    I love you Teddy B's... This is the kind of place that you shouldn't judge by the looks because the outside and inside can scare you away but just give it a chance and you'll fall in love. Burgers were huge and juicy, totter tots also thick n crunchy! I'm so happy they re opened and honestly the remodeling is nice from the last time I've been here. Now peek at this shiny bun!

    Heard a lot of good stuff about Teddy B's so decided to try it out. I got the bacon cheeseburger combo and it was great. The food was cooked fresh and came out quickly.

    I tried Teddy B's after numerous recommendations from a Facebook group I'm in and it definitely lived up to the hype! The location is attached to a gas station. The inside has a few tables to sit at so it does get full fairly quickly. My only complaint was that the music was a little loud. The food here is delicious! I had a chili dog and fries. The dog was grilled and layered with a good amount of chili and cheese. My daughter got the grilled cheese that had a nicely toasted bread. We'll definitely be back and look forward to trying new items.

    Wanted a burger and found this place on Yelp and decided to try. It is a food truck in a gas station parking lot with a shaded sitting area. I ordered a bunch of burgers for the family and got the Texan. The brisket was alright, but I enjoyed the burger. If you are looking to grab some food on the way home, check this place out.

    Bacon Cheeseburger

    I would say this burger falls within the top 5 best cheeseburgers IVE EVER HAD!! This place feels like a typical hole in the wall, but absolutely lives up to the hype! I decided to get the bacon cheeseburger with the works and tater tots. I added chili and cheese to the tater tots because frankly it's been a rough day. I got back to my home and realized they did forget it, but since I lived close I just went back. I thought they would just give me the chili and cheese in a cup, but they made me a whole new order of tater tots all together!! The service from the staff was absolutely amazing! They have some of the most friendly employees I have seen in food service in a while. Overall, I will be making this a weekly go-to!! Some of the best food i've had since moving to San Antonio!

    Ladies & Gentlemen, gather round & we will introduce you to your new burger joint. We are showcasing "Local v. Chain" restaurants in close proximity to each other & just completed our first 9-minute episode comparing Teddy B's burgers (6392 Babcock Rd San Antonio, TX 78240) to McDonald's (6370 Babcock Rd, San Antonio, TX 78249) right next door, in the adjacent ZIP Code. The ordering experience is friendly & informative at Teddy B.'s versus the cold, clinical & super slow service at McDonald's - over 10 minutes for a Quarter Pounder at Mc-E-D's. At the burger behemoth, they cater to the drive-thru & driver deliveries. Teddy B's has an amazing menu & a cool, surfer-vibe mural that took quite some time & effort to produce - the atmosphere reminds me of a burger joint near the Pacific in South-Southern, So-Cal: laid back, great eats & employees eager to serve you well. We hope you enjoy our video & you appreciate our recommendation! https://youtu.be/NUOygGfU7AU

    Chili Cheese Dog
    Angelica G.

    First impression was thinking it's part of the gas station.. but it's not at all that. It was empty when we entered. We were able to read the menu with so much ease . Huge menu to choose from. We decided on Mushrooms Swiss burger with bacon and tots, as well as a Chili Cheese Hotdog. Everything was made really fresh but didn't take too long. They really didn't have a huge drink option as far as sodas. I loved that it was a juicy huge burger with lots of mushrooms lettuce and cheese just like I like it. My husband ordered the chili cheese dog. Very hardy beef hot dog with plenty of sauce. Love the food was hot and fresh. The only thing I can say is I wish my beef had alittle more seasoning but otherwise it was a very enjoyable lunch. There was music on but not to loud where you couldn't hear each other. Definitely would go back for a burger and going to try corn in a cup

    Macho Combo
    Andrew A.

    Another killer ppace fot a burger. Plenty of options to choose from. Tots are crisp but no where burt. They are great. I had the macho burger which was fabulous. Lots of flavor plenty of egg meat had great flavor. Loved it! Yep need to bringthefamily

    Chorizo Dog
    Marcus G.

    If I could rate higher, I would. They seriously may be the best in town. I'd go so far to say my favorite burger in town. Consistent, clean, fresh. Their hot dogs are also worth it. Honestly- I've never had something regrettable here.

    Teddy B's was delicious!!! customer service was great!! There was go much food on menu to pick from! we will definitely be trying again!

    Bacon Cheeseburger combo

    A small joint with a big menu. A great burger and crispy fries. Very fast and friendly service. I definitely recommend and will be going again to try different items on their menu.

    Mangonada
    Daniel A.

    Teddy B's is located pretty close to where I live and I never knew how much good food was just a drive down the road!! This place is very unassuming being attached to the side of a gas station. The isn't much room to sit down and eat and they've moved all of their dining tables due to Covid so Takeout is the best option. The menu here is crazy extensive. You can buy just about anything here it feels like. The food did take a while (40 min) from when we ordered but was worth the wait. Staff was kind of brisk when I asked them a few questions since it was my first time. Choose the Bristo Burger on sourdough bread with avocado and mushrooms. Yum! Homemade ingredients and you can taste them. The Mangonada was on point, alternating levels of chamoy and mango ice. And not overdone on the amount of chamoy. I'd eat one of these every night if I could. Worth the try!

    They have keto buns!!! But it's hit and miss, i've gone a handful of times where they didn't have…read morethem or times where the bun is extremely small. But they do lettuce wrapped, still not the same though. The service is always great since I have the extra modifications. The ambiance is nice, we are able to hear each other speak even though there are tv's playing. I'm a sucker for their bistro burger and the cucumber cup as a side.

    FIRST TIME VISIT!…read more Woohoo! Been looking for chili cheese fries and happened upon a review for this place boasting fries with a homemade chili so we HAD TO stop in tonight. THE LOCATION: on the very end of a string of businesses in a strip mall that I've never been in before, so that was cool. Lots of parking, that'll never be an issue. And right off the 410. THE MENU: Burgers, dogs, Mexi-style munchies and a variety of frozen dessert-type items like shakes, frozen fruit concoctions and Italian ice. THE STAFF: I wasn't overwhelmed with a warm welcome and smiles, at least from the guys. Lol! They should really work on that. There was a sweet gal who ran out our food orders and she was great. THE FOOD: I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich deluxe with tots and a sweet tea. The grilled chicken was juicy and cooked well and the bun was lovely, slightly sweet and toasted. Overall, the sandwich could've used more flavor, like a creamy bbq spread and cheddar instead of the "Swiss" cheese that tasted more like American cheese. But overall, 7/10. The tots were extra crispy and the guy who took my order didn't take heed to my request for ranch. I was too lazy to get up again so I settled for ketchup. The sweet tea was nicely sweet and fresh, I'll be sipping this in my dreams. The hubby ordered the bacon cheeseburger with chili cheese fries and an Oreo cookie shake. The burger looked good and he ate it quick, so there's that. This guy can EAT so it surprised us both when he slowed down fast after eating that burger. Lol! He kept saying how filling it was, but then he also killed a large shake before the food arrived, so there's that. He ate most of his chili cheese fries, leaving me a few bites to sample. Not bad. I order a Coco Haven frozen dessert to go and omg is this thing delightful! Vanilla ice cream and coconut Italian ice (?) with a blue snow cone-like syrup drizzled throughout. I loved the texture of what I believed to be Italian ice. Smooth and flaky, a perfect icy dessert. OVERALL: decent eatery, the hubby said we can go back (LOL!) Shockerrrrr! But I recommend the staff tries harder to make customers feel welcomed and comfortable. The next visit will be telling.

Yeah, okay, it's convenient, but by the time you pay to park (minimum of four hours, which pissed me off) and then have your tiny, overpriced burger...you gonna be mad. Do yourself a favor and fight for street parking. I walked up to the outside counter Saturday night about 7:20. Never been here. The ladies behind the counter obviously could NOT have cared less. No nice welcome...no pleasantries. Nothing said. I spoke first, asking about seating availability inside (it was chilly), and they were rude - looked at me like I was from outer space and said they didn't know. They said they didn't know in that "yeah, good luck with that...it's Saturday at 7, dumbass" kinda way. How could you not know? And if you truly didn't know, which one of them should have gone to check for me. So I went and checked myself. Turns out: plenty of seating. Returned to the chilly duo and placed my order. Ordered the Wake and Bacon burger. I also ordered a Topo Chico, which was also met with a blank "are you from this planet?" stare. How do you not have Topo Chico or something similar !? The burger was just okay. Tiny, but tasty. Fries were so salty and over-seasoned as to be almost inedible. No one checked on me after bringing me my burger. Not one time. The only reason I gave the third star: neat, dog friendly outside area which would be cool for a group outing. Probably not going back.

    Update to first review below, rating updated from a 3 to a 5 star (drinks & bartender would get 10+…read morestars if we could rate that high): Saturday night: Went back for after dinner drinks at the Downstairs (a "speakeasy" throwback, look up the history of the place to see why). Drinks were AMAZING! Bartender Rob made the best Negroni I've ever had. I asked him to use whatever gin he thought best--result was an artistic smooooooth full-bodied drink. Told him when I was done I'd lick the glass if it wasn't considered so uncouth for a 'mature' lady like myself to do so Hubby's Buffalo Trace bourbon old fashioned was also outstanding. Rob was the bartender last night who did such a great job, and his work was even better tonight. We highly recommend The EsquireTavern for excellent cocktails. We love the long wood bar and high copper ceiling upstairs, but love the intimate speakeasy atmosphere downstairs even more. We'll definitely be back every time we're in San Antonio! First review, Friday night: Drinks were great (Manhattan and Bourbon Old Fashioned). REAL drinks, no complaints at all about those. And the bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Those aspects of the Esquire get 5+ stars from us. But the appetizers were not good, close to inedible. It was about 8:30pm or so, so maybe they were getting ready to close out the kitchen but the chalupitas with chicken tasted like rubber, and no flavor at all. The seafood platter had something in it that was breading with shell inside, but no meat of any kind. We couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. The shrimp was good and the fish was good but those other things... We'll always love the drinks, the long wooden bar, and the ambiance at the Esquire Tavern, but we'll eat somewhere else and come here for before or after dinner drinks. (See update above to this review for when we returned the next night for after dinner drinks.)

It's been a few years since I've been by; so, I was truly looking forward to getting something. I chose The Brat & tots (plain). I was very happy with my choice. The gentleman greeted me immediately. I thought it would take me a minute, but, as I stated, I chose The Brat immediately. I'm a little high strung from my age, so people kinda chuckle. It's cute. I make me smile. They put the perfect amount of mustard on it too! See the photos, but it comes covered with cabbage & crispy fried onions. It is amazing.

I can't remember it, but it's a dia de los muertos skull for the logo, but I love their roots beer, which was my beverage of choice today.

My partner and I went on a Sunday morning just after 11am and there were already people coming in to eat. It's popular for a reason! I've eaten here a few times and had a very consistently good time, but this review will be about my most recent visit. We visited on a rainy day, but luckily we were able to snag one of the inside tables, we ordered at the counter and our orders arrived very quickly. I got the Ratchet dog which is a beef dog with queso, hot Cheetos and fried jalapeños. Dogfather uses quality dogs and buns for all of their gourmet dogs. I found the Ratchet to be meaty, salty with just right amount of spice from the jalapeños. My partner got the Pop it like it's hot, but removed the jalapeños. This was good but lacking a bit of flavor, however she and I both agreed that was on her for taking the jalapeños off the dog. Both dogs were extremely tasty, and we devoured both. I also got an order of curly fries loaded with their chili and cheese. For me, these did not have to go as HARD as they did. The chili they are using at Dogfather is seriously good, with a slight tang and a good amount of spice. It thrills but does not take away from your meal with too much heat. Very tasty. My only feedback is that Dogfather needs a larger space! There's a good size outside seating area, but for times like today when it's raining people need some coverage. They're doing it right and the crowds want to come! As I have stated this is a local favorite. If you live nearby, make it a regular spot. If you live in San Antonio, do yourself a favor and make a trip over at least sometimes. If you like hot dogs you won't go wrong.
