The J and P Bar & Grill - Panther burger with onion rings. - New American Near Me - Comstock, Texas

This place is 7 hours from my house and I would totally make the drive there and back for a meal. I've had their burger and their steak fingers. Each is the best I've ever had. read more

Stopped in traveling to Terlingua. I have to say what a great surprise. We were just hoping for any kind of bite, but instead found a truly awesome burger joint. Then my buddy surprised me by ordering fried okra. We both had Devils burgers with tots and onion rings plus the okra. Everything was excellent read more

Went there twice last week. Partly because that was the only restaurant open. They do make a good burger and sweet potato fries. The grilled chicken devil burger was also good. Waitress on Thursday was great. read more

Staff was friendly and engaging. You can certainly tell the burgers are handmade and the flavors were really good. I liked the fries as well. I had the jalapeno burger which was tasty but not hot. I recommend the short drive to Comstock to check out J&P's. read more

The J and P Bar & Grill - Jalapeno cheese burger - New American Near Me - Comstock, Texas

Best burger I have ever had! I would drive 6 hours just to eat there again. If you stop in get the Jalapeno burger, the jalapeno mayo is the best thing ever. read more

Read the reviews and the food did not disappoint. Cheeseburger was delicious with the jalapeno cilantro mayo. Husband had the patty melt and enjoyed. My onions rings were huge and well seasoned. Our server was attentive and very friendly. Highly recommend if you are the mood for a good burger and some nice hospitality. read more

Driving to or from Big Bend on US90, this place deserves a stop. Small but great food.

Another stop on our road trip to SW Texas. I heard about this place on a TV show so I bookmarked it on Yelp long ago. Don't remember what show, maybe The Daytripper on PBS. Burger was great... loved the jalapeño Mayo and ciabatta bun. The fresh thinly cut fries were also fantastic. Service was good. Although a bit relaxed. When the ladies were not busy, they were sitting down at another table with their toddler. Defiantly a family business here. What we didn't like was the smell of cigarette smoke walking into this restaurant aka bar. Now no one was smoking when we arrived right at 11am when they opened, and there were not ashtrays on tables... but it is a bar so we assume smoking does happen in this rural establishment. We actually did assume is was a possibility with bar being in the name, and yep it hits you when you walk in. Would I go back, yep to eat another tasty burger! read more

The J and P Bar & Grill - Great burger, buns and fries! - New American Near Me - Comstock, Texas

Fresh delicious food... every time! Definitely worth the stop if you're driving thru. Or the drive from a nearby city.

Great service and wonderful burgers at good prices! Ingredients were fresh. One of the best burgers I have ever had.

Crossing another one off the Bucket List! I've been wanting a burger for a while now (think weeks) and not just any old burger, I don't spend my money on fast food burgers. Having travelled on HWY 90 and exploring the best parts of Texas I knew I wanted to make a stop at J & P and finally did on a bright, sunny Saturday afternoon. Yes, it's definitely a dive which is wonderful in Comstock! If you're driving the posted speed limit and not familiar with the area you'll drive right by J & P. No flashy neon signs to get your attention, so turn the radio down and look for it. I walked in and the lone waitress said I could seat myself. The menu has something for everyone, burgers, salads and a few local favorite Mexican options. I got the Devil's Burger with fries and a kids size sweet tea. The Devil's burger was really good, with smoked jalapeno, melted pepper jack, and a jalapeno cilantro mayo. I found the jalapeno cilantro mayo to be underwhelming, maybe a thicker smear of it, or a bit more kick from something would've helped it to stand out. The ciabatta bun fell apart from the beefy, cheesy greasiness of the burger but that didn't stop me from finishing off what I drove out to J & P for. The fries were definitely fresh cut homestyle shoestring fries, with a sprinkling of salt they were great tasting, though a little soggy. The sweet tea was perfect, not overly syrupy sweet just refreshing on a warm afternoon. The waitress was friendly and handling everything well between 6 or so tables of diners when I visited. Definitely worth a drive to Comstock for some simple but good food, and a recommendation from the Border Patrol guys. read more

The J and P Bar & Grill - Cheeseburger and fries - New American Near Me - Comstock, Texas

I have stopped in for the night in Comstock for many years while passing through on motorcycle trips. I always stay at the Comstock Motel (basic, clean and highly recommended) and eat dinner at the J&P Bar & Grill. The folks running the place have always been friendly and welcoming. While I have had most of their burgers (which are excellent), my favorite is their steak finger plate. Every time I have stopped in, it was filled with locals. They and everyone there treated me great. If you are ever passing through Comstock, you should definitely stop in at the J&P (and grab a room at the Comstock Motel). Highly recommend. read more

The J and P Bar & Grill - New American Near Me - Comstock, Texas

Stopped here on the way home from Big Bend. Don't let the appearance fool you. Service was friendly. And the food was delicious. Our group had burgers, tacos and chicken nachos. My GPS was leading me further into town. This restaurant is right off of 90 when you enter town from the east. This is a local restaurant. Would recommend to anyone going thru. read more

Great food and service. Stephanie was our server. She was very efficient and friendly. We were driving thru to SAT and happy we stopped there for lunch. The cheddar cheese burger was amazing in the ciabatta bread. Big burger too. And the chicken tenders were great too. Good fresh coffee. Great lunch. Thx ! We will stop there on our future trips read more

What an amazing find! Absolutely one of the best burgers I have ever had and the onion rings are homemade too. Attentive and friendly service as well. read more

Rustic & casual bar with great food! The perfect place for sweaty workers go get a man-sized lunch in the A/C. The burgers and sandwiches are good; I love the open-faced Chicken-Fried Steak Sandwich! (Side can be fries or green salad!) Almost full bar. Plenty of parking. read more

On a motorcycle trip to Big Bend, this restaurant was our lunch stop. It doesn't look like much from the outside and the decor inside is just as simple. The food however is very good as is the service. I'm not certain why but all their sandwiches and burgers are served on fresh ciabatta breads. The bread is fabulous!! The fried pickles are crazy good. Beef for the burgers is ground fresh and the fries are homemade also. The only complaint my group has was the gravy served with the chicken strips. Everyone was happy with their food. read more

Fantastic food and cold beer! The BLT on Texas toast was one of the best. Try the fries!!!!

A hidden gem!. One of the best burgers I've ever had. It's a lil bit of a drive from Laughlin but well worth it for some great burgers and beer. Service is always on point as wait staff is friendly and funny. Ambience is cool and has a feel of what you'd expect for a restaurant in a small town--like dining in a restaurant in a movie since the spot is pretty isolated. However, it's welcoming and has anyone/everyone from different parts of S. Texas dining together. They even have TVs for games which was cool for the bar aspect. Be sure to check hours before going because my wife and I drove there on a Monday but they were closed! We caught it the next day though . read more

We were told to stop here and warned that if we blinked, we'd miss it. Great advice. The burgers here are superb. Fresh and interesting. I had cheeseburger with grilled onions and jalapeño meat. The mayo is zesty without true heat. Meat was juicy and cooked to perfection. Bun was soft and probably made on site (but I don't know). Fries were cut fresh and fried dark -like I prefer them- but not hot when delivered. I would 100% recommend this place. But don't blink - or you'll miss it. *note: the State rescinded mask requirements. While this restaurant had distanced tables and a hand sani station at the entrance, NO ONE was wearing a ma read more

The J and P Bar & Grill - Cheeseburger with grilled onions and fries - New American Near Me - Comstock, Texas

Super delicious!! My friends and I had just ran in Seminole Canyon, and we were HUNGRY. This place hits the spot! I got the patty melt and subbed the regular mayo with jalapeño mayo--definitely gave it a nice kick. I didn't catch the name of our waitress, but she was sassy. And we loved it! She had us laughing and made our lunch even more enjoyable. This is THE PLACE to eat in the area. So good! read more

For what it is, it's 5 stars. Great burger and friendly, easy folks. It's pretty big, you may consider splitting one. Onion rings delicious. Yelp says closed on Sunday but they are certainly open read more

This place is fantastic. A great find in Comstock with awesome burgers and great sides. Not a whole lot going on in Comstock, but when you pass by this place and see every car in town parked outside, you know it is the place to go. Ate there after a 6 night kayak trip on the Pecos River and it was truly the perfect re-introduction to civilization. I don't think I could drive through Comstock without stopping by. Super friendly staff and always something going on. read more

Well, I decided to go to Seminole Canyon State Park after a fellow Master Naturalist made it sound so appealing. I booked a four-night stay since it was a far piece to get there. I researched the area for things to do and places to see. Let me tell you, there isn't a whole out out that way. I saw that the only place to eat in Comstock, Texas was the J and P Bar & Grill. My initial reaction to that was "I'll pass", but everyone I talked to said they had seen it mentioned on TV, or eaten there and loved it. I decided that I would go there for a burger the day I arrived, so that I would have plenty of time to "walk it off" on the trails. As soon as I sat down, the friendliest server came over to take my order. She was so nice and welcoming that I felt at home, even though I was surrounded by cowboys and working men who seemed to know each other and felt a little out of place when first walking through the door. I ordered the Devils Burger, which comes with grilled jalapeno, pepper jack cheese, and jalapeno mayo. I added bacon, of course. It was on a ciabatta bun. The fries were those little thin ones that I normally don't care for. These however, were cooked perfectly and had a really delicious taste, almost as if they were a bit caramelized from the fryer. I know that makes no sense, but this is my review, so suck it up buttercup. I asked the server for a knife. I have this obsessive habit of always cutting my burgers in half. It annoys one of my sons. He says hamburgers are meant to be eaten whole. I don't care. I like to cut them in half and dip them in ketchup with each bite. Anyway, she brought me a plastic knife wrapped in a napkin which did the job. I have to say that burger was the single best burger I have ever eaten in my entire life. The ciabatta bun had just a bit more chew to it than a normal one. The meat was juicy, well-seasoned, and had that greasy goodness that I love in a burger. With all of the other things on it, especially the jalapeno mayo, it became an absolute explosion of wonderfulness with every bite. There was a little bit of a spicy burn, but not overpowering enough to interfere. So I went back to the park and got on with my life. The wind was predicted to be bad enough on my departure day, that I booked another night, rather than have a white-knuckle trip home towing my trailer. That gave me more time to hike trails, even though the wind was annoying as hell. On Friday, the day I was originally supposed to return home, I took the guided tour down into the canyon to see the ancient paintings for the second time. On the way back up, the topic of food came up, and a couple mentioned how good the chicken fried steak was at J and P the day before. That got my brain reliving that burger. I had hiked to the tour, so during the mile-long hike back to the trailer, I decided that I would go back for another one. I looked at the pictures of their menu on the Facebook page when I got back to camp and decided that, this time, I would get the patty melt with added bacon and jalapeno mayo. I cleaned up a bit and hopped in the truck. I went to the same table from Monday, and the same wonderful server came over to take my order. I was fully intent on the patty melt, but my mouth asked for a chicken fried steak! I am a big fan of chicken fried steaks. I have tried hundreds of different ones around the state. This one was the best I've ever had. I was totally floored by the concept of finding my life-best burger and chicken fried steak in the tiny town of Comstock, Texas, out in the middle of nowhere. The steak was served with a mound of those delectable skinny fries I already mentioned. There was also a side salad covered in the thickest and creamiest ranch dressing on the plate and some Texas toast. The steak was covered in cream gravy, which is the only way I like it. Whenever I go somewhere that offers a choice of brown or cream gravy for their chicken fried steak, I order something else entirely because they obviously don't know what they are doing. No offense folks, but if you eat your chicken fried steak with brown gravy, or even worse without gravy, you are just plain crazy! The gravy was super thick and perfectly seasoned. I kept dipping my Texas toast into it. The coating on the steak was also perfect. It was thick, tasty, and crunchy. It had a floury lightness to the crunch that made all the difference in the world. Also, it stayed on the meat. There's nothing worse than a chicken fried steak where the coating comes off like a glove. The meat was fully flavored with just enough chew to it to tantalize your mouth. I am going to be sure to go back there to eat. I honestly think it is worth the drive from San Antonio even without staying at the park. I won't do that. I'll come back, stay in the park, hike the trails, and try some other burgers at J and P Bar and Grill. I'm going to try and time it for the Deer Feed Bash! I want to try the "Fried deer meet with lot's of fixin's"! read more

This place is a must stop if you like Burgers! Looks a bit like a converted gas station from the outside and like a small town bar on the inside. There was a large table of locals the night we stopped in. Wait staff seemed to know most everyone by name. The service was neither the fastest or most professional in the world, but it was friendly and sincere! If you are a picky Karen you won't enjoy this place, but if you are someone with a bit of chill that likes good food you should definitely stop in. The sweet tea and sweet potato fries were also honorable mentions, but the burgers are the real winners! read more

Great staff, there hardly ever a long wait for my order and the food it always satisfying.

Quite possibly the best hamburger I have ever eaten. There is no way we would have stopped at this somewhat shady looking dive bar - were it not for all the wonderful Yelp reviews. A large variety of toppings, sandwiches, and burgers. Very friendly staff. Don't miss this place if you are passing through Comstock. read more
