The Bar at Mueller is one of the best experiences! You would not think a bar at HEB would be great but the atmosphere is fun and welcoming, there are regulars, and specifically Daniella is one of the kindest and most knowledgeable bartenders I’ve met. She is attentive and truly cares about her customers.

My wife and I had a great time here this weekend! Bartenders were great while waiting on the food. Good beer and relaxed atmosphere. We forgot for a bit that we were in a grocery store. I had the burnt ends and sausage links; delish! Good folks and good food; would recommend.

The BBQ, the pizza, the burgers and the Bar Mueller are the best!! The food is great thanks to Marta and Richard who keep tasty and quality at the highest levels! Tori and Marvin always take care of the lunch crowd with superior service and meaningful conversation. The food, atmosphere and service are the best in town without a doubt.

I have heard of HEB BBQ for a long time but never tried before. Stopped by the Mueller HEB and got a 1 meat plate, moist brisket, coleslaw and potato salad. Got a side of cornbread and cobbler. Usually we prefer the bbq from Lockhart but this was as good (or better) and closer. We will definitely be back!

I visited this location and the slaughter location on May 28th. I had very different experiences. Earlier in the day at slaughter I was served by a man that was not very friendly and many items that should have come with my meal did not. But because of this experience I was not going back to slaughter when I realized I needed a little more bbq. So I looked up other locations. I did have a little difficulty finding it but luckily I did. Alex greeted as I almost walked past . He was courteous and explained the ordering process. As I waited for my order a gentleman came up and was having trouble ordering so I helped him. Seeing Alex did not scream my name he made eye contact and asked nicely and quietly if I was".....?" So i could continue helping without making the other customer feel bad. While helping him , I decided I wanted food for myself so ordered. Unfortunately than ran out of what I ordered. Which happens. Alex and his team were amazing, very commutative and courteous. I will absolutely be back!

I haven’t eaten at this one yet, but if it is like the ones that I’ve been to from other locations, like the one over in Hancock center, it should be reasonably good. Unfortunately, this is not a very big restaurant unlike the Hancock location, which is essentially a full-size barbecue restaurant. This one is just a walk up window With some shared seating for the food court.

This place is great. With 5 different “restaurants”, everyone in your group can find the perfect satisfying meal, and still sit together at the bar. You can find something to fill every dietary need, as well. For example, my uncle needed a meal that was low in sodium, another guest wanted smoked turkey plate, and I wanted a cobb salad. What a nice experience.

Delicious BBQ for a good price. Their sides are also very tasty and rival some of the best BBQ joints in town. You can’t go wrong with the Mac and charro beans . Great beer selection and friendly service. I love this neighborhood spot.
