Where to start? The burger is so delicious, hand cut fries, crispy delicious onion rings. The sweet delicious milkshake. It’s been awhile since I’ve had a buyer this good. Shame that I don’t live closer.

Burgers hold up to their myth. Best tasting burgers Ive had in Texas.Friendly staff member. I forgot to take a picture of the burger and grilled cheese...it was SO good. I highly recommend this joint. They did over a vegan burger- Beyond meat version-- did not try.

I got the double bacon jalapeño cheeseburger with tator tots and a strawberry malt. The malt I didn’t get a picture of because that quickly bring that out to you first so you can enjoy while you wait! I firmly believe in dessert first because you never know when Christ is coming back! I love the atmosphere which is a very old school vibe. The quality of the food was great. Definitely was not the over processed normal fast food joints. The service was quick and very friendly. Quick to accommodate! I came back a second time the same day to get my boyfriend a take out for his lunch (night shift). I most definitely recommend!

Love this place. Best burger I have had in a long time!!! Looks like an old time Bürger joint (think Varsity in Atlanta but much smaller). Will be going back!

Quaint cute little local diner. Always great and fresh hamburgers, the best milkshakes, fries or onion rings served with a smile. Always clean and usually busy but it was not when we went this evening. Was nice to get in and have a choice of tables. There’s nothing on the menu that isn’t delicious and it’s something soothing about enjoying your food pretty much prepared right in front of you when you’re at the counter. Definitely recommended and and a frequent stop for my family.

Built in 1949 by successful food cart operators at the old James Connally Air Force base now owned by TSTC and leased by L3Harris. This burger joint is one of the best in town. Their buns are expertly toasted and soft divided by quality 100% ground angus chuck patties!

Health Camp – A Waco Institution Old-School Charm, Big-Time Flavor Health Camp has been holding down the fort on Waco’s Circle for decades, serving up nostalgia with a side of crispy onion rings and thick shakes. It’s the kind of place where the griddle’s been seasoned by time, and the menu stays simple because, well—why mess with perfection? The Burger: Smash-Style Satisfaction The cheeseburger here leans into that classic smash burger aesthetic—100% Angus ground chuck, seared just right to give it that crispy outer edge while staying juicy inside. No gimmicks, just beef done right. Mustard, onions, cheese, lettuce, pickles, and tomato—all stacked onto a perfectly toasted bun. The mustard gives it that Texas tang, cutting through the richness, while the crisp veggies bring balance. At nine bucks, you’re paying a little extra, but you’re also getting a burger with real beefy character. Onion Rings: Golden Crunch Perfection Skip the fries—this is an onion ring kind of place. They come out thick-cut and fried to an ideal crunch, the batter light but substantial. No limp, greasy afterthoughts here. These rings are the real deal, seasoned just enough to keep you reaching for the next one. Banana Pudding Shake: Southern Sweetness in a Cup Now, let’s talk about that shake. If you love banana pudding, this one’s a winner. It’s got that rich banana flavor, the kind that doesn’t taste artificial but instead reminds you of a homemade dessert. The real magic? The vanilla wafer crumbs dusted on top, with a few surprise wafers hidden inside, giving it that classic banana pudding texture. Cold, creamy, and just the right amount of thick—this one’s a must. Final Verdict Health Camp is more than just a burger joint—it’s a Waco staple, a slice of Texas history on a buttered bun. You’ll pay a little extra for the nostalgia, but you’ll also leave satisfied, knowing that places like this still exist. Whether you’re craving a classic burger, crispy onion rings, or a shake that tastes like dessert straight from grandma’s kitchen, Health Camp delivers.

Stumbling upon this place was a great surprise. The classic-style hamburgers, complemented by great music from various eras, create a fantastic atmosphere. The burger's high-quality meat was tasty and natural, with cheese that melted perfectly. The double health burger was simply fantastic—one of the best I’ve had in a long time. You get a great value for your money as well. I'm so glad I discovered it by chance!

I was craving a great burger from a local joint and knew there was no place better than Health Camp Burgers and Shakes! They’ve been around for quite some time and you know the quality you’ll get here. You have to get a shake; there are many options. I went with a root beer shake and it was delicious.

My wife and I ate here for dinner. The burgers, onion rings and fries were hot and delicious! The best burger I have ever had. The employees and the overall vibe were cool. Of course we had milkshakes for desert and they were very tasty too! Highly recommend for hot fresh yummy food!

Great burger, juicy and full of flavor. The onion rings were awesome we ordered some more after we ate. The shakes are just thick enough to eat them with a spoon but can still drink them with a straw. Try the strawberry cheesecake snake goes perfect with the burger. Old school vibe with a nice staff.

Staple in Waco! Old fashion burgers and fries, nothing healthy about it. Cheap and simple.

Delicious!!! One of the best burgers I've ever had and the costumer service 10/10. We also tried the shakes and icecream cones also a 10/10 we will definitely be coming back .

What a great old fashioned burger joint! Burgers are really good but the ice cream and milk shakes make this place worth the 1 hour drive to get there.

Stopped by for an ice cream treat. I got a chocolate peanut butter shake. My daughter has the strawberry cheesecake. Both were great, but the strawberry, oh sooo good. We were waited on at the wind…

What a great experience. This cute little small burger place out by a huge roundabout. Excellent tasty burgers and amazing shakes! We’ll never forget eating here. They also sell merch! Ask them.

Great burgers and ice cream. Very old school type of burger joint. There is nothing "Health" about it.

Stopped in for a sweet treat and ordered a peanut butter shake. They use real, crunch peanut butter and mix it in with the ice cream. This was the best peanut butter shake I've ever had!

I see a lot of negative reviews for this establishment. It is not a 5 Star restaurant, it's a diner. As a diner, I'll give them a positive review. Place was clean, staff was properly masked. What a…

It's a cool retro historic location and it's basically what you'd expect. Shake was excellent. Onion rings were average (I like Sonic better). Burgers were good but very thin patties. Flavor was good but if prefer a thicker patty more moist. Staff was friendly. My critique doesn't mean I wouldn't go back, I will.

Super cheap, basic burgers, a little bit vintage looking place! The milkshakes are pretty good too! A nice, greasy burger.

Wanted to love this place after seeing all the great reviews. parking is a mess, which I won't hold against them because they have Magnolia Table and one other restaurant next door. However the wai…

I found it strange that I had to order my meal standing outside in the heat and then enter the restaurant to receive and eat. The corny dogs and fries were average. We will not return.

Service was great, and the place was cool, my biggest issues were the place is too tiny. even with 4 people in there I saw, it felt crammed having to stay out of the way and the food was EXTREMELY over priced in my opinion. 11 dollars for a double cheese burger the same size as whataburger and nothing included, it was another 3 dollars for fries and I didnt even get a drink. the burger was decent, though the "special sauce" they put on it was drowning it and I could still barely taste it, the fries remind me of long john silvers with alittle less flavor, and I ended up getting a 6 dollar 16 ounce smores shake and was underwhelmed to figure out it was literally ice cream with some torani smores flavor mixed in and nothing else, very disappointing, spent 23 bucks and wasn't very satisfied, will be the last time I go unless prices go down and even then, there's alot id choose before it

I have always loved Health Camp.. It’s been a long time since I came here. I just left a visitation service for my daughters best friend who passed away and was right here and really wanted some co…

Hadn't been in years. I was excited to get one of their unique shakes. Ordered an oreo, chocolate and a peach shake. Get back to the car and we have two chocolate and an oreo, no peach., and the order was missing the whip cream. Took it back in to let the girl at the counter know. She immediately was rude to me like I did some bait and switch to get free stuff. Made me go take everyones shake back to her to prove I wasn't a liar. And low and behold, two chocolate. She threw it in the trash and made my peach shake and was rude about it the whole time like I had done something wrong. She wasn't busy. No one was even there when we pulled up for just shakes. So how does she not know she didn't make a peach shake. Young light colored girl with long black hair in pigtails Use to be a nice place to go. I always loved all their unique flavors. Don't even want to go back. Horrible person.

We had an order that was messed up with doordash. I called Health Camp to advise we didnt get our entire order and they put management on the phone who pretty much told me it wasnt their problem and to get with doordash. She hung up on me and sounded like a teenager. I have never been so disgusted in my life. Husband will be talking with owner as instead of making it right or talking about it she just wanted to get off the phone. Food was cold and gross.
