This was a great find in Lockhart when not craving BBQ from one of the well-known BBQ spots. The service is top notch. Friendly and hospitable. It's a small dive bar with indoor and outdoor seating. They have a good variety of beers on tap and bottles, I think. I only had the ones on tap. The food is great. We had the fried okra (whole pieces) and onion rings, which are delish. Not salty and the batter does not fall off, which is a plus. We also ordered the patty melt, bahn mi burger and boneless wings. We enjoyed them all. Good portions and flavorful. This is our go to in Lockhart when not in a BBQ state of mind. read more

Load Off Fanny's - Menu - Chicken Wings Near Me - Lockhart, Texas

I can't believe I've never reviewed this place. You literally can't go wrong. I could probably make a meal off of just their appetizers. I've literally never had fried mushrooms at a restaurant that were Portabella. These are to die for but the star of the appetizer menu to me are the fried pickled okra. they are coated in a perfect , cornmeal batter and served with homemade ranch dressing. Now onto the main courses. The burgers are all phenomenal. I have tried three or four of them no matter which one you get, order it Bob's way, which comes with fried onion strings. I usually can't finish a whole burger, but here I make myself finish the burger. No morsel is wasted. I recently tried one of their hotdogs, and I can say it won't be my last. Last but not least, their sides with the burgers cannot be beat. I know it sounds weird to say, but I am not much of a french fry person. Here I want to eat all of them. Their onion rings are equally delicious and their sweet potato chips are unlike anything I've ever gotten of the sweet potato family. Everything is perfectly fried and everything goes good with their homemade ranch. Our girl Wimpy works here and provides the best service to everyone who enters some of us even get a hug when we leave read more

We came down from Austin to see a friend play and decided to eat dinner before he started. I had the jalapeno popper burger. Yow, that was good stuff. We were a pretty big crowd in a fairly empty bar. I'd say the bartender handled himself very well. The area outside is intimate for listening to music, but the flies from Smitty's can get a little thick on the rim of your pint glass. Bring a coaster outside to cover your glass and all will be fine. read more

The wings were delicious and the service was excellent. We were greeted as soon as we arrived and the food was delivered quickly. Would definitely return if in the area again. read more

This is the third time I've been here so that says something. I love the vibe of this place. If you're looking for something that encapsulates small Texas town, Load off is where it's at. Come on the weekends and you'll be in for a treat with wonderful live music. And the food is fantastic! The wings are fantastic and the burgers are cooked perfectly. Came in today because this is where my mom wanted to come for her birthday. We were fortunate to have Dixie as our server and she was amazing. Made sure our cups were always full and our food was to our liking. She is a testament to how seriously their management takes customer service. read more

things you have to try: Barbs Burger BOBS WAY! THE QUESO - get some to-go they have great reheatable containers for it! Fried Okra/fried mushrooms/onion rings are amazing Buffalo Blue Burger (request hot buffalo) the caluflower wings (vegan options - hatch green chili is my fave.) WINGS, DUH! You can ask for extra crispy, flats or drums only, get the ranch and the blue cheese made in-house. Try the sriracha pineapple sauce or hot with lemon pepper sprinkle, yum! There's a lunch special on Wednesdays! Great selection of beers and an awesome staff. Always great music on Sundays 1-3PM with Ethan Ford and a special guest. read more

Always good food and nice folks and barbs karaoke night is a blast. I love the salads wedge is my favorite and burgers are killer.

The service was outstanding! We ordered takeout after running errands. We ordered the Mushroom Swiss burger and the Buffalo Blue burger along with onion rings and a small wedge to share. Oh my the wedge and onion rings were soo good with all the fixins and the Buffalo Blue was spectacular! We will definitely be coming back! read more

Best wings and service in town! The burgers are fantastic too! They have a great beer selection. The salads are always fresh. They also have great vegetarian options! read more

I really thought I was going to like this place. They have a huge pride flag indicating this is a safe place. My server was quick to take my order TO GO and bring my drink. She's on her own so that's great there. There were two tables when I came in. However it's been well over 30 minutes and still no food. I ordered a hot dog and a burger to go. Ideally I should have been able to get my food and eat in that time. Of course, I've already paid so I can't get up and leave. When I asked, I was told that orders had come in before me. Well the 6 top has eaten and are just hanging out. No other food has come out of the kitchen. Okay now to the food. My mom ordered a Fanny's Original Burger with sweet potato chips. The burger was huge but very good. The chips were great. I ordered a loaded dog. It was interesting but tasty. The bacon was ground (?) in small bits and the dog split and grilled. I loved the food. But it was an order to go and quite messy to eat. No napkins or plastic ware was offered. Trying to find a knife and a fork in the rehab home was difficult. Dining in... seems like a good place unless you're in a hurry. Dining out... avoid unless you're going to your house. read more

let me start by saying load off Fannys is the first establishment I have been in that I have felt a sense of family when i stepped into. I had the pleasure of meeting the owners, which are the nicest individuals I have met in a good while. Their wings are on point, and if you're looking for a young, fun atmosphere this is the place for you. I would recommend load off fannys to anyone! read more

Fanny's is a great spot for socializing, having GREAT, hand-pressed, burgers and a beer. There's an outdoor area in the back with plenty of room and karaoke on Thursdays and live music on Fridays. The burgers are FANTASTIC, and then there's that wedge salad....oh my YUMMY! I like this place. I'll be back. read more

Wanted to love it. Live music was good. Service was friendly, but couldn't get what we ordered. Maybe new people working or something. Food was average. read more

The burgers and wings are really good. If you are vegetarian or vegan they have options for that as well. A good draft beer selection and the service is the best. On Thursdays they have Karaoke on the back patio which is always a lot of fun. Give it a try! read more

Really cool dive bar in Lockhart, TX. Nice draft selection, some indoor seating but a very large outdoor area. Hotdogs and burgers on the menu. Worth a stop if you're in town. Friendly bartender!!! read more

Thank you for your hospitality to my family. Your spot was just the respite we needed from a long days trip and mishaps. Yelp did not disappoint as usual. We went for your juicy burgers and they definitely did not disappoint. No fake meat here for the original and jalapeño cream cheese! Crispy fries, plain or loaded were perfectly salted. The fried portobello mushrooms were meaty and had the perfect amount of crispy batter crunch. Kids appreciated the silly scenery with the Mr. Bones table. read more

The food was good (hotdog) but how can you really screw up a hot dog? The owner was there and was in a really negative mood which made things super awkward. The fried okra was really weird and we couldn't finish it because it wasn't edible. I wish this place had a liquor license because they're one of the only places downtown with an outdoor courtyard like area. read more

Loaded Dog was great! Loaded fries great! Service great! Good music... funky vibe, off the beaten path!

Been coming here often, food is always great... Owner if you are reading this, please address your bartender/waitress. Forgot her name but whoever you had 02/17 around 8pm. Had to wait 25mins just to place an order after I had to request to be attended too. Was never attended too after receiving our food. SERVICE SUCKED to say the least. Long story short read more

Fist time in... really good food and nice people! Highly recommended! Definitely will return.

Stopped by for the first time today on a whim because I needed somewhere to eat dinner with vegetarian options while on the way to Port o Connor with the family. Every single thing we ordered was phenomenal. Like SO good. The service was amazing and the atmosphere was lovely. We will definitely be back. 10/10 recommend. read more

Load Off Fanny's - Blanco queso devowered! - Chicken Wings Near Me - Lockhart, Texas

This is my second trip here and I have to admit that for the price, it is not worth it. I ordered my food and although my entire table heard me order, they did not get it. I've been sitting here with an empty spot in front of me for a few minutes with nobody asking if I needed anything. I will not be returning. The rest of my family also ordered boneless, but got bone in wings. The only reason I gave 2 stars is because they did like the wings. read more

Lockhart has a lock on my heart.. (has this been done before?) Load Off Fanny's is a charming nod to the song The Weight by The Band. Seriously their name is the least Google-able name on the internet. Why didn't they plan for that? Oh, yeah, because it was the 60s. You may think I'm getting off track (ha, another song reference), but I'm not. This place makes you wanna sing and take a load off (3 and 4) at the same time. LOF, as I've affectionately abbreviated it as, is the quintessential wing bar in Downtown Lockhart. If you have tired of BBQ try mixing it up here. They have tons of wing options and a few things to keep the menu popping. Like Jalapaño poppers. These aren't your typical breaded fare, these are fresh, filled with cream cheese, and wrapped in a slice of bacon poppers. I make them at home a lot, but it was nice to see them on a menu! The wings are the reason you come here, though. The flavors are outrageous. We had the garlic parmesan, hatch chile, and traditional buffalo. All three were great and totally different. The garlic was made with fresh, chunky garlic. You often see powdered garlic and parm on wings, but not here. The hatch was interesting, too. They didn't have much heat (if any), but the creaminess of the sauce was the perfect contrast to the buffalo. Come take a load off here.. whatever your name might be. read more

We were driving through Lockhart and just had the best lunch at Load Off Fanny's. My husband had the Loaded Dog and said it was the best hot dog he'd ever had! Our server, Dixie suggested I order my burger the same way, and wow!!!! Not on the menu, but I highly recommend "The Dixie Burger"....you won't be disappointed. How can you go wrong with a burger with Queso Blanco, Bacon and Grilled Jalapeño?? read more

It's not always easy to find good vegetarian options, but this place delivered! They had cauliflower wing options and any sandwich could be substituted with either a black bean burger or a grilled portabella. I had a portabella patty melt and sweet potato chips and they were amazing! The two waitresses were fantastic and very personable. Highly recommend this joint!! read more

Load Off Fanny's - Patty melt with portabella mushroom and sweet potato chips - Chicken Wings Near Me - Lockhart, Texas

We were so stoked to try this place when it opened! Lockhart was SORELY in need of a good hot wing place. My boyfriend ordered the 10-piece wings with HOT buffalo sauce and I got the 10-piece cauliflower with traditional buffalo sauce. Both sauces were very good- the hot sauce was a bit thicker. And both were messy so we were grateful for the wetwipes and the roll of paper towels on our table. The wings were SUPER meaty and very well-cooked! I have never seen bone-in wings with so much meat on them. The cauliflower was well-cooked and totally soaked up all the buffalo saucy goodness. My boyfriend was sweating and crying from the hot sauce, but that's how he likes it. I don't know what the dipping sauce was that came with the sweet potato fries, but it was out of this world. Can't wait to come back again and try more items from the menu! The on-draft beer was cold and refreshing and the service was fast. Five stars! read more

I'm a frequent flyer here as I absolutely love the black bean burger plate. It isn't a "excuse me, we have something on the menu for vegetarian" kind of thing. It's a knock out, and worth a rerun. Always a pleasant atmosphere with great folks. It's my local favorite. read more

Jessica is an excellent host, bartender, waitress always makes us feel welcome. The A/C was going out but luckily it was at night.
