Sandy's Hamburgers

"This old-school South Austin burger and custard stand was opened in 1946, and today, it makes for a great pit stop pre- or post-Barton Springs, Zilker Park hangs, or Austin’s ACL Music Festival. It is a classic burger joint with a distinctive soft-serve neon sign that makes everyone think about stopping in for a cone. Lowkey, though, the frozen custards are the move." - Melanie Haupt

"Are these the best hamburgers in Austin? Who knows. Does it hit the spot and come with a side of frozen custard? Hell yes. It’s open from 10 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. daily; takeout orders can be placed in person." - Erin Russell, Nadia Chaudhury

"Order the time-honored combination of burgers, fries, and ice cream from the Barton Springs icon for under $12. Takeout orders can be placed in person." - Erin Russell, Nadia Chaudhury

"The oh-so-classic South Austin restaurant’s got equally-as-classic hot dogs on its menu, that can be topped with chili, onions, and optional cheese. There are outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury

"Classic custard, no frills is what you’ll find at the Bouldin Creek drive-thru. Seriously. If you want to get fancy, get a chocolate/vanilla swirl. Takeout orders can be placed in person; there are outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury, Erin Russell
