Blackie’s Gas Stop

This place was very accommodating to a large group that was in town to sell land. Came in with about 25 people and were able to sit us in the back all together. Food was great and the servers were trying really hard to keep up with all our orders and drinks at the same time while still accommodating other patrons. Solid beer selection. Really cool new soft T shirts. Games in the back and an area to play outdoor games as well. Very cool decor with it being an old gas station.

Not quite sure how to exactly to chalk up my experience here. There really are a limited amount of places to hang and dine off of Hwy 67 and in the Walnut Springs area. I am fortunate to be able to head up North from the city to spend time at the family ranch during the year and it seems new venues are opening up all the time. Blackie's is a sister to the Blackie's not to far away which has a very different vibe. Here, the restaurant is perched in a valley of sorts which provides some truly fantastic views. It has a really large outside patio with a game room and a stage for musicians. During our visit, a solo singer was setting up inside the bar area, which took out a couple of the booth's to sit in. There is a full bar with limited amount of tap beer for the offing. All the regular beer options available as well as some imports to sip on while chilling out. I opted for a Frozen Margarita, thinking it would be the usual fare coming from the ubiquitous machine. In this case, they are made individually in a blender. I think this is probably why the frozen arrived not completely frozen, with a very non-descript taste or flavor note. I thought I would jazz it up and asked for a shot of Herradura and a spoon to remove the little fly which had died with a smile on it's face from the drink. No worries, didn't make a fuss, just didn't want drink it. Pesky little things to curb, especially when you have an outdoor patio type of bar area.The menu is very simple with basic burgers and fried food such as Chicken, poppers and hush puppies. Also a couple of salads and chili. My sis in law grabbed a salad, bro in law and spouse burgers and myself the Chicken Tenders. We also pre-noshed on Hush Puppies and Poppers. I get the feeling that the poppers/puppies were from a food distributor such as Sysco. They were fine. My Chicken basket was a large serving with perhaps 4-5 tenders with fries. Unfortunately, as noted by another reviewer, the batter flaked off the chicken on the first bite. The chicken was well cooked and not dry and was tasty dipping into the Ranch dressing. Perhaps patting the chicken dry, giving it plenty of room in the pan, could eliminate this if they are made in house. Comments on the burgers were they were cooked to a well done. Note to self, next time in, ask them to prepare them medium. Sis in law, loved her salad which was fresh and crispy with nice chicken bites. Blackie's is a local haunt and I wouldn't come here expecting anything gourmet. Just solid bar food, with some small tweaks and an amazing view point for a sunset and friendly service. Our waitress was all of that. Checked in on us, was cheerful and friendly. Couldn't ask for anything more in that department. One note, there looks to be a large parking area as well as parking on along the front of the restaurant. If you park along the front, you are on gravel. So, jumping on the accelerator to exit and trying to get ahead of the cars barreling down 67 will have your heart skip a beat since it leads you to spinning out before advancing forward. Just a heads up!

Cool little hideaway bar with a decent bar selection and cool view overlooking a scenic valley.

First time here and won't be last on our travels on Hwy 67. Unless really wanting bbq it will replace Hard Eight. .Have a good selection of beers and food. Wife had the Swiss mushroom burger and I had the Attendant. Both were very good. Appear to be hand made patties that were thick and juicy with good flavor. The fries were good as well. Traveling thru this weekend so will stop by again. Saw another review that they have a cigar lounge. Completely missed that if it did, but will look this time.Worth the stop if traveling hwy 67 and worth a trip out there just for a meal and a nice drive.

Absolutely worth a visit! Beautiful setting, great people, cold drinks, cigar lounge, and a fabulous menu... the onion rings are some of the best I've ever had. Nicely done... can't wait for our next visit!

It was ok. It's a fun location but it seems more of a place to go for a beer. Maybe it was just an off day but the food was not very good at all. I got a crispy chicken sandwich. The breading just slipped right off and the chicken wasn't cooked all the way. I've heard good things about the onion rings and they were good but nothing amazing.

Went in at opening and found a seat. Young guy looking at us told us bartender was in the restroom and would be out shortly. 10 min later she came to take our order. Ordered onion rings $12.00 got about 8. Ordered 2 burgers 12.00 with cheese 2.00 extra came with fries. And ordered tea. They had to brew tea. Burgers delivered and tea. Wife had to go to tables in the back to find catsup meanwhile bartender is behind the bar eating onion rings and changing her shoes which she put under the bar on top of the extra liquor . Burger was ok hand cut fries were about the size of McDonalds am fries. $48.00 for two burgers and fries and onion rings and two teas. Burgers would have been better at Whataburger. No service and not that great of food. I'll never be back. And that's a shame as I like a good burger.

Last time we were there, they were out of almost everything. When we ordered chips and queso they tried to pass off reheated grease bombs as chips. They were inedible.... The waitress did replace them when we asked - she was nice, but the food was just not good.

The food was delicious but they charged us for a sandwich we didn't get and an undisclosed credit card fee which is currently illegal in the state of Texas. When we confronted them they refunded the sandwich but didn't really address the credit card charge situation.

Great onion rings and excellent food!! This place is a fantastic spot with indoor & outdoor dining and full bar. Cool unique atmosphere including a separate cigar bar. Great service, highly recommend!
