When I worked at THS and my lunch lined up with my CTE friends, we often made a lunchtime trek to Wes’s old location, but that was years ago! This was my first time at this location and the burger and onion rings were just as good as I remember them. My wife and I visited today for lunch and even though they were busy, we found a good spot and a server quickly took our order. Our food came out faster than I expected and as I said, it was excellent. Prices are reasonable, service and food are excellent. I highly recommend Wes’s Burger Shack!!

We stopped at Wes’s Burger Shack in Temple on a Thursday for lunch at 12 noon. The Burger Shack is only open from 10 to 3 during the weekdays and is closed on the weekend. It was busy when we got there, but we were able to get a table right away (it’s a seat yourself type of place). From the outside, it looks more like a metal building used car dealership and the inside is nothing fancy, but don’t let that deter you! This is a GREAT place to go and grab some lunch! This is the kind of local family-run small business that I dream about finding! Everyone that worked there was very friendly and attentive to every table. The servers knew the names of some of the customers, so there is clearly a strong repeat clientele. The owner, Wes, and his wife were cooking in the back open kitchen

Oh My God…This Burger was SOOOOooOO Good. The beer batter onion rings were some of the best I’ve ever had. Last night was our first time visiting and it is now our go to place for the BEST BURGERS EVER! Please come to Waco, TX.
