almadenmike Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 There was a small Someburger stand next to the bowling alley on South Main back in the early 50's. It was north of Bill William's and across Main from the Rice campus. I ate many Someburgers there until one made me sick. Never had another. I also ate many luscious Someburgers made at that stand across from Rice when I was an undergrad there. I remember being surprised when it was suddenly torn down, sometime in the late 1960s. I went to inspect ... and saw my first rats ... (!!!) ... a dozenor more milling about amid the debris of their destroyed abode. I nearly fainted ... and felt very thankful that I hadn't, afaik, gotten sick from any of the many burgers I'd eater there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highrise Tower Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Had someone mention this previously unknown location of Someburger. I wanted to post a photo for the thread! Taken from the company's website. You may want to go visit the website as it has photos and addresses of each of their restaurants! https://someburger.com/someburger-history South Main Street (historical location) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucesw Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Okay, Thanks! I remember the S. Shepherd location and the W. Gray location and may have seen the one on Airline but never knew of all the others. I discovered the Baytown location when I was doing research at the Sterling Library and ate there and talked to the owner. Also chatted a couple of times with his brother, the owner of the 11 St. location in the Heights which I ate at many times. They had a history on the Baytown location website which gave a 1955 date so that's where I got that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
