"We went last night for the first time. Their classic burger was the best! My mom and I can't stop talking about how good the burgers were. The drinks too! Gin and tonic and long islands were amazing!! Our only disappointment was no fries. Burgers/ Sandwiches were served with a bag of chips. We still plan to return for more good times but it'd be even better with fries added to the menu.... Oh, and a kids menu! My kid ended up ordering their pizza which was more expensive than my burger. Granted, we took it home as leftovers and still ate it..."

"I’ve lived in Cresson for 4 years but had never been familiar of the area due to being a traveling nurse and being gone often while traveling to other locations for work. I got back to the Cresson area today after a very long drive and just needed a place to chill, have a drink, and eat. I decided to look into the Cresson Wrench since I had never been. It was only 2 minutes from me. What a surprise! Hole in the wall, I was certainly not expecting this place in Cresson TX. Riley was so welcoming and genuinely easy to converse with, I will be coming back to hang somewhere where I can finally feel at home. The burgers are amazing by the way! Thank you Cresson Wrench <3"

"What a hidden gem! 5 stars for food staff and ownership! The place itself is a sight to see. The ribs, potato salad, and bbq sauce were the best I've had in the DFW area."

"Been there 1/2 dozen times since I work nearby, girls are precious & Kaitlyn is a sweetie. Just met Leah other day, during a slow spell we chatted and we connected, what a great personality. Gave $40 tip . Y'all tip these girls good, them $2 tips ain't a gal of gas. Food here is off the hook good , not a big menu like twin peaks,but it's a bar not a restaurant. It's a cool hangout, or there's Sonic around the corner."

"Came here on a Sunday and it wasn’t too busy. This place is a lot of fun. The burgers are really good. I got a 7oz smash burger and it was $13.50. Only bad part is they don’t have fries so they give you bags of chips instead. The beer is pretty cheap here and their glasses as sturdy, considering my friend dropped 2 beers and they didn’t break. They have pool tables and game machines in the back. You need quarters for the pool tables & they don’t have an ATM but they do have a change machine."

"Straightforward menu. Went for the burger, will be back for the burger. It's a simple smash burger. The bacon, jalop, wrapped chicken was good too. They also have hot dogs, chips, some salads. The owner is a great human. I'm from Cresson but havnt lived there in many years. Glad to see this here and busy. Some of the staff members were very loud, but we sat too close to the bar, so that's on us too."
