Health Camp Restaurant is a cherished and historic establishment that has been serving the Waco community since its founding in 1949. Jack Schaevitz, a pioneer in the early fast food industry, established Health Camp as a beloved local institution known for its commitment to offering the finest frozen custard, ice cream, and burgers. The original restaurant on the Waco Traffic Circle featured a small kitchen with a convenient walk-up window, attracting both Wacoans and travelers between Dallas and Austin.
Today, the restaurant proudly maintains its original charm, serving signature burgers, delectable custard, and homemade onion rings on its iconic stainless steel countertops. With its nostalgic walk-up window and walls adorned with photographs and newspapers showcasing local history, Health Camp offers visitors an opportunity to relive cherished memories, immerse themselves in the local community, and be a part of Waco's remarkable history.
