Snack Shack

The food here is good - inexpensive with a lot of options. It looks like the kind of place you could grab a quick bite to eat - but there is nothing quick about this place. Settle in for a 30 minute to one hour wait depending on how many other orders they might have ahead of yours. Rounding up what might have been a 3.5 star review because Alpine operates on its own time and the couple running the place were sweet.

It's quintessential Texas drive through on the outskirts of Alpine either as you're coming from Fort Davis or leaving Alpine. It is very tasty and unique. Don't bother asking the owner for suggestions. She says it's up to you on what toppings to include. I was expecting traditional tater tots, but it's more like a smashed baked potato. If I had known I would have added mushrooms. However, it was just the right portion and very filling. I liked driving up to the window because sometimes you just don't feel like getting out.

I love this place! Their baked potatoes are so delicious! And today I ordered the Shack salad and it was so good made with fresh crisp veggies. The burgers are great too! And my phone order is always taken by the nicest lady and our orders have always been made exactly how we asked.

Best food I've had in a while the Texas Tater is the one items I extremely recommend it you have a variety of toppings to choose from and the flavor is amazing and fresh it may take a while to receive your order after you pay but it is so worth the wait the ladies there are so sweet and wonderful and the prices aren't too bad but I highly recommend

This place is a true hidden gem!! It's a bit off the main beaten path but definitely worth checking out. We love the Texas taters and believe me, it's loaded!! The sweet lady that runs it is fantastic.

ECLECTIC LITTLE PLACE WITH WIDE MENU(Warning: Young adults from Central Florida in for a vacation) This really is a 'snack shack' with a collection of fun food such as Nachos, Sandwiches, Ice Cream, and more. Prices are low... great little place to stop by quickly if you're hungry.TEXAS TATERS AND TACOSWe came here when we saw photos of their Texas Taters and had to get one. It's a customizable Baked Potato which you can load (like... really load) with toppings like Mushrooms, Broccoli, Jalapenos... in addition to all the typical Baked Potato goodies. We also took a trio of Tacos. The Tacos weren't impressive- very simple and not really authentic. The Texas Tater was more impressive- almost like a collision of flavors perfect for a hangoverYOU HAVE TO TRAVEL OUT THEREThis little building is in north Alpine past all the regular businesses. There's no place to dine inside however there's a couple of tables under the shade out front. We enjoyed our food with a nice view of the simple nature stretched out in front of the restaurant. Lean bathrooms were on the side of the building.

Adorable little roadside stop. Their tacos are delicious and made with fresh ingredients. Their brisket sandwich was as good as any I have tasted in any brick and mortar restaurant. Definitely recommend stopping here for a bite to eat on a road trip through Alpine Texas!

Sets the standard for a Bean & Cheese Burrito and Narchos, for example, taste, quality, portion size and price.

Burger was ok. Tater tots cooked in old grease. Smoked bbq sandwich was by no means smoked. Stopped here traveling through because we had our dogs and they do have a few tables outside to eat on. Most importantly we waited over 30min if not longer for our food. Would not recommend

Overpriced and overcooked. If you want a good burger, go to Bock. If you want a cheap burger, go to Sonic or McDonalds, and you'll get fries and a drink too.
