Dillon’s “C” Store

Posted by BEVO | Filed under Community, Dining, Whitehouse

We made the trip to Whitehouse one Saturday afternoon to pick up our oldest kiddo, who was participating in an art competition at the local high school.  Since it was around lunchtime, I whipped out my phone to see if there were any Forkfly (Android, Iphone) deals in the area.  Dillon’s “C” Store offered a hamburger, fries, and a drink for $5.99 so we jumped on that opportunity.

Dillon’s “C” Store has all the trappings of your typical convenience store with the addition of a kitchen and a dining area.  We placed our order, filled our own drinks, and took a seat next to the refrigerator full of every flavor of Crush (of Orange Crush fame) imaginable.  The staff is very friendly!  Every customer who enters the store gets a personal greeting and the clientele ranges from young families to dolled-up Real Estate agents taking a break between showings.  After a bit of time to get comfortable, the food arrives piping hot.  The hamburger is homemade-style, loaded with veggies and a generous portion of mayo, mustard or both.  The hamburger patty itself is probably double the size of your generic fast-food variety and the fries are my favorite — crinkle cut!  But my favorite part was the toasted bun…slighty brown on top with a ring of crispy goodness around the edges.

So if you’re passing through Whitehouse, ditch the fast-food for a hamburger that would make Mom proud!
