I ordered the family pack for four people. There was only enough food for three. Maybe the servings were for a family of two adults and two toddlers and not four adults. I added my own appetizer, deviled eggs, cole slaw, and dessert so that everyone had enough. I will say that the generous bag of hot bread was very filling! read more

I am not a connoisseur of bbq like some down here, but I must admit, it was very very good. My family and I tried virtually all of the meats and from the sausage, to the ribs, to the ham, it was all super. The sauce is good and you can help yourself to the sides. The wait staff behind the counter put on a great show breaking into revelry type singing at the drop of a hat, or whenever an order is placed and it was fun to see. We fed 5 people, including beer & cobbler for $70. A great deal. read more

If your looking for good bbq, try this place!! We visited the Katy Spring Creek BBQ last week & can't wait until next weekend so we can go back! Right when you walk through the door, you're greeted by the wonderful smell of BBQ. The way they sing/chant the orders, slide the plates- creates a happy, fun environment. The prices are reasonable. There were 4 of us eating & all of us raved about our meals. I didn't give it 5 stars because I think the sides could use some improvement - maybe offer fries? The free bread is amazing!!! The restaurant was clean and decor very Texan ;) The manager stopped by our table and asked how everything was, comments, etc...I love when they do that bc it shows that they truly care about their customers. read more

The best thing here is the fresh bread that comes around every few minutes. The BBQ is decent and it's nice that the sides bar is all you can eat. It's a pretty good value for the price for sit-in. I got the sausage and turkey combination (had a lot of meat the night before, haha) and the turkey was very moist and tender. The sausage was pretty salty, though, and I had to wrap it in the awesome bread to eat it. The mac & cheese from the sides bar was good, along with the cole slaw. Potato salad was good, also. Didn't get to try out the others since I got full from the one plate. The ordering system is more like Luby's, if you have been there. Walk in, stand in line, get your food and sides then pay. Sit down and enjoy. If you want more sides, you ask the cashier, I think, for another plate and you can just cut and get more sides. read more

This place is simply GREAT. I have yet to find a place that tops Spring Creek. I didn't give it 5 stars because of the prices. I always get the bbq chicken and rib combo..it is quite a bit of food ..and I share with my youngster. The sauce is YUMMY and the sides are ok. I wish they offered mashed potatoes and gravy.... The bread is just plain great..and I plan to take my Brother and his family out when they come to visit us here soon... read more

My wife and I order from Spring Creek through Door Dash occasionally and it has always been very good to decent in the past, although the sides are always bland. Except for the fried okra which is awesome. But tonight I decided to try their Baby Back Rib dinner. I have had Baby Back ribs all over the south and a lot of the rest of the country and they have always been fall-off-the-bone tender, juicy and flavorful. But whatever kind of ribs Spring Creek sent me tonight--and I say that because they did not resemble any Baby Back ribs I had encountered before--were so dry and hard the meat was difficult to pry away from the bone with a fork, and equally difficult to chew. It was inedible even drenched in barbecue sauce. Whatever was wrong with my dinner, it should not have been served to a customer. Luckily my wife only ate half of her loaded potato, so I finished it (very good) with okra (ditto) and rolls. So I'm not saying I will never eat at Spring Creek again, but with so many other bbq choices in Fort Worth, it will not be any time soon. And NEVER the Baby Back ribs! read more

This place is great...the food is always good but something different happened today that was really 5 star to me. I walked in and apparently as I went to pay their payment system went down, it was gonna take probably 1-2 minutes max to get back up, but instead of making me wait the manager gave me my meal on the house. Amazing customer service, already loved this place but this was just special. read more

The coleslaw and the ribs were left overs that were heated back up. The corn doesn't have any flavor to it.

As of recent I am on a medically required low salt diet. I hate giving up the salt but it is a trade off: health or food I crave. Here I have found a balance: great food and acceptable levels of salt. I have been coming here for years and I am a fan. The Good news is that I can still eat here. I just have to pick what I eat. They have a nutritional list that I follow: http://springcreekbarbeque.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/nutrition_information.pdf For me, the delicious green beans, the turkey or ham have too much salt. However, the beef, ribs and pork are within my salt budget. Happily, the corn on the cob and the baked potato still work. To me, they have one of the best briskets around so it is my staple. read more

Everything about this place is delish!!!! Loved the black pepper sausage, brisket, bbq ribs, potatoes salad, backed potatoes, fresh baked bread, everything is fresh fresh and soo good! My kids rarely like Mac and cheese and they loved it! read more

You know it's bad when as soon as you get a look at the food your kid says "Mom, this doesn't even deserve 1 star on Yelp". Pretty sad to pay $50 for BBQ for 3 people and all still be hungry. Portions were TINY. I will never again eat here. read more

Made an order on Doordash and got a smaller plate than was requested. Called and was taken care of by a great manager named Sean! He went above and beyond to take care of us. I highly recommend this location if you are looking for great BBQ and great people! Thank you Spring Creek Barbecue! read more

Food is good, not great. A little over priced. You are supposed to be able to get multiple helpings of the sides but you have to wait in line all over again. They won't give you dishes on the side when going through line or they charge you for it. For example if I wanted my mac and cheese on a side dish and not on my main plate. Bread is good. read more

Had a baked potato from there, it was awesome! Bought some peach cobbler as well, but it was definitely not for me. Overall enjoyed the food

SpringCreek BBQ brisket is as close as I can get to my husband's brisket. It can use a little more seasoning. The tenderness melts in your mouth the same though. I like adding the brisket to the southwestern salad. Yum! FYI... They serve complimentary bluebell ice cream on Sundays. read more

My experience from my visit to the Katy Spring Creek location was just as plesant as my visits to other Spring Creek locations. I went by on a Saturday for a late lunch. The staff was friendly and my BBQ dinner was great. read more

Cat the manager was amazing with her customer service and made and amazing southwest salad just the way I wanted!!! Thank you ! read more

I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. I had a previous issue and the management intervened and made it right. They listened to my concern and fixed it. I felt heard as a valued customer which is rare thes days. It is a family owned establishment and with customer service on this level I will be going back. read more

Won a gift card at my work for this place so me and my boyfriend stopped in for dinner. I'm glad we did! Food was delicious and we received great customer service. Amanda went above and beyond to make sure our experience was great. Will definitely be returning. read more

My favorite restaurant in Houston. It's good and good price. The staffs are very friendly. I go there like once a week.

Where do I start? I ate here today, hoping to taste some good BBQ, but the portions are so so tiny, and the sausage sliced so ridiculously thin, that it's actually very difficult to taste it! It literally is sliced as thin as lunch meat!! They slice the sausage, which is paper thin, no exaggeration, and they take that slice and cut it in half and spread it out on the plate, to make it look like there's more meat lol! No joke. Keep in mind the 2 meat plate is $15. Then the guy cut me two really thin slices of brisket that were literally two inches long. The brisket had absolutely no taste of any spices, no salt or pepper or anything resembling a condiment. There was zero, and I mean zero, smoke flavor to the meat. Very very bland taste, coupled with tiny portions, are a recipe for disappointment. They do encourage you to eat as many of the sides as you want, and try and stuff you with rolls, to take your mind away from the extremely stingy and tiny portions. If you eat half a pound of potato salad and two rolls, then yes, you can leave here not hungry, but if you came here for BBQ, You will literally get about maybe, and I'm being generous here, 4oz of meat. Save your $40 for two people eating bill that you will spend here and do yourself and go to Luby's and eat their BBQ for half of the price, because the quality will be the same. If you want good BBQ, Go across the street to Rudy's, where they actually weigh the meat and you are assured of a fair amount of meat at a damn good price. Avoid this place as you would gas station sushi. Terrible terrible terrible. One last note, if you want to ruin your appetite, go check out the condition of the bathrooms before you order. read more

worst experience ever; went with family for dinner spent over $80 and they wont give me a small cup to put food in and very rude in their response. I tried the beef rips &14.95 and it was hard to cut through and old it must been at least 2 days old. will never go there again read more

I've never been so angry at this restaurant!!! I spent $15 on a plate of food, I felt like they cut the portions too small and I did not get any bread. I decide to wait for the hot fresh bread and we were not offered any, it was all taken to the front, the next batch went to a to-go order. When I finally finished my food, she came over to offer us bread, by then it is way too late. I just wanted some god damn bread with my small portion of brisket. I seriously doubt I will ever go back. read more

It's nothing remarkable, but the fried okra & Chopped Baker are worth checking it out for. My work orders take out from here for lunch and one order of the fried okra and I'm pretty full! They are very nice too because while you're waiting for your take out they serve you soft drinks, tea or water! It has a cafeteria kind of feel, which most BBQ places do, but one can't help feeling like they were at the county fair.... this could be a good thing or a bad thing. read more

LOVE SPRING CREEK!!!!!!! My mouth is water now as I write this review :-) The atmosphere, food, bread, sides are amazing. I love the ham, sausage (pepper sausage most), pulled pork and brisket. The food is consistant everytime we are here. The sides are great tasting! I love the potato salad and cole slaw. My husband loves the mac and cheese. He also loves the chicken, turkey and pulled pork. You can also special order a HUGE baked potato (big enough for 2 people) and fries if you want something different than the other options. I have also had the Southwest salad which was wonderful and it was huge. Fanastic place and one of the best BBQ places in Katy. read more

Best brisket ever!! The bbq sauce is to die for. I love how they hand out fresh bread and on sundays before 3 they give out free blue bell vanilla ice cream. Great place to bring family. read more

Great bbq. Great atmosphere. Good pricing and selection. Was told to come here by multiple people. Glad I went.

They make you feel at home as soon as you walk through the doors. They have the best RIBS in Katy! Nicely sized, more meat than fat, and flavorful. Their loaded baked potato is huge, I ate a bit w/ my ribs and saved the rest for lunch the next day...it was that big. I love their rolls as well. When I don't feel like bbqing @home I know where to go. read more

Either I'm having a bad day or the take-out host "Day" doesn't feel like working. Attitude was poor! She advised bread would be a while and I said I'll wait but resorted to giving me some stale "cold" bread. Mmmmmm... disappointing visit. read more

I went yesterday to buy food to go. I asked 1.5 lb of sliced beef. When I got home, I noticed the amount of food looked small. I had a scale and weigthed it. Surprised, it was around half of a pound. I called the store and explained. They said I have to bring the food back. I said we already ate it. They said nothing else they can do. I want to alert customers: check your food before taking off. I dont plan to go back. I posted the photos of receipt and beef on a scale. read more

Spring Creek Barbeque - Barbeque Near Me - Katy, Texas

See all

This place reminds me of the small town hole in the wall bbq joints, like the one in my hometown. Way more authentic Texas bbq than Rudy's (not sure why everyone compares the two, they're completely different styles). Some of the other reviewers seem pretty picky. Is it gourmet? No, but if you're that pretentious you shouldn't be eating at a place like this anyway. I love the food, the service, and the atmosphere. read more

Since I don't like BBQ, brisket, pork and any of the meats I can't comment whether they're good or bad, sorry. I know you're you're probably asking yourself "what the hell did she go there for then?" Simple: they have damn good and massive baked potatoes, LOL! They're loaded and cooked to perfection. I also love all the sides like the cole slaw, potato salad, beans, mac n' cheese and fresh bread that comes out of the oven every so often. Oh and let me not forget about the pies, they're really good too! read more

Visited with my coworkers. The meat is great! All of it! But the sides are mediocre, with the exception of their fried okra. I wouldn't run to go back, but I wouldn't turn down an invitation. read more

Succulent. Moist. Flavorful. The meat melted into every tastebud, and found a home in my palette. I find myself waking in the middle of the night craving the flavor. The cuts were near perfect, and the sauce had an element of home barbecue, that reminded me of friends and a good time spent near the grill. The ambiance was subpar, very "yeehaw". The individual sides were 6oz, not enough to truly satisfy the need for potato salad. You will need to order the pint for true satisfaction. Also, don't expect consistency in their cuts. Sometimes it's dry, other times it flakes off and melts into your mouth. And that, is a damn shame. At its best, it deserves a 5, but because of the inconsistent nature of the meat, it had earned a 3. read more

I was a little unsure about eating here because of the reviews. I've never eaten at Spring Creek Barbecue before. But my wife and I gave it a chance and I'm so glad we did. Being born and raised in Houston I know Texas B.B.Q. and I always judge a B.B.Q. place by how well they do three things. Pork Ribs, Brisket, and their B.B.Q sauce. So I ordered the 2 meat plate of Brisket and Pork Ribs. The young man cutting the meat gave me 3 choices of how I'd like my brisket; lean, marbling, or mixed. I choose the marbling. My wife ordered the sliced brisket sandwich and she choose mixed. My side was potato salad. The Brisket had a nice blackened rub crust to it with out it being burnt or too dry. It had a nice 1/4 inch or so pink smoke ring to it, just about right. The young man sliced it just about the right thickness and the marbling made it nice and tender. Lets call the Brisket an 8 out of 10. My wife liked the bun for her Brisket sandwich. She said the bread tasted slightly sweet and it was lightly toasted so it didn't get soggy quickly which can be a problem sometimes. She gave it a big thumbs up. The pork ribs were decent size. They had a nice dry seared outer crust to them like I like. The inside was nice and moist and flavorful. They had a nice smoke flavor to them that was not over powering on the smoke flavor. The flavor was a nice balance. Lets call them 8 out of 10. The B.B.Q. sauce was a nice, slightly sweet sauce with no real spice but a bit of a strong smokey pure sugar cane or molasses flavor to it. It was pretty good. I'd give it a 7 out of 10. The atmosphere of the place was nice but we ate there about 3 in the afternoon before the rush so it was quiet. The restrooms were nice and clean which is always something I notice and appreciate. Overall I give this place a solid 4 stars out of 5 stars for the dining experience and a solid 4 stars out of 5 for the food. I would be a "go to" B.B.Q. place on my list of B.B.Q. restaurants. read more

Rolls, get your delicious hot rolls here... The hot yeast rolls are fantastic, no one makes them better. Waiting in line is an amusing treat. Apparently there are rhyming descriptions of the food people order. The staff diligently repeats phrases that describe food orders verbally. The barbecue is cut freshly in plain sight of the customers waiting in line. Brisket is passable, and ribs are as expected. The side orders are a little confusing and available after the protein is served. Once selected they are tasty. Any request that requires extra preparation is brought to your table. What is also brought is the endless delicious yeast hot rolls. Yumm. When your meal is complete, there are a variety of cobblers available at extra cost in the dining area. I have never tried them due to the consumption of hot rolls. Not the place for a discerning barbecue lover, but the overall experience is pleasing. read more

Love this place good BBQ at a decent price. You get all the sides you want along with some fresh bread. The decor is really nice and A/C is ice cold for those hot summer days! I also like the fact they have fresh made peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream YUMMMY!!! read more

I'm giving this place four stars because I really really enjoyed my chopped beef sndwich and the service there. That chopped beef was good! ALthough, I didn't get fries, I opted for sides like pot. salad and mac n chz, which I'm a fan of mac n chz and so is my son kinda...and that was not doing it for us....the pot. salad...oh no, nuh-uh-o....it taste ech to me....like one of my dad's old friends would like that, it wasn't up for my taste..no way. I like that they were passing out hot fresh bread, and even though only one person at my table ate it, they came back around and asked us again....that's cool. And what I was told...the bread was delicious....hot and fresh....true to what they were passing on. I paid 10.77 w/tax for my plate....expensive for me...but you know what, the service was so nice there, it was fast to get the food....and my colleagues enjoyed theirs a lot, they got fries as their sides =( Cons: --sides I had like pot. salad and mac n chz..not good to me --a bit expensive Pros: --good chopped beef sand --good service --free hot fresh bread --clean and friendly environment read more

Based on the reviews for this place, I was seriously disappointed by my first foray into Katy BBQ. The problem with writing a review for BBQ is that everyone thinks they have the best BBQ. Tennessee thinks they're the best, Kansas thinks they're the best, South Carolina thinks they're the best, and Texas thinks they're the best. I think we can all agree that Texas clearly wins that contest, but there in lies the rub, or, in some cases, no rub, because each region of Texas has its own style of BBQ as well. Keeping that in mind, I tried to go into Spring Creek without preconceptions or expectations since I've been eating central Texas BBQ for the past four years. However, I still think this is some of the worst south Texas/Gulf coast Texas area BBQ I've ever eaten. I went here with the Fiance for lunch. I ordered the beef lunch special with beans and cole slaw and the Fiance got a sausage plate with cole slaw, potato salad, and fried okra. He also ordered sweet tea. My meat was freaking bland. Seriously, that was probably the most tasteless slice of brisket I've ever eaten. It was moist enough, but they had put zero seasoning on it during the cooking process that I could taste, and I couldn't even tell if it had been smoked. The cole slaw was bland and the beans were way too sweet to the point where they lacked any other flavor but sugar. The Fiance's sausage tasted vaguely like Vienna sausages from a can that had pepper sprinkled on them. His potato salad was unremarkable and most likely came out of a Sysco truck. That brings me to the rolls. A lot of people seem to like the unlimited rolls they have here, but I was unimpressed. If you grew up in Houston and attended any HISD public school, you probably at one point or another bought a hot lunch from the school cafeteria, and you probably received a roll with that lunch. Spring Creek's rolls taste EXACTLY like HISD's rolls. Some of you may like that, but to me, when I pay money for food at a restaurant, I don't want it to taste like the food I received from a high school cafeteria. Also, the sweet tea the Fiance got cost over two dollars! Maybe I'm in small town to big city shock, but that seemed really steep for generic sweet tea, free refills or not. The Fiance said it was barely sweet enough to be called sweet. With the taste of disappointment fresh in our mouths, we ordered a peach cobbler to split to see if we could get something we liked out of the meal. We got it ala mode, but the softball size scoop of Blue Bell ice cream was a bit much, making us feel like we'd gotten ice cream with a side of cobbler. The cobbler itself was bland and had way too much crust and not enough filling. Altogether this was a really lackluster sampling of BBQ. read more

stopped by on a whim... deeply regret it! poorest of the poor customer service. bland food. employees cared more about conversing with each other, rather than tending to the customers. overpriced food. dry meat. had to go through 5 people to find out what was pork. salad was watered down with brown lettuce. one employee picked his teeth with a toothpick whilst standing over the meat, barely responding to me. spent $50 fucking dollars for my family to eat... and the best part of the entire meal was my ice water! would not recommend and will not be returning. read more
