So so place, great restaurant. Only down side to the restaurant is the timings and the wait for a table. Opens at 11am, and if you're early or its not a busy day, you'll be fine. On weekends the wait is up to 45 minutes. Asked for fuel only one time at this FBO, the lineman's attitude sent us away. Flew in again, radios on my students side was not working. I took over the radios as soon as UNICOM told us of that. After landing was approached by elderly gentleman with a serious attitude problem. Enjoyed the food, but these experiences ensured we never went back.

Great FBO and restaurant. We were tied up for the better part of a week visiting family and couldn't recommend 11R more. Jack Hess and his crew were very accommodating, allowing us access to the tarmac to load/unload/load (many times) our plane directly to our car...And the self-service gas was cheap and easy. While waiting out a weather delay, Jack offered advise without being judgmental...Very refreshing. Highly recommended!

Went back to Brenham the other day and experienced absolutely wonderful service. Jack and I had a good laugh as I had showed up without any Grecian Formula in hand... Won't forget to bring it on my next trip. Heartily recommend Jack and the Crew at 11R.

Jack's quick response and explanation was much appreciated, so I phoned Jack Hess this morning to make sure express my appreciation for his response. Wanted to make sure that we were both on the same page and to assure each other that what we both experienced was just an instance of poor/miscommunication on each side. Jack explained that he had been dealing with an urgent problem at the time and was a bit "distracted" by the situation. We both had a laugh, and reminisced about the good old days of aviation. Jack says that the majority of his business are small piston aircraft and that they are his staple customers and are Highly Regarded at his FBO...As opposed to some other FBO's that are downright nasty if you pull up in anything less than a King Air. I appreciate Jack's great attitude and look forward to seeing him again on my next visit to Brenham. I'll even try to remember to bring along some Grecian Formula for the older gent.

I went to the FBO to ask about full service fuel this morning at 0745. Although the posted hours are from 0700 on, nobody was around. Finally an older gentleman emerged from the FBO and got in his golden Chevy pickup and drove over to me. I asked for full service fuel and he said: "WE HAVEN'T PULLED THE TRUCK OUT YET, BUT (Pointing) THERE’S THE SELF SERVE PUMP. IF YOU NEED IT, GET IT...IF YOU DON'T, THEN DON'T!" ~~I couldn't believe my ears! How unbelievably RUDE! So I departed immediately and refueled at another airport. It takes a long time to gain customers and just a few seconds to lose one.
Response from Jack Hess, Southern Flyer
The older gentleman (ouch) arrived at the airport at 7:01 and began checking the runway for foreign debris (The day's take 1 machine screw). The terminal building was entered at 7:06 through the line door. I was distracted by a problem on the east side of the terminal and I failed to unlock the front door. In my 3-year-old gray pick-up that has been used by hundreds as a courtesy vehicle I saw the pilot of an overnight aircraft. I drove over to him to let him know that he didn't have to worry about an overnight fee. He asked about the fuel and I answered as he stated. I assumed he was buying fuel to avoid an overnight charge. I was I thought upbeat, but the words got all screwed up and I never even got the good news out - it just came out that he did not need to buy any if he did not need it. My communication was bad his was nonexistent. Mr. Black was just too mad to talk. I just hate to screw up someone's flight and I certainly did. I am sorry and I will remember this.

On February 22nd, the Southern Flyer was awarded a plaque for being the Best of the Best, by the 100 Dollar Hamburger, for the 4th straight year in a row. That says it all. Congratulations.

Aside from great food, facilities and FBO, Jack and Janet do a great job of managing low fuel prices, and reliable self serve fueling 24/7.

As always the service and food at southern flyer have made Brenham a favorite destination for the Houston area. The burgers and shakes are wonderful, the hospitality extended by Jack & Janet is superb!! Keep up the great job you will need more ramp space at this pace.

I (We) have flown to 11R many, many times over the past 8 years and have NEVER been disappointed with the FBO or the diner. Jack and Janet are always cordial and run a clean, top-notch operation. The mechanics on the field dropped what they were doing to help us with a broken battery lead one time - and then they didn't even want to charge us for their trouble! The pilot's lounge is very nice with all amenities and quiet room. The 50's diner is great...Poodle skirts, jukebox, checkered floor, and all. Be sure to check your weight and balance after eating their chicken fried steak..... You might just be over gross weight! It's a great place to fly to or stop over at. What are you waiting for? All these positive comments can't be all wrong! GO!

My wife and I flew in for lunch and were greeted at the ramp by someone to help us park. Lunch was very good and the restaurant was very busy even at 2:00 on a Sunday. Though the service was a little slow, the wait staff was very friendly and worked very hard. Highly recommended as an en route stop or just for a $100 hamburger!

Stopped in for fuel and food on the way to Critter's Lodge fly-in. I was met at the SS pumps and helped with fueling my 172. The gentleman was going out of his way on a hot afternoon on HOT blacktop to be sure I got what I needed in the quickest time. Meanwhile a friend was also getting fuel in a Cherokee 6 and couldn't restart it. This gentleman may have been the owner (too old to be a ramp rat) and he did everything he could, jumper cables and contacting a mechanic, to help my friend get back in the air. Good fuel prices are a great thing, but, courteous service from someone who really cares is a rare thing. Thanks Southern Flyers.

Flew out for lunch today. Great line service and friendly Poodle Girls at the classic old time soda fountain. Great burgers, nice screened-in dining porch and pleasant view of the little lake. A pleasant stopover!

This is a great stop. The food is excellent. The wait staff is friendly. The food is good and came quickly. They even have lunch portions at a lower price. The self-serve fuel is convenient and reasonably priced. Don't hesitate to make this a stop!

Great airport, I was flying on my first solo x-country. I decided to stop by. The restaurant was already closed, but o'well. They have an amazing pilots lounge. The airport facilities were top notch. Definitely a great place.

We flew in one of those "little planes" and were treated like royalty. Good fuel prices, good ramp service and a top-notch FBO facility. Excellent restaurant with very good burgers and shakes. Brenham is a little small town and doesn't have the big-city amenities a lot of pilots are used to, so be prepared. It's small-town Texas flying at its best! We can't wait to go back.
