I’m a bit of burger connoisseur of hamburgers and this Double cheeseburger with double cheese and bacon on a sweet role did not disappoint. Lots of flavor lots of juice coming out of the meat and you could tell it was hand made not machine pressed. The cinnamon roll was was amazing also!
I love to support local family businesses and I will certainly be back once I recover from this big meal.
We tried these burgers yesterday and thought they were super fresh and tasty. We ordered for take out. The place itself is nostalgically designed with a Juke box and an old 1970s television that was playing Little Rascals. They bake their own buns which really kicks up the quality of the burgers. The fries were crinkled and ok but the onion rings were delicious and maintained their crunchiness even through the ride home which was impressive. The fries were soggy by the time we got home but still well cooked. They keep condiments on the side in packets and don’t place them on the burgers whether you are dining in or taking out, which I prefer. They have both bottled drinks and soda fountain drinks available, but the fountain drinks came with the combo. They had sweets available as well that we didn’t try this time including house made ice cream with flavors I don’t see as often like apple& cinnamon and Peaches&cream. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re craving burgers.

Simply incredible Burger! I ordered the #3 Bacon Cheeseburger and it did not disappoint. Fantastic bun and full flavor. I highly recommend The Good News Burger!

Burgers were a good size. Toasted buns. Very good flavor. They offer a choice of fresh or sauteed onions on your burgers. Choice of fries, tater tots or onion rings. The batter on the onion rings was very tasty. Staff was very friendly and professional. We will be eating here again.

I just tried Good News Burgers for the first time and it was mostly a great experience. The burger was huge (Jack Burton) and the bun... I fell in love with the bun. Buttery, toasty and just a little sweetness. By far the best bun I've ever had on a burger, anywhere. The bacon and the cheese on this burger was superb.
The onion rings were super delicious. Light batter that tasted a lot like a beer batter. Crunchy and not greasy and the onions were cooked perfectly. Some of the best onion rings I've had in San Antonio.
Now for the only bad part. I ordered the fried mushrooms and was super super disappointed. (I've included a picture with a quarter in the pic for reference) There were only 7 small mushrooms in the order. At $7.95 + tax per order, that means every mushroom costs more than $1 each. They were overcooked and very greasy and by the time I got them home, all the breading was nothing but mush and I live less than 4 minutes from the store.
Overall, the experience was great. The mushrooms are a huge NO. Super disappointed because I was really wanting fried mushrooms and that was one of the major reasons for my visit. Was considering going to another place for a burger but they didn't offer fried mushrooms.
I will go back for the Burgers and the O-rings but the fried mushrooms, never again. I would have given this place a 5 star rating had I not ordered the mushrooms but I did, and that disappointment cost them 1 star.

Now I have been to the original Papa's burgers on the west side and was so excited to see that they have another location here closer to where I live. I brought my friend who had never eaten here before and I promised him that this was indeed the BEST burger in San Antonio! And man I knew I was right but to have my best friend tell me I was right means that I know a good burger! Everything was absolutely superb! We both had the bacon cheeseburger combo and I had tater tots and he had onion rings. Have you ever eaten something so delicious that you can't even talk because you're too busy saying Mmmmmmmm? This was us while we ate!! We also also had excellent customer service and the nostalgic feel of the restaurant as well as the cleanliness made it easy to see why this place is definitely a great place for people to come to. The flow of people was steady and even throughout that the staff were cleaning tables and making sure areas were sanitized. I'm so glad to have them near my home and I will be back very soon!

Came in for a late lunch with my friend and WOW... The burger was amazing. I opted for the #3 bacon cheeseburger combo with onion rings. Bun was warm, soft and buttery. Meat was cooked to perfection. Veggies were cool and crisp. Rings weren't too oily or fell apart. Staff was friendly and attentive. Restaurant was clean and inviting; all in all an excellent experience

Visited this little spot for the 1st time looking to find a decent burger, ended up having the best burger I've ever had in San Antonio. and burgers are my favorite food so that is saying a lot. Not only is the food a 10/10, it's the type of restaurant where you automatically feel at home because of the lovely staff. It's the type of restaurant where the cook comes out and asks the diners personally if they're enjoying their food. you have a new regular customer Good News burgers, thank y'all.

Our first time here. The staff was very friendly and informative. Had a little mishap with my chili cheese tots, I didn't complain, but they saw me and took initiative to replaced them. The food was so good. The buns are amazing. Cinnamon buns made in-house are warmed up and glazed to order. Great experience, we will return.

My first time here and believe me when the cashier was so friendly and explained the menu and ones she said that they don't put nothing on them because of they way it's made believe me they don't need that extra stuff . Fell in love with the first bite. You won't be disappointed it's one of the best burgers in my 52yrs and I was swept away. In love
