This is a great little spot. Prices are reasonable. Would definitely recommend coming in & checking it out. Came in with a colleague for lunch & we got here just before the lunch rush. They make the burgers, fries, & onion rings to order. So it all takes time!! Be patient. The burgers have that great smash crust on them but still flavorful & juicy. It's a very basic burger. Lettuce, onion, mayo, mustard, ketchup (I think?), & cheese but no bacon! Wasn't upset about that, totally understandable, the bacon would slow things down even more. Fries, curly fries, & onion rings. Pop, water, tea, & sports drinks. All in a fridge & nothing in a fountain machine. Chips if you want them. The difference between the regular burger k the great burger is the regular burger is basically a slider. Again, still reasonable. Would definitely come back. Make sure you double check the order though. My colleague asked for no mustard & her had mustard on it but an easy fix. No issues. Also, looks like you should be able to place an order online soon. This is an old school kind of place where they take orders by hand in a notebook. Honestly, loved to see it. Something so lovely & quaint about it. Come by and check it out if you haven't. read more

2 friends and I had burgers and fries. It was very busy but in a good way as it was noon

Cafeteria food! We ordered four small burgers and three fries for our family of four, while the price was very impressive. It took over 50 minutes for us to get our order. Let me be clear, this is not a fine dining establishment, it is very clearly a fast food joint/takeout spot. I couldn't believe the amount of time it took to get our food and then when we got it, it was very subpar and kind of burnt. It was also very hot inside the restaurant. They don't seem to have great ventilation. read more

I love Burger Nook. If you are looking for a solid burger n fries this is your spot. The prices are still pretty reasonable and I respect greatly an establishment that doesn't succumb to price gouging. My 90yro mom loves it there as well. read more

Great little place that offers burgers, hotdogs, tacos for a GREAT price. Couldn't figure out difference between regular burger size and great burger as there was no description (great burger looks about 6 to 8 oz). The crust on flat top for all burgers was great. It is a smashed burger tho I guess for the great burger you could ask them not to smash. Hot dog was also on flattop and not boiled but wish they left it to char longer. Great variety of drinks and even unique flavors like strawberry cream sodas. The taco was probably most disappointing. It was meat and potatoes but it tasted too soft/mushy. Loved that they did toast breads and even taco shells. Some was bit too long on stove. They served burger correctly.. the cheese was on bottom then meat then toppings (to prevent bun from getting soggy. Onion rings, know they are frozen but didnt care as ut was fried Perfectly.. and i mean Perfectly to where u bite and onion doesnt come off. Not at all greasy and extreme crunchy with hint of salt which was fantastic! Crispy even after 10 mins (driving back). Overall, a really cute place to go for a some honest no frill food that doesnt overcharge for sides. 3 people who worked the fryer, grill and orders. Very nice. GO try it! It actually is a hidden gem read more

Definitely a local favorite. The interior gives off cafeteria vibes, and you order at the counter. Food does take awhile. However, that's because they literally make each burger to order. The entire time I was there - well before lunch hours - there was a line. The burger was well worth the wait and is much larger than it looks in the picture; I'm sure this place has a loyal following in the neighborhood. read more

Burger Nook - Double Great Burger - Burgers Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

First time and was NOT what everyone was raving about! The burger as good and the green chile was on point but, 35 minutes from time of order till we were called was not worth the $27.80 we paid! Onion rings were VERY WELL DONE and our canned sodas were hot by the time we got our order! The very sad part of this whole thing was the take out orders were more important then the dine in orders as we sat they keep send out order after order to go while those of us waiting just sat.. Sorry, but will have to pass the next time and hit the Whataburger around the corner.. read more

The burger nook started selling their awesome burgers 40 years ago and still going strong today. Establishment is old but awesome with interesting of memorabilia. The tasty Burgers are cooked to order on the flat top grill. The buns are also toasted on the flat grill. I asked for chopped green chilies, lettuce, tomato, onions and mustard. My order of onion rings were fried golden brown - very tasty. The service was friendly fast and the food was delicious. read more

Great local burger shop with good prices. Burgers were very tasty and tasted fresh. Green chile, lettuce, patties, just simple stuff

Waited about 30 minutes for a burger & fries. The burger was quite good, but the fries were extremely greasy and limp... basically inedible.

Thank you Yelp for hooking us up with a delicious burger place. It's not the best place I've ever been to in my life for a green chile cheeseburger, as I tip my hat to a place just outside Albuquerque for THAT nod, but the burgers are legit and worth a stop. It's definitely a mom n' pop place. Locals seem to call it in ahead of time, which is suggested, as time stands still here. If you plan on eating here, get there early as there's only 10 tables or so, and once you place your order, expect to wait as its cooked to order. We had the regular burger and the Great burger. The Great ones are much larger (hence, the word Great and it reflects on the price). The green chilies provides some heat but its not overly spicy. Very tasty. The fries are much to be desired. Limp. And a large is not large. I thought 2 could share a large, and it's smaller than a basket from In-N-Out. Quite disapointing. Would I stop again? Sure, but I'd stick to the onion rings, and call ahead for my meal. read more

I'm so glad they opened back up because that burger I had the other day was delicious. Get the big double burger with green chile. You won't be disappointed. read more

Today my husband and I stopped in the Burger Nook to try the Great Burger and it did not disappoint. Their burgers were so juicy, delicious, and amazing that I am already craving another one. Their homemade fries and onion rings are super yummy too. If you are craving a delicious burger I highly recommend giving this family owned business a try. You won't regret it!!!! read more

Service is always good and they work as fast as they can. If you Liked Days Burgers you'll like Burger Nook. I get the small burgers with Chile and man they are good. read more

Good standard burgers. Make sure to call your order in, as I have waited up to 45 minutes. It's a local landmark, but in my opinion it's not as good as advertised. read more

Another trip over to the Burger Nook today. Ya just have to get some every so often. Arrived around 10:45 on a Wednesday when they were not too busy. The pleasant women had my food ready today in around 13 minutes. I ordered the double patty Great Burger with green chile, lettuce, and cheese along with a large serving of onion rings. A can of soda from the fridge was only a buck. The onion rings were good with a crispy batter...not at all greasy. The onions they used could have had more flavor, but overall the rings were good. Rate them a "B." The burger had two patties, not greasy but perhaps a tad dry. The meat was nicely seasoned. A slice of cheddar cheese lay over the meat but was unmelted. Fresh lettuce and flavorful chile accompanied the meat. The chile was properly strained and there was virtually no liquid or grease in the bottom of my basket when I finished my meal. The burger bun had a really good flavor. Overall, this was an excellent burger. Rate it an "A-." Today's dining experience at the Burger Nook was Four Stars for quite good. Casual but pleasant with good food. Every so often I just have to get me some! read more

November 8, 2023 - This place is still rocking out those Great burgers. I hadn't been since COVID, but found myself nearby and stopped in for lunch. SO GOOD! I'll be visiting at least once a week bringing the whole family! The food was fresh, hot and so delicious. These are not your fast food burger patties. This are fresh ground! Mmmmm read more

Small burger joint. Big burger taste. These are not smashed burger patties. These are half inch thick burgers topped with cheese, onion, thick pickles, lettuce, green chiles and flat top grill grease. A double was almost too much for my 24 year old son. These are authentic mom & pop burgers with toasted buns. They do a big business after ball games from the field in the park across the street. A lot of to go orders, too. So plan on a bit of a wait for your order or order ahead. You bet we'll be back. read more

Great burgers but call in your order. The burgers are some of the best in Las Cruces no matter what others might say.

Always get a tasty burger with great service from staff. I usually call ahead for pick up orders as it can get very busy. When I have time, I dine in and enjoy great tasting burgers. Keep up the great work! read more

Delicious burgers. Great customer service. My 8 year old granddaughter said it was the best burger ever. I really liked that I was able to watch them prepare my burger with fresh products. Plan to return with the rest of my family. read more

Good home made burgers and fries. Not expensive. The ladies taking my order were very nice.

I'm traveling through Las Cruces and saw the great reviews for The Nook hamburgers. So, I went. I walked in and it was very small. the side room had taken most of the main room tables and chairs. I ordered and then a nice gentleman offered me a seat at his table. His order was a few ahead of mine so we had a nice time chatting about the area and finding a good hamburger in a new town. After a VERY long wait we got our orders and both cheeseburgers were overcooked, no flavor whatsoever, and the buns were crunchy. A disappointment to say the least. The staff were friendly. The atmosphere was strange. People kept coming and taking tables and chairs for a different room and left customers standing around. It was very awkward. Not a comfortable vibe. read more

The food was excellent service was good. Had a wait a while that she was so busy. Dizzy would recommend going there. I would go again and have a burger And fries read more

The best chile cheeseburger in Dona Ana County!!!! We try to eat there at least 3 times a month!!! Love the friendly staff!!

Love this hole in the wall. Clean. Workers are great. And the hamburgers are a delicious throwback to the 60s and 70s. Yeah, a real hamburger at a very fair price. The only place I go for a true green-chile cheese burger. Nothing comes close. read more

My favorite burger joint in town. Been coming here for a long time. The ladies always make the best burgers, and it's family owned, keep coming here and support local business. read more

Small little hole in the wall place. Very busy and lots of locals in and out. Overall, good burgers. Well cooked and seasoned. Veggies were fresh and crisp. The lady taking the order was a bit rude and short... could be cuz we weren't from there and it showed. But that's minor... I get it. Would go back if in the mood for a quick burger or snack. read more

Such a nice hometown place. Too bad they no longer have the butter packs, but still great food!! The ladies are sure to ask how you want your burgers. I recommend coming here and supporting this local place. read more

Burger Nook - Menu - Burgers Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

Great burgers, local kitchen feel to it, and green chiles! It may be busy on a Saturday or whenever everyone is out and about (there was a baseball tourney down the street and they were eating lunch here), but it was well worth it. The burgers are cooked on an grill, and I feel like the grease on the burger is what makes this place different from other burger places in town. A double patty was almost too much for me! But the chiles make it have that extra spice and kick to it that we all need. The fries were good but could've been a little less cooked. We shared a large and nearly finished it though. Come on for lunch if you want a taste of a one of a kind grill joint! read more

Great place to grab a classic burger and fries from a local spot. Highly recommend trying your burger with green chilies.

Undoubtedly the best burgers you will ever try. I love how they make them from scratch and not premade like other restaurants. Absolutely amazing. I highly recommend this place. read more

I love how every yuppy that just moved to town from California say they love this burger and it was the best place to go their whole life. The reality is, this burger is the best, when we were kids at would eat them for a quarter a piece. These burgers are as good now as they were then. The sisters that run this place are saints. The only down side is that the yuppys that come in and fill up the place and talk about how they can't get a burger this good from whatever hole they crawled out of. The best burger. Better than the hatch place or the owl place on the way north on i25. read more

Sorry, but the wait time to prepare 2 cheese burgers and some fries was way tooooo long. The burgers had "tickle to the palette", however we will not return for an encore. read more

Hole in the wall restaurants always has the best burgers. Ordered a single great burger with cheese. Thickness of patty was just right, cheese was melted, bread nice and soft and burger had just enough of that tasty grease from the grill. Burger was made fresh upon order, staff friendly, restaurant clean. read more

I love their hamburgers and fries here. I always get the single hamburgers with no onions and no tomatoes. I also like to add their specialty Hatch Green Chile in my hamburgers. Their service is not good or bad every time I come here. The ladies who run the place and cook aren't very friendly unless you're a regular there and even if you are a regular there, they still have to decide if they like you and want to be friendly. But that hasn't happened with me yet but it's okay, I'm just there for the hamburgers anyways!! I prefer taking out my food and not dining in, simply because of the fact that the little diner is either packed or with hardly any people at all. I don't care to eat in there and would rather take my food and eat it at home like I always do when I order from here. They're pretty fast at making the hamburgers and fries you just have to call in advance and place an order cause if not and you order in person at the diner instead, you're going to be waiting for at least 15 minutes. read more

I moved here recently from California and I have to tell you, this is a GREAT burger. I'm definitely coming back! The patty, the bun, the fries...all delicious! I've got some friends from California who are relocating here soon and I can't wait to bring them! This burger is literally better than anything I could find back home! Can't wait to see you next time Pasquala!!! read more
