Fat Boy Burgers

Stumbled upon a hidden gem on HWY 281 - Fay Boy Burger is a culinary delight I'm thrilled to have discovered. The fish and shrimp dish was absolutely amazing, complementing the perfection of their burgers. What truly set this experience apart was the service, which went above and beyond. A special shoutout to Bert, who was an incredible host, guiding me to make the perfect meal choice. If you find yourself in the area, I highly recommend a visit. It's not just a meal; it's an experience you don't want to miss."

We are here in Johnson County for my cousin wedding .. this place is near the winery we are staying at ... it's a small shack like of a place with some of the best burgers we have had in a long time ... chicken fingers were great .. chili cheese tots were good ... the portion sizes are plentiful .. banana pudding was good .... definitely a 5star stop ..!!

This food truck was posted near where pictures of Santa were taking place. My 6 year old daughter smelled the food and said she wanted a burger! We tried the burger, fat dogs, fries, and fried pickles. The food was delicious! Though the staff was super busy, they were still really nice, and made sure the order was complete. It was also a short wait despite there being a lot of people in front of us. Very impressed with this experience!

The food at this place is damn good. Tried the chili burger and the bacon cheeseburger, both incredibly well made and affordable to top it off. Will definitely visit again, even if its out of the way!

Tried this place for the first time yesterday while passing through. I got a 1/2 Fat Boy Original + fries. I do not think they do combos here but the price was well worth the food. I normally pass right through town when driving on 281 but I think I may be stopping more often as the food was amazzzzing.
Place is a little small and crowded but lots of outdoor seating I saw.

This is by far the best burger I've eaten in 10 years. Please if you are ever in Johnson City Texas stop in off 281 and enjoy the mushrooms burgers and onion rings. .My husband got the fish he said it was amazing as well.

Food was soo good! Great stop on the route from Austin to Fredericksburg. The team were so friendly and the service was amazing!

Food was great! Expect service time to be 15-20 minutes (slower than fast food joint) but we also came during peak hours and the food was worth the wait.

Highly recommend the fried chicken sandwich and onion rings especially!

Great burger love the toasted bun, the chili cheese fries were great, everything was fresh and delicious and made correctly!
Definitely a must-stop if you're heading to the hill country/South Texas! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great burger! Highly recommend, I did an order online and they forgot to put my fries in I paid for..ahh bummer, but other than that, super good!

Great burgers!! They were huge, hot & fresh. The fries & onion rings were awesome & the beef fajita bowl was delicious!! We drive by a lot in the mornings, but today we went by in the afternoon & stopped for lunch, best decision ever!

Super good would definitely make the 49 Mile drive to Johnson City just to eat here

We stumbled upon this restaurant while driving home from out of town.
The name caught our attention and it had good reviews. The reviews were right! We had a cheeseburger with fries and a drink. They also had large homemade cookies at the register, I got a snickerdoodle and it was soft and yummy!
The people were kind and the burgers and fries were great! A definite must try!

My family and I stopped after a day at the Science Mill, and the food was amazing. Those onions rings were crispy on the outside, but just butter soft on inside. And I normally don't like onion rings, nor will my two elementary age kids, but there are made different. ❤ We ate everything, and left feeling so full. Very well worth the money. Also the bathrooms are exceptionally clean. Seriously even my 10 year old son commented on it.

We stopped by on our way back up 281, headed home. We have seen the place many times. I'm glad we decided to stop by! The food was great! I had a chicken sandwich and my family had burgers. It was all delicious. It was crowded and took a little bit, but it was worth the Wait.

Very good burgers! And the kids' chicken tender basket was excellent. Fries were crispy and delicious.

DELICIOUS!!! I had the chili burger and it was revolutionary. Amazing. Didn’t even give my husband a bite.
My husband had fried onion rings, bacon cheeses burger, and it was delicious as well. My side was sweet potato fries and they were ahhhmazing. Everything was delicious and worth it. Didn’t have a chance to try the ice cream because we were too full, but next time.

Today my family and I tried this place for the first time and we were not disappointed. The food was amazing, they have healthy options like very delicious salads. The service was great too. And there are outdoor seatings if you have pets. Really nice option in Johnson city.

This was the second time I’ve eaten here and got the same thing both times. 1st time with hubby & 2nd time a group of lady friends. We all loved the food. We got burgers and they were super flavorful . A definite must stop if you’re passing through!! The service was just ok. We ate outside and all the tables available were dirty so we had to clean our own table, which we figured since we ate outside it was understandable. I do think the place including all outside facilities should be kept cleaner especially with the cost of the food, however if you can overlook the cleanliness and so-so customer service, it’s definitely worth eating.

I didn't take photos because I inhaled it! ORDER THE ONION RINGS! Have dipped and fried... Makes me think of something I'd get at the fair. So good! Burgers are 1/2#.

Inside and shaded outside seating. Cute place for sure! Check it out. I'll be back with friends for the onion rings!
