Bill's Burgers, Wings and Things ... 2 blocks west of 281 on the north side of hwy 29 at Hamilton Creek. Hand made burger patties, daily fresh cut fries and onion rings .... a 1/2 order of either is plenty for one person. I prefer the Swiss and mushroom with fresh grilled jalapenos. Good stuff!!!

Storm's is a solid burger.

There’s a location in Lampasas and Burnet on 281.

Storm's in Burnet is about 4 blocks north of hwy 29 on the west side of 281. That is the original burger joint called Buster's from back in the 50s-80s before Storms bought them out and remodeled. Storms in Lampasas is on the east side of 281/183 kinda middle of town. They are known for the Storm's special which is a 1/2# triple meat burger with fresh cut fries, which was one of my go-to burgers for many years ... I think Bill's (mentioned above in Burnet) is better, but that's my opinion.
