Brandy, Lily and Zeek! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Scarfed down the olive burger, patty melt, meatballs, farmer fries, and beet deviled eggs within a quick 45 minutes. These three were by far friendly and great company, they helped us decide on what to eat and also shared some gems with us about the space. We greatly appreciate their care! To describe the olive burger - yum it was so good and lightly crafted with so much flavor! The patty melt was a good combination of melt, meat and carmalized onions. Our favorite favorite had to be the meatballs. The way they did it was incredible. It’s base was a soft mashed potato cauliflower, topped with meatballs and idk what that was but pun cheese not sure what that is but man oh man was it so good on its own and with the meatballs. I was scraping my bowl lol 😂 The picked deviled eggs were a good spin on deviled eggs, the were not stingy with the filling at all. It was so good. Lastly was the fries. They were really good fries with light parmesan cheese and parsley. No complaints from me. Even the beer was good selection. And the space is festive. Top tier yum here.
Truly phenomenal place. Great casual vibe. Fantastic flavors and juicy unique burgers. Great service. Outdoor dog friendly patio. What is there not to love here? 5 stars all the way. I accidentally pressed 4 the first time - this place is a TEN out of 5.
The atmosphere is so cute. Reminded me a little of a place in NY called the Trailer Park. The Spam fries were good. Would definitely recommend those but my burger was the blandest burger I’ve ever had in my life. No flavor whatsoever. I’m guessing they don’t season their meat. Maybe I’ll try again with a different burger. I did the build your own. Service was ok. Might comeback. I’m undecided.
Interesting little spot, with old school and new school feel. Service was great. Their menu had a lot of different items, a lot of unique burgers. I had the Olive Burger featuring Olive Mayonnaise. It was very tasty, and their burgers were the perfect size. I could actually eat them. They weren't stacked 3 feet high. The cheese fries were also delicious. Only flaw, they didn't have a soda fountain, so no free refills on sodas.
So this is the guy that made our drinks cool vibe, incredible mustache, awesome bartender. We loved our drinks. Food was good atmosphere was great. But our server, her name was Drea. I think that's how you spell. It had no personality, very dry humor I think she said 4 words, I had to go inside to get my bill paid for because she never returned. She had a cool tattoo. That's the only thing, cool. Poor thing. I wonder if she had something going on in her personal life if so, she needs to decipher home from work...... Because her service made us feel very sour. We would return in a heartbeat for the food and atmosphere. But would definitely request not to have the same server. She was not worth one star on this review. Hate to badmouth anybody but I shoot straight. Thanks again Cook's burger bar for the good food and the great drinks talk to your server. She needs a lesson in hospitality.
