Out of all the times we had five star tasting meals, I was bummed this time around. I was looking forward to my burger to taste fresh and fulfilling. Everyone has a rough day, I hope that is all this was. I didn't feel great after and I was disappointed. Service is impeccable, quick and the tots were still one of the best. I'll be back albeit it a bit, though. read more

Blazes Burgers - Is this the best burger spot in all of Maine? 861 Main St, Westbrook, ME 04092 If you're a burger lover on the hunt for bold flavors and unique toppings, Blazes Burgers just might be your holy grail. This Westbrook gem is known for its stacked burger menu, and after trying a few of their specialties, I can see why locals are obsessed. We tried three different burgers: The Pesto Burger - A 6 oz fresh patty topped with creamy pesto and your choice of cheese. Pro tip: take the kitchen's advice and add tomato for a refreshing bite that cuts through the richness. As a pesto fanatic, this one hit all the right notes for me--herby, savory, and perfectly messy. Definitely my personal fave. Crack Cheeseburger - The name doesn't lie. This beast comes loaded with grilled onions, bacon, your preferred cheese, and a feisty feta spread that brings just the right kick. Rich, indulgent, and absolutely unforgettable. Black and Blue Burger - Bacon, grilled onions, sweet bourbon sauce, and blue cheese crumbles all on a brioche bun. The sweet-savory combo is magic, and the blue cheese gives it a gourmet edge. The crack sauce deserves its own shoutout--creamy, a little spicy, and totally addictive. Pair any burger with their fries or tots and you've got yourself a seriously satisfying meal. Rating: 8/10 A strong contender for Maine's best burger, no doubt. The menu is creative, the execution solid, and the flavors linger in the best way. Whether you're a pesto person like me or all about the boldness of blue cheese, Blazes has something for you. Is this your go-to burger joint? Got a spot you think tops this? Let me know--I'm always up for a burger adventure! read more

We tried three different burgers and fries. They were all delicious. My favorite was the black and blue. We all liked the pesto burger. If you like a little spice be sure to try the crack burger. It had a little bit of a zip to it. Overall we had a great experience here. Service was great. Friendly place to sit and have a bite. read more

I always drive by and say I should stop and try... well I finally did. My son and I always go out to eat when we get together and he was in the mood for burgers. Wow, this place did not disappoint! The gentleman behind the counter was pleasant and friendly and when he was asked what crack sauce was he not only explained he offered a sample! My son used that sample to dip his tots in. He ordered the Lasagna burger with tots and I got the Caprese with grilled chicken, along with their hand cut fries! Wow, flavor explosion! Plenty is seating, great atmosphere! It is clearly a well loved local spot read more

WOW... this is a legitimate buyer place... I did not expect this in small town Maine, but my mind is blown. The exterior is a bit deceiving because it does not scream awesome burger restaurant. The decor is cool - they definitely support the local youth athletes - the interior is nice, nothing fancy. The staff was incredibly friendly and actually cared what I thought. The buyer was AWESOME. It has to be one of the best burgers in the state. I got the poutine, which I would highly recommend. All in all, Blazes Burgers is a must stop and try... read more

Blazes Burgers - Socal waffle fries and a crack burger! - Burgers Near Me - Westbrook, Maine

You have to love the passion of the owner and how hard they try to please and cater. It seems like they're constantly experimenting and absolutely no issues with special request. Portions of sides are generous. I ordered a big Blais and it was more than filling again if you want to add change things up, they will do so on the spot. Clearly, a local hangout, but they do support the community as you can tell by the walls of the local high school sport teams. It was not disclosed yet, but in the near future, they were very friendly and really wanted to engage with you. They source locally for all their ingredients except for their meat, which I believe they said they import fresh from out west but everything else is local from bread or their cheeses from pineland farm. PS: The have a burger eating contest. I'll mess up what it takes to win, but none the less its a massive loaded cheese burger, bacon, all the fixings with 2 massive side dishes and 1 hour to complete eating it all to be on their wall. 1 winner thus far - not for me, but a nice offering winning a shirt win or loose... read more

Zero complaints, this place was perfection. We were looking for a quick lunch last week and we were so glad! This was a humble and cozy restaurant where we were promptly greeted with a smile. My partner got the Crack Burger and I got the Breakfast Burger. We had the option to get fries or tater tots, we both opted for tots. For burgers and tots, the bill was about $30 which was an amazing deal. We sat down at a table and got our meals in a reasonable amount of time. Both burgers were fresh, huge, and loaded with delicious bacon and cheese. The tots were perfectly crispy as well! It's safe to say these burgers were devoured in no time. The kind man who took our order also took the time to check in on us and made sure we were doing well. We aren't local to Westbrook or New England, but I can promise you that we will be back! This place was nothing short of wonderful. read more

I just want to add that I am continuing to work my way through this VERY extensive menu. I have yet to be able to eat a whole burger - they are just so large and generous with the toppings!! And - still my favorite place to get fried cheese curds! Best deal around. read more

Went to Blazes in the newest location and was really impressed. The owner is in the shop and very personable and approachable. We got the crack chicken burger with was so good and so big I could not eat the whole thing. Loved the toppings and a gluten free bun option is a reasonable price . The side of onion ring among some of the best I have had . John's burger with teriyaki and pineapple was a nice change from the usual burger. The best though was the baked potato French fries these are a meal in themselves tons of crispy bacon sour cream, so delicious. The staff was really nice as well. Definitely will return for more fries and O rings very soon . read more

Everything was delicious! This place is homemade goodness. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The vibe is chill and I will definitely be coming back.

We were traveling through the Portland area on our way to NH and we had the good fortune to choose Blazes for a quick dinner for our family. The operators were fantastically friendly and accommodating. The food was amazing. I'm not a fries guy, but the hand cut fries were so good. I got the Cowboy burger which was out of this world good. My family got basic cheeseburgers and they were so good. The sweet potato tots were interesting but good! If we ever find ourselves around Portland again, we will be back! read more

The burgers here are great! I love all of the options and how different these burgers are from others in the area.

Smaller place, but good food and great people working there. Their burgers are superior to FiveGuys, for cheaper the price. I took my family there, everyone had cheeseburgers- my daughter had the hot dog. No complaints from anyone. The fries were nice and crispy, seasoned well- not limp at all. Overall, I would definitely come back when in the area. read more

This guy is an animal. My first time at the place and we were the first in the door. He greeted us from the counter and was super friendly, funny, and relatable. He warmly introduced the menu and how he does stuff. We came in on the first day of November and he just started his Thanksgiving menu which included an amazing turkey burger with stuffing, homemade mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce on a brioche bun. We got it with tots and gravy. We also got the deep fried stuffing balls. It was so damn good. He stopped by a couple times to check on us and chat. Really solid guy. He stopped by one last time and brought us a deep fried apple pie and churro with caramel dipping sauce. We had already paid by this point. He gave us dessert on the house! Few people and places are like this, he's a one off kind guy and this is definitely a place to go to, often. read more

Wow is all I have to say! Such an amazing burger. I got the Breakfast Burger and it was incredible and the prices are also great. I added the poutine on my tater tots and it had cheese curds on it (my favorite) and so many of them! You can get all kind of spices for your fries or tots. We got take out but you can order there and they have quite a few tables to eat at. They have beer and other canned beverages but no alcohol. Sooo many different burger options to try! Must stop if you like burgers! read more

Stop #2 for the Portland Food Fights Lord of the Wings challenge. We had never been here as we are not in Westbrook often but I had always heard about the burgers and was excited to try. They have a large menu with lots of near add on's so maybe check menu online ahead of time. I wish I had but the staff was super helpful in answering ny questions and making suggestions and recommendations. Wings come in a lot of flavors, and you can get them covered in sauce or seasonings. We tried garlic teriyaki and sweet Thai chili. Flavors were yummy. Wings come with fries or tots ( which you can also add various dry seasonings). They won the Portland Food Fights burger challenge in 2021 and have always been known for their burgers so of course I had to try one and split. We got the Crack Cheeseburger which had grilled onions and chopped bacon mix, your choice of cheese and a feisty feta spread. It was awesome! I think you can also get a chicken version as well. I had to try the poutine tots... the photos looked awesome. Giant cheese curds and gravy.....yummmm. We definitely left with leftovers and will be back. I thought they had multiple locations but this is the only one. read more

It all starts with the service and the people - they are fast, efficient and friendly - from the owner to each of the staff members. The menu - it's every single thing I want from a "fast food" comfort perspective. I mean, they have poutine and tater tots...and so much more. This place has some of the most hearty delicious burgers around. They are so filling that halfway through I feel like I'm in an eating competition pushing through each bite, because there is no way, I want to save this for another day. When I plan to eat here, it's usually my one meal of the day - which also means - BREAKFAST BURGER!! Woo Hoo! The highlights and typical go-tos for us...the Cheeseburger, the Breakfast Burger, Tater Tots, Potato Shreds and the Thai Chili Wings. The prices are super reasonable - and it's really a steal when you think about the quality and quantity of food you are getting. There is convenient online ordering - I believe you can also order delivery within a certain distance. You can also call ahead - but don't be surprised if they don't pick up right away, as they are busy serving and filling customer orders in person. It's not a big location so you may miss it driving by. There's not a lot of seating on the inside, especially if you are with a big group. There are some tables outside. For me this is an excellent To-Go location. Parallel street parking - usually always a spot to be found on the same block/side of the street where the building is located. I love how much this business is part of the community - doing fundraisers constantly and highlighting things happening in the community. That's a big differentiator on "how" they approach customer and community service. Well Done Blazes Owners and Team! You are some of the best out there. We continue to be Blazes Fans! read more

Fried Cheese Curd!!!! Is this what heaven is like!! We were pleasantly surprised to find this restaurant driving down Main St in Westbrook. We found a parking space without any problem out back. There is a front entrance as well as a back entrance which makes it convenient when parking out back. There were posters on the walls supporting local events, a huge plus!! The staff was extremely friendly and the burgers and Fried Cheese Curd was perfect!! read more

Had a great meal here with my mom and niece. The owner was warm and friendly and we chatted about the spicy burger which was super tasty. He laughed and said that was the one burger on his menu he doesn't eat because he can't do spicy. As a chile-head, the fresh habaneros weren't particularly spicy for me, but it was a very nicely crafted burger. The tots were outstanding and when my niece told him she ordered fries but got tots, he apologized profusely and brought her some piping hot fries in just a few minutes. Great neighborhood joint I would recommend to anyone. read more

FOOD EXCELLENT. Fresh meat. homemade french fries. fried cheese curds. Small place, owner fun. very reasonable price.

Mmmmmmmm Blaze's. This is the most friendly, affordable, DELICIOUS spot for fast casual food. Everything I've had here has been absolutely amazing. They offer several vegetarian options- hello Beyond Burger! And their cheese curds are simply out of this world. Amazing service, a clean restaurant, seamless takeout, and just about the best dang food you can find in Westbrook. 10/10 recommend read more

Absolutely the Best Burger in Southern Maine. Have tried them all in the last 10 years and there's nothing that comes close. cooked perfectly to order. The Owner always comes out from the kitchen to ask if everything is to our liking. 5 ***** all day long. read more

Ok so first thing is first, I have frequented many burger joints in my lifetime and they all seem very similar after a while but this one stands out. It isn't the aesthetics on the outside or location itself but rather the great burgers that they serve. The service is always welcoming and attentive and super friendly and the food is to die for. The burgers that we purchased was for our team at work and we picked it up for takeout and there were a couple of things that stood out to me. There were a couple of picky eaters as we placed the order and their special requests were met with flying colors including cooking temps of the burgers that were ordered. The food was fresh and the buns were toasted to perfection. If you are driving downtown Westbrook and see this place, it might not draw you in, but if you go, I promise you will be back here again. read more

If you want the best all American style burger in the State of Maine get yourself to Blazes. My family loves this place. Of course, everything is better if you dine in rather than have it delivered or pick it up but it's still very good at home too. Get your order in early because this place is so popular that orders come in fast and furiously. Owner Alex and his friendly staff crank out the orders at top speed but always focus on quality over mass production. The fries are great but I prefer the tater tots with salt and vinegar. When I'm being more careful with calorie counts the grilled chicken selections never disappoint. read more
