The catfish and fried green tomatoes are stellar. Portions are big and friends have talked up the buffet (although I can't personally speak to it.) only downside for me is that we were served on styrofoam. The waste is a bummer - otherwise great down home cooking and ambience. read more

Springhill feels like a restaurant that's been coasting on its reputation for a long time. The best thing I can say is that the fryer oil appeared clean. The catfish and fried items weren't greasy, rancid, or carrying that old-oil taste that ruins a meal. For a place centered around fried food, that's important. Beyond that, the experience was pretty underwhelming. The food was bland and forgettable, cafeteria-quality at best. The salad bar was sparse with limited choices, and nearly everything being served on Styrofoam makes the entire place feel cheap and dated. Service was adequate but nothing memorable. Nobody was rude, but there wasn't much attention to detail or hospitality either. What really stood out was the condition of the facility. The restroom looked neglected, and the sink was partially detached from the wall. When customers see maintenance issues that obvious, it raises questions about the overall upkeep of the restaurant. I don't expect fine dining from a catfish buffet, but I do expect decent food, a clean facility, and some pride in presentation. Aside from the fryer oil being in good shape, there wasn't much here that would make me want to return. Pros: Clean-tasting fryer oil, food served hot. Cons: Bland food, limited salad bar, heavy use of Styrofoam, mediocre service, facility needs maintenance. read more

BEST lunch buffet around! Have loved coming here with my family for many years! All the food is always super fresh and even though on some nights it might take awhile to get you know it's going to be good! Great homemade ranch that goes with a lot of the yummy options! Owners are great and around a lot and most of the wait staff has been here awhile which is a good thing for sure! Pflugerville staple! read more

How this place is in business is beyond me. Walked in and my 8yo daughter begged to leave saying how bad it smelled. We continued in, ignoring the dust and sat down at a booth. Our server was sweet, she was happy to help and attentive. After ordering my daughter had to use the bathroom, "OH MY HEAVENS, what is that smell?" She said. Yall the bathroom, it is SO bad, the sewage smell is unbearable. We had to leave without using the bathroom and didn't even wash our hands as we felt we would get dirtier somehow. My daughter said they should use an air fresher, I said honey I saw one, she said well then they need 10. I don't know that 10 would help, there is for sure something wrong with that plumbing, that was not normal. I was so grossed out I wasn't sure I could eat. Our food finally came out and it was all disposable plates. Really? Anyways, we paid, we were out and won't be back. Ring in Austin for over 20 years I always wanted to try this place but I highly recommend you do not. read more

Decide to stop in and do a takeout order after work. Put my order in and waited 20 minutes for it to finish. Took three people to take the order and to bring it to me. When I got home, I realized they overcharged me by three dollars on my meal. I called them and asked them what this was about and they said it's a takeout fee. So basically you drive there use your own gas your own vehicle and you put the order in and then you wait to take it home with you and there's no table service and they still hit you with a three dollar fee. I will never ever eat at this place again. I've lived in Pflugerville for over 30 years and have never done a takeout with them, always a sit in. But never again! They don't tell you about this fee. They just hit you with it. Crooks! read more

It's been decades since I've set foot in this place. After you pull into the steep and potholed gravel parking lot, you can step back in time to a building filled with old relics which adds to the charm. I did read through several reviews before coming here, but nobody mentioned that they have absolutely no craft beer or wine, just the usual domestic offerings. Not even Shiner! We started with the sampler platter appetizer which was underwhelming and small. The hush puppies were clearly previously frozen out of a bag and of ver poor quality, skip those nasty nuggets. After 5 PM, you can get the baked potato, but I would definitely skip their salad out of the bag. For the main course, I got shrimp and fish and the wife got hers baked not fried. The beans and slaw were ....meh, fries were ok. I hate to say it, but there's a lot of yelpers slapping down five stars on what is just 2 to 3 star grub. Part of the ambience here is dining on styrofoam plates and cups with a roll of paper towels at the ready. The service was friendly and attentive. The catfish actually wasn't too bad and it was the highlight of the meal, which isn't saying much. For the money, this place is a pass for us. So if you're looking to sit down to some great quality seafood, I would suggest looking elsewhere. If you have little to no expectations and like the vibe, this place is for you. And if this place is for you, they do have some dining areas set aside for private parties, although you may wish to avoid using the bathrooms, especially the women's. When you finally pay the bill with a credit card, you will be charged an additional 3.25%. I used cash. Nine photos included to help you decide. 21/2-3* read more

I met my friends here for a late lunch. We arrived at 2:00 p.m. which as too late for the buffet. I don't know what time it stops on other days but on Saturdays, it's at 2. The decor is fun. Old cash registers greet you as you walk in. Lots of old signs and stuff. Kind of like Cracker Barrel only with local flair. Service was great! Our server was friendly and courteous. We all had the small fish and shrimp plate which came with 2 catfish filets and 2 jumbo shrimp, 2 hush puppies and fries, coleslaw, and beans. It was more than any of us could finish. The fish was very tasty and the filets were portioned perfectly. The shrimp was yummy, too. I am a finicky coleslaw person but theirs was very good! It is creamy with just the right amount of vinegar. The fries were nothing special but good. The beans were thick and my husband really enjoyed them when I brought home the leftovers. I will definitely be back again. I recommend Springhill Restaurant read more

Review of Springhill Restaurant in Pflugerville Nestled in the heart of Pflugerville, Springhill Restaurant is a hidden gem offering a delightful selection of Southern comfort food classics. Their catfish fillets and fried shrimp steal the show, expertly fried to a crisp perfection and seasoned to tantalize the taste buds. Accompanied by homemade pinto beans, fries, and hush puppies, each dish adds its own unique flair to the dining experience. The homemade pinto beans are a standout feature, boasting rich flavor and a comforting texture that rivals even the best homemade recipes. Similarly, the hush puppies are a hit, with a perfect balance of crispy exterior and soft, flavorful interior. While my husband encountered a slightly burnt batch on one occasion, a second try confirmed their deliciousness, showcasing consistency in quality. In addition to the main dishes, Springhill impresses with its slaw, offering a refreshing accompaniment that complements the hearty flavors of the meal. However, during peak hours, the staff may appear slightly overwhelmed with pick-up orders, but their positive attitude prevails, ensuring a pleasant dining experience overall. The ambiance at Springhill is charming, with antique items adorning the walls and creating a cozy atmosphere that transports diners to a bygone era. Moreover, the cleanliness of the establishment is commendable, providing a welcoming environment for patrons. In summary, Springhill Restaurant offers a memorable dining experience with its delicious Southern fare and nostalgic ambiance. Despite minor inconsistencies, it remains a top choice for those seeking a taste of authentic Southern hospitality since its establishment in '85. O and you definitely get a sufficient amount of food! read more

If you are looking for fried comfort food, this is your place. The moment you step inside, you are greeted by relics from the past and good ol' southern hospitality. We went for dinner and it hit the spot for us. Hushpuppies, garden salad, chicken fried steak, baked potato and peach cobbler ala mode and the portion size is large enough that we shared all of this between two people. It's local and home style food. Give it a try! read more

Great service, Great catfish. I try to come here at least once a month. There are more items like chicken fried steak and burgers

Ate here on 11/26/2025 at lunch and had the buffet lunch for two. WOW! $50.00 plus. Used to be affordable but now simply outrageous. Will not go back until the prices go down. read more

The fried catfish here is the best in the area. A little spicy for my taste, but still excellent. We live in Austin but it's worth the drive to Pflugerville. read more

The food is fantastic and the service is always friendly and great. The problem , as usual, are the patrons at the buffet. This visit had a family of 7 with the parents and children aging from infant , toddler , 5, 7,8. The parents just let the 3 older kids loose at the buffet. The dad fixed his plate then told the kids "it's a buffet get what you want" I couldn't believe it. They were too small to reach up and get items so they were reaching as far as they could to get food. Dragging their arms across and scooping up what they could. There was Mac and cheese in the potatoes, potatoes in the gravy etc.. the parents weren't paying any attention , too ignorant to care. Management really needs to put signs up that kids under 12 need to be assisted by parents and hold them accountable. I was really hoping the waitress would see them and say something but she didn't. read more

Catfish is ALWAYS FRESH!! They're quick and when you arrive to pick up the service is always great!

No hidden fees please! I have ordered take out from this restaurant a couple times. Both times I ordered a 3 piece catfish with fries. The wait was fairly average, about 20 mins. The fries were cold BOTH times. I thought it was a fluke the first time but when I received the order the second time, it was the same. They were skimpy with the tarter sauce. Given the size of the fillets one would assume you would ATLEAST get two sauces. Ultimately the food was decent however, what perturbed me was the "to go charge" that is not openly communicated. I noticed it in the difference in price when I checked out. The first time I did the math in my head and realized I couldn't have gotten to that amount unless the actual price of the dish was incorrect. NOPE, when I ordered the second time and received the check, I asked why there was a price difference. The young girl didn't know so I asked her if there is a charge for "to go" orders. She eventually said yes. I was diligent in looking all over the menu, at the "to go" order station, web site and anywhere else it could be posted but nothing. With the cost of things rising, not cool to not be upfront about there being additional charges, for water, to go, sauces, anything! Not sure I will return, and if so, definitely not for "to go"! I'm not good with hidden fees. read more

I'm sad to say that Springhill isn't what it used to be. The fried catfish used to be nice and flaky, but over the last couple of years I have often found it to be very mushy. I take this to mean that they are microwaving the leftovers from the lunch buffet to serve for dinner. If it's not that, it means it's undercooked. On top of that, they now include a surcharge for using a credit card. I have since found some other places that do catfish to the level that Springhill was years ago. read more

2nd time coming here, first time really good, second time I got a to go order 5 mins ago, the food , fish old, fries cold, couldbt return had to make it back to work, disapointed read more

Springhill Restaurant - You can see the fish has been sitting and is old - Seafood Near Me - Pflugerville, Texas

As a lover of buffets and catfish, I was excited to come try this spot out. It's a very country style, more southern than western type of restaurant. They've got all the foods associated with the south like fried catfish, hush puppies, boiled green beans, carrots, mashed potatoes, and even fried gizzards! I love this type of food and having a buffet of it really satisfied my cravings. Lunch buffet is from 11-2 and costs about $16 with a water and $18 with a fountain drink. I would come again since I like it but I would point out that I love Golden Corral too and they have all the same dishes plus more there for a better price at lunch. But it's worth coming here for a slice of something different. read more

I don't know why we don't order from here more frequently. We had a hankering for fried catfish and decided since they are so close we'd give them a try. It had been years since my last visit. The pick up process (ordered during covid) was fast and simple. The staff were all friendly. The food was piping hot and delicious. Everything was fried to perfection. Their tarter sauce is delicious. Next time we're craving fried fish we will be back! read more

Currently as I sit in this restaurant I could only help to write a review. Lets first start with the amazing service you receive upon arrival. It was my first time so I did not know what to expect. I walked In and was greeted by a nice lady and I let her know It was my first time here and she let me know my options of eating to go or here at the restaurant .. but she drops the magical line on me " or you can eat at the BUFFET!!!" Boom I was sold and especially for 14.95! (I had arrived at 11am ) . She walked me through the place and also gave me nice seating. The food was hot and not stop steaming! Will definitely become a regular due to the staff and food quality along with service! read more

We finally made it to Springhill! We have been driving past this establishment for 3 years, and we finally decided to give it a try. Upon walking in you are greeted with classic Americana nostalgia, fishing gear and old signs hanging from the rafters with bicycles and endless other knickknacks and trinkets! I really enjoy places like this so I was very excited! To say we came in with zero expectations would be an understatement. The reviews weren't encouraging and I am not typically drawn to fried greasy food. However, I was very pleasantly surprised with our experience! I ended up ordering the sweet tea (delicious) and the shrimp and catfish combo basket with coleslaw and fries. I was pleasantly surprised by the breading on both fish and was happy to find that they were not too oily! The coleslaw had a nice crisp, although I think it could've had more color, and the fries were good! Friendly staff and happy patrons, we will definitely be coming back here for comfort meals! read more

Good old fashion catfish dinner restaurant that has a good selection of beers and other menu items. Sorry, we came for the catfish. Our party of four came for a late lunch and we got good service, we were one of three tables in the place.

For the last 10 years Springhill Restaurant has been one of my favorite places to eat. It's located in Pflugerville in a rustic barn style building decorated with vintage Texas memorabilia. The shrimp & catfish which I always get is super delicious whether fried or grilled & always served hot. The sides of hushpuppies, coleslaw, & beans are great with a tasty flavoring unique to Springhill - not out of a box or can like some other restaurants. You get a lot of food for the money with quick & friendly service so go there hungry & you won't be disappointed! read more

Went for lunch on 10/2/17 The place is set way back from the street and could be easy to miss. The inside is a little country and a little on the old side. I was seated quickly and a server came over in just a few minutes. I decided not to do the buffet because I really don't like to over eat if I can help it. I ordered the 2 piece Catfish plate. It came with 2 hush puppies that were tasty. The beans were just beans and nothing to write home about. The fries were very crunchy and Good and hot. The star of the show was the Catfish because they were great. They were fried to perfection. I really enjoyed the whole lunch and will bring the family back for dinner. read more

Been coming here for 30 years. The service is very good, very attentive. They have an awesome buffet every day from 11am to 2 pm. They also offer menu items. The fried catfish is awesome and they have chicken enchiladas. The delicious green beans are fresh made with diced onions and bacon. Buffet also has mashed potatoes, hush puppies, corn, sweet carrots, potato salad, Cole slaw, among many more items. Great country atmosphere and room for special events in the back. Looks like they have catering too. You gotta try them out! Jim C read more

Been here several times. Haven't had a bad experience on any visit! The food is always fresh and hot. The staff is always friendly and attentive. I got the "Regular" Catfish Plate. Catfish was hot and fresh. There seemed to be an extra piece or I just can't count. Either way, I didn't complain! My oldest grandson got a hamburger basket. As you can see from the pictures, it was huge. I don't think he even finished half of it. My youngest grandson got the popcorn shrimp basket. Let's just say, those shrimp were bigger than the hush puppies. So, they were the biggest popcorn I've ever seen! My oldest daughter was there with us as well. And for the life of me I can't remember what she had. I'll just go out on a limb and say it was great as well. Stop by if you have a chance. You wont be di read more

The dinner was perfect. Then we ordered the peach cobbler and ice cream and it was wonderful!! I will be back soon!! read more

This is a very cool family owned local restaurant. The ambitis very much a Texas restaurant with feed store signs, tablecloths with local businesses on them, etc. My girlfriend and I went there for dinner and she had the fried shrimp dinner and I had the catfish and shrimp dinner. The fried shrimp are HUGE and very tasty. I loved the catfish and their tartar sauce is good too! They were out of hush puppies, which sucked. We were looking forward to those. Their cole slaw has pineapple in it, not big chunks or anything but definitely that flavor and it's a canned pineapple flavor. We didn't care for it. They were short-staffed so the service was a little slow but not bad and the food came out pretty quickly. The blackberry cobbler there is UH-mazing. They serve it with Blue Bell vanilla ice cream and it was fantastic. The tea is also good here. I will definitely be back! read more
