Much like the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, we need to remember one rule at Haystack Burgers & Barley in Dallas: Always carry a towel. I, myself made this mistake, of not grabbing one of the insanely large napkins as I made my way to my table outside and believe me, the decision was regretted. Never the less, the review was done!
So, when I went to Haystack, it was a very open, and brightly lit space which seemed refreshing in the light of their farm-themed menus. I was able to place my order at the counter within minutes of arrival and I ordered the Escabeche Burger and the Kennebek Fries.
These fries were perfect fries. Not mushy, but fluffy insides with a crisp outer shell created from the frying process. The Kennebek seasoning hit the spot!
The Escabeche Burger was wonderful, it wasn’t necessarily the largest burger I have ever eaten, but it does rank among some of the bigger burgers in the area. It was a thick, juicy patty with decent sear. The bacon didn’t destroy my teeth or pull the sandwich apart and the jalapeños and onions really played their part in a wonderful mingling of flavors. I have to say that these are some of the best ingredients I’ve tasted and each item on this sandwich had an extremely loud flavor behind it, nothing was lost on my tongue as I ate it.
Overall, if you’re looking for an extremely satisfying burger with fresh, explosive ingredients, give Haystack a try. They definitely use top-notch combinations and don’t forget the rule, always carry a towel! 5/5

Read moreI’ve only ordered food through third party delivery and never actually been, so let me just be clear on that. But I’m still giving 5 stars across the board because the burger is amazing! I’ve ordered twice in less than a week. It’s the kind of burger that makes you raise your eyebrows on the first bite. The fries are a little less-than by the time they get to you on delivery, but they were still pretty damn good and the seasoning is nice. The fried pickles were decent, nice breading and the spicy ranch was great. They even do half fries and half fried pickles, I love stuff that caters to my indecisive nature. They also send the cold toppings separate for deliveries, which is a nice touch and I appreciated the thoughtfulness. I’m not sure if this is my kind of place to go hang out, but the food is good enough to make me want to find out.
My only request for them would be to make it able to substitute toast for the bun on the delivery app. But that’s just a wishlist type thing, the bun is...
Read moreA friend told me about Haystack Burgers and Barley. This place is really great. Burgers are always fresh and full of flavor as well as juicy as a burger can be. Ingredients are always fresh and crispy. The doping sauces are just amazing. A little bit spicy but just enough kick to make your taste buds go crazy. The fries. The fried pickles are amazing, crunchy, and well seasoned. You can have them with the dipping sauces or just plain they're so good. Staff is great, very helpful & friendly. Had a little trouble ordering but the cashier was amazing he reccomend a couple burgers. Which we did ended up getting! He did not disappoint with the recommendations. Had about 7-9 different kinds or beers all which were small batch and small business breweries around the metroplex. Great place to get your burger with the family. Definitely...
