The girl at the window is exceptionally rude and off putting. I had a decent hamburger from there about a week ago and I still thought it took too long but I'm gonna give them another chance because it look like the type of food my elderly mother would like to eat. I probably won't be back Edit: upon getting home - the INSTANT mashed potatoes were dry and cold. I had to add butter and milk and heat to make it eatable for me mother. The gravy is a gelatinous mess and also not hot. They left off the corn, and the lettuce in the salad is dirty. Wasted time and money.

Charge you full price, forget half the order, serve you limp chicken and soggy fries, then act like you're the problem. Never going back. Total waste of money.

11June2026 I have been married to a Lubbock Native for 27…read moreyears now, and for all of this time, I have been hearing about Spanky's, just across from Texas Tech University. She has been hyping up this joint forever and during this trip to her hometown, we ended up there on our first night we were in town. On the outside, it looks like the typical university food joint that could be at any university town across America. It was small with a few tables and booths and had stuff across the walls that yelled TEXAS TECH RED RAIDERS so loud that it could be seen from the ISS. Apparently, the owner is a big fan and possibly an Alumna of TTU. We ordered the hand dipped mushrooms and onion rings to go along with our burgers. Little did I know what an experience the two appetizers would be. Lets just say that I have NEVER has such wonderful shrooms and rings ... ever. Thats saying something. The mushrooms are not the typical soft, mushy ones that many places serve out of the Sysco bags ... no, these were easily identifiable as button mushrooms even through the crispiness of the batter. Firm, sliceable and easily skewered by a fork to be dipped in ranch sauce. In short ... they were lip-smackin good. The onion rings, dipped in the same batter, cooked in the same oil and served at the same temperature were just as delectable. They were thick sliced sweet yellows that held their toothiness throughout the frying process. Just the bite into it was yummy, sweet and crispy ... all at the same time. These reminded me of the onion rings I used to get at Tookies down in Seabrook, Tx during the 70's and 80's. For my main, I chose the "Hotter than Hell Burger" with crinkle fries. I like hot and spicy and expected it to actually be hotter than it was. The sliced jalapeño and habanero spread were present and did the job of letting my taste buds know they were doing their job. It just wasn't the knockout I was expecting from a burger place serving university students that would eat really spicy stuff on a dare. Don't get me wrong, that burger was really good, just as my Wife said it would be. That statement is truth, not hype, but hotter than hell, naah. More like hotter than heck. My biggest disappointment was the limited selection of good beer. Light beer, cheap lagers and Mexican standards. Would it hurt to put in an IPA or a Stout? Overall, the staff were wonderful and answered any of the myriad of questions I had about their fare. It was an actual experience for me, especially after all of the hype my Wife told me over the decades. Usually, after a big span of time, places from our youth let us down. Spanky's is NOT a place like that. I will be sure to make it there on the next trip to Lubbock ... even if my Wife isn't with me. Ciao, Darrell

The service I got was excellent, some of the best I've gotten, very personable. The ambiance was in the mall food court so it was about average. The food though, I got the bacon 3 cheese which had surprisingly fresh ingredients, like the veggies were superior to most sandwich shops like Jimmy Johns or Subway. Fries were slightly above average, and they didn't overpack the ice in the drink, which is a first for most fast foods. The sandwich was a 7/10, fries a 6/10, drink a 8/10. One issue with the genre of food is that the cheese congealed after I took a fry break, but that's the price for the melty cheese. Overall pretty good 10/15 I have the feeling I'll probably get a belly ache in about 30 minutes
