HBJ: Bun B’s Trill Burgers opens 2nd standalone location in Houston area

Trill Burgers, the popular smash burger chain co-owned by Houston rapper Bun B, officially has a second brick-and-mortar location.

The new Spring restaurant, at 6810 Louetta Road in the unincorporated Klein area north of Houston, opened April 25. The company confirmed that location, formerly a Dairy Queen, last November.

Jonathan Aron of Houston-based Hunington Properties secured the location for Trill Burgers, and Houston-based Construction Concepts & Design handled the design and build-out.

The design features Trill’s signature black-and-yellow color palette. Prominent design components include neon signage, including the “Keep It Trill” phrase; warm wood elements; and colorful murals by Houston graphic artist Todd Louis.

The 3,023-square-foot restaurant seats 76 guests inside and 32 on the patio.

Trill Burgers’ new location will continue to offer fan favorites, such as the OG Burger – named “Best Burger in America” by Good Morning America in 2022 – the Vegan OG Burger and more. Additionally, Trill Lemonade makes its in-store debut in Spring after premiering at the 2025 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. The fresh-squeezed lemonade comes in classic and strawberry versions as well as blended with iced tea for an Arnold Palmer option. Coca-Cola is the new fountain drink provider for Trill Burgers.

“The support our community continues to show has been nothing short of incredible,” Bun B — whose real name is Bernard Freeman — said in an April 25 press release. “We’re so grateful for this city, and we’re excited to expand to the north side of Houston. To our new neighbors and visitors in Spring, we’re thrilled to be joining your community. We hope to see y’all at Trill Burgers very soon.”

Led by co-founders Bun B, Andy Nguyen and Nick Scurfield with executive chefs Mike Pham and Fernando Valladares, Trill Burgers launched in 2021 with a series of pop-ups, including one at City Hall in September 2022 that drew 2,000 customers. Its first brick-and-mortar location opened in a former James Coney Island building at 3607 S. Shepherd Drive, at Richmond Avenue, in June 2023 and immediately attracted long lines.

The concept also has added outposts at NRG Stadium, Shell Energy Stadium and TDECU Stadium.

Trill Burgers also has participated in festivals such as Coachella, Rolling Loud, Rock the Bells and Something in the Water as well as the Chris Shepherd-spearheaded Southern Smoke Festival. The concept also sold thousands of burgers during the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo for the past several years.

Next up, Trill Burgers plans to open locations in Fort Bend Town Center in Missouri City as well as on Westheimer west of the Galleria later this year.

Trill Burgers’ Spring restaurant will be open daily from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., with the drive-thru open until midnight. Trill Burgers also extended its partnership with DoorDash as its exclusive third-party provider for delivery and pickup orders.
