I love great burger joints and went based on the reviews. Guess I ordered the wrong stuff. Nachos were the circular type you'd get at a movie theater or 7-Eleven, with cheese whiz, with some meat and jalapenos thrown in. Horrible. Since a "burger place" tried a specialty burger - Empire State Burger, Garlic Bun was OK, but there was nothing too it. Burger with two basil leaves on top and a slice of mozzarella on the bottom, not melted, just there.... Nothing like a cheeseburger should look like. Sweet potato fries were good. read more

This place is not follow Covid rules at all. I sat 2 feet from someone. The bar was full. Standing people around the bar. "Parties of 4" only unless you're a party of 6 that they seat next to each other and you slide the table over. Well over capacity restrictions. Slow service. Out of food. Toilet leaking and flooding the restroom. Shall I continue? I support social responsible businesses. This is not one. Also no ID check for drinks so have fun minors. read more

Interesting place. Lots of choices for burgers. A few other choices if you don't want a burger. Fish fry was good and burgers cooked correctly. The critique comes with the tiny portion of coleslaw. (not a fan of fries all the time) They could get rid of the tiny cheap plastic portions and give more slaw! Also, no music in the larger seating area or cool lighting, so kinda felt like a rec room...not giving off good ambience for a tavern feel. Overall it was OK, but needed "something". I could get that food anywhere else. read more

Being in the Batavia area for family reasons, I had poked around online looking for dining options. Through various cross references, I'd found Bourbon & Burger Co. and we thought about dining there. We gave it a try. It's on a side street but easy to find, with ample parking on street and in a lot across the street. It has a dark but clean bar-like feel; not like an old gritty bar, but not super trendy, either; a nice medium where most people would be comfy. Bar stools and tables from small to large can handle anything from a quick drink for one or a larger gathering of friends. It is dark, though, so people who like to eat under the bright light of florescents won't be happy. I'm not one of those people. The menu of sandwiches is one whole side of a sheet of paper single spaced with items. If you can think of it, they have a burger that wears it. Consider Kansas Breakfast Burger - a fresh-never-frozen 1/2 lb beef burger with one fried egg, two strips of bacon, and nacho filled tator tots all topped with maple syrup. !! Our party of six tried a wide variety of burgers from the Philly Cheese Burger to the Bubba Gump through the St. Reubens Day Burger to... my favorite... the Mac Attach: mac n cheese with diced red hot (a type of sausage) atop a burger. Really? Really. And it worked, too. Damn good. (Could have used some A1 though, that would have really set it off.) In addition the menu has a variety of other sandwiches, wraps, soups, salads, you name it. Something for everyone most likely. We found service to be fast, knowledgeable and friendly, and the food was very good. Genesee County, which holds Batavia, has about 15,000 people. To find a burger that good, I'll say I was impressed. Only way to better it would be to get local beef and hand grind, something which would really set the joint apart if there were any competition. But I bet there isn't! :) (Oddly enough, we discovered that at some distance, this place was owned by relation [I'd have to draw you a flow chart, but trust me.] We had traveled from Oregon by way of Indiana to visit upstate New York. But that doesn't change my review.) read more

See all

Went here for the first time Mac and cheese was good thought the burger was average meat was not that flavorful not a fan of burger joints that use costanzo rolls there are awful and heavy there are so many better choice with a fancy name like burbon and burger I was expecting more. read more

Please beware, we went to Bourbon and Burger in Batavia, for the second time tonight. The last time we were there last Monday night, we had a party of ten. This time we had a party of five. We had the same waitress both times. When we went to pay the bill, one person noticed a $10 extra charge on his bill plus a gratuity added for a total of $15 extra added to his bill. She tried to tell him that was just a note to herself to remember how much to give the bartender at the end of the night. He pointed out then it shouldn't be added to his total. So we all asked for our green order sheets back. We all had gratuity added on our bills. She tried to tell us it was a new policy for separate checks for parties of 7 or more, except there was only 5 of us and we were never told of this new policy. But the best part was when we were getting ready to leave she told us she remembered that NONE of our party of 10 tipped very well when we were there a week ago. Needless, we will never go back there again. read more

Visited for dinner. The server was courteous but forgot to bring/refill water. Their beer selection is unimpressive -- a bit surprising because they have decked out the place with tonnes of cool looking empty beer bottles that they ostensibly served at the establishment at some point. The burger was really good though. read more

My burger was delicious but way over cooked which is disappointing when you eat at a specialty burger place! The fries were good but a minute undercooked! Our server was in a hurry for? Place not busy took forever to get drinks he never asked how everything was and brought the check when we were only half way through our meal so we asked for boxes, very unprofessional no check just a hand written piece of paper? A little shady! read more

Service: welcoming, friendly, efficient Food: Excellent Hamburgers, Lots of choices, we tried California and Empire State...very nice, as was the side salad and thick cut fries Beer: Guinness (and many others) on tap. They also have numerous bourbons Prices: Affordable / Reasonable / Good Value read more

Bourbon & Burger - Bar - Burgers Near Me - Batavia, New York

Waitress forgot to put our order in once she took it. Bad experience - will not go back

This place gets 2 stars for their service and accommodations- laid back place with a bar area and separate room with tables, a pool table and darts. The food on the other hand left much to be desired. From the minute we walked in it was freezing inside. It was a really cold day, but would expect the restaurant to be properly heated. The drinks and food were no exception either, cold all around!!!! We ordered hot coffee because we were cold and that was like warm at best. They did make a fresh pot and brought it out promptly so it was hot. When we got our burgers, all of the fries were cold so they actually made fresh ones and brought those out hot as well. That was amazing, but should have been done the first time. The burgers were also like warm at best which made them just kinda eh because burgers are best when hot off the grill. The menu of burgers was a great variety, but execution was not phenomenal. It might help to get hot food to your customers if there was actually heat in the place!! Sadly, would not be going to try this place again nor would I recommend it. read more

This place really good and a great find on our weekend soccer trip. The food was really good and the burger, beer and bourbon menu was extensive. Gluten free options were a must for several in our party and they commented on the quality of the buns, which are hit or miss. Overall, this place is really good and if we are ever back it will be a must for us. read more

The main reason I'm reviewing this is because I had one of the best burgers ever here tonight. I had the Burnin' Love burger, which has jalapeños, onion rings and boom-boom sauce on it. It's spicy perfection. My wife got the Miami Beach, which turns the burger into a faux Cubano. It was killer as well, especially the mustard. We loved the fries, and the pickles were money. I suppose I also have to review the Bourbon menu - it's enormous! I had a flight. I will definitely go back. The value exceeds the price by far!! read more

Stopped in based on reviews and scoring. Very good. I had the Kentucky my wife the Cali burger. I also orders a side salad and slaw. Slaw was great side salad was big with some veggies too. Order was perfectly done with some extra asks as well. Young lady impressed me with her attentiveness and ability's. She carried five orders at one time. She also had all the tables. Must have been eight tables most had four people. read more

Subpar meal last night- dried our burger and chicken, edges of the rolls were so hard they were inedible. Very disappointing. Not up to what we had come to expect from this local pub. read more

Bourbon & Burger - Kentucky Bourbon Burger and a heavy pour of Angel's Envy from a generous bartender - Burgers Near Me - Batavia, New York

Bourbon is by far my girlfriend and my favorite place to eat locally! The burgers are always so delicious and I have almost made it through trying every burger on the menu over the last few years. They also do a burger of the month that is usually super unique! During all these times with COVID, they've stayed open by doing takeout and delivery. Though they are out of delivery range for me, my girlfriend and I usually order food for takeout from there every other Friday. During the pandemic, they've also kept things interesting by doing a Greatest of All Time burger of the week, bringing back well-likes burgers of the month in the past. read more

If you can't find a burger here that you like, maybe you should switch to chicken. Simple as that. You need to go here if you are in the area. read more

One of my favorite places to eat. There are so many great burgers and I intend to try them all. The 4 I have had so far were all amazing.

If you value your time don't go here....the food was good though. Waited over 15 minutes to even see a waiter. Took almost 50 minutes for food to be served. read more

Every thing was great, the girl serving was awesome great personality, Hamburger's were perfect.

The place had a cold breeze from overhead and we were told the whole place was that cold. The drinks and meal were ok. The check came and was hand written without tax on an old fashioned restaurant check pad. I'm glad I noticed and commented to my wife, because when the modern credit card printed check arrived it was for $58 instead of $38. When I asked about it, our waitress returned so quickly with a $20 refund that it felt like this had happened before. Is this sketchy? There would be no paper trail if I didn't discovered this til I was home. I expected more based on the listing. read more

If you aren't hungry and you just want to talk to the people you plan to dine with, then this is the place for you! Food is great but the wait, come on, it was like you had a bus but you didn't have a bus! Waited nearly an hour for food! Unacceptable considering it was only lunch time. read more

Good burgers. Service is very slow-even before pandemic and staff is not super friendly but also not terrible.

Yo....this place is getting 5 stars before I even get my food. The burger menu is out of this world creative and almost impossible to choose since they all sound so good. You feel good about the price (Around $10 per burger which comes with fries or salad and upgraded sides are only $1) which leaves room in the budget to cop a tempting bourbon drink (which is also reasonably priced, $4-$7) Service has been on point! Will update with post food review, stay up fam. read more

Our favorite restaurant in batavia! Eating in or takeout, we have never been disappointed. They have a fun trivia night on Tuesday's. However, they are closed on Sunday's. read more

A lesson to be remembered....never order fish in a burger place,even on Friday. Had to use a steak knife to cut through the overly crisp beer batter coating and the fish underneath was seriously over cooked. All three orders. Ate there at lunchtime on a Friday. Maybe better in evening? read more

No Contest, they have the best variety of burgers in town! Fast and friendly service with a great atmosphere. Huge selection of whisky for the aficionado's, not to mention the rotating beer selection. This place has it all! read more

so many options for burgers and you can't go wrong with any of them! great specials during the week. known for their bourbon flights!

This place serves THE WORST gin martini I have ever tasted in my life, Period! I ordered a second one (not drinking the first) to give them a chance and nope, still awful!!! if you mess a dry martini, then how can you make the more complex bourbon cocktails correctly? The place is named Bourbon & Burgers and I don't even want to know! The burgers are okay and service is great, so if you drink beer, go for it... I just doubt they mess that up! read more

Delicious meals!!! Came here for our wedding anniversary and am so happy we did. My husband had the everything's bigger in Texas burger and loved it. I had the Cali burger and loved the fresh avocado, lettuce and onions. Fries were cooked perfectly too. Highly recommend and will be back for more! read more

Amazing burger selection. Out of the way and hidden. The challenge is to eventually try the entire menu. Good luck! You won't be disappointed. read more

A group of us were on our way to Buffalo and found this little pub. We all tried different burgers and they were great. We had a friendly waitress and great service. Will definitely go back if we are ever in the area. read more

The burger list was extensive. All the choices sounded great and as my family and I watched meals for other tables come out, they all looked good as well. I was surprised there was a children's menus and it had more choices than many other restaurants. The kids' hotdog was really good. The nacho sauce with pretzel bites was really good. I dipped my fries in it too. I got the Santa Fe burger and was pleased. I would definitely return if I'm ever in the area again. read more

Creative burger menu to be sure...and very tasty. Fries are excellent. And, plenty of bourbon---they even do flights!Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. read more

A craft burger and beer spot in Batavia? Say it isn't so! I checked out this place while I was in town visiting family. There's a wide selection of specialty burgers on the menu with some creative combos like you'd see on Guy Fieri show. I opted for a basic cheeseburger and was more than happy with my order. Adventurous eaters and burger aficionados will enjoy the more inspired options. They also has a decent selection of microbrews on tap. I went with the 'Arrogant Bastard' which paired nicely with my burger. The prices are right, too - burgers of similar quality in Chicago would be twice the price. I'm not in Batavia very often but when I do I'll definitely drop in again. read more

Excellent burgers. Tremendous amount of options, fresh ingredients and cooked well. I had the Bubba Gump and it is in the conversation for the best burger I've ever had. Imaginative combo of burger, grilled shrimp, cheese and thai sweet chili. Son had and loved the California and my younger girl raved over her simple kids cheese burger, stating that the bun was the "best kind". Now I'm trying to find a reason to be in Batavia again. read more

Great burger! I had the Omaha Steak burger and sweet potato fries. In town for work for a night. I wish I had a comfortable restaurant and bar in my suburban town like this. Batavia has a lot of good choices, independently owned restaurants. I am jealous!!! Glad I stopped by for a flight of bourbon and a quality burger. read more
