! But it makes my stomach extremely unhappy). If you like old fashioneds, this frozen twist will be perfect for you. Our food and beverage experience warranted four stars, but the service rounded this out to a five star review. The woman running the counter was friendly and efficient, not only with us but with the next guest that came in. During our dining, a group of gentlemen came in and asked multiple questions about the menu. At this point, a male staff member had taken over the register and answered all of their questions without hesitation and offered suggestions based on what the group was saying they liked. That's the kind of service I love to witness, and to see it at a quick counter service establishment is almost unheard of. Haystack made for a truly pleasant dining experience from start to finish. read more

Little Stack Burgers - a closeup of the bun - Burgers Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Good Afternoon Linda's, Let me tell you about this burger place that I recently tried. I'll start by saying that the customer service was great! Let me get to the meat and potatoes of this review. I didn't know that the burger was going to be deconstructed , so I had to pick up my face when I opened the box. The grease was dripping from the burger as soon I picked it up, which for a burger would be good. However, I took one bite of the burger and the salt hit me. It was as if it was bathed in salt and hypertension. Disappointed is understatement, because I was extremely hungry. Go for the excellent customer service, but not on your lunch break. Linda's enjoy the journey of trying new places ,but tell them to calm down on the salt and you might be able to enjoy your burger. read more

Oh my gosh, y'all, these burgers were worth the calories and the mess! My husband and I stopped by for a weekday lunch recently and ordered the Haystack burger, the Avocado Ranch Burger, and a half-and-half order of fried pickles and french fries. The restaurant itself is tucked inside an unassuming strip mall but the interior is clean, modern, and inviting. The gentleman who took our orders was incredibly friendly and helpful, as were the other employees we encountered during our visit. My Avocado Ranch Burger was everything I hoped it would be - perfectly cooked, juicy, and well-seasoned. The flavor combinations really complemented one another. This is not a petite easy-to-handle burger and I probably looked a bit ridiculous leaning over my plate while trying to avoid getting food all over my shirt - next time I might opt to knife and fork it. The fried pickles and accompanying sauce were addicting and I would order them again in a heartbeat. My husband was equally happy with his Haystack burger and fries, and we both loved the chipotle ketchup. read more

Happy Saturday beautiful people *Last night I was in Richardson,TX and stopped by Haystack Burgers. They sell burgers, sandwiches and salads. I prefer turkey or veggie burgers and they had BOTH as an option so I was sold! *Food details are listed below... BYOB (Build your own Burger)- 9/10- $10 (there was a base price & each add on was extra): I got a turkey burger w/ cheddar cheese tomatoes & chipotle Mayo. The patty was very dense and cooked all the way through. I asked for well done, im not sure if it was or not but it was cooked enough for me. This is a quality turkey burger if you enjoy a turkey patty. Also, It was seasoned perfectly. Half/Half (half fried pickles, half fries) $4.45... details below Fried pickles -8/10: Slim cut pickled chips. They didn't look like they would be good but the flavor was perfect. Not too salty. Paired nicely with their ranch dressing. Fries- 7.8/10: they were decent. A bit too salty for me and a few had an oil taste. However, they paired nicely with the other food items especially the turkey burger Bc of the density of the fries. 3 jalapeños - 8/10- $6.85: They didn't look like much however these were very tasty. The jalapeños had a pickled flavor. It tasted like it was stuffed with chicken and salsa or small tomatoes. To me they were over priced for the amount you get. read more
