Cow & Cheese has great food. I typically don't frequent this particular location but it offers the same options and great service as the University location. You order via a kiosk and your food is prepped and delivered pretty quickly. I only got fries this time but will return to try a burger.

Cow n cheese is a great place for a smash burger! I got their doc burger add jalapeños. We also got the seasoned fries. Everything seemed to be made fresh. You order through a kiosk and there was plenty of seating! There is a parking lot with a ton of spaces available! If you are in the mood for a smash burger then this is a fantastic option! It was very good. We will be back.

So tired of the "just gonna ask you a quick question" screen flips for everything, so this made me feel great before I even ordered.

No-frills place. Would call this a "do one thing and do it well" place. This is a burger place and a burger place only, don't look for chicken sandwiches or hot dogs or anything else on the menu. Smashburger is rich and indulgent, but very good. Staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive. There's a sign posted that they don't accept tips, which was incredibly refreshing (are we all weary of the "just gonna ask you a quick question" screen. Overall, definitely recommend!

Cow and Cheese is such a vibe. Smash burgers on a perfectly toasted brioche bun with crispy bacon and their house special sauce is everything. I dip my Cajun fries in the sauce too and it is a game changer. But honestly what keeps me coming back just as much as the food is the people. Everyone greets you the second you walk in and makes you feel right at home. Love this place.

I stopped by Cow & Cheese because I was in the area. The ambiance was busy & steady traffic for dining in & take out . The service was quick . You order on the kiosk and they will text you when your order is ready. They have recently added a $12 value meal that comes with a double cow x double cheese sandwich, fries and a drink . You can upgrade your fries and drink for an extra $0.99 each and you can also upgrade your sandwich for an additional $3. I did upgrade my fries to the dry rub but kept everything else the way the meal came . I ate part of my meal there and took the rest to go. The ambiance of the place is like a 90's vibe and they were bumping some nice 90's music .

Not bad at all, definitely sloppy though. Maybe it was a bad idea for me to put lettuce, tomato, and bacon all on the sandwich along with their secret sauce. For me, it's basically another Smashburger place that really just sells burgers and fries and really nothing else more. Once you get past the messiness of the sauce and everything else it's actually not bad. But I wouldn't really come back again unless I was starving. I feel like there's many of these all across the country. Service was phenomenal, though, they definitely do care about their patrons.

Hungry ? Well you need to run to this place located near lake lily in maitland and grab the most delicious smash burger in orlando ! Service is very welcoming and I love the chill ambiance with music playing . After visiting their location in winter park , we decided to try this location and the vibe was still amazing. A bit hidden so look for Walgreens as this is right by and close to Francesco's . For under $40 we had 2 smash burgers with fries and a fountain drink. I know what I'll be ordering for my picnics at lake Lily or salon visits from now on.

If you are looking for a great smash burger in Orlando, look no further; I've found just the place!!! The place was clean and had a calm vibe with plenty of seating. Cow & Cheese centers around simplicity. From the menu to the ordering process, everything was easy, efficient, and simply enjoyable. I liked that the options were few, yet completely customizable to your liking. And, I appreciated that they have a $12 meal deal which includes a double burger, fry, and a drink! It was a place that anyone could come and be satisfied on a budget with a high quality meal. Moreover, the food was out of this world! I loved every bite! It was so sweet that the staff came by as we finished to ask about our experience and to make sure everything went well! That was a great touch. This is my new burger recommendation for all my friends! CAN'T WAIT to come back!!!

Cow and Cheese is a legit burger spot. It was our first time there and overall it was a good experience. The restaurant had a hip hop vibe with some cool artwork and 90s music. The service was really good as everyone was super friendly and welcoming. As it was our first time, the gentleman working took the time to walk us through the process of ordering and the entire menu. My youngest son got a double cheeseburger, my older son got a triple, and I got the Doc. We got an order of regular fries and the seasoned fries. We also got the cheese sauce and some sodas. The smash burgers were good and fresh and the bread was good too. As these were our first time having smash burgers we have to give it another shot. The beer sauce was delicious!! We were dipping our fries in it! The seasoned fries were good but the flavor resembled BBQ potato chips. If you like that flavor you would love the fries! I was expecting them to be spicy so I was a little disappointed that they were more Smokey and sweet. Overall I would recommend this place and definitely plan on going back.

My mother was in the mood for a burger before her flight, so I went to my trusty list of "Must Try" spots. Since Cow & Cheese was on the way to the airport, we decided to give it a try. Overall, it was ok. Not great, but not bad. Like most places, it has its good points and not so good points. Good points: awesome music, vibes, decor, and food. Not so good: Messing up our order, having to request condiments, napkins, straws, utensils, nor offering "single" patty, and overcharging (this goes for most places these days). Here's the real deal: The burgers taste good and the fries (without seasoning) were really good. But since these are "smash burgers" their double-patties are super thin and aren't as filling as you'd expect. My wife and mother, who both generally eat very small portions were both able to easily finish their burgers.

I really wanted to like this place but it just didn't hit the mark for me. First impressions weren't great. The space felt kind of dirty and unkempt. On top of that you have to order on an iPad and there's no explanation or guidance if it's your first visit. Meanwhile three employees were just chatting behind the counter. Once we flagged someone down they were friendly and gave us recommendations which I appreciated. I love smashburgers, easily my favorite style, but these were just burnt. The whole burger was hard and crunchy, not in a good way. It was like biting into char. The fries came with some kind of special seasoning that was overpowering and honestly just unpleasant. There was so much of it we couldn't even shake it off. We barely made it through half the meal. Maybe we caught them on an off day but overall it was a disappointing experience. Doubt I'd return.

Seasoned fries. Yummy.

BEST burger I've had in Orlando! 3 menu items ( burgers) then chose sides You can have your fries with or without seasoning ! Good location, plenty of parking and handicapped accessible. Service was good and I enjoyed the ambience in the artwork.!! Really like the sauce a lot !! I do have a few new burger, places to try but prior to trying this one. I thought five guys had the best burger. After trying this one. Cow & cheese now has my award..... for best burger * same owners as chicken fire And that chicken wing place (that's the name) if I said it wrong hopefully the owner or somebody will correct me because that's the last place. I need to try but so far two out of two winners!!! Nice job guys thanks

Stopped into Cow and Cheese today and had such a great experience. Hatter was super helpful and made me feel right at home while I decided what to order. I went with "The Doc" burger and wow--juicy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The toppings really set it apart, and you can tell everything is made fresh with care. The vibe of the place is laid-back but welcoming, and the staff really goes the extra mile. Definitely recommend checking them out if you're in the area--I'll be back for sure to try more of the menu!

Best burgers but fries could have been cooked another minute or two. Also soda fountain was not working correctly- coke tasted bad.

I've been a big fan of Irregular Smash since they set up shop for a good run of time right outside…read moreof Ivanhoe Brewery. While I was a little slow to hop on the Smash Burger bandwagon, I am so glad I finally caught up, because wow! And Irregular Smash has really cornered the market on their smash burger selections. With them setting shop just outside the Ivanhoe Brewery parking lot, the owners got to know quite a few of us because our social tennis league (Tennis on Tap) would meet every Tuesday evening for our seasonal matches. This meant we were no strangers at Irregular Smash. By the time they left, which was a couple of months ago now, my teammates and I had tried nearly everything on their menu, and not one thing we tried was bad. The quality of food their team provided was exceptional. Everything tasted amazing. They were awesome and always just fun and supportive of our tennis trials and tribulations. I also loved that they got to learn our names, too. Made the experience of patronizing their business even more special. Price points were reasonable as well. If you don't eat meat, they also offer an Impossible Smash Burger option - great for the vegan folks (like my mom)! I was a regular patron of their OG Smash and Truffle Attack Fries. I am definitely sad to see them leave the parking lot of Ivanhoe Brewery, but I am happy to know they will be coordinating pop-ups all throughout the Orlando and surrounding areas in the coming days. I look forward to seeing how they grow, and maybe one day they will have their own brick-and-mortar. Until then, I'll be on the lookout via their social media account for where they'll be next because they made a lifetime fan out of me.

Irregular Smash is the resident food truck at Ivanhoe Brewing. What better combination is there…read morethan craft beer and a smash burger?! We did take our food to-go but enjoyed a beer from the brewery while we waited for our food. The staff at Irregular Smash were so kind and had me smiling through our whole process of ordering. Genuinely some really nice people work there! The burgers were SO DANG GOOD. I would absolutely come back here, but I think I would rather eat there because the whole area is a vibe. The Firestarter is a bit spicy so just be aware of that when you order. The Truffle Freak was my absolute favorite!! I am a sl*t for anything that has truffle in it, and their truffle aioli is FANTASTIC. My only piece of advice when visiting here would be to check the events happening at the brewery before going. Sometimes there are markets or events occurring that limit the parking. The events also usually add to the fun environment though!
