Incredible service and great food. My guests were raving! Would definitely use them again.

We have them cater for our teachers at least once a year and it's everyone's favorite day! The burgers are so fresh and taste amazing! The guys running the truck are so nice too! read more

These guys were at an event at my job. Great burger and very fresh. I hope they come back out again!

Cow Bells came for a huge party we threw at our house. Actually one of the best burgers I've ever had. Daniel is the kindest and most accommodating. Everyone was happy - 10/10 would recommend! So happy I now have a "go to" for party catering!! read more

I ordered the woody harrelson with a beef patty instead of the veggie patty and it tasted so good! The honey mustard on it made the burger especially good. The crinkle cut fries were also very delicious! If you check in on Yelp, you get $1 off. At the time I went they had a special of adding fries as a side for $1 which is worth it! read more

I was looking for something other then a taco truck (nothing against taco trucks) for my 60th birthday celebration event. After reading reviews, I decided to take a chance and try Cow Bells. Daniel did not disappoint. From start to finish, Daniel was responsive in every way. Responding quickly to any request. Everybody raved about the burgers and I had to agree. Everything was excellent including the hot dogs. Little did I know till later that on his way to our house, he had a flat on his trailer but being determined to be here on time, he continued on even so. That is above and beyond excellent customer service. If you are looking for great service, great food, and a friendly attitude - go with Cow Bells. read more

Daniel was amazing to work with. He took care of everything and was so flexible. Wonderful customer service and fantastic burgers and hot dogs! My guests were still talking about how good the food was after the party. Would 100% recommend them for any event! read more

Cow Bells serves and incredible burger! I am such a huge fan! I am going back and forth on giving these guys five stars so read this review like its 4.5! My favorite burger is the Casino El Camino Amarillo burger but these guys are close second! I've only had the Rise and Shine burger and it was incredible! The egg and hamburger patty were cooked perfectly even the bun is perfect. The guy who runs the place is a real gent and I've never met a nicer guy. They have a loyalty program that I'm all about getting into where after you buy so many burgers you get a free one, certainly cant beat that. I cant wait to go back and try every burger on the menu! In a town like Austin its hard to be so good that you make me want to come back and eat the whole menu and Cow Bells does it! If you drive by this place don't pass it up! Go in and give it a shot its totally worth it! read more

This adorable little food trailer is part of a little food trailer park off to the side of the South Shore AMLI. All of the burgers looked delicious and I really wanted mine to taste as good as it looked. I had the Rise n Shine and because I came right before the evening dinner rush, my burger was out in a matter of minutes. I'm not really sure what was off about my burger because the egg was fine and I liked the spicy mayo it had on it, but I think it may have been the beef patty itself just had an odd flavor (I don't think it was bad, it was just a little weird) and the bacon was a little too fatty and not as crispy as I would have liked. So, while not a bad burger experience, it was not a memorably great one. The tater tots and the BBQ ranch are a totally different story! The tater tots were perfectly crisp on the outside and just tender enough on the inside and could stand on their own w/o a dipping sauce; however, the BBQ ranch was a game changer (I put some on my burger as well)! The tots and BBQ ranch were made for each other and should I ever return, I think I will just do a double order of these and call it a day! Daniel, the owner, was very gracious and quick to get my order out and as the crowd picked up, he seemed to be keeping up w/the orders fairly well. Definitely suggest trying this place, especially if in the area or coming off the Boardwalk. Though, note on the little seating area for the entire food trailer park: for some reason there were strong gusts of wind that I think may have been generated by the constant traffic, but half my meal I spent trying to wrangle napkins and basket dressing from flying away! Don't know what that's about or if I was just sitting in the "wind tunnel vortex" seat, but it was a bit offputting after awhile. read more

Ordered the Spare Tire but with a single patty because if I'm going to get a spare tire from eating it like the name suggests, I want it to be a smaller one. Anything that has Bacon and Fried Pickles... Sign me up! Also ordered their sweet potato fries, one of my many food addictions! Burger was great as were the fries. The sweet potato fries were perfect consistency not too soft, not too crispy. No wait and took about 10 minutes to get our food. read more

Burger crew meeting called to order on Friday, June 2, 2017 at 2:30pm (Burger Crew Does Austin 2017). Members in attendance: Angela d., Sumana S., Trevor Y., and Wayne T. Members who are lame: Dennis K. I. Ordering We all ordered the Spare Tire ($10.50) - Double meat burger, dressed with mayo, cheddar cheese, bacon, and fried pickles. Trev and I also got tater tots ($3.25) and 2 Mexican Cokes ($2.25 each). Wayne and Sumana got the housemade cherry lemonade ($2.50 each). II. The burgers The burgers were nicely presented on a tray. Since Trev and I were splitting they cut it in half for us. The bun was nice and gooey and the cheese was wonderfully melty. The patty was cooked well done and very peppery. The bacon was good, and I loved the bites that had the fried pickles in it. However, the flavor was pretty monotone. It needed more acid or a sweet note to balance out the saltiness of the meat and cheese and bacon. I think BBQ sauce or mustard would have been a good addition (not together). III. The Fries/Sides The tots were lightly fried and very good. It comes with BBQ ranch, which was really yummy! IV. Miscellaneous This place is a little food stand in the South Shore Eatery on Riverside Drive. So it is outdoor seating only, but it's nice that they have shade. There's a really good looking churro cart next to it that I was eyeing. The parking lot is pretty small. The owner was the person serving us and he was super nice. Check in on yelp to get $1 off a burger. V. Value We have a new way to measure value. I ask the members how much they would pay for the burger they ate. We would pay anywhere between $10 to $12 for these burgers, which makes these burgers a great value since they were only $10.50. VI. The verdict Burgers were cheesy deliciousness. The ratings: 3.6, 3.6, 4.0, and 4.5 Next burger crew meeting: right after this at P. Terry's! read more

Cow Bells catered my 60th birthday party for about 85 people. The food was amazing! I received nothing but compliments on the food! The menu included, Hamburgers, cheeseburgers and Hotdogs, and the sides were sweet potato fries or tater tots. Everything was fresh and delicious. Daniel was very professional and easy going and very accommodating. The sweet potato fries were a hit! Will use Cowbells again and highly recommend them. read more

Cow Bells - Burgers Near Me

Awesome burger place by South Shore that is especially a perfect snack after kayaking! This food truck's menu got many interesting burgers like blue cheese burgers, but for me, the one that allured me the most was the Rise 'n Shine, which was breakfast-item-inspired burger. The burger tastes as good as it sounds, and I was happy with it! The bacon and the egg combination wasn't a groundbreaking concept, but Cow Bells did a good job delivering an extraordinarily burger with quality ingredients. My only gripe is the price as each burger is around $8-10 each, but hey it's a food truck. I definitely recommend trying Cow Bells if you are in the area! read more

New burger trailer is here in Austin. This place makes a tasty burger and it has a very affordable price for it. The key to this burger is the flavor of the ground beef they serve. It is certainly a thick medium well cooked burger (preferred). It is certainly a greasy burger but the beef certainly sets it apart. You just taste that great seasoning in every bite of the beef, it is a great mixture. It is really some of the best burger seasoning I have had. I added bacon, grilled onions and avocado to mine. Also had several cheese choices, I went with pepper jack. Bacon was thick and crisp. Grilled onions were thin and delicious. It just has a fantastic flavor with their beef. Multiple kinds of cheeses. Also had sweet potato fries. They tasted alright, and got a good portion for $2. I really dig the $3 Japanese style onion rings. Sliders have special buns, and the full size bun is toasted. He also serves a Turkey burger & black bean burger. Cow Bells is parked next to Amli South Shore just before the Lakeshore turn. You can park in the open lot or if full, park on the first floor of the garage. It is a great tasting burger and I will continue to come here. read more

I'm totally a food trailer whore, snob, slut (you name it), and I must say that Cow Bells hits all the right spots. I love that they have something for everyone, even vegans/vegetarians. I enjoy the Woody Harrelson with sweet potato fries, a side of fried pickles & of course the strawberry lemonade. Yes, I know - fried pickles, but it's my one time that I can indulge and not feel guilty for not sticking to my high healthy eating standards. I stuff my belly until my co-worker has to wheel me out, lol. They are that good. The sauces just add that extra something special. Dan, the owner is such a nice person. He goes out of his way to not only offer high quality food, but give superb customer service. He gives you the total Cow Bell experience. There is plenty of space to sit & eat. This is definitely one food trailer that gets my thumbs up. Thanks Cow Bells for scrumptious food. - Ann Marie read more

Daniel is professional, responsive, and easy to work with. He brings the best burgers to you! My party couldn't say enough about his delicious food. And love the truck. More cowbell! read more

One of the best burgers I've had in a long time. The meat is outstanding: its flavor is juicy, and exceptional in quality. Everything is made fresh too. I decided to try the spare tire, which I would have thought would be deathly heavy, but it really wasn't nearly as greasy as I thought it would be. Melty cheese, bacon, fried pickles and 2 patties sound like it'd be really heavy (which it is) and you feel the grease a bit but for bro night, can't beat it. The sides are really good too: I recommend the sweet potato fries or the onion rings (very thickly battered, panko coated chunks of goodness). The corn dogs are ok - for the high quality meat in the burgers, I would have though they'd come out with better quality hot dogs for the mini corn dogs, but small gripe at best. Hop over to the shaved ice trailer after for dessert and call it a night. read more

Cow Bells did an incredible job at catering our 1st Annual Employee Appreciation Picnic. Daniel and his staff were friendly and ready to go the minute everyone started arriving. The burgers were hot and delicious, the toppings were fresh, AND the corn dogs...YUM!!! But beyond just the amazing food, Daniel was so responsive and easy to work with. As the event planner, there's always that fear that something can go wrong, but I can honestly say, there was none of that with Cow Bells. From the moment I reached out to Daniel, to the day of the event, it couldn't have been any easier. If you want to have an event that has good food, friendly people, and is stress free, I highly recommend reaching out to Cow Bells!!! read more

Daniel is a great guy and cooks a solid burger. I recommend the rise and shine, a towering, wickedly good breakfast burger dripping with yolk that hits the spot. Also, fried pickles (need I say more?). read more

We had Daniel and his crew at Cow Bells cater a birthday party for my wife. It could not have been better. They showed up on time, they wore masks and gloves and they made fantastic burgers to order for all of the guests. They were the highlight of the party! If you want your party to be special and memorable, you gotta call Cow Bells! read more

This is a hidden gem if you're craving on the go burgers. I tried this place during lunch after hearing about it through a friend. Ordered the Spare Tire and added an egg. Also had a side of tator tots as well. The dish came out fresh and flavorful. You can definitely taste the patties cooked just right with the enhancement of the fried pickles and egg. The tator tots as well was surprisingly seasoned. I recommend getting their side of bacon ranch dressing. read more

Cow Bells - Spare Tire with Fried Egg - Burgers Near Me

Original review 11/2012 I don't know how this place doesn't have a long line at lunch because it was amazing. I'm not from the area but try to hit up some food trucks when in town. I will be returning to this one. The owner is very friendly and I had my order hand delivered to my car in 5 or 6 minutes. It's your normal burger type truck. You will think this until you sink your teeth into one of the better burgers ive had in my life. I ordered the Rise N Shine burger which has beef burger, ham, bacon fried egg (cooked how you like it), lettuce, tomato, and I'm sure other wonderful things I'm leaving off. It was just a great burger, cooked perfectly so that it was still juicy yet not greasy. I added a Mexican Coke (those things are the best) and it was like $9.50. Well worth the cost for such a flavorful meal with high quality, fresh ingredients. Check them out! As far as food truck burgers go, this is the best I've had so they get 5 stars based on that. Update 7/30/13 Ate here for the second time since I am in town for work. Had the MMA and added a fried egg. This was easily one of the top 10 burgers I have ever had. Got it super fast too. It was a great experience just like before. read more

This place really blew me away. I've seen the rave reviews, but I'm overwhelmed by the number of food trucks in Austin so it's tough to be impressed by any one of them these days. Without being too descriptive, I'm going to break it down to my favorite parts. First and most important, the food. I got a double patty burger with bacon and cheese. Unless I'm getting a veggie burger, I generally shy away from any toppings other than meat, cheese, and maybe a little ketchup. With this setup, the fresh and well seasoned burger really popped. There's a presence of garlic that complemented the other seasoning very well. As important as the meat, the bun knocked it out of the park. It's soft and buttery in a way that adds to the burger without being a distraction. The tots were tasty, but were pretty standard tots. The other thing that really impressed me about this place was how nice the owner was. He asked our opinions of the burger and genuinely seemed curious about how his burgers matched up with others in the area and how he could improve. He answered some questions we had and overall was a pleasant chap. Customer service always goes a long way in my book. This burger place is a pretty unassuming food truck in a large parking lot but packed a big punch for what I expected. Be sure to get a punch card and check in on yelp to save a buck on your order. read more

I was impressed with this place. Being it was a chilly cold day, the food trucks I was hoping to go weren't open, so I ended up here, at a weird time too, 3pm. Anyway, order, get the food and tots, get back to my place, the burger is pretty good, seasoned well, but for me, too small of a patty. But people argue over that all the time. The winner of this meal, the tots. Wow, delicious. Yeah, it's not hard to mess up tots, but i've had some great and terrible tots. These fall on the list of being some of the better tots i've ever had. Delicious, go even if it's just for the tots. read more

Entire meal was five stars. I got the spare tire with homemade lemonade and fries. The burger was easy to handle, filling, and tasted as though it was the best back yard BBQ I have ever tasted. I don't know if I could make one better. The buns were perfectly buttered and toasted giving it the structure to hold both patties. The lemonade was perfect as well. I am usually anticipating a really sweet and tart pink lemonade and this one had just the right amount of the two. I must add the BBQ ranch on the side made the seasoned fried so savory. read more

I found this place Yelp and where else would I go for my food reviews. I really enjoyed my burger here. I even ordered the fried pickles. We got here right when it opened at 11:30am. I can honestly say I was amazed that they had my burger and my son's ready with 12 minutes. I also brought my supervisor and one our guys to eat with us. Definitely a great burger spot to have a burger! The guy was friendly and fast. The prices pretty reasonable too. Definitely check this place out. read more

Good job. Only thing to do. Make the Most Awesome Burger. Thank You. When you live on Riverside. Good is far and between. Cow Bells resided at AMLI. Years ago. They moved up the street. They have competition. Both Good. read more

Cow bell was better then what I was expecting. There was no long wait to order. Food was hot and made fresh. I ordered the rise and shine. Beef burger with a over Easy Egg and 2 strips of thick cut bacon. So juicy, was a great burger for my empty stomach. The 4 star is because they charge for French fries and price. However, I would come back again. The guy who took our order was nice and very curtious. Good food and good service. read more

Cow Bells - Archetype Burgers with bacon & cheese! Paired with tater tots, fries, and ranch BBQ sauce - Burgers Near Me

Cow Bells is doing a good thing - even if I did get egg yolk all over my shirt! They are located on east Riverside in the little food truck park on the north side of the road not too far from I35. There are actually about 4 trailers there with a nice place to sit down with covered patio seating and lighting throughout. I am a fan of the park and Cow Bells! There are quite a few options on the menu and my first visit I stopped in for lunch to find the turkey burger on was special. It probably isn't something I would normally order, but it sounded good and since it was on special I got it. The description says, "Turkey burger dressed with basil mayo, dried cranberries, lettuce and tomato. Served on a whole-wheat bun." I love dried cranberries! I actually really liked it, so much in fact I brought my husband back to try Cow Bells within the next couple of days. This visit I got the Rise and Shine Burger. My husband and I both got it and shared a basket of tater tots The burgers were both gorgeous when they came out. I loved the colors of everything. I put everything together and then on my first bite it was so good and then all of sudden - plop! Egg yolk down the front of my shirt :( ... oh well it was my fault ... I really didn't care too much because what was in my mouth was great! Plus egg yolk comes out in the wash easy! I also loved the seasoning he is using on the tater tots and fries - both were great too! FYI - he has a punch card where you eat 12 burgers you can get a free one and side of your choice for free! Not a bad deal at all! With all the burgers places in town I would definitely say there is some competition in Austin and Cow Bells is here to compete with the best of them! If you haven't been here yet I would definitely recommend checking out the little yellow happy face trailer on Riverside. read more

Cow Bells. I have some sort of mental block, and keep read this as "cow balls," and thinking of cow balls, and dreaming of cow balls, and wish this place was called cow balls. Rocky mountain oysters. Bulls balls. Truck nutz. Truck balls. Those weird plastic balls that hang from redneck trucks. Big boy balls. "ALL Novelty Testicles Sets Made To Swing." No, this is not that at all. This is a burger trailer. Remember, way back when, east riverside was scary? It's changing. Like super fast. There is a little food trailer park. And an Amli. And other nice shit. Okay. So, I went today. I had the Woody Harrelson, minus the honey mustard, but add spicy mustard (so I could make it vegan). Ah. And sweet potato fries. It was good, but just that. Good. The veggies were fresh and crisp, the wheat bun was cute, but the vegan patty was lacking something. I kept trying to put my finger on it, but finally decided it didn't have that homemade touch. The owner, Daniel, and I spoke about it, and a homemade vegan patty is in the works. I was going with three stars, but that extra star comes from the owner's passion and interest in catering to the vegan crowd. It really was great. I'm keeping this place on my radar, because I absolutely believe it will be great in no time. With that homemade touch. And I'll be back. As long as I can quit calling it Cow Balls. read more

Great experience today at Cow Bells. I've had this place bookmarked on Yelp for over two years. Damn glad I finally made it and can't wait to go back. A burger is a hell of a sandwich. So many things can go wrong or right depending on quality, add-ons, condiments, cooking style and seasoning. This burger is love between two buns. I tried a classic cheese burger and will eventually try them all. Definitely passed the love of burgers test today. I don't know what the ingredients of the seasoning are, but I could still smell it on my fingers when I left. I don't think I'll wash my hands until bed time. Just Dreamy. read more

Omgggg this is my new favorite burger joint in Austin! I had the Spare Tire which was AWESOME. The fried pickle was a geniussss bonus to it! You made this pregnant woman very HAPPY!

Cow Bells - I'm in love with this place only after 1st try! I got the Spare Tire, The fried pickle= genius bonus! AND the cherry lemonade was the BEST! - Burgers Near Me

I gotta be honest. It's over priced and underwhelming. Two sodas and two burgers for $21+tip. I was expecting more. The seasoning in the meat is just okay. I've walked by this truck a half dozen times in the last month, to get churros. If it hadn't been for the monthly burger meeting I likely wouldn't have ever tried them. Nothing screams tell everyone what they are missing. It's a burger truck, where everything extra is extra cost. So a burger, tots and a drink came to a whopping $15. Scratch made burgers. Fresh produce. Basil mayonnaise. On fresh buns. With crispy, sweet pickles. Not likely to return. read more

I have a fever and the only prescription is......more Cow Bells! Fresh and tasty burgers. While I didn't have the beef, I had the veggie burger "Woody Harrelson" - Black bean burger dressed with honey mustard, avocado, lettuce, tomato, pickle and onion. Served on a whole-wheat bun. I had it with sweet potato fries which taste good with BBQ ranch sauce. Yes there is a wait. If you didn't want a wait then just go to some fast food restaurant where you Grade F quality. Here you get the food nice and fresh. You can even text your order ahead of time if you don't have time to wait. I don't know if I have any guts to try the Spare Tire burger. If I did, I'd have to eat it a couple days and run a marathon to burn it off. And then there's fried egg on your burger...maybe I would try it but I'm pretty sure it's good too. I'm coming back with or without a fever. read more

FIVE STARS! Better than Hop Daddy, smash burger, wholly cow, even counter cafe and yes... even better than shake shack (NYC). This comes close.. really close to the Black Label burger (made out of dry aged prime ribeye) at Minetta tavern as far as enjoyment is concerned. Plus, the price is unreal! Evan was super nice too and explained their process of how the patty was super delicious and made some recommendations for our next visit. I love this place already! Bring you a 6pack and enjoy the outdoor seating. I had the rise n shine burger - perfect seasoning, good buns, and very very aromatic! Not sure what they did... but this burger smelled really good! This trailer will get busy eventually... give it a shot soon! Bottom line: i dont think there's a better burger place in Austin right now. read more
