The Ultimate Hole-in-the-Wall. No doubt the best burgers in town. It may look a little scary when you drive by it but that is the draw for this Westpark landmark. The service is friendly, the food is made when you order it and the beer is cheap. The Double Buffalo Cheeseburger is to die for.

Bubba's Buffalo Burgers are Best !. Bubba's has been serving "Buffalo" (100% American Bison) longer than anywhere else in Houston... and it shows by the top quality of their buffalo burgers, chili, etc. Bubba's history defines it as a true "Texas-Icehouse" and it's friendly, down-home atmosphere reflects that. Despite it's small size, Bubba's has a vast selection of soft-drink refreshments and the list of beers they offer include most of those brewed by a local Houston micro-brewery named after a 6th-century patron Saint of brewers, named Arnold (but I can't tell you the name ... hint, hint). In fact, Bubba's sells more of this brewery's beer by the bottle than anywhere else (according to the brewer)... and they sell it at the lowest price you'll find anywhere. Only a customer ... I live about 40 minutes away ... but I eat at Bubba's regularly... and help keep their bushes sculpted to look like buffalo! Totally cosmic!

Great Burgers. Excellent food, good atmosphere, great staff. They sure know how to make people feel at home here. I never had a buffalo burger until I tried Bubba's, and it was awesome. They definently have me as a customer for years to come

Makes you feel at home. These are definitely some of the best burgers in Houston, in a no frills, come as you are, have a beer and kick back type atmosphere. As far as ambience goes, it's not very romantic, but it's perfect for a burger place, because burgers are meant to be enjoyed in a relaxed atmosphere. And yes the buffalo burgers are very tasty.

Bacon Cheese Buffalo Burger!. Throw on those tattered jeans, your favorite t-shirt and flip-flops, and head down to Bubbas on a sunny afternoon. Nothing can top an ice-cold beer, their bacon cheese buffalo burger and jalapeno potato salad, while sitting on their patio. This rickety, converted ice-house, and Bubbas crusty but friendly demeanor only adds to the experience. The current 610/59 construction makes getting into Bubbas parking lot difficult, but the smile on your face when you leave makes the effort worth while.

American Institution. I don't know how much longer this institution and mainstay of the American landscape will escape the onslaught of Houston expansion and freeway construction. However, while it lasts enjoy a burger done right on the front porch.

Buffalo is on the menu!.
Buffalo is on the menu! Fries are not an option.
Bubba Melt and the Buffalo cheese burger are a must!! Buffalo chili is also very tasty.
I preferred the Bubba Melt on white or wheat, no jalapenos.
Also a must are the hot -n- sweet homemade pickles...delicious alone - even better on a burger.
Also serve buffalo steaks
Bubba's gets my vote for the best burger shack in Houston.
