Cream Burger

Hamburger restaurant · Greater Third Ward

@infatuation

"Cream Burger is down the street from the TDECU stadium, which makes it the go-to spot before kickoff or for post-game fuel after cheering for the Coogs from the student section. The Third Ward stand has been around since the ‘60s, and little has changed since then—it’s still a cash-only joint serving burgers, chili-covered hot dogs, and milkshakes for single-digit prices. Outside of a couple of tables under their awning, there’s not much space to camp out here, so plan to have your beef-fueled meal from the backseat of whoever’s Toyota Corolla you carpooled in.
