After 55 years of serving internationally renowned barbecue in Driftwood, the Salt Lick is honoring its cofounder with Thurman’s Old-Fashioned Burger at Austin Bergstrom International Airport. Thurman Roberts traveled across Texas for work and he loved getting burgers at little stands along the way. Thurman’s Signature Cheeseburger was modeled after his favorite burger and includes two 1/4lb. beef patties with secret seasoning with a slice of cheese in the middle.

After 14 hours in the air, two layovers, and a seatmate who snored like a chainsaw, I stumbled into AUS Airport feeling like a crumpled boarding pass. My stomach was growling louder than the jet engines, and I had zero expectations for airport food—until I saw the glowing sign for Thurman’s Old-Fashioned Burger near Gate 21.
I ordered the Signature Cheeseburger, which comes stacked with two juicy ¼ lb patties and a slice of cheese tucked right in the middle like a secret handshake from Texas. The seasoning? Bold. The bun? Soft and warm. The fries? Crispy salvation. It wasn’t just a meal—it was a redemption arc.
That burger didn’t just satisfy my hunger. It restored my faith in airport dining and gave me the strength to face the final leg of my journey. If you ever find yourself weary and wandering through Austin’s terminals, Thurman’s might just save your day too.

Tried at the Airport, Couldn’t Even Finish It was awful, expensive waste.
The burger was dry, flavorless, and fell apart almost immediately. I had to stop eating halfway, it just wasn’t enjoyable at all. The fries looked interesting (more like thick potato wedges), but they didn’t taste like much, no seasoning, no crispness, just bland.
I noticed others eyeballing their burgers as well and throwing them away without finishing. Super disappointing.
Photos show how it started… and how it ended.

So we hit this burger stand with our vouchers after getting stuck at AUS for an extra 3.5 hours. Robert, the cashier was more than accommodating and very helpful making sure that our meals were covered correctly and exactly what we wanted. Jose was working on the grill and our order was served up quick. I ordered a Philly Cheesesteak and it was perfect. My daughter ordered chicken tenders and practically inhaled them! The fries were great, not over seasoned as some places tend to do these days. Even after they closed Robert was still very helpful after my daughter threw my “to go bag” away stopping what he was doing and getting me another. With all the chaos of changed gates, messed up planes and altered flights/missed connections it was refreshing to have Robert and Jose be an oasis of calm. I don’t know if we will fly the same airline but flying out of AUS I’ll stop here again.

Super expensive for food that is sloppy and tasteless it took 20 mins to make A chicken sandwich and cheeseburger their fountain machine wasn’t working and the cook was on his phone for 10 minutes while the burgers were getting overcooked and they forgot to put special sauce on my burger even though I asked for it The food is way overcooked and doesn’t taste very good and it’s super sloppy and greasy wouldn’t recommend coming here.

This place was at the airport in Austin Texas. So of course you have to take that into consideration as most airport places aren’t going to stack up to their other locations.
With that said the burger looked amazing as you can see in pictures, but it was kinda bland and dry.
I’ve never heard of this place but everything I read on their signs sure made me feel it was going to be something special.
At least I had time to get a thing to eat as my layover was only 45 minutes. It definitely filled me up.
People were your typical airport working. They didn’t really want to be there, just like me.

This review is for the budget conscious –
Airport food was always overpriced and now with food inflation it is even worse, especially when feeding three people. At twenty dollars per person, it ends up being sixty, and the food usually looks and tastes like it should cost about twenty total.
Enter Thurmans kids menu. Six dollars gets you a one quarter pound burger or two piece chicken tender with sauce plus fries. Ordering on the kiosk weirdly charges for sauces but ordering in person does not. The food was made fresh and actually tasted good. The ranch and honey mustard really hit the spot and the fries, cut big which is not usually my favorite style, tasted just fine with salt and ketchup.
Overall, I was glad to spend under twenty to feed the family with decent tasting food.

$20 for a a burger, fries and drink. The taste and quality of the beef was similar to what they serve in a public school cafeteria. The order kiosk asked for a tip and the only options were No Tip or 18% and up. Also, tables to sit at are limited and dirty. It’s an airport so the bar is low but this experience still came in well under it.

Great price for a kids meal and plenty filling. Fries were fresh and tasted great and the burgers were juicy and flavorful.
The guy at the counter was helpful and friendly too!

Service was very slow and the burger and fries terrible. Of course it is at the airport so kind of expected. Pretty pricey as well for a burger and fries. Only eat here if you have to.
