Pros: right off the Davis T Stop, great atmosphere, huge selections of burgers (and very thick patties), friendly service, dog friendly patio seating, and nice big and fresh salads! Cons: tables were a little close together and wedge fries weren't crispy enough. Overall, we had a good experience at this location and will come back and try more selections. We had the All-American, the Inferno, and the Artery Clogger. read more

Fatness. That is the word I think I'll use..Happy fatness is more of what I mean. I follow BBC on Instagram and once we arrived in Boston it was the first place we ate, no joke. Take a look at their page for the juiciest, MEATIEST (is that a word?), and mouth watering monsters they call burgers. The boyfriend and I split one so that we could save room for the milkshakes. These are also no easy feat. We decided to get the peanut butter with banana and chocolate and it was gorgeously rimmed with fried banana slices and creamy peanut butter. The location is great because it is in walking distance to the shops, a theater and other bars to walk off all the carbs you have just eaten. I don't think I have a single complaint about this place. read more

Yasssss this place is so good. My bf and I have been looking for a fun burger spot since we moved to LA to Boston. We've been disappointed in the scene here but this spot rocks!!! Deff will be back. Great service and super sweet staff. Everyone seems happy and genuine which is the best because if we become regulars we don't want any weird awkwardness on the one day we step out of Azeroth. Jk but seriously we love this place. Tried Vermont burger and it was the best. BF got the mac and cheese one which I stole a bite of and it was also good. Just know it's a lot of food. Got the fries with chowder. Only improvement I would make is to either do more chowder or add a ramekin on the side if your intention is prevent sauggy fries. Also, sign up for rewards program. I love me a good stamp card. #burgergoals read more

Terrible customer service - food was 45 minutes later than quoted for delivery and when I called to check on it the girl said she realized she didn't give the delivery driver the shakes we ordered. She said it was due to the machine not working but then asked if I wanted to pick them up. So which is it you screwed up the order or the machine is broken? I don't appreciate being lied to. No wonder the reviews are so terrible everything was cold and we didn't get 1/2 our order. The food is good at other Boston burgers and we've ordered from Cambridge no problem but this was pretty terrible and I can't see ever going back there which is a shame because I do love the menu. read more

Came here with 3 other dudes between class around 5 to get the insanely cheap 420 burger deal. Obviously the burger was amazing and delicious, but also the service was quick and efficient!!! Needed to eat and leave to make the class at 6pm and I was able to!!! Definitely recommend this 420 deal it's a steal read more

First time I went here: 3 stars, portions were a bit too big, food was good, but I felt a bit sick from eating so much. Second time I went here after a sess: Oh man, 5 stars, this is just the right amount of food, who would ever dare give this place a 3. Average: Yeah I guess about 4 stars. read more

Came for a late lunch, had lots of recommendations for this place. Great weather with great atmosphere and open seating by the window was great. Grabbed a few brews on tap. Food was really good, we had the sampler and the chicken bomb sandwich, sadly we did not try the burgers but forgive me! (I don't eat Beef) I would have preferred fries instead of the potato chips, that's not an option. Side were either coleslaw or baked beans. The service could be better. The shakes and the fries looked amazing from the people sitting next to us. read more

Small little chain restaurant located in Boston, the particular one I went to was located in Somerville. The options of burgers are phenomenal and essentially endless since you can opt to create your own. I got the killer bee; which was a stack of fried onion rings glazed in bbq, stacked like a bee hive on a burger with cheese and the patty. Definitely on the sweet, tangy side if that's what you're looking for! Got the s'more than you can handle frap; wasn't as thick as I thought it'd be. Tasted more like cold chocolate milk than an actual frap. Overall the presentation was really nice though. Summary: Would recommend if you're a burger person for sure! Pros: Variety of burger options Cons: Extremely tight and small space read more

Definitely a cramped space but great service and great food! I went on a Sunday and parking was a breeze at a nearby lot. They had their windows open and the airflow was great for covid concerns. All staff kept their masks on properly. I was worried about the wait time per other reviews but we received our orders in a very reasonable time. I went as a date and I must say I do not recommend this for families or large groups, it's definitely a tight squeeze all around. Regardless I had a great time! We got the Foxtrot and 420 and a side of fries. + drinks and 1 shake it came to about $80 pre-tip. read more

The Mac Attack was more than I could eat and, disappointingly, looked better than it tasted. The layer of mac & cheese was burned on the bottom which significantly diminished its flavor and that of the burger overall. Service by Krystell was friendly and appropriately attentive. Food was delivered hot and relatively quickly (10-15 minutes). The bun was tasty and the bacon, thick and flavorful. Burger with chips, soft drink & tip was $20.43...that's very pricey, at least back in Texas. read more

Eh... I'm not sure what the hype over this place is, but it honestly isn't very good. The wait times can be long, but we got rather lucky on a Sunday night with a less than 10 minute wait. We ordered Fried Mac n Cheese Bites, a Nutella Milkshake, and I got an Alpine Burger. Everything just tasted either salty or greasy, and the milkshake was just overly sweet to the point where I could only manage a few sips before not drinking anymore. I will say the chips were pretty good that came with the burger, but other than that, it was honestly just so disappointing. I probably won't be back - Shake Shack honestly tasted better than this place. read more

This place really fills up on weekend nights! It's a small place so you can leave your name and number and they text you when your table is ready so you can wander Davis square while you wait. The burgers are really creative and impossibly filling. They also leave me feeling super heavy and lethargic after - but anything is worth for good food I guess lol. I got the 420 which has literally every fried food imaginable on it. My friend got the Vermonter which had fried apples in it which was super new but still tasty. We were too full for frappes but they looked impressive. read more

Really good service and food. I ordered the pulled pork Mac and cheese and it was really good the only downside was that I was sitting by a window and it was cold but the ambiance was really good. If you like 2000s music go there. read more

I like this place a lot. Now that I think of it, I don't come here as much as I would imagine I would, especially because I really like Davis and come to this area a lot. The burgers here are really good. There's a ton of choice, and they make the choice really difficult because every burger description sounds amazing. For example there's spicy ones which sound really cool, lots that are G'ed up with bacon, BBQ sauce, mozzarella sticks, cheeses, vegetables of all kinds, peanut butter. I don't really remember all the ones I've tried but there's no one that you can go wrong with. The patties are juicy, fatty, and spot on. On weekdays they have (had?) the 4:20 special where you get the 420 burger for $4.20 which is a fantastic deal because it's normally $13. But I'd pay $13 too. read more

Absolutely delicious. My wife and I came this afternoon. She surprised me with a visit here since I was craving a burger! The burgers are very reasonably priced and they have a lot of choices, which I'm excited to try. I got the burger bomb, and like the name, it was the bomb. I am lactose intolerant and the cheese didn't put me off one bit, in fact it was incredible. The patty was perfectly cooked and the bun was delicious, my only complaint was that the onion was slightly cold but that's no big deal to me. At first I was skeptical that the burgers came with chips since you usually expect fries, but the chips were delicious. They were homemade and very well made, it doesn't make you miss fries! It also came with either slaw or beans, I chose beans. I don't usually like beans or slaw but the beans were ok in my opinion so I'm sure others will like them! My wife had a salad and it was huge! The grilled chicken was hot and fresh and it was delicious looking! Overall this place is great and we will definitely return. The food is fresh. The service is friendly and fast and it's just amazing! Their desserts look awesome too! Eat outside for the best experience! read more

The huge milkshakes here are a great treat, wouldn't do it often but it is definitely a yummy treat! The Davis Square location is cozy little location right near the train stop. There is street parking. The Kitchen Sink burger was delicious and I could barely finish half of it because we had the milkshake first (dessert first ) but both the burger and milkshake was yummy. Our total for 2 burgers a milkshake was about $50. read more

The burgers are too much. Big flavors. Enormous. The real star of my meal, the Mac n cheese, pulled pork egg roll. It's like eating a slice of fried food heaven. I had a Sophia burger. I'd get it again, but also want to try other burgers. Is there a reverse gastric bypass surgery, because this place may require it. Too much. Need a nap. read more

Food is ok ,but the service was real bad , she forgot our drinks,it was a little attitude from he to us , we were waiting for her for the check it was like 13 minutes until she notice us ..I used to work for bon appetite , service for me it is very important to have the full experience.. read more

After exercise in gym I suddenly want to have a burger. When I arrived the burger shop nobody is waiting. I ordered the the roots burger and my friend ordered jumbo burger. We also ordered spicy honey chicken wings. One thing to notice is that if you are too hungry or in a hurry, then don't choose here. We waited 30+ minutes. The burger is not bad, and actually one burger is enough for me. The wing is not bad as well, but spicy is more than sweet. read more

Didn't realise this place was recently on the Diners, Drive-ins & Dives show til I saw the poster of Guy Fieri in the window, I love this show, & Guy. The place was packed, we asked for a table & waited outside 5-10 mins til the girl came out to get us. I had Waikiki burger, delicious, husband had Alpine Burger, ha didn't enjoy his bun though. Root beer was good. Portions were big. I would have preferred some fries with my burger instead of the chips, which were just thick & hard. My tips are: avoid peak times, go with party of four, most of the appetisers and fancy fries would feed four people, so you can sample a bigger range from the menu. I couldn't have eaten an appetiser (shared 2ways) and a burger without a to-go box. read more

After seeing this place on the food network I had super high expectations. It was definitely disappointing. The place was super crowded. They had given us a wait time of 30-45 minutes for three people on a Saturday afternoon. I didn't mind that. They took our phone number while we walked around town. We were super excited when they had called us nearly twenty minutes later saying our table was ready. Service was excellent, our waitress was very nice. Their menu was a bit much.. too many choices to pick from. I got the mac attack. Bun was good. Burger was not flavorful and mostly dry. Mac and cheese was also not flavorful. Overall, I wasnt a fan. read more

I am a 'Ride or Die' fan of DIves, Diners and Drive-Ins, so on a recent trip to Boston, I had to try Boston Burger. My only question now, is why? Why did I even waste my time? Upon entry we were told that it would be a 45 min. wait by someone who appeared to be real busy doing nothing. However, another receptionist was very nice and stated that there were five reservations in front of us, but that she didn't think it would be long at all! Within 10 mins., my phone was ringing saying that our table was ready! It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon, and I most certainly thought that we would have to wait! WRONG! Then, it all went downhill. The waitress was like Casper the 'Busy' Ghost! I'm not sure if she knew that she was a waitress, because she acted as if she was on a runway hiding from PAPARAZZI! There was nothing extraordinary about the burgers, except for the many varieties of toppings: the good, the bad and the unusual! The meat was not seasoned, leaving it rather bland! You would think that the meat is SO IMPORTANT due to it being a burger place and all. NEGATIVE! The sides of beans or cole slaw were so SUPER SMALL, that a toddler would have still been hungry. #babyportions Not to mention the watered down Pepsi! The homemade chips are FLAVORLESS, just deep fried with NO seasoning! Well, after she brought our order to our table (which came, quickly), the next time we saw the waitress at our table, is when we had another waitress ask her for the check! She never came and checked on us to see if we needed anything. We had to ask another waitress for our drink refills! We will not be back. read more

I ordered a burger medium for takeout. When I got home I took a bite and discovered the burger was actually raw and cold in the center. I had to finish cooking it myself. It ended up tasting pretty good. I give Boston Burger Company 1 star and 2 to myself for completing the cooking process. read more

The burgers here are fantastic and huge! They've got all sorts of creative burgers to satisfy any palate.

I've been craving a good, hearty burger and Boston Burger Co had it all! They had all kinds of burgers, indoor/outdoor dining are available along with take out! I cameb by on a Friday night. I wish the website had the option to order online for pick up, I felt bad that I had to call and didn't have my order set yet...she definitely was expected a call from someone who knew exactly what they wanted. At the end of the call I was told it should be done in 25 minutes but it took around 45 minutes total, so plan accordingly. There's lots of people around the front and there was quite a few walking in and out the small hallway when I attempted to pick up 3 times. It definitely is a popular location. Love that the burgers come with chips and the garlic parm fries here were perfection! I would definitely come here again, I only wish there was delivery to me haha read more

Awesome food! Pro Tip: Burgers tend to be undercooked so ask for well done if you want medium well

When I saw the Mac Attack on Food Network, this place was on my to go list for the longest time. I finally got to try this place today and I was not disappointed. This place is super casual with small TVs around. There also a few seats outside. I got the Mac attack and my boyfriend got the hot mess. The Mac attack had bacon (yas) but unfortunately it was a bit too crispy for my preference. The burger was super juicy and the Mac was on point. It wasn't exactly how I remembered it on tv but I was still satisfied. More cheesiest wouldn't hurt! The Hot Mess on the other hand was so good. The sauce and toppings was a flavorful combo - esp if you like thousand island. I have a low spicy tolerance but the spice was just the right amount (aka not really spicy). The burgers are enough to fill us up but I had to get the #freakfrappes because they're so hard to find in Boston! I got the Oreo frappe and it was super sweet. They don't kid around with the chocolate sauce and whip creme. I took pics for proof! I did see some extravagant frappes from the other locations so I was surprised this one only offered the 3 flavors. Regardless it was a nice treat and I would go back and try the other flavors. Overall, Boston burger co has definitely topped my list of burger places in Boston. Can't wait to try the other burgers and other 2 locations! read more

Wow. What a great experience! Excellent service and attention. All of the e food was exceptional. I would absolutely recommend this place!

Second trip, step up. The Inferno burger ($8.75 - cheddar, habanero salsa, chili pepper mayo) held together so well, I'd be so bold as to encourage patrons NOT to get the quintillion-layered lummoxes with bastions of bozo batty beef, instead letting the Angus do the talking. That bull's solid product, and the Inferno setup showcases it well. Suggestions to the Mgmt: - The burgers come with your house-made chips and either beans or slaw. Thank you. But consider taking the massive, made-for-two sides of fries (currently running $4 for plain, up to $7 dressed), lopping the portion in half and charging two or three bucks to replace the chips. Some kids just want that infamous duo and don't feel like shelling out $16 (sixteen dollars) for a burger & fry meal they simply cannot finish alone. - Split the mayo smear on the top and bottom halves of the bun. Your junk is juicy (great!) which disintegrates the lower bread (not great!) - Tell the tall, faux-brooding server with the studded belt and a penchant for laughing at her own writing that I have a crush on her. Kthxbai. Fourth star update for an intentional three-point-five. read more

I've been to this spot a couple of times now and my experiences there have been rather inconsistent. On my first visit there I decided to get a salad and it was rather disappointing. A sad excuse of a salad if I've ever seen one. But more recently, I returned to this place to meet a friend of mine for lunch and decided that I would not leave this place until I tried one of their burgers. After much hesitation in trying to pick my burger as they have a pretty varied selection of them (24 of them to be exact), I decided to skip their Hawaiian themed one which featured pineapple and instead get a pretty classic and favorite of mine: a blue cheese burger, medium. As a side, I didn't try anything fancy and settled for sweet potato fries although they do offer a few interesting takes on it by offering a bunch of options like having your fries with cajun seasoning or buffalo cheese, or even a lemon pepper coating. I thought that was rather unique and interesting. The black and bleu burger arrived a few minutes later and the patty was coated in some cajun seasoning which provided a nice, spicy contrast to the soothing blue cheese. It was actually rather tasty and the burger was cooked nicely. The bun wasn't all that great and the condiments weren't all that great. I actually had to remove almost half of my leaf of lettuce which stuck out like a sore thumb - Maybe it's my OCD but I felt like the attention to detail was inconsistent. The service was minimal, just present enough to take our order, bring it a few minutes later, and clear our check after the meal. It wasn't all that friendly but it was somewhat efficient. Note that they have a television with sports on and a pretty decent beer selection considering the size of the place. There's like... 10 tables, 15 at most and it's all rather cramped but pretty pleasant. Would I go there again? Sure, why not, it is after all conveniently located in Davis Square itself but is it any good? It's average and has nothing compared to the delicious burgers at R.F. O'Sullivans nearby but it's good enough to compete with the local establishments nearby. Overall the place is pretty good. read more

I'd say this is a hidden gem but it's right there in Davis Square! God, I love my neighborhood. After wanting to try BBC for a while I finally went on a quiet Tuesday night and had a great meal. First off, the service was excellent. Our server was super friendly, nice, and effervescent. The restaurant, while small, was clean and tidy. You can see the kitchen, which is cool. I was expecting the place to reek of meat or be stifling hot, neither was true. Ok, on to the burger! I got the turkey bomb burger. It WAS the bomb! Huge hand packed burger, juicy and cooked perfectly. The smothered mushrooms, peppers, and onions were super tasty and the cheese gooey and yummy. We had a side of fries which were HUGE. Seasoned perfectly and really tasty. We had an order of boneless wings too which were unbelievable. I didn't think it could get better than Wings Over Somerville but these were great - perfectly cooked, moist, delicious terodactyl sauce, and creamy bleu cheese. Prices were awesome, soda cups are huge, and service is great. I can't wait to go back here! read more

I ordered the Macaroni and Cheese, The Roots Burger and, the Chicken Pesto Sandwich. The M&C was pretty creamy and from what I could tell was a real cheese sauce. It was a cozy meal that I would love on a winter day. The Roots Burger was an award-winning burger, therefore, I had to test it out. It had a great chipotle mayo sauce (I think) and the burger was as juicy as you'd expect from a good burger joint. Lastly, the Chicken Pesto Sandwich was on homemade focaccia bread that was phenomenal. I would absolutely order it again. read more

I'm obsessed with burgers and it's my favorite cheat meal so I was super stoked to try this place but was disappointed with how tasteless my burger was! Dare I say it? Tasty Burger has better burgers. Two redeeming qualities of this place: sweet potato fries and the cole slaw. Cole slaw was my favorite part actually - crunchy, not overly sauced, great cole slaw flavor! I ordered the Hot Mess because I was craving spice and this burger featured chopped jalapenos. The patty: cooked medium rare the way I like. And that was probably the only good thing about my burger. Their description: sweet potato fries, American cheese, chopped pickles, jalapeños, bacon, red onion, shredded lettuce and thousand island dressing. My burger DROWNED in sauce and the flavor of the thousand island wasn't too special. I tasted none of the other ingredients listed. I even opened up my patty to see if I could find any other ingredients - I think they must have pureed it into the sauce or not added it at all because ALL I SAW WAS SAUCE and tiny slivers of green here and there - pickles? Jalapenos? The burger wasn't seasoned AT ALL. Bland and disappointing. Did they even bother adding salt or pepper? Usually, juicy flavorful burgers give me some satisfaction but this one didn't do it for me in any way and I'm wondering if I got the same burger that won the Boston Magazine Battle of the Burger and was featured on the Rachael Ray Show. Really?? Whoever's judging needs to check out DNB Burgers in New Bedford or try a burger at The Met Back Bay. I was too stuffed halfway through my meal (I had lots of snacks prior to coming here for dinner) so I had my burger and untouched chips and remaining slaw wrapped up. Mind you it was a different waitress who wrapped up my burger....but that's all she wrapped up. What happened to my chips and slaw?? Probably went into the trash. Our actual waitress gave me another side of slaw, though, which still tasted amazing next day. The burger's flavor didn't change the next day - I usually love leftovers but this one, meh. Since my friend loved her 420 burger, and since the other burger descriptions sound good, I'd give this place another shot if someone else wanted to go. I just wouldn't go out of my way when there are other places to explore in town! read more

Dying on the toilet is not the way I want to go out. Which is why I've patterned my life in the exact opposite manner as Elvis. I don't play an instrument. I don't wear jumpsuits. I generally avoid pharmaceuticals. And I toil in obscurity. However, I broke this rule at the Boston Burger Company by ordering Elvis' namesake--"The King" burger. This fine creation consists of a burger (your choice--turkey, beef, or some unholy soy abomination) topped with peanut butter and banana. Sounds disgusting, but it's good! I actually ordered a backup burger just in case the The King went bad--a customized Hawaiian burger--featuring ham and pineapple but excluding the teriyaki sauce and added a fried egg. Another fine burger indeed. The sides are great, as are the apparently home made potato chips you get with each burger. My only complaint with this place is I wish they had some bun options--offer a whole wheat one at least. read more

Delicious! For my friends 21st birthday she chose Boston burger company. The location we went to was Davis square in Somerville. Finding parking was annoying. There were a few public parking lots but they were not big and filled. I lucked out for a Saturday night and found one spot. Beside that the walk from out parking wasn't bad. The atmosphere was lively outside the restaurant With Live music from a street performer. We waited about and hour for a table for 6. But once we got in the service was quick and nice. The food was delicious. I got the chicken club. Which is chicken cutlet sandwich with mayo,bacon tomato and lettuce. Simple yet good. My friends got burgers and we're very satisfied. The fried pickles In the sampler are yummy as well. They are long pieces instead of short chips. There French fries reminded me of KFC. Potato wedge style. Overall the food was very good. I would totally go back! read more
