Cool place. Good burgers (though not quite Blue Sky good), cold beer, cool atmosphere, and some nice looking waitresses in short shorts.

Man, I remember when that was Chelsea Street Pub. Many years ago...

Boondocks "Boonie Burger"
Approaching the Boondocks restaurant - I noticed that this place was unlike any other I had visited. Number 1 - there were no windows that I could see anywhere on the building. Upon entering Boondocks, this place definitely had the look and feel of a certified burger joint though. Nothing fancy - no frilly junk. But enough with the atmosphere talk... I came here for one thing and one thing only... I wanted to meet this Boonie Burger I have been hearing so much about. Lo and behold when the Boonie landed on my table - I knew the multi hour trip to Amarillo from Houston was worth it.. WOW!!! This is how I see the Boonie Burger ranking #1 in the TexasBurgerGuy categories:

Oh Amarillo ---- after all these years my heart still cries out for you!

I remember when Crystal's Confectionary was around the corner.

Agree on Hummers. Nice sports bar and best fried zucchini ever.

It has been a long time, but we used to go to Crystal Confectionary alot when we would go to amarillo.

Also agree with Hummer's. Used to get a burger and a couple of dos xx lagers, good food.
