Social Profile:

With its’ origin as a Conoco service station in the 50’s, The IceHouse Kitchen & Tavern was born out of a necessity to quench the thirst of Taylor locals, rather than change the oil in their old Chevrolets. A young man named Randy went to his kinfolk who ran the service station and convinced them that the community might be better served if he converted gas sales into sales of the golden suds, and shortly after, the little beer joint was born. Ever since that day in 1977, when the gas pumps were turned off, that little IceHouse has been offering fixes for the cravings of both locals and those just passing through. The recipes introduced into that kitchen back then, are still favorites today!

Wanted a local burger and that’s exactly what I received. Juicy beef patty, melted thick America cheese, porky bacon between warm soft hamburger buns.

Very friendly waitress.

No matter where you travel and how small the town you pass through your stop at. There always a local burger place to eat that.

Great laid back sports bar! Staff is friendly and the cooks are hilarious! Brought my family here for the first time to enjoy some good American food. This place did not disappoint! Great portion sized food. Food was hot and fresh. Burger tasted like it was cooked on a charcoal grill. Tater tots is a MUST try! We ordered tater tots for the kids. Definitely will order those next time over fries. Fried pickles were a little too salty but they were still good and the portion size can feed four as an appetizer. Great atmosphere with TVs everywhere. I would recommend this place to anyone. Looking forward to coming back to try other things on the menu.

UPDATE**** July 5,2025
Well-this time I was stranded with no way of getting something to eat. I was Doggo-sitting my son’s 4 (YEP 4!!!) dogs Saturday /Sunday and by Sunday, mid afternoon -I was pretty hungry.
My daughter-in-law had gotten a new refrigerator right before they left for vacation so there was barely anything in it. They have a wonderful pantry and I ate a Ramen out of the pantry Saturday night for supper but just couldn’t find anything. I was hungry for in there on Sunday.
Anyway, I was hunting some food to have delivered on Sunday. I had never even ordered takeout from any place in Taylor or Hutto and it took me a while to find something that could accommodate all my needs -but Randy’s Icehouse to the rescue!! The first time I ate there I had my grandsons with me and we all had burgers along with some fries and onion rings we shared and everything was delicious and cooked to order.
Yesterday, I chose a Chicken Fried Steak dinner with a baked potato , a side of mushrooms and a side salad. I enjoyed the CFS once I removed most of the breading (don’t get me wrong. It was nice and crispy-I just wasn’t in the mood for it) it was easy to remove, and the steak itself was cooked properly, there was cream gravy to go over it, and I ate it with my canned Mushrooms on the side. My Baked Potato was on the small side, but it was delicious and all the logical condiments like shredded cheese, sour cream, & butter were all included (in little cups) so I could use what and how much of those I wanted. It also came with a slice of Texas Toast and a Side Salad, which was freshly chopped lettuce with bacon, and croutons, and had the blue cheese dressing I had ordered on the side.
Even without the breading on the meat, I was full before I ever made it to the Texas toast. I focused on the chicken fried steak, the gravy and the baked potato. It was all very good. Not sure why, but I didn’t care for the mushrooms too much , I knew they would be canned, but they had a little bit of a tinny flavor so I ate a couple of those, but then left the rest. The blue cheese dressing was great, not sure if it was homemade, but there were small chunks of blue cheese evident, which I appreciated. Because I had filled up on my steak and potato I only ate about a third of the salad. The only thing I missed was the woman who was our server last time I went with my grandsons -as she was very pleasant and nice to talk to!
I’m very grateful they were open on the Fourth of July weekend and even more grateful that Toast was able to deliver it to me out at my son‘s house-which I consider to be in the boonies -but then a lot of Taylor /Coupland area is!
Looks like this is going to be my go to place if I need some good home cooking out that way!! If you haven’t been it’s worth the drive!!!

This is definitely a hidden gem in the town of Taylor, Texas. My grandsons and I dropped in after their full day of school with athletics afterwards they were ravenous as per the norm.(they are teenage boys).
Upon entry, we went through a small area that leads to a larger open area that has a beautiful old bar, along with many tables and chairs and booths .
There’s also a pool table in a separate room .
All three of us ordered different burgers. When I say this was the best burger I’ve ever had -it really was.!!! Juicy and flavorful! I had the bacon cheeseburger.
The boys were in complete agreement and said their burgers were fantastic .
In fact, as the 13-year-old one was eating his, he kept saying over and over “ this is so good!!”. He had the “Hangover Burger which included jalapenos and a fried egg along with bacon, Swiss cheese and lettuce, tomato, and mayo.
My oldest g-son(15) had the “IceHouse Cheeseburger” which included double cheese-mustard and he added a fried egg. This is definitely one of those bars that has THE BEST BURGERS!!!
It’s worth a trip out to Taylor even if that’s the only thing you go for!!!

Went for lunch on a Friday afternoon. They were short staffed and kept apologizing for the wait but honestly, the wait wasn’t bad, everyone was nice and pleasant, and we had time to burn. I had a mushroom Swiss burger and it was very good, but my fries were pretty cold (I didn’t complain). Wife had steak fingers and tots and she enjoyed both. Give em a try, it’s a pretty laid back place, inexpensive, clean, and good food.

Went here for dinner and to meet up with a friend who was visiting from out of state.
What a nice surprise this place was! Staff was very nice and efficient and the food, oh man was the food amazing!
The Philly cheesesteak was really really good and the onion rings wrfd crisp and hot as they should be with good flavor. My daughter had the chicken tenders tossed in in wing sauce and she said they were amazing. Hubby had a bacon cheeseburger with tater tots and for once had no complaints hahaha. Our guest had the club sandwich with fries which she said was amazing.
We live about 45 minutes away from Randy’s but will absolutely make the drive to eat here again!

I’ve visited a few times and have always been happy with their service and good food!
For anyone who loves to watch sports, this place is a great spot.

The only thing I dislike is their parking lot — it’s too dusty. I have to wash my SUV every time I visit. I hope they consider paving it with concrete; if they do, we’ll definitely visit more often.

Burger was delicious! The only reason i am giving them a 4 star is because bacon, as you can tell, most of it was dark burn! You can taste the burn. I specifically said, No pickles… and guess what it had pickles! I like pickles, just not on my burger! The meat was perfect… nice and juicy lots of flavor. I had to add ketchup where the pickles were. I just don’t like the taste of pickles on my burger! The onion rings were ok, no ranch to go with the onion rings. The other thing was i ordered it to go, no napkins or ketchup or condiments inside the bag. I had to wait until i got to my sis-in-law house to ask her for ketchup and napkins. Just at least one napkins would have been great.

I came here on a random Thursday night a couple of weeks ago and forgot to leave my review of this place so here it is. It’s a cool vibe with people who are there to have a good time. The service was good and the food even better! I under estimated the size of these wings! Not to mention the mozzarella sticks were hella cheese. Brought my wife with me and she liked it too, she too agrees I ordered too much food.
