the best burgers are made in my back yard by me! =)

Bootsburger in Rockwall!

I want to tell you I loooove me some hamburgers. This might sound stupid to a bunch of you but my dream is to open up my own restaurant with the main focus being burgers. Therefore I do a lot of research. But it is a dream.

Anyway, here are my reviews.

Boots Burgers -

Food - 2 stars - Burgers just aren't very big for the price with an ok taste to them.
Atmosphere - 2 stars - Served out of a shack next to their house.
Service - 1.5 stars - When they run out, you're out of luck. You have to get there early. The guys kind of seemed like they were in kind of a bad mood when I went. They have signs that discourage eating your food on site at the picnic table.

Meer's Restaurant - We went this weekend on the way to out deer lease in Throckmorton after dropping off our son at SWOSU for his freshman year of college.

Food - 2 stars - It was an ok burger. I expected better. It lacked seasoning. It is a half pound burger mashed down on the flat top to fit a seven inch bun. They then load a ton of condiments and mustard. On my first bite, I couldn't taste the meat because of all of the veggies. I ended up taking a bunch of them off so I could taste the burger. My wife felt the same way.

Onion Rings and fries were good, as well as the 22oz Meers Beer. All other drinks are served in a BIG mason jar with free refills on tea, water, and lemonade.

Atmosphere - 4 stars - If you want to go somewhere where it will take you back to what it was like to live in the country. This is the place. Really cool feel to the place. It was built back in the early 1900's and has a lot of history behind it. I like places like that. It is a feeling you can't recreate.

Service - 4 stars - The waitress was very, very nice and answered all our questions. One thing you need to know if you plan on going up there - it is CASH ONLY and is closed on Tuesdays. We knew this going up so it wasn't a big deal. The nearest ATM is 11 miles away.

But overall, the atmoshere is what makes Meers a top 3 on the Yahoo Best Burgers list. It's not the burger. I will go back though if I go to the deer lease from SWOSU

Dude bootsburger has been there prolly 50 years that is the point, gotta get a doubledouble to get the taste, and you aint supposed to eat there, and there is a reason they sell out of meat everyday!

Alice Fay's in Rockport.

Burgers and Billiards in Graham.

The hole in the wall, at 635 and harryhines is preety good. Plus on the weekends they have live blues.

I ate dairyland in jacksboro on the way out to olney, thought it was about like eating at sonic so don't think it should be considered some great burger and I hope you never eat another bootsburger

Not sure. Get the mushroom swiss burger if they are.

hole in the wall is a good burger for sure!

Not confused! You have to go easy on bootsburger, out of towners just dont get it I guess, but there is something there or they wouldnt sell out of meat everyday they open the door, wanna go sit down or french fries not your place, but there alot of people that grew up in Rockwall that will argue with you all day. Enough said, and you can keep dairyland to yourself, I will grab a bootsburger on the way out of town.

in coleman, the corral has some dang good burgers & other food

We'll agree to disagree . There is something to say about the old places like Boots, Dairyland, and Meers that continue to stay in business today. They all have something that keep people coming back.

I am about to have another burger besides my 100% Angus burger on the menu at the Fire Oak Grill in Weatherford. I am adding a 100% Kobe Burger. Also at the Weatherford Downtown Cafe, Ive got an awesome burger. check out www.firoakgrill.com ,and www.weatherforddowntowncafe.com !

Storms Hamburger in Hamilton!!

sorry I can't agree with Alice Fay's, my daughter was a teacher in Rockport last year spent some time down there, maybe I went there on a couple of bad days but I was not impressed. The best one I have found on the road is Juciy burger in Longview, it was great and they give you ranch style beans all you want with the burgers.

A Keller's #5 burger and an ice cold beer.........SWEET!

CB's Hamburgers, Greenville, Texas.

Guys I know this sounds one sided but Coleman has some of the best burgers in the state. Several places here do a really good job with a burger!!
