I just moved to the area several months ago and have been exploring local spots. By far this is my favorite! They addressed me by name by my second visit. Food creativity and menu is top notch; as is the atmosphere. (Great daily locally sourced specials that support our local vendors) There is a reason I am here 3x a week when there are 15 other restaurants within a 5 block radius. read more

This was a terrible dining experience. Long wait times, the food was subpar, fries were cold and undercooked, portion sizes were egregiously small. We had to leave and took our dessert to go. The bread pudding was cold and not cooked properly. read more

A&B Burgers - "Bread pudding" - cold and gross - Burgers Near Me - Beverly, Massachusetts

Terrible experience every time we've been here. Service is extremely slow; in a half empty restaurant long waits for every single step of the dining experience. Orders are a screwed up regularly. Burgers are not cooked as requested; toppings and sides get all messed up. If this was one time thing, would not post a negative review. But came here three times over the course of 2 years, and every time it was the same. Others that have visited share similar stories. What a waste of a location; could've been a great neighborhood spot. read more

It had been raining and was cold, damp, and windy. But the doors were up and it was freezing in the restaurant. That and having to wait for someone to come to the front of the house to speak to us should have been my first clues. We ordered a chicken sandwich (no spice, dry chicken, rubbery bun) and pulled pork nachos (where's the pork? stale chips, no pico). The nachos were put under the broiler or in the oven on waxed paper that a good portion of the cheese stuck to. Not even hot sauce helped enhance the flavor of the chicken sandwich. There was a guy sitting towards the back constantly whistling, singing, and talking loudly. I'm hopeful that he wasn't management but he probably was. Skip this one. No one in the restaurant had a clue and didn't really care to make sure the small number of customers were taken care of. read more

Food was great but I literally found a strand of a Brillo pad in my water glass tonight and the manager was like "oh yeah your waiter told me about the little issue, is dessert okay?" 1) At least pretend to care and act sincere 2) You couldn't even take 1 dessert off of the check? We won't be back. read more

3.75/5 Good. A&B Burger offers fantastic, consistent, gourmet burgers. Apart from their burgers, their sides, and their "adult milkshakes" are a must-order. I've eaten at A&B a handful of times and every time I am impressed by their menu. Their burgers are fantastic. They're well seasoned, juicy, and have great combinations. The Maple Bourbon Burger and the Sweet and Salty are my two personal recommendations. The Maple Bourbon Burger has maple glazed bacon and bourbon mustard, and the Sweet and Salty has a great fig jam. The burgers also come with a side of regular or sweet potato fries, in which I always choose the sweet potato fries. Additionally, their sides are fantastic. My friends and I ordered one Korean BBQ wings and had two order it two more times since we wanted more wings. The Korean BBQ wings are some of the best wings I've had period and are a must try. Additionally, for the over 21 crowd, their adult milkshakes are fantastic. They use quality ice cream and great alcohol which pairs really well with their burgers. While the food at A&B is great, they are definitely a pricier restaurant. Additionally, on their busier nights, their service may be a little slow and my food came out lukewarm (every time I've gone for lunch I've never encountered this problem). This may be an outlier as I've only been to dinner once and more frequently go for lunch, but be wary. read more

This place was so delicious! Restaurant itself has an industrial chic vibe with window garage doors that open up when the weather is nice, giving a nice indoor and outdoor feel. Service was great & swift. Peach green tea: a wonderful concoction, refreshing and not too sweet. Served in a cute glass too! Onion rings: not heavily breaded, could actually see the red onion, and well seasoned. A perfect crisp and accompanied by a tasty aioli. Bacon truffle fries: crispy bacon bits, fries that are crisp on the outside and substantial on the inside. The truffle is the perfect amount, not too overpowering. Sweet & salty burger: never had a burger with burrata this definitely converted me! The meat was juicy and tender. The fig jam, bacon, and burrata all paired well. The arugula was a nice fresh touch as well. Overall would definitely come back! read more

I've been twice. Once the wait for our burgers was about 45 minutes. The delivery of food was painfully slow for everyone around us. Seemed the kitchen wasn't managed well. Visited again at lunchtime and the burger was "smashed" but burned on the outside. Since it cost $16+, that's not really acceptable. I won't be going back since there are many other options in the downtown area. read more

Pretty good Service fine Food standard good Ambiance nice I initially wrote a bad review from initial experience but revised read more

Burger good, but bun was a bit dry. Roasted Cauliflower was good and spicy. Bartender was great. Beer waaaay too expensive!! $12 - $16 for a pint can of local IPAs!! Can buy a 4-pack for that price. read more

Poor service! Tried to grab drinks before going to a concert on a Saturday night. Was busy as expected, so we stood behind the bar. Tried to get the bar tenders attention for 7 minutes before walking out and heading down the street. read more

Love it, best onion rings on the planet! BUT, NOT OPEN MONDAYs OR TUESDAYS, contrary to yelps header!! read more

$80 for 2 burgers and some beers... doesn't sit right with me. Good place to watch a game though. If you want a great burger, go to Five guys and save $70 bucks. read more

Comments about timeliness are spot on. We had an hour to grab a burger and I figured we had plenty of time considering a burger takes 10 minutes to make. It ended up taking 30 minutes to get our food and by then we had to inhale it to get out on time. Turkey burger was legit the driest I've ever had and it was missing the sauce it said it came with which only made it worse. My wife for the veggie burger which looked like a bizarre fried patty of yellow mush with no flavor. The fries were very good And the beer was cold so that was a silver lining. My family has officially sworn to not return ever again, sorry A&B. read more

I have been contemplating leaving this review because I know many business are still struggling, but there are just some things that need to be brought to light. Me, my sister, and husband frequented A&B pre-pandemic, and also visited a few times in the last two years. Most times have been decent. Our most recent visit last week unfortunately was not at all good. My sister and I both got old fashioneds- they came out super watery and not at all good (and we've had our fair share). My brother in law got a beer he usually drinks, which he said tasted a bit odd. In total, we ordered the brussel sprouts, cauliflower, beet salad, chicken sandwich and fried pickles. The cauliflower was saturated in oil and not very well seasoned. The Brussels were fine but nothing over the top. Really basic roasted sprouts. Our salad was drenched in dressing, and a very small portion My BIL's sandwich had very little flavor, and needed a good salting. He said he liked the pickles, but they were soggy and tasted very similar to McDonalds pickles. I am sad writing this, and hope to go back in the future when reviews aren't all over the place and they have consistent food and drinks again. read more

First of all, I went to A&B Burgers to watch football at the bar. immediately I was welcomed by the bartender Jasmine who brought me a beer and changed the channel so I could watch FSU. I soon ordered the Nicks BBQ Burger with fries. My meal arrived promptly and it was amazing. Cooked the way I like. The bucket of fries were hot and tasty. All and all the meal was great. Kudos to Shannon the manger who asked how my meal was. Great meal fun atmosphere and my team won read more

Went twice to give it a second shot I know it's tough to find service but seems like most employees here are new and we waited an hour to find out they forgot our drinks and one entree which was incorrect, my gf got glutenized. The gm was nice and concerned so we lied and said no issues. The drinks were premade and expensive. Nice windows tho read more

Had brunch there today. Sat by the open garage door, and it was nice. Lots of moving air and the place was mostly empty so we felt quite safe. Hubby got burger as always, he was happy. Son and his friend both got chicken and waffles. They both felt the 4 waffle squares were an excessive amt of waffles given the 2 small pieces of fried chicken they were given. My friend told me they used to give 3 pieces of chicken. This was a big hit, and quite yummy. Very good, highly recommend it. I split a couple of things with my friend. A cobb salad which was really just ok. The vinaigrette didn't match it, and the salad itself was small, and the lettuce should have been cut up smaller. All in all, a bit disappointing. We also split a Lobster BLT. It is served on the same brioche bun the burger is served on. It was nice that they split the salad and Lobster BLT for us. Quite nice of them. It was ok, and they topped it with large slices of bacon perfectly done. Seems the bun was too much bread for the lobster, it needed something a bit lighter. Also, the lobster salad was runny and it dripped as we ate it. Not sure why, but was a bit disappointing. The taste was quite good though. Not sorry we got it, enjoyed eating every single bite and wouldn't order it again. Got onion strings on the side, which are really quite nice. We also got Korean chicken wings for the table, which are pretty spicy and very nice. We enjoy A&B and it is a favorite of ours. The burgers are a bit much for me, so I prefer to split it and someone and get something else, also. If you like burgers, you would love this place. Well worth it. read more

First time to A&B, food was fantastic! Service was fair, but could have been better. Side note: I'll never understand why restaurants hire a server with the personality of a potted plant but anyway, the food was awesome and decor was great! read more

Years ago this was an amazing restaurant that I really enjoyed, now I do not enjoy it as much. The food is okay. The service was not great. I mean it's still the same place I used to go to, but the food isn't as good, It's alright though. read more

A&B Burgers was once a cherished family eatery for my family. However, the gradual decline over the past six or so years is getting harder to ignore. I appreciate Covid was/has been hard on all businesses, especially the restaurant industry, but it feels like A&B simply hasn't bounced back. Please know I write this review in the spirit of feedback for the owners/management to make the necessary improvements to recapture the magic that once made A&B a standout destination for brunch and dining because we want it to continue to be our family go-to dining spot! The food quality has noticeably declined. The menu has become stagnant with no new dishes to look forward to. My go-to medium rare burger was recently served medium at best, a far cry from its once juicy perfection. Most disappointingly, hygiene standards have dropped. On our last visit, dirty glasses and dishes had to be returned, which is unacceptable. In terms of ambiance, this restaurant also used to offer live music during weekend brunches, creating a unique and enjoyable atmosphere. Now it's just poor music choices set against the backdrop of screaming tv screens which makes it feel like just another bar. A&B was once our family favorite, but the gradual decrease in quality are making it hard to justify returning. Please recapture the atmosphere and quality that you once brought to the table! read more

$3.50 is too much to charge for gluten free bread as a substitute. $1.50 is kind of the reasonable max. I understand food costs are high, but that's just price gouging people with food allergies. read more

Two different visits and extremely satisfied with the food, but this time we were especially pleased with Stephanie V. Although she was extremely busy, she never missed us, and she was attentive and friendly. Come visit A&B and ask for Stephanie V!!!! read more

Great food--one of the best burgers I have ever tasted. After initial difficulty with my order, the manager really stepped up & made sure I was really taken care of. Will definitely recommend this restaurant to all my friends. They really care about their customers read more

Hadn't been in awhile so tried again. Use to love their fried pickles and onion strings! Food was not as good. Also heard the restaurant manager call my waitress a BI*** and heard him use the F bomb several times in the kitchen. No place for that. Will not return. read more

From start to finish our experience was wonderful! The staff were helpful and attentive and the food was delicious. they had something for everybody and it was easily accessible with my wheelchair. Will be coming back! read more

Just went there and got take out. Both my children parm & burger were both burnt, not over cooked, burnt. So bad I did not bother call to tell them, because I would never go back there. Staff was nice but food 0 out of 10. read more

Firsssst of all this place uses REAL candles at their tables! Love it. Ordered the B burger aka the BOMB Burger and like i said ..! For starters I went with the chip and dip and the sweet potato fries and both were delicious. The chip and dip's French onion sauce is made in house which I also like. None of that canned stuff. They don't give you much sauce for the amount of chips though. Along with my B Burger I ordered the fried pickles and those were good too. They weren't over battered like some other places. The ambiance is a good combination that's fancy enough for a date with a new age open bar integration. 4/5 stars. Everything was good but wasn't blown away. Ps. The food comes out in their weird buckets but it's w.e. read more

A&B Burgers - Burgers Near Me - Beverly, Massachusetts

This is the 2nd time I've eaten here. Not much has changed. Let me start by saying the staff and the atmosphere are great. The burgers - their toppings are fresh but honestly they taste exactly like super fresh Wendy's burgers. The same with the fries. No matter how you order the burger cooked, it comes out brown all the way through. No pink in the middle. I am not a fan of this. A burger and fries with a couple of drinks will set you back $30. The Mudslides and Bloody Mary's are good, above average. The first time I came with a guest, we each got a burger and fries, split a mac N cheese appetizer and I had 2 drinks. It came to $100 after the tip. It was crazy. I don't think I'll be back. read more

A&B Burgers - Crazy delicious! But not very strong. - Burgers Near Me - Beverly, Massachusetts

Just okay burgers. They had very little flavor and seasoning. They were greasy as were the brussels sprouts. No hurry to come back for a burger read more

When we saw that A&B was doing takeaway on Fridays we got super excited as we usually love their burgers... what a bummer. Asked for a well done burger, got medium well, which would have been ok for me or my husband but it was for my 2 year old. Not happening. Asked for a medium well, got medium on the edges of patty & progressively got more rare. Asked for med & got straight up medium rare.. Even the wings were off. So disappointed as we really want to help local restaurants out during this pandemic but this was not good by any means. Especially when you drop over $60 for food you do not up eating. Not sure if you this just due to pandemic or if they really need to work on their takeaway game . Hate to say it, but this may have turned us away for good :( *update: Eric from A&B reached out immediately after posting, was very apologetic & wanted to rectify the situation. This was really appreciated & great customer service. read more

Disappointing. Not bad. It's been a while since I felt only sadness after a meal. Didn't have much flavor, 1 of our burgers cooked improperly. Would be fine if we didn't opt for Wagyu. For 30 a burger which is higher than fine dining burger options in Boston, you'd expect they'd have everything down. Even if it was at the 20 price point, still would only be okay. Service was poor, but not the servers fault. It wasn't bad though. Just don't go in with any expectations, and bring a fat wallet if you want to try the "Wagyu". You can use your tears for flavor read more

Definitely one of the best places to eat in Beverly. I had to give 4 instead of 5 stars because of minor errors and I wasn't completely blown away. I ordered the Maple Bourbon Burger with added fried onion strings, I also got extra sauce on the side which was the best decision I've made. The burger was delicious and perfectly cooked but the toppings were minimal and I wanted more sauce. I also really wish they would bring their blue cheese burger back. Korean BBQ wings are also great! Again, it would've been nice to have a blue cheese or other sauce on the side. Roasted Cauliflower and Sriracha Brussels Sprouts were also yummy but the Brussel sprouts could've been less oily and crispier. Overall a 5 star rating for me means that I can't wait to try a place again. I could wait a little while for more A&B but it was really delicious. read more

Server Shea was Great. When I was talking about how overcooked my burger was he offered to bring it back and remake it. But that brings me to my main point. I ordered the burger medium rare and it was basically medium well. Just not what I wanted. read more

This is one of our favorite family spots. The Sunday brunches are great with live music and a delicious menu. The duck hash is one of my favorites. The burgers are always good and the crispy onion strings are a favorite as well. The food is good. However, this review is about more than good food and a friendly staff. Last week, my neurodivergent 7 year son and I came here for lunch. He had a half day at school and burgers are one of his favorite foods and one of the approximately 150 words in his vocabulary that he can say out loud. This place is near his school and always a great option. We ordered our food and were waiting at our booth, sipping on our waters and talking about the music we could hear over the speakers. My 7 year old is a big boy and got excited and leaned on the table. The table tipped in his direction, spilling his water all over his lap and the floor. It was a little bit of a disaster because of the cold that day and the extra needs I had to navigate in regards to my son. The manager that day was amazing and helped us tremendously. I won't share all the details here, but just know how wonderful it is for a mother and her son to be seen. I've had experiences in public where I feel the opposite of seen. I have felt ignored and a bother to deal with because of my son's extra noise, extra sensory processing, extra requests, extra, extra, extra. But today, we were given so much grace and attention and it wasn't just good customer service. It was good human compassion. So 5 stars for the great food and 5 stars for the great people. Thank you A&B! read more

The chicken wings were fatty, but then again...that's kinda like the pot calling the kettle black.

My husband and I had our wedding rehearsal dinner at the Beverly location in July 2021, we welcomed our son in January 2023, and were ready to celebrate his first birthday January 2024, and we knew exactly where to hold the party. We were seeking a casual celebration for our son, family, and friends. Nancy assisted flawlessly in the planning and preparation, Eric and the team guided the day of to execute a comfortable, enjoyable, delicious get together. A&B proved excellence once again. Thank you to your team for the success in celebrating another milestone. read more
