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.

Apollo Micro Systems emerges as lowest bidder for defence orders worth Rs 25.12 crore
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on August 21, 2025, 14:27 IST Shares of Apollo Micro Systems Ltd. (AMS) were in focus on Thursday after the company announced that it has emerged as the lowest bidder (L-1) for defence-related orders worth ₹25.12 crore. The Hyderabad-based technology and defence solutions provider said the bids were placed with the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and other defence public sector undertakings (PSUs). The company clarified in its filing that this order is part of the ordinary course of business, as AMS routinely participates in government and PSU tenders. However, the development has drawn attention as it adds fresh momentum to the company's growing order book and reinforces its positioning in India's expanding defence ecosystem. Meanwhile, shares of Apollo Micro Systems were trading 2.2% higher at ₹207.31 on the NSE, up from the previous close of ₹202.83. The stock has traded between ₹200.55 and ₹211.00 so far today, with a market cap of about ₹69,140 crore. The counter has been active, with trading volumes above 4.6 million shares by mid-session. Founded in 1997, Apollo Micro Systems specialises in designing, developing, and manufacturing electronic and electro-mechanical systems used across defence, aerospace, railways, and homeland security. The government's strong push for Atmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliance) in defence manufacturing has created new opportunities for companies like AMS, which have been steadily expanding capabilities in indigenous technologies.

I'll be back in Boston tomorrow, but this morning I'm still writing from Nashville. Some readers have asked me why I keep writing about food but haven't mentioned any music while I'm here in Music City. The answer is simply that my son works as an live-audio engineer in several of the venues downtown, and he took this week off, so the last place he wanted to go was somewhere featuring live music — it's like work for him. Instead, we've visited the Jack Daniel's distillery in Lynchburg, the Uncle Nearest distillery (which I've been writing about), and have eaten hot chicken at Hattie B's. We've also been just chilling. And one of the things my son likes to do is watch a Canadian YouTuber who plays games that are very similar to Wordle. Before I watched, I was aware of just a few games like that, including the guess-the-country game Worldle and the Wordle-on-steroids game Duotrigordle — both of which "NorthernLion" plays on his stream. But there are so many more games. You won't believe it. If you're planning an end-of-August vacation or just looking for some puzzle games, here's a list of new games I've learned about that you can consider. Costcodle — Guess the price of an item at Costco in six tries. Higher Lower — Guess which of two items has more Google searches (it's harder than it sounds). Globle — Like "Worldle," but you guess a mystery country using 'warmer/cooler' guesses on a map. Box Office Game — Guess the top five movies in the US domestic box office for a given weekend. CATfishing — Guess the Wikipedia article from its categories. Framed — Guess a daily movie from six frames/photos. Disorderly — Sort random things like animated movies or celebrity birthdays in order. Angle — Guess the angle in three tries or less. Spellcheck — an audio spelling-bee-style game Raddle — a word-transformation game a word-transformation game Thrice — a guessing game that gives you multiple guesses of a random trivia answer in different categories Food Guessr — Guess the country in which certain food dishes originate Scrandle — Guess which food is more appetizing, as rated by people online. Postscript: Alert reader Nicole wrote to me yesterday in response to my list of irreversible binomials and mentioned a good one — gin and tonic — which was, of course, reversed by Billy Joel in "Piano Man" in the lyric 'There's an old man sittin' next to me / Makin' love to his tonic and gin.' We can call that a 'reversible binomial.'
