A piece of Galveston down to the Hobby airport. I had an afternoon flight and were craving a meal. When I walked up there was only one other person there in line. One annoying but minor thing is that there are registers but I guess they're for to go orders only I waited in line for like 5 mins before the cashier tells me to goto the bar to order. But at any rate the bar tender was super friendly and checked in frequently. I ordered a shrimp poboy and it came out quickly and fresh! Plus it was a really large portion. It was rated GAF! Any way I had a good meal and service I would come back if I have time for a bite! read more

Solid food and good service is available to hungry travelers here. I recommend the chips and queso, which can also be ordered as chips and salsa. Chips were crispy and fresh and the queso was standard. I particularly liked pthe fries because they were waffle fries and seasoned. Served hot and fresh with ketchup, these totally hit the spot. read more

Stop by for breakfast before my flight in the AM. It was 9 am so was seated without any wait. Server was nice, although service was a bit slow especially considering it's in an airport. My food was okay, nothing special. Sort of generic bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast taco on corn tortilla. Potatoes were very obviously frozen tator tots. read more

Nice spot to get a quality meal quickly - service was great and they had plenty of power plugs by the booths. We both got the chorizo, egg & cheese tacos. The included breakfast potato's were great - the tacos themselves were good, I wish they would have had a little more chorizo, and the corn tortillas were a little dense, but overall it was good for an airport meal. They also did a good job making it cute for being in an airport hallway. read more

Based on this being an airport spot (haha, Spot) i thoroughly enjoyed wasting time here . DAsia was a doll! She was attentive and always ready to offer service. I ordered wings which were delicious. It's a relaxed spot and has a quick service option. I was here on a Wednesday afternoon and it wasn't too busy, but I was able to observe a couple other bartenders and DAsia was hands down the friendliest and most efficient. If I'm ever in the area again and have time for a drink or snack I would definitely come here again read more

There are multiple places to eat at Houston Hobby Airport. I always looked forward to Pappa's Burgers or Pappadeux. Unfortunately, both are gone. I stopped at The Spot near Gate 1. Horrible service. Waited longer than I should have before I was seated even though there appeared to be a lot of employees. They just looked me in the eyes and kept walking. I was within seconds of walking back to the main terminal but was then seated. I'm always a big fan of fried shrimp in Houston as they are always fresh and delicious. Had to have the fried shrimp/fries. It was fine. The adult bevies are outrageously over-priced, even for an airport. No thank you. Service needs a lot of tweaking. No follow up or water refill. No attention until it was time to pay the bill. I will not return when traveling through Houston Hobby, again. There are too many other places at the airport where I can fix my fried shrimp craving. read more

Nice people behind the bar, service time was good, my Chicken Sandwich was a good size and delicious. I upgraded to Onion Rings and got 4! They have a sample platter with 4 different small bites. One of them is Shrimp and I am allergic. I asked if we could swap it out with more of one of the others. The answer was no. No flexibility, even for those with food allergies. Next time Ill go somewhere else when at Hobby Airport. read more

I had a layover at Houston Hobby airport this morning and went on Yelp to locate a good place for breakfast. The best reviews were for "The Spot" at the beginning of the International terminal. The service was excellent and the food was very good. I ordered the chocolate chip pancakes. They were huge. They were a tiny bit on the dryer side but still really good. I asked for extra butter and syrup which they were happy to oblige. I'm really glad that I have found another good airport restaurant. So many are sorely disappointing. Even though the prices are a little more than I would expect OUTSIDE of an airport, the pricing was very fair for being IN an airport since prices for everything at airports is high. read more

The Cheeseburger was really good, the service was really amazing and the ambiance of this restaurant was really amazing!

This was an amazing find! If you are looking for a yummy breakfast stop definitely go here. The pancakes are super yummy! The food came very fast! The server was super nice too! There is this big painting it was so pretty! Overall you should definitely go here read more

I was eager to try one of the new restaurants in Hobby. The spot is in the international terminal so it's nice theme for that side of the airport. It is very colorful and welcoming. I came around 8:30 pm and it was pretty empty. Service was just okay, my server was preparing for close so she didn't feel very present. The food was pretty good but airport expensive as expected. I ordered the queso and it came out a bit cool so it wasn't very dippy. The honey hot chicken was delish but half the bun was dry. I decided to ditch the bread since it didn't seem worth it. I really enjoyed relaxing in this space, the abundance of outlets was very appreciated! read more

Stuck in Hou after missing an international connection, so sleepy, hungry, and busy rebooking a bunch of stuff (stressed out), we went here for... brunch, I guess. My +1 got the burger and said it was average. He's not a foodie but he says it was "fine." In the military, we say NSTR - nothing significant to report. I had the hot honey chicken sandwich. Tasty, but didn't blow my socks off. My hands were exceedingly messy afterwards! The slaw on it was good. Service was friendly and efficient - terrific job there. Points off for the weak coffee, a definite area for improvement. We didn't get drinks but hopefully they're better than the coffee. I saw a Starbucks cup on another table; if you need joe, perhaps bring it from a coffee shop. Would I stop here again when in the airport? Maybe but there are other venues I'd try first. read more

My husband connected at Hobby a few days before me and our daughter and after stopping here for a burger, he told us how good they are. A few days later our daughter and I stopped in and even though I was tempted by the Cobb salad or fish tacos, I got a specialty burger and she did too. They were excellent! You can get a basic one or a specialty one. (Hers had bacon and fried onions and mine had bacon jam and fried jalapeños!) Delicious. They're served with waffle fries. Only minus one star for high airport pricing. read more

I'm a fan of The Spot on Galveston Island, so I was pleased to see The Spot at gate 1 in the international terminal. It was 8am-ish and they were open serving breakfast, coffee, mimosas, bloody marys, and espresso martinis... etc. From the breakfast menu, the only thing that was gluten-free was their breakfast taco plate served with two corn torilla breakfast tacos, breakfast potatoes, and a *really* good salsa. I also got a coffee ...they don't have alt-milk. :/ Sunday - Friday | 7am-10pm Saturday | 7am-9:30pm read more

I was disappointed that the Pappas restaurants were removed from hobby airport. Until I found out that The Spot was going to be one of the replacements. I've loved the spot in Galveston. Now I get it anytime I'm in the international terminal! And the service is so much better than pappasitos was. The bartender at the spot is super friendly. Everything on the seafood platter was perfect. And my husband's burger was what he's come to expect from the spot. So happy to have this place conveniently in the airport. read more

Drink prices were amazing for the airport. I got a rum flight for $18, super good. Glass of wine was only $11. Hubs and I shared the sweet and spicy burger with onion rings which was excellent. Kayla was a phenomenal server. She made recommendations and was there with perfect timing. My water was always filled. read more

Up charge for onion rings was. $1.50. I got 4 (four). Chicken burger was tiny and over cooked! Do your self a favor and stop at sonic on the way to the airport . New contract forced previous chains out! read more

Wonderful service, prompt sit down and peaceful table availability before catching your flight. Just what you need before leaving Texas. Fried Cod (Baja) tacos are large, filling, and flavorful. Waitress also recommended the shrimp po'boy as a customer favorite. Take the quick pit stop and fuel up! read more

If you offer a glass for $10 if you buy a certain drink don't say you can't buy it after you bought the drink just to get the glass.

Why doesn't this place carry more local beers? I can get a Budweiser anywhere. Not asking for too much

ordered shrimp and a beer at The Spot at Hoby Airport 45 minutes before my flight boarded. The shrimp never arrived, with the bartender unable to cancel or not charge me. I ended up with a $45 beer. If this restaurant operates at the airport, they need to move their kitchen to allow a reasonable time before people need to catch their flight. Apparently the management isn't up to the task. read more

Place was pretty busy but I was seated promptly. Waitress was nice and took my order not too far afterwards. Order the Sweet and Spicy. (Bacon jam, fried Jalapenos Gouda cheese). Upcharged for some onion rings. When the food came out, a decent sized burger was on the plate. Then I had to eat it. The fried jalapeños were cold. Almost as if they were flashed fried and not cooked. The rest of the burger was very good. My onion rings were at least warm but they had no flavor and tasted very floury. I have eaten at the Spot in Galveston numerous times and don't remember ever being this disappointed with the food. Hopefully this is a one off. read more

Ordered the traditional breakfast. Bacon was over salty I didn't finish. Eggs were a 3 and potatoes a 5. Coffee was fine and service was good. read more

So I wondered why the line at the spot was so short compared to Chick-fil-A across the corridor. I think I know why. The poor customer service. I ordered over $20 worth of food and because I had a toddler I asked him to package it to go, but we would eat there. I went to sit down at a table and I had a very rude employee come up to me to tell me that I could not sit there even though I had bought food and was eating it. I had at least two more employees. Tell me to really leave over the course of 5 to 10 minutes. They actually referred me to go sit at Chick-fil-A. read more

Ron at The Spot near Gate 4 at Houston Hobby was excellent and the only bartender for Sunday afternoon. we appreciated his great attitude and service! Thank you, Ron! read more

We got seats and then they told us we had to move to a smaller table. Upon waiting for the waitress for 5 minutes we went to the counter to order and were then told that if we ordered there it's to go only and we would have to leave the table. This is our very first experience in Texas and it was not a good or welcoming one. read more

We were running late for a flight, but tried these guys out. The gal at the counter helped out behind the window to rush our order along--very nice! We did the black bean burger. It was surprisingly ample and came with cross-cut fries. Both had great "island" seasoning which were very tasty. We thought the cost was very fair, especially for getting well fed! read more

Friday morning- 3-28-25: Employees are rude, the drinks are over priced and they wouldn't let us sit at one of their tables after we ordered food. Will never eat at this restaurant again b read more

Bar tender rude, after it took him several minutes to make it to us. We're here 2 times a month and will not go back till he's gone.

Not the same as Pappasitos. There's not that many customers and they don't allow food to be ordered that the bar.

I experienced rude and unpleasant service from the servers, bartender, and host--definitely the worst customer service I've ever encountered. I was rushed out of the restaurant because I ordered my food to go, even though I never mentioned that it was for takeout. The food was mediocre, but my overall experience was negatively impacted by the service. As a restaurant manager myself, I have never been treated this way in any dining establishment. read more

Three stars for the grilled shrimp. The green rice, and the King Burger were all unseasoned and underwhelming.

First time to eat at The Spot. Not sure if the actual location is better than the airport but food was pretty poor. Defiantly a down grade from pappadeaux. read more

I was waiting on a connecting flight and ordered the veggie burger. The server behind the bar brought me a beef burger. I took a bite and spat it into a napkin as it tasted like meat. I asked him are you sure this is a veggie burger and he said yes. I wasn't convinced so I said it tasted like meat and the woman next to me said "Wait, did you just mix up our orders?" He looked at her blankly and continued to try and convince us we were both wrong. Thanks The Spot for making a vegetarian of 40 years take a bite of something they don't eat. read more

Ordered food at counter then told we couldn't sit in restaurant. Two wait staff asked us to leave. When I asked for a manager, no one showed up. After complaining I got 6 chips in my to go box with my burger. 6 chips! read more
