Miller's Cafe

This was a solid burger place! It’s relatively quick, the portions are huge and reasonably priced.

The guacamole burger is super tasty, packed with flavor, completely messy (lots and lots of guacamole) and perfectly delicious! It’s one of the best tasting burgers I’ve had in a long while. The soft bun was part of the reason the burger tasted so great. Two thumbs up for the onion rings as well. Everything always looks so clean, the employees are very kind and welcoming, and the location is beyond convenient if you happen to have an appointment in the Scurlock Tower.😊

The BEST Philly Cheesesteaks amd fries! Cooked HOT 🔥 and ready to devour. Will definitely visit again when I'm in the Medical Center area.

Love it here! It’s my second time coming & The burgers are really Big and juicy The fries are crispy and the ambience is really cool. They have all kinds of burgers and sandwiches, chicken tenders & other goodies Only things I didn’t really like is that the burgers do not come with the fries! As a combo :( you have to buy them separate and the burger itself is $10+ •And they don’t make sweet tea Come on that’s a big no no in Texas! •I Also I bought oatmeal cookies And they were hard and burned :( Otherwise yes the burgers are really good so def a place to eat at!

The best hamburger ever!! I first went to Miller's in the medical center when taking or visiting my parents. My 78 year old mom always had to have her burger after a doctor visit. Just tried the N. Shepherd location and it is still the BEST I've ever had.

Stumbled on Miller’s Café while doing a delivery run one afternoon.. it’s on the first floor of Scurlock Tower, and man… what a find! Now I can’t help but swing by anytime I’m in the area. The flavor’s on point, prices are fair, and the service is solid. Their onion rings? Best in all of Houston, no doubt. And that Fried Chicken Steak Burger? Easily the GOAT. Great food.. this spot’s a hidden gem 🍔

This restaurant offers possibly the best burger in the medical center! The hamburger is very tasty and served in poppy seed buns. The fries are perfectly executed: crispy on the outside and tender when you bite in. Customer service is exceptional too!

Pretty good burger and chili cheese fries. The chili seemed made there but was a bit greasy. The burger was a step above fast food, but not amazing. I think the price of $23 was a bit high for this and a drink.

The food is always wonderful. The cost is affordable and the establishment is clean with and burger joint atmosphere.

I currently work at MD Anderson, but in my younger days, Methodist Hospital was my first big boy employer. One thing about that hospital that I miss is their variety of food options other than the hospital cafeteria. Miller's Cafe is located on the 1st floor of the Scurlock Towers. If you have a doctor's appointment, you are likely going to be in this tower. You can smell the wonderful aromas from the second floor even. I would treat myself to a meal here especially on the weekends when it was mainly an employee eating spot. On the weekdays, you will for sure run into a lunch and dinner rush. The house are limited to 8 hours on the weekdays and 5 hours on Saturday. You're not getting a burger from here on Sunday. I've been coming here for years and customer service is hit or miss depending on how busy it is. Odds are you either work at the hospital or are a patient at Methodist so you are already park. They do have other locations if you must have it otherwise. If you are looking for a quality, basic burger, Miller's is a good option. Don't get me wrong, they have options here, alot actually. It's just that it's slight variations from a regular hamburger. My go to is a regular bacon cheeseburger. It's a substantial burger as a single and they don't skimp on the bacon. It's topped with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, onions, mayo and mustard. It's all piled high on a poppy seed bun. Basic, but delicious. Reminds me of a homecooked burger. I like some of the fancy burgers you can get elsewhere too, but sometimes I want basic. Besides burgers, they have sandwiches, salads, hot dogs, chicken tenders and chili. The sides of regular fries and sweet potato fries are delicious, but their onion rings are outstanding, and I'm not even an onion ring guy. After all these years, I still like to take a nice stroll through the medical center and visit Miller's from time to time to get my old fashioned burger fix. I will be back.

No joke that this place is exactly the same for the past 20 or so years. They serve American food.... big fat burgers, frito pies, chicken strips, etc, all the food you shouldn't eat but will anyways. They mostly serve medical staff, patients and visitors to the hospital system in the Medical Center. Its not somewhere you are going to typically come if you aren't already in the med center. I know about the place, its a bit hidden inside the scurlock tower along the light rail line, 1st floor behind the elevators. I came from Hermann Park to check it out and was suprised its still here and looks exactly the same inside and out. The place does close early-ish, around 5pm I think.

I came here months back bc this used to be one of my favorite burger places before 2015. However, my last togo order consisting of a Cheeseburger with Onion Rings was pretty much awful. The onion rings were crunchy, fresh and tasty, but the burger patty was very under-seasoned and just not good quality. I don't know if it's new cooks, ownership or both, but it was very disappointing.

I rarely finish my food but my lunch was delicious that I could not stop eating. Excellent burger, onion rings and service!

Always loved eating here and the burgers growing up.... Came today in the medical center for lunch very disappointed the Pattie's were paper thin frozen not thick and fresh/ homemade as I remember and prices are higher. I know beef has gone up and the increase but don't cheat your customers of the quality they they are accustomed to. Why is a BLT $10!!!!! More than a burger

We came to this restaurant after a family member had finished tests at the Methodist hospital. The reviews looked good on the Yelp site so we stopped by around 4:45, after noticing on their website they were open until 6 but their sign on the door showed they closed at 5! When we showed up at 4:45pm they were happy to serve us and said don't worry that they would be there for awhile as they needed to clean up anyway. I got the double burger with bacon and onion rings and I must say that was a delicious burger and the onion rings tasted homemade!

Super convenient lunch spot as it's in the hospital I work in! We've come here multiple times and I have always enjoyed their food! It's fresh and made to order. They get super busy at lunch rush -but they do take phone orders for faster pick up. Super affordable for what you get. It's def more on the heavy side for lunch lol but if you're hungry it's a great spot!

Juicy burgers and crispy onion rings. What else can you ask for? This place has been here for the 12 years that I've visited. It may be older. It says it's been around since 1980. They've also got the vegetarian Beyond Burgers! Thats a plus in my book.

Food home style and good and wonderful workers ‼‼‼ so friendly to us . Thank you very kindly

So good! Burgers are big and tasty. The fries are good. They aren't super fast but it's usually packed. But it's worth the wait. They take their time with the burgers and they are very very good.

Extremely good. Excellent service. I would recommend anyone in Houston medical center to come and try it.

I live in CO now but I used to live in Houston and was introduced to Miller's from a girlfriend, I loved that place from the get- go from the atmosphere to the food. We would be there 2-3 time a week. I totally miss this place.

Ranted and raved about the best burger spot in the med center We decided to order for lunch Got our burgers walked back across the street to find dry patties bacon cheese burger with 1 slice of bacon and soggy buns due to 10 pickels I was literally a cold mess Welp...it was good while it lasted

I was excited to give this place a try after hearing so much about it, but in the end it wasn't anything special. It was a decent burger and onion rings, but for the price I wasn't wowed. The food is fine and given the options in the Med Center, it's pretty good by comparison. However, there are many better burgers to be had around town.

Food was excellent and the people were all really nice even tho we came in about 15mins before closing. Great place.

(Methodist Hospital on Fannin)If you're looking for a burger that's on par with a mcdonalds cheese burger meat patty for 5 times the price and where you have paid for parking to get there then there you go. They should rename it bread burger also the philly burger is just mash up burger meat not real sirloin. I have enjoyed a homestyle mcdonalds way better that these burgers, do not mind paying the price for on par burger patties. Who ever returns to that place must really be deprived of a real burger meat patty with flavor, JLB is at least 10 times better and for the same price. Do not recommend, they're a scam.

I miller's cafe! Look at my birthday burger! This place will definitely make trips to the hospital better.

So the Med center is lacking good food. Sure it's edible and it won't kill you. But having real good food you can walk to is hard here. Millers is not the exception. Whenever a place claims to have the "worlds best" anything, it's going to be mediocre at best. So I saw a "worlds best turkey burger" so why the hell not. It wasn't inedible, but it wasn't good either. The onion rings were okay. No complaints there, and I had a pop. They use a seeded bun, which might upset some purists out there. But it was a good bun. Veggies were crisp and fresh, so that was nice. It wasn't that busy during lunch, which was a relief. And I cannot comment on the real burgers or chicken breast sandwiches. So maybe they're better? Who knows. All I know is I wish a non chain restaurant would open up in the Med center that was good.

It may be because of the rent at Scurlock Tower in the Medical Center, but the food is very pricey for what you get. My black bean burger with cheese, fries, and a drink came out to $14 with tax included. Ouch. Twice the cost of what I can get around the medical center, but this was more tasty. Service is at the counter, and the burgers are made to order so it will take about 10-15 minutes to get your food. My black bean burger was tasty although I was confused that the cheddar I asked for came in shredded form. It blended with the vegetables better so I didn't mind. Fries tasted standard and the portion was small for $2.75. The restaurant had a steady line throughout lunch, but this is probably the only time I'll visit.

Best burger in town is what they advertise- good size turkey burger, nice soft poppy see bun, fresh lettuce. More beef burger than turkey- skinny sweet potato fries were perfect It was a great place stop for lunch

THEY HAVE THE BEST BLACK BEAN BURGER EVER!! I come here during lunch sometimes since I work in the Med Center and their food is delicious. The food comes out on time and the cashiers are friendly and efficient when taking orders. My burger was 100% vegan (depending if you add cheese or not), so there are options if you prefer not to eat red meat or chicken. The burgers are also a decent size and will make you feel full. I think this place can get a bit pricey but I think it's worth the amount you pay because the burgers are of high quality taste. Their sides are limited, however, and have either fries, sweet potato fries or onion rings. All in all I highly recommend trying this place out if you are ever in the Med Center!

In the Med Center, close to work. Call ahead to skip lines. Black bean burger is actually pretty good. Beware sizes are humongous almost no need for sides.

(Scurlock Tower site) -Staff was friendly. -Burgers&fries were okay. -Onion rings were very disappointing, just minced onions with plenty of breading. -Had a variety of beverages, including V-8, but not beer or other booze. -Wall ads and website lied. Closing time was 5p. -Menu pictured, but poorly photographed. -Website menu reference broken. (millerscafehouston.com) -Website menu reference vague. (places.singleplatform.com/millers-cafe-4/menu)

Tip: you can call ahead and pickup your order without waiting in line. A place you wouldn't complain about going to but don't really crave either. If you aren't working in the med center or visiting it doesn't warrant a special trip. A bunch of options have recently opened in the area so there are a lot of places to eat, but if you are craving a budget burger Miller's isn't a bad option. My favorite burger probably is the Mushroom Swiss.

This place closes at 5pm and has not bothered to update their hours on their site! Poor business practices!! Very unhappy as I have tried to order multiple times and they don't answer the phone or have a recorded message!

The best burger in the med center. They arent fancy or creative, just classic simple and delicious. They also have chicken sandwiches called Cluckers. I also like their chicken fried steak sandwiches. If you are feeling healthy Miller's has salads but they for sure arent the main attraction. Your sides are fries, onion rings and sweet potato fries.

I was patient at a hospital near by, I found Miller's for a late lunch. Walked in diner was very clean. I ordered the Turkey burger which came on a sesame bun and several slices of Turkey with lettuce, tomatoes, Mayo. Burger was very tasty and plentiful. Ordered onion rings which were fresh and hot! Overall my experience was great!!!

Miller's is another OK restaurant in the Medical Center. I usually get the cheeseburger when I go, although I've tried the spicy bean burger and it's decent as well. The line tends to be pretty reasonable, although it can be quite tricky to find a seat during peak lunch hours. Overall, would go here over some other restaurants in the Medical Center, but I don't leave feeling super inspired.

If you want a really great, juicy and greasy burger and you're in the med center look no further cuz Miller's fits the bill. The burgers are really good, and my fave is the turkey burger. They have really awesome sweet potato fries, too. If you work in the area, make sure to call your order in because getting down here and ordering can be chaotic - there is usually a REALLY long line just to get to the counter to order plus the minimum 10 min wait for your order (totally worth it though) OMG, they have a BLT that I swear has like a pound of bacon on it and served on a massive hamburger bun (good thing too or it'd fall apart on regular toast). They can be a touch pricey, but I promise it is SOOOOOO worth it....made fresh and thick, juicy patties.

So I was in the hunt of something different and was hoping to check out murphy's deli but they stopped serving the hot dishes by the time I got there so I decided to give this place another shot. Trick me once, shame on you. Trick me twice, shame on me. Trick me three times and I got what I deserved Well you won't get that third chance. Greasy flavorless burgers. Terrible fries. And once again they messed up my order, double bacon cheeseburger, no bacon. NEVER AGAIN!!!

I think I made a big mistake. Because I came here and ordered the "cluck" aka chicken breast sandwhich, which was borderline unedible. I drenched it in ketchup to help make it less dry. The bun was stale. Not a fan. Sweet potatoes fries were really good. I would come back for those. I also tried the bacon burger. I was not really impressed. I don't get what all the fuss is about. But I will tell you .....if you must eat here. You better order something covered in chili or bacon and be prepared to wait. I'll stick with becks for my fast food burgers.

I've never been a fan of poppy seed buns - no added flavor and just added mess. Although the workers are really quite nice, the burgers are very disappointing. Not much flavor, and very greasy - take lots of napkins. A bit of a mess when you are eating there at lunch wearing a tie and dress shirt.

i LOVE their turkey burgers here! The burgers here aren't your average sized burgers they are pretty big. There is usually a long line during lunch rush hour so I suggest calling in your order ahead of time. But I would not order the fries or onion rings cause they are not so great.

2.75 Stars. Only have eaten here a hand full of times in the past couple of years. Some of my coworkers look forward to eating here, I guess because its "something different" than the normal cafeteria food. I've had the Clucker sandwich but my chicken was dry and underwhelming. The other times I have ordered the chicken tenders and they are HUGE! Can definitely shared or made into 2 meals. They fries need something....flavor or just some type of seasoning or ALOT of seasoning. I've been eyeing their frito pie or hotdog or the hamburgers they are so well known for.

I work in the Med center so when I don't bring my lunch from home, I always go to Miller's. I always call it in over the phone and it's usually ready in ten minutes. I usually stick to burgers and my go to is the double bacon cheeseburger (really big and tasty). Other burgers are great too. The owners are always really nice and the service is great. Would def recommend.

Best blue cheese burger I've ever had! Chicken tenders are huge! I always have leftovers enough for dinner. Extremely convenient since I work in the medical center, and everything is made to order. Love this place!

I don't know why, but I can't seem to write a review of Miller's without descending into imagery best suited for reviews of made for cinemax movies and romance novels. So, instead of discussing meat orgies and delicious buns, I'll just say that the burgers and sandwiches are delicious, the service prompt, and the price cheap. The one negative is the tremendous line that forms to order/pay if you get there after 11:30.

Three words: Better than Cliff's. Burgers are tasty. You can actually smell them on Fannin street during lunch rush. When I walk in there, I feel so rushed when I get in there because none of their menu items have a descriptor. What is on the Blah De Blah Blah? ... I want to ask, but I feel rushed, so I just order Blah with Blah Blah. Onion rings are really something you can live without. Same with the fries (they are alright, better than the onion rings). But overall, best burger in the TMC. Sorry MickyDs in Ben Taub.

Prob the best burger I've had in a long time. Management please be aware that the customer service is top notch. It made our evening!!! I wish u could give more stars

Pretty good cheeseburger I give it 7.5/10. Im giving this restaurant 3 stars cuz this old dude in the front is an asshole Chilli cheese fries is okay, 5/10

when i rolled up on stantons and found it closed due to fire..i should have just went to a non-burger place as to not interupt the burger gods@rest...but noooooooooooooooooo had to go here & messed up my burgavision!!! save for the sweet potato fries that were good but def not worth 2.75 the burgers were horrible!!! totally flavorless!!!

Located on the 1st floor of the Scurlock Tower across the street from The Methodist Hospital in the Texas Medical Center. Always good burgers made to order. Always fresh and always delicious.

Miller's has become our favorite go to eatery in the Texas Medical Center. The food is delicious regardless of what you order and the staff is always kind and helpful. You won't be disappointed, go try one of the best old fashioned burgers in Houston!!

Excellent food I don't think it's pricey you have a family owned restaurant. not cafeteria quality food you want quality you pay little extra Ribeye sandwich beyond!

Just ok, particularly for the price. Meat is pretty pedestrian and their menu is essentially a conglomeration of single topping burgers that are marketed as somehow standalone creations. Additional toppings can be added for a fee. Fries and onion rings are nothing to write home about. Paying this much for a mediocre a la carte burger drops my rating to two stars.

always a guilty pleasure for work. the burgers are huge! and i love the poppy seed buns...check your teeth afterward. like other people have said...fries are okay, usually over-fried (if that's possible). one thing i would suggest is the chicken strip burger definitely call in your order...they're always ready within 10 minutes and they don't close until 6. and yea...they do mess up my order sometimes...i just pick out my tomatoes.

Staying at the medical center. Trying diffrent options. The chicken salad sandwich hit the spot. The sandwich was very tasty. Highly recomend it. Very friendly staff.

This has to be one of the best burgers I have ever had!!! It big, tasty, not overpriced... Family owned buissnes, godd ambience.
