    The counter where you order and the menu is above. There's a variety of desserts to the right in a cold refrigerated  case.
    Regina-Marie T.

    After pickleball couldn't decide where to eat but I knew I wanted a burger. Mark's outing was the perfect place with just the right amount of food. Price wise it's about average for lunch $9 to $12. We got there at 12:30 not so crowded but toward 1 o'clock more people walked into the restaurant.. The restaurant has good lighting and it's welcoming. The staff was very attentive as soon as we walked up to the counter to order. Theres soft music playing. Also, there's a good amount of seats comfortable enough. Mark's outing gives a home visit meal type of place.

    If you're a fan of mouthwatering burgers; this is your place!! Mark's Outing serves up great burgers that are put together very well. The burgers are juicy and flavorful. The Heisman offers bacon, avocado and melty cheese on the Heisman burger that ties it all together beautifully. The buns are fresh and hold up well without getting soggy; and let's not forget the tots--crispy and golden, making them the perfect sidekick to any burger you order. The friendly service and celebratory environment make it fun place. Photos are lined throughout the restaurant of those that take on 'The Lineman'; which is a 2lb burger with all the fixings. Having Kool-Aid as an option is the cherry on top. Highly recommend for any burger lover!

    Banana pudding
    Jeremy T.

    This is a decent sized burger place that you can't miss as you're driving down Commerce from Downtown. As you walk in, there are hundreds of photos of customers eating the 2lb burger, all posted on the walls. I took my colleague here to try the burger on a recent work trip. As other reviewers mention, there is the soda fountain, iced tea dispensers, lemonade, and also 2 flavors of Kool Aid. They also have a cold case at the register where they keep their desserts. Of course i had to try Mama Joyce's banana pudding. I ordered the linebacker burger, 1 lb, with everything, and I also had to try their beans and the dessert. Service was very friendly right from the beginning as some of the servers and owners are African American and treat you like family. The restrooms are not all that obvious and are kind of hiding, so just keep walking around until you find them through a white door. My burger came out from the kitchen much later than 3 other customers orders who came in after me, but I can understand it takes a while to cook a thick patty. They did forget to bring both my colleagues and my dessert as they have a helper in the kitchen delivering the burgers, different from the person taking your order. How did the burger taste? Well, mine was large and very attractive and reminiscent of a typical San Antonio burger with cheddar cheese flowing everywhere. At 1 lb, the patty easily extends past the bun on all sides. I wasn't a big fan of the bun, although it held the sandwich together well. The patty is not seasoned all that much, but has a faint taste of worchestershire sauce. The beans were not that great, as I thought there were more salty than anything. There are supposedly "famous". I guess they haven't tried Lupe Tortilla's beans before as I think those are way more addicting. I was also not impressed with the banana pudding, it was your standard Nila wafers, pudding mix and sliced bananas. Nothing seemed to be homemade about it....just put together. My colleague was also pretty critical of his kiddie size burger. He only ordered a 1/4 lb basic burger and thought it tasted like a burger he wouldn't drive out of his way for by any means. He did seem to like his peach cobbler, though.

    1/4 lb Mushroom burger with onion rings & BBQ wings.
    Anna Marie S.

    Had the 1/4 lb mushroom burger with onion rings and an order of BBQ chicken wings. Dessert was chocolate cake. Food was made quickly, served nice and hot.

    1 lb burger
    Christy G.

    Delicious. Owner is always friendly and smiling. Known for burgers. These are juicy and they taste great. I like the photos on the ways of everyone trying the 2lb burger. The Mushroom Swiss was amazing. My husband got the 1 lb burger and it was huge. It was delicious as well. I liked the grape koolaid. Great music playing in the back ground as well. Love it.

    Jalapeno Cheese Burger with Tater Tots
    William B.

    The fresh bread on the buns and the quality beat created to order for the jalapeno cheeseburger made it outstanding. A slight taste of onion in the tater tots that were cooked well done was also pleasant. Parking is to the side of the restaurant although there is a parking available for free alongside of Commerce Street. This is a mom and pop kind of restaurant with a friendly staff and good quality food at reasonable prices. The atmosphere in the interior is full of photographs of customers with big hamburgers. There is hardly an inch left uncovered without photos which can be kind of fun. You pay first at the cashier then you are seated anywhere you want that's available and food is brought to your table. So does an iced tea are available at a soda fountain on your own. There were plenty of local people eating at the restaurant and almost no tourists because this is kind of out of the way from the nearby tourist areas in downtown San Antonio.

    1/2 pound bacon burger
    Andrew C.

    This is by far the best burger I've had in along time and it's was hot! The music was great and the service was fast. My family and I are definitely coming back to this joint!

    Best onion rings.

    Heading to the Spurs game, trying to figure out what to eat, my wife and I landed on Mark's Outing. Never been here before, but I heard good things. Turned out this place was the best call I made all day. Super friendly staff. The burger was thick and juicy. The onion rings were huge and crispy. No doubt this will be a pregame ritual from now on.

    jalapeño burger
    Sumeeth V.

    kid loved the cheeseburger here comes off as huge portions but the 1/4 oz was surprisingly light especially when shared chicken sandwich was great strawberry cake a little bready but still good came here twice on our short visit and it was worth it each time

    My husband and son could literally eat a burger on the daily-so we drove downtown- parking wasn't bad at all and as far as safety, I didn't feel the least bit unsafe especially during the day. This is counter service- order and they will bring it to your table. I ordered a regular cheeseburger and my boys ordered the heisman. The buns were soft and slightly sweet but the star of the show was the meat patty- full of flavor and just, well, tasty. Do yourself a favor if you are a burger fan and check this place out!

    Breakfast Burger
    Alan O.

    Plenty of parking. It has sort of a retro feel on the inside. There are photos of the hungry folks who ate the 2lb burger! I could barely finish the 1lb burger. The staff made some great recommendations since it was our first time eating here. The burger was bigger than the bun, and I had to cut it in half to eat it. I'm not a messy eater, so that's why I cut it in half. It was thick and juicy, like a good burger should be! I'll definitely be back. The red kool-aid is a must-have! Sweet, sweet, sweet, and good, like I remember as a kid. I could chill in here all day!

We had the pretzel (4 short pretzel sticks), nachos, the smash burger and a grilled cheese sandwich for our Grand Daughter. Service was quick initially but they weren't great on refilling drinks. Food was all good and a reasonable value for the venue. I'd get the burger and nachos again. They are kid friendly during the day (it might be a different crowd at night), it is clean and not too noisy. Hopefully, people will find it and enjoy their food. I believe they are part of the Goode Co company out of Houston and sell their Pecan Pies as well.

For entrees my husband got the Chicken Fried Steak with loaded mashed potatoes and I ordered the fried gulf shrimp with fries. My husband really enjoyed his entree and commented it was probably the best Chicken fried steak he's had in town. My food was good too but since I've never been here I didn't realize their fries were potato wedges? Super thick, kinda moist, and just wasn't what I pictured when I ordered fries. Not the end of the world though, I'd still say the food overall was great. I'd definitely come back and eat on the patio, I'm glad I finally got to go here after all these years!

Those thin, greasy, flattop-smacked patties with the crispy edges and buns soaked in all that beef juice? Man, that's what raised me. Then life hit, moved to Houston, and I was posted up right by Lankford Grocery--hitting that spot constant for their juicy, no-bullshit hand-patted burgers that hit the same old-school greasy spoon vibe. Houston kept me fed, but I always felt like something was missing. Moved to San Antonio and bro... I was LOST. Wandering around like a damn fool chasing that perfect hot-griddle smash burger that reminded me of home but didn't suck. Everything was either too fancy or straight-up mid. All the other spots in SA are just dry humpers, bro--teasing you with a bun rub but no real satisfaction. To get that full burger penetration, the juicy deep-dive you actually crave, you gotta pull up to Pumpers. This place is like the engineered lab version for us adults who grew up on Dirty's and Lankford. They took everything we loved about those classic greasy spoons--the loose, coarse, fatty beef balls smashed thin on that screaming hot griddle for the crispy lacy edges, the cheese melting into every crevice, that potato/milk bun sopping up all the grease and juices without falling apart--and turned it into straight PERFECTION. Juicy as hell, seasoned perfect, that char... it's hot ass shit. The vibes are adult (21+ after 9, cheeky as hell), the fries slap, and every bite takes me back but better. No more searching, I found my spot. Only knock? They need to up their beer game heavy. It'd be straight fire if they featured real Texas beers on tap instead of those national queers. Everything else though? Pumpers got me feeling like a kid again but with grown-man money and zero regrets. If you're from that same bloodline of Texas flattop burgers, stop what you're doing and get here. Best I've had in years, hands down. 10/10, will be a regular till they kick me out. (Pro tip: Get the classic with extra cheese and thank me later.) I love the atmosphere, but I would not stay and eat my burger there because the beers suck. There's not a single Texas beer from a small Independent Brewer, and that sacrilegious in my opinion. Also the fact that they have no hot peppers that aren't candy coated, glazed, bullshit, but they're still a 10 out of 10 even though the lettuce should be shredded like my abs.
