History
Established in 1955.
Long before Someburger arrived in Baytown, two University of Texas graduates had opened a chain of burger stands called «Somewhere» in the Austin area. The name was inspired by the way the men used to decide where to go to eat during their college days. «Where do you want to eat?» one would ask. «I don’t know… Somewhere,» the other would reply. Bags from Somewhere bore the phrase, «I came from Somewhere full of Someburgers.» Eventually, all but the word «Someburger» was dropped and Someburger was born.
The chain had established several Texas locations when it started going out of business. In the mid-1950’s Otha’s father bought the nine Houston, Galveston and Baytown locations. Currently, only two remain — Baytown, owned by Otha, and the Heights, owned by his brother, Don.
Before moving to our present location in 1965, Someburger was a small walk-up stand located on Market Street. Though the building appearance has changed, the food has remained the same.

Business Owner
Otha’s father bought Someburger in the mid-1950’s. Otha took over operations in 1965 and began managing the Baytown location in 1987 after Joe Longshore, the manager for 18 years, left due to health issues.
Otha now runs the business with the help of his wife Karen, and continues to cook for our customers when onsite.
