    Three soft tacos.  Priced reasonable.
    David B.

    I'm ashamed to say that I have lived in Anna for five years and never made my way out to Westmintser that lies on the Anna border, much less Gar Hole. Boy, I didn't know what I was missing out on! I don't care for loud good music or large crowds (which Gar Hole is famous for) so I opted to go here on an early quiet Sunday morning when I knew it would not be busy. Gar Hole reminds me of the Texas I used to know. Very Texas small town feel. Very friendly staff, Texas pride everywhere and just an overall comfortable old school welcoming feeling. As I walked through the entrance doors, I was immediately greeted and welcomed by a gentleman in a t-shirt and shorts and a straw hat (whom I assumed was the owner as I later watched him checking on his staff and tending to obvious other frequent customers...a very polite owner/operator in t-shirts and shorts greeting customers on a Sunday morning is a very good sign in my book!). I was greeted at the bar by a very friendly and kind soul (Sorry I can't recall her name). I ordered two drinks (not at the same time!). They were made very well and generous with the pour. I placed an order for two taco orders to go. They were made very fresh and priced quite reasonably. Taste was spot-on! Overall, this place has it all. History, service, food quality and Texas Charm. (This place has a lot of interesting history. Look at other reviews or Google for more details.) I'm so glad I came here. I hope to frequent more often. The overpriced and lame big chain stuff popping up in and around Anna is quite frankly, embarrassing. This spot is a solid 6. But *yelp will only allow me 5!

    All I can saw is this place is a destination!!! A must visit destination! The food is awesome, the history and story the owner tells is amazing. Please as to talk to owner about how he named the bar and it's history with Bonnie and Clyde and movies it's been in. As for burgers, 10/10 and Jalapeño fries... 20/10! They are sliced fried jalapeños with ranch dressing..... amazing. Live music, great food, awesome service. This is a hidden gem in todays world.

    Duke with cheddar and tots for side.

    Found this unique biker watering hole based on the 4.8 score as we were in the area and gave it a try. Ordering is done at the bar and the food is brought out to your table. There are 3 different seating areas, we opted for inside for the a/c. Ordered chips & queso, which also came with salsa. I thought the chips were hard (borderline stale) but the queso was better than standard restaurant processed cheese dip. We both got the burgers. My double was cooked better than her single (which was well done with burnt edges) and was tasty. I upgraded to tots which were cooked perfectly to my well done request. There were minor pricing anomalies/error causing some irritation/confusion as their system nickels & dimes for adding cheese or tots. Ended up paying almost $50 for two with zero alcohol, so very pricey for what you get. Interesting history, location, friendly staff and owner...but we won't be back.

    This place is outstanding. Great setup with a really cool bar and a nice patio as well. Solid live music acts rotate through on a regular basis. Most of all, the burger is one of the best burgers I've had, hands down. It's a simple, basic burger, but one of the best nonetheless.

    Popped in for a drink;…read more Ambience is top notch - very modern cool look. Well stocked bar lots of selections and beers on tap. Menu looks very very impressive and service was exceptional- will return for a full meal.

    I don't know what I was thinking going back to Heyday a second time. The first visit was bad…read moreenough, but apparently they took that as a challenge and said, "Hold my lukewarm beer." The hamburgers? Frozen meat patties that tasted like they'd been excavated from the back of a 2019 freezer. My fish and chips came with fish that smelled like it had been on a week-long bender in a dumpster behind the pier. And the lobster ravioli? Let's just say the only thing "lobster" about it was the price tag. The pasta was sad, the filling was suspicious, and the whole thing felt like a culinary war crime. But hey, at least the ambience is great! Beautiful lighting, nice decor, perfect for pretending you're having a fancy night out... while quietly plotting your escape to literally any other restaurant. Oh, and don't worry about the shortcuts -- when they're done disappointing your taste buds, they'll hit you with a credit card fee for the privilege. Nothing says "we care about your experience" like charging you extra to leave poorer and hungrier than when you arrived. Save your money, your dignity, and your stomach. Go somewhere else to eat. Anywhere else. Even a gas station hot dog would've been an upgrade.
