    Well, that settles it, can't read 3 pages about burgers at 11am. Screw the ice, headed to the Spicewood General for a baconcheese. Yall can keep your fast food.

    That's true. For a cheap burger place, I prefer Whataburger because it's good, and it's convenient (within walking distance of my dorm).

    lol at hipsters saying there is a better burger place in Austin, obviously there are better burgers but they are not in-n-out.

    Double double animal style with animal fries is just as good as any local place not saying it is better but just as good.

    Just went yesterday. Got food within 15 minutes. My wife, a lifelong Whataburger fan agreed that it was far fresher and delicious than any Whataburger offering.

    Worth the 2 hour and 20 minute drive. Well done Austin.

    No, burgers are burgers; people buy on proximity, speed of service and familiarity.

    Whataburger used to be better, but their quality has decreased dramatically in the past 10 years. There was a time when I would have said Whataburger was better, but not any more.

    If you ask them, they can grill the onions for your burger.

    Customize your meal, whether it's animal style or fries cooked a certain way. You can even ask for a Neapolitan shake. Need more kick? Ask for some chilies.

    If you're looking for size, In-N-Out isn't your place. If you want fresh ingredients, good service, and don't want to end up paying $10+, then you found a place.

    oh i see! lol

    They also got Pink Lemonade. I wish they got Strawberry.

    And for the dudes who are extra hungry, you can actually increase the size and get a 4x4. It used to be more.

    I wouldn't recommend ordering it right off the menu, instead indulge in customizing off the "secret" menu. I ask for the fries to be cooked light well, which makes it more crispy just like how I like my fried chicken.

    My apologies on the size of the pic. I didn't think it would be that big. I reported myself.

    Has anyone been to the Airport Blvd location yet? I want to go there for lunch tomorrow but not if they're having crazy waiting lines.

    Was there at 1 pm on Saturday, drive thru was quite busy and inside was a nuthouse but still had food within 15 minutes. The ones I've frequented in California took just as long with less crowds.

    I went on a weekday around noon. Went inside, wasn't bad at all. No line.
