About Tookie's Burgers
Who are the Tookies?
ell... years ago, before the early 1970s, you could go into a local drug store, sit on a stool at the soda fountain or a table in a very small dining area and order a light meal, ice cream, fountain drink or sometimes even a piece of homemade pie. In addition to really good fresh cooked food, the experience had a local hometown friendly ambience about it, even if that little drug store was located downtown in one of the larger cities. When Tookies was originally founded in 1975 the founder wanted it to have the same feel as the old Tooker Brothers drugstore he remembered from a small town in Texas and that is how he came up with the name. Of course Tookies is not a drug store and there is a lot more dining area than in the old drugstores, but the vintage decor delivers the same Americana nostalgic hometown feel.
Tookies quickly became a favorite eating and gathering destination with locals from Houston to Galveston and the towns in between for 33 years until September 13, 2008 when the Hurricane Ike storm surge deposited 5 feet of Galveston Bay water inside. After major renovation efforts Tookies reopened recapturing that same original vintage decor and hometown ambience but larger and with some added improvements like the updated modern kitchen, a full bar, larger restrooms and a dining patio.
