Ignore the large billboards for fast food chains and get 5 mins off I 35 in Waco for this homemade style burger and fries diner—they show why it’s always good to support local business, the Food ones especially. This place started in 1947 and knows what they’re cooking. We had the bacon burger basket (that had a burger, insanely long hand cut fries, and a drink), chicken nuggets that came with fries and a chicken burger. But really, most go there for the cheese burger, could tell from all the cooking and assembly happening right in front of us. The chicken breast in my burger was the only one on amongst the hundreds of smashed beef patties simmering on the griddle in batches. The chicken was...
First time visiting this legendary Waco burger landmark. We were not disappointed.First, the owners and staff are very friendly and welcoming. We got to hear a little about the history of Cupp’s straight from the owner, which was interesting. It’s very encouraging to hear about a successful family owned business that’s been around for decades.After looking over the menu, we decided to go with what they were famous for. I had the double double basket and the wife had the bacon cheeseburger. We split the fries. All I can say is “wow”! The burgers were perfect. The meat was fresh and seasoned just right and cooked to perfection. The veggies were fresh, crisp and tasty. The fries are as good as...
What a wonderful little dive here in Waco! Eight stools and four booths keep this tiny burger joint full all the time as patrons come in and eat quickly only to have their spot filled within moments of their exit. The burgers are seasoned perfectly and grilled to order. What took my breath away was the steak fingersthat are cut, breaded, and fried to order. All of the meats looked fresh and tasty, which they definitely were! This was my first visit but certainly not my last. Best burger that I've found here in Waco since moving here a year ago. Way to go, Cupps!
This hole in the wall joint made the best burgers! We ordered a cheeseburger basket that came with a burger, small fry, and can soda. I was a little apprehensive because of the looks of the place, but was splendidly surprised when I got my food. Burger was moist, fresh vegetables inside, fries homemade. Everything is cooked in the open where you can see it. I'm so glad we came by. I definitely would come again. Oh, and the service was friendly. That's always a plus. Because of these things, I can overlook the way the place looked.

I've been going to Cupp's for a long time and they have some of the best burgers I've ever had. Heck, everything I've tried from their menu is always delicious. The staff is always super friendly and quick. They're always really good about checking on you and making sure your drink is never empty. The place is pretty small so it can get crowded when it's busy, but I personally like that old-school diner feel.I also highly recommend trying their Habañero hotsauce if it's available. Perfect level of spice and flavor!
What a pleasant surprise. Big little burger connection. This place brings you back to the time when a Hamburgerstand was something delicious and unique. Very small venues have such patience while these guys cook an excellent meal.
Very very impressed food is great workers are great, and they took care of me. I normally don't leave reviews for burger joints I'm telling you this is a one of a kind place. Big thanks to cupps drive in.
It's definitely not the normal burger joint. If you want a taste of old times go by and get some good food. Just go early and don't be in any hurryFood: 4/5
