About

This isn't your average diner. Lankford Grocery and Market is a women-led spot in Montrose that's built its reputation on massive, greasy burgers widely considered the best in Houston. Housed in a former grocery store, the kitschy atmosphere and cash-only policy keep things authentic. It's a casual, no-fuss stop for classic American fare with a loyal local following.

Breakfast is served all day, but burgers are the main draw. The place closes at 8pm most days, so plan for lunch or an early dinner. You might spot a steady stream of regulars grabbing their fix alongside newcomers who've heard the hype. If you're in the area, it's also a short walk to Empire Cafe for a coffee afterward.
