Hamburger Depot

You get a 10% off discount if you show them your Lamar university ID. The burgers are really good, and the people who work there are really friendly. However, they can be a bit unprofessional with customers they know if that’s something that would bother you. You may be waiting on them to finish a conversation, but in the two times that I’ve been there, no one has been rude, or unfriendly. It’s a good place to go if you’re on your way home from class.

The burgers are so good, they don’t even need cheese. Order with everything and eat it. Thank me later.

Super busy during the lunch hour, but very good burgers and it will give you food coma but it’s worth it! Always stays clean and good customer service

If I get a burger from here, its good. It’s a burger place. However, if you want chicken strips, you might as well just ask sysco to deliver frozen southern breaded warehouse made chicken strips. Not good. For the money that was paid they should be hand cut and battered, not frozen and dropped. They also tasted like shrimp, so either the chicken and shrimp is cooked in the same oil, or the chicken strips just tasted like shrimp. Good burgers, shrimpy chicken strips.

Great food, decent wait time during lunch hour, close to Lamar Campus, and affordable! Love it!

The food was DELICIOUS. The service was great, came in on a business trip from Houston and wanted to try one of the local places.
Hamburger depot hit the spot.

First time ever eating here and all I can say is DELICIOUS. they keep this up and they might just unseat whataburger for the #1 spot in my heart. The burgers where nice and bug and juicy yet not greasy. I had okra as a side, I mean like cmon what burger joint offers okra as a side? That had to be the definition of a Southern establishment. Overall great. Customer service was nice place seemed cleavage & food was great definitely 5 star worthy.

I had a really good plain cheeseburger here. Very juicy, large portion. They have a lot of burgers on the menu, but don’t go here expecting much else. It is a good price, about the same as any fast food place.
I don’t recommend the Cajun fries — they had very little seasoning on them and were hardly distinguishable from regular fries.
Also, don’t try to order tap water. They claim not to have it (of course they do) because they want you to buy a bottled water.

Many times eating here and always the same, come hungry, leave stuffed!
Hamburger Depot is far from your typical burger joint.
To begin with, there is a menu that’s sure to please any and all taste, and if not, it’s been my experience that they can more than likely accommodate by your next visit.
Your food isn’t «fired» till ordered, so wait times are a little longer than typical burger chains, but well worth the wait.
Prices are on par with Whataburger but again, the weight makes it worth it.
I have never, ever ever had my order mistaken, they are by far my favorite burger joint in roughly 50 mile radius.

Blues Skies!

The food was quite good. I find them not quite as good as Willy Burger but also different in a way that you can’t quite compare them. I would defiantly get food here again.
Main thing that bothered me was the lady cleaning up, she asked and hinted at getting a tip 3 times. no joke. I always tip well, but i never had someone do that. I took a star because of that. That honestly was the main issue I had with the place. As you will see from all the other reviews they have pretty good to great food. I would just order to go maybe ;)

Always wonderful food, we usually get to go because it is always so crowded and loud but you cant beat the food.

It’s not necessary to go into details. this is ABSOLUTELY the BEST hamburger you will find in the area.
I prefer the downtown location very clean friendly staff, quick service.
The dining room at the one on cardinal drive is really dirty, and the staff is not too nice.
Ignore the Cardinal drive location shown on the Unilocal map and find the Downtown location at 790 Neches St, Beaumont, TX

This place is great and the burgers are huge. You can get a cheeseburger, fries and a drink for 7.50. Don’t be in a hurry because, it will take a while to get your burger out and there is not much room to seat in the small dining room. I would suggest you wait till just before or after the lunch rush to hit them up. The best burgers in Beaumont!

3^rd time was today — june 1, 2015
had the bacon cheeseburger w/​onion rings… this time the patty was cooked a tad too long… a bit dry… but, when you’re hungry and craving a burger… you eat it!

Okay, my review updates of this long-​beloved place have gotten a bit epic. I had a chance to enjoy another Depot burger and I’m gonna set the old star-​o-​meter at four stars. The burger is definitely above average! =)

The staff is always rude and the patties have no flavor to me. I have visited numerous times, always hoping for it to live up to the «word of mouth» praises, but no. It never does. Whataburger, Novrosky’s, and Willy Burger are all better choices!

I came here because of such high positive reviews on Unilocal,but this was my experience.
1. The place was a wreck: it was dirty, there were no menu signs in place, and the staff was rude.
2. The service was slow: it took 15 min to get my order.
3. The service is poor: they got my order wrong. I ordered onion rings and I got fries.
Do yourself a favor, and just go to McDonald’s.

Great hamburger, quick service, wonderful price, and must visit while in or around the Beaumont, TX area.

Asked a friend about a GOOD burger, so I tried these guys out.
I was totally satisfied, and it didn’t break the bank.
Glad to know one is coming to Nederland. I will be a regular for SURE!

Have you ever had a hamburger from a gas station? This is what detered me from entering, many, many, times, until my curiousity exploded and my desire for a new, good hamburger just had to be satisfied.
It is actually a hamburger joint attached to a gas station. The burger isn’t being served to you by the clerk pushing the gas buttons, talking on the phone to her sister, and unable to find a package of cigarettes that is clearly, blue. No, No, this place is ran by what seems to be a close knit African American family. Family, friends or whatever– they are on to something!
The burgers come in all weights: from heavyweight burgers for the fearless glutton, to people watching their weight, yet unable to resist this understandable vice. The dieting should probably order the «Sissy Burger». Of course, I had no interest in getting this, so I cannot describe it to you. In my weight class, I found half pound patties covered in Chilli and Cheese and others covered in BBQ and jalapenos. The burger is damn good! And you will be sure to pay for it once you leave the parking lot. However what puts this place in the 5 star category, what brings it over the top is what sides the burger. Of course you have French Fries (which are fantastic), then Curly Fries, then Cajun Seasoned Fries, and oh yes, the Onion Rings, but hold on… brace yourself… FRIED OKRA! My eyes fell out of my face, onto the counter as the cashier handed them back to me and I sat down. Once the burger and the okra arrived, I still hadn’t got over the intitial shock of seeing fried okra on the menu and how it is that basic food that I adore, but is hard to find in the most obvious of restaurants. I had 10 – 20 ugly minutes of face stuffing and left Hamburger Depot.
So Thank You! Beaumont needs you!
