the cow calf-hay

okay burgers. theburgerswere better than fast-food. it's an average place, with a few interesting things like the fried egg, which every burger place should now do. it's not cheap, but not super-expensive.

chaotic is putting it kindly. twice, they tried to bring us someone else's order. the third time, the manager brought out someone else's onion rings. only then did he hear what i said each time before: "we haven't ordered yet." to his credit, the manager apologizes profusely and offered the onion rings and, later, dessert. it wouldn't have been a biggie, except at no time did anyone ask if we needed a refill. when it comes to refills, i have an internal meter tied to the tip. it begins at 15-20 percent. it went to zero tonight. that said, theburgersand fries were really good. just be sure not to go when there are more than 2-3 other tables occupied.

son and i had a late lunch here a few days ago and both of us ordered burgers.  rings for me and sweet tater fries for the boy,  good burger but overcooked, the worst thing you can do to a good burger. burgersare meant to be juice dripping & mouthwatering to the point where you cannot even put it down.  the onion rings were homemade but lacked flavor.  why can't anyone in okc make good onion rings???  i thank them for doing them homemade but they need flavor.  nice atmosphere and we had a very friendly waitress so all in all i am sure we will be back.

the decorations and menu names are remarkable, but the food is not.  this was my first visit.  with a name like theirs, i figured that theirburgerswould be the thing to try.  the burger recipes are distinct from others that you will find in the okc metro area, e.g. the mad cow burger.  i went with the onion burger since that is how i like to assess the quality of a burger joint.  it is listed as an onion cheeseburger, but i got mine without cheese since i don't care for american cheese.

the burger was just average. i had to order ketchup and mustard because they are not provided at the table.  i also ordered lettuce, tomato, and pickles to go with some extra grilled onions.  i am not sure why this is not listed on the menu.  the lettuce was a green lettuce leaf that overlapped the bun; i had to fold it over to make it fit on the burger.  the tomatoes and pickles were fine.  it did not seem like i got extra grilled onions, and i could barely taste them against the flavor of the burger itself.

a tabletop sign proudly proclaimed that they serveburgersmade from angus beef.  this must be a cut of beef without much fat in it because the burger that i got was lean.  at other burger joints, i worry about the bun disintegrating from contact with burger drippings, but not here.  the patty had good beef flavor with little aftertaste.  it was served at a temperature just a little bit hotter than room temperature; i prefer myburgersto be served too hot to handle straight off the griddle. 

i got french fries as my side dish.  i don't like it that you have to choose a side dish.  i didn't feel like paying a dollar extra to get a salad, onion rings, or sweet potato fries.  on the plus side, the fries were served hot and were not greasy.  on the negative side, they were barely seasoned.  i added salt to make them taste better.

this place is worth a return visit, but i won't come again until i'm in the edmond area for lunch.

love this place. greatburgersand onion rings. support the local eateries like this one. can be hard to find it if you've never been but worth looking for. would definitely recommend!

bestburgersin edmond. no frills but great food!!! i especially like the classic and sweet potato fries. off the beaten path but worth the trip.

the food here is always great! not a lot of options on the menu but who cares it is all fantastic! cow calf-hay has one of the betterburgersin okc/edmond. the only downer is service isn't always the best.

came here after church for lunch. the menu was small but enticing. it was hard to decide. the hubs got a farmhouse, which had sausage mixed in with the beef and a fried egg. i was pleasantly surprised since i'm not a huge fan of eggs. i ordered the mad cow. it was very tasty. it includes beef, chicken, potatoes (ikr?!), two kinds of cheese, and a handmade ranch dressing. bothburgerswere juicy and flavorful. the hubs got sweet potato fries, which were a tad done. the waiter - without prompting - recognized this and brought replacement fries. awesome job! the regular fries could have been fresher. the boy got a grilled cheese, of which i was not privileged to partake. he liked it. the coke had an odd aftertaste, almost diet, but not. we will eat here again.

my husband and i thought theburgerswere great. i would eat here again. it's off the main road. needs more advertisement. only way we would have known about this place was zomato.

tasha henderson. i tried this place for the first time. been seeing the building but not knowing what it was. (needs a better marketing strategy) this place should be more popular than it is. the mad cow burger that i had was awesome!!! one of the bestburgersi've had in oklahoma.

great little place to eat! their primary focus is high quality flattop cookedburgersbut i order the grilled ultimate chicken sandwich almost every time. it's fantastic. also, don't forget to ask for some garlic mayo, it's amazing too! not sure what dr is talking about, but judging by his profile he is a chronic disliker.

disappointed. heard about this place and decided to try it. i took one bite and knew something was wrong. i tried another bite and then tasted the meat. this is not angus but a poor quality beef.
i didn't eat the burger and they were nice and took it off my bill. the people next to us didn't like theirburgerseither but didn't say anything.
you are better off to eat at mcdonalds which is next to this place. i don't know they can have so many positive reviews unless they and their friends are filling them out.

one of the bestburgersi've tasted in a while!!. i had the mad cow burger and it was delicious! the customer service was awesome as well! i'm definitely going to be come a regular customer.

great burgers. if you want a burger without having to dress up, this is the place to go! so far i have not been disappointed in any of theburgersordered, and i have been there several times! the sides are basic, glad to see the macaroni salad is gone. i have not tried the garden salad since it has been on the menu yet. the sweet potato fries did not have much flavor, so my husband said he will stick to the regular fries next time.
kid friendly and budget friendly as well!

awesome hole in the wall. great friendly service. fantastic food. used a quarter role of paper towels theburgerswere juicy but not greasy! the mad cow burger is a must try!
