This review is solely based on my group's experience tonight with Aidan as our server at the glory days in Burke. He KILLED IT! As most of you know since the pandemic the service industry has really sucked.... Horrible servers and wait staff everywhere. Tonight was such a breath of fresh air and in a very unexpected location - glory days..... thank you Aidan for being a great server in a world full of crappy ones. It makes a world of difference. read more

We are regulars at Glory Days in Burke. Everyone is so welcoming but we especially love the bar staff Lisa. Sheldon and Monica. They are great and very attentive with great personalities .Just what you would want in a bar staff. They really keep things running smoothly and we appreciate this as we are there all the time! read more

Came in for lunch with some friends. Unfortunately something happened with the computer systems and they were not able to sell us alcohol. Even though we couldn't have a cocktail the food was delicious! Ryan was great, very friendly, and apologized for the inconvenience. He even gave us a free appetizer for our next visit. We will be back! read more

A sandwich isn't a sandwich unless you have juice and sauce running down your arm this patty melt had so much flavor with the caramelized onions and the gravy to dip the sandwich in read more

Run away as fast as you can. The management is horrible. The food is terrible. The service is awful. If you like being overcharged and double charged for food and drinks this is your place. read more

Make sure Lauren is your waitress when you go. She is by far the most talented, thoughtful and enthusiastic waitress I have had in years. Food is what you would expect and so was the ambiance of a sports bar. I wouldn't even be writing this if it was not for the service. Special shoutout to Corinne as well. She was not my waitress, but the one conversation we had lit everyones faces with smiles. Rockstars over there! Keep it up! read more

Went in for the Air Force versus Navy college football game and service was so good. The hosts were wonderful, got sat quickly. The service was wonderful, food and drinks came out very quick. The manager had brought out our food and was so kind, got us a refill. First time going to the In Burke and will absolutely be coming again. 2 thumbs up! read more

First... I want to say that I am quite addicted to their Buffalo Chicken Salad! It is a huge chopped salad topped with around ten boneless mild wings (can be changed to other levels of heat if desired!) and blue cheese. I actually crave this salad every time i see this place! This visit, we ordered the fried pickles and bacon cheese fries for appetizers. They were so amazing! The cheese fries didn't have that goopy fake liquid cheese like some places. They actually baked them with sharp cheddar! I am a huge fan of both! Three of the four people in our party ordered the Buffalo Chicken Salad (yes it is that good)! My son got the rack of ribs dinner and I can just say, the ribs were so tender and moist, falling off the bone. The sauce was seriously finger licking good! The only thing I wish this place did better is dessert. I had the cobbler which was good but the crust to fruit ratio was not well balanced. My husband had the banana bread pudding which was good but was a pretty small portion for the money. My son had the cheesecake which was good but was set on top of a sauce that overpowered the main event. My daughter had the ice cream sandwiches which were made with oreo cookie outsides, rolled in sprinkles, and served with a big side of hot fudge. They were really good. Our service has always been stellar! They are so incredibly attentive to your party. It can get a bit loud when they have a full house but that isn't a distraction. Super popular with the locals! read more

Glory Days Grill - Buffalo chicken salad is amazing! - American Near Me - Burke, Virginia

Best service we've had in a long time! Aidan was absolutely fabulous and on point. Food was great and honestly not one complaint!

Very slow service. Messed up my burger and took them 32 mins to fix it. Was sitting there hungry just waiting for my food. Won't be coming back. read more

Awful service, waited over an hour just to order and another hour for our food. Half the orders came out wrong, the first order was brought out over 30 minutes before the last persons meal. Wish I could rate zero stars , unacceptable for a Wednesday night. Go to another location don't waste your time. read more

I was just picking up takeout at the glory days in Burke and for the 2nd time I have encountered the girl working the take out area was just rude again. First time a thought maybe she was just having a bad day. But today was the same thing. Throw the food on the table and walk away. No thank you no hello nothing. Get rid of this person. If this is customer service you guys have issues. Cheers read more

Penne Pasta w/ "garlic cream sauce" equals barely any sauce and just bland noodles with broccoli and a some chicken breast slices thrown on top. Funny it's similar to the kids pasta meal they got rid of...and now just charging more as an adult "entree". read more

Really disappointed with them the reduced menu. No hot dog your kidding grandkids loved them. Service is intermittent at best seemed to be more of a kitchen problem, smaller menu is supposed to help this. Don't believe it. looking for a new place read more

Sunday nights are definitely the best nights at this place. The best part about it for me is the atmosphere. There had to be, my guess at least 50 flat screen televisions spread out everywhere. At 7:30 on a Sunday, the place was literally packed with people. In spite of this, my girlfriend and I were seated quickly and the location of the table was decent. I ordered the center cut sirloin steak which included potatoes and a Caesar salad. My girl got the barbeque chicken tenders platter that had French fries. Our Server was super cool and attentive. He came around a couple of times for drink re-fills and brought the food to our table fast. The steak was awesome and the chicken tenders were good as well. We finished everything, except for some leftover fries. I liked this place a lot! read more

Love the food, burgers in particular and wings and the Orange Crush. Love the atmosphere. No complaints.

Food tends to be pretty good at this location, but the only thing that is consistent is the bad attitude of the bartender. When I received my order of wings, which were visibly over cooked, I pointed this out to the bartender and showed him the dried out wings, he said well the other wings look okay, what should I do. Wow. This bartender has a serious attitude problem - I love Glory Days but stay away from the Burke location if you want friendly, professional and courteous service read more

I just had an amazing experience at the Burke Glory Days. Anna had excellent service! The food was amazing! The drinks were strong. I couldn't ask for more. Will definitely return !! Did I mention that the food was soooooo good!?? It was read more

This is a neighborhood restaurant. I live right around the corner. I have been here many times over the years. It is a family favorite. I give 3 stars as an average. I have had some 5 star experiences and some clear 2 start experiences; mostly related to service. Lunch is usually a very pleasant experience. We can count on a quick meal with decent service. Dinner can be quite loud and there is generally a wait to be seated. Weekends are particularly loud. When we go as a family, we usually get crab dip, crab pretzels or cheese fries as an appetizer. They are all delicious! The kids are crazy about the cheese fries. The ranch on the side is perfect with the hot, cheesy, bacon-y goodness. What is better than crisp fries draped with hot, melty cheese? We have tried most of the menu. The Hall of Fame Prime Burger is really nice. It is flavorful and juicy. One of my sons loves the ribs. It is his go-to meal. Do try the wings, They are wonderful! I like the Glory wings and the Garlic Buffalo. My husband likes the Hot. My kids like the Teriyaki and Old Bay wings. I haven't tried a wing that I didn't like. If you have left room for dessert, order the Ice Cream Sliders. They are over-sized Oreo wafers with a creamy vanilla ice cream served with a chocolate sauce on the side for dipping. They are a perfect end to a nice, family meal. read more

Ok, so as I have said in past reviews, I am a regular customer in the Burke Glory Days Grill. I recently went there and had a poor experience, well you ask, why the 5 stars? The outstanding customer service by the owner! I wrote him about my issue. He used my complaint as a learning tool to better his team and make physical corrections to the restaurant itself. That is how it should work! I was then invited back to see the results my guests and I had a marvelous dinner, were able to speak to the owner. More service based companies could stand to take note. Customers do not complain to get free meals, they more often then not are a restaurant's first chance to correct an issue and improve. Congratulations Glory Days..... you got it right. read more

Hubby loves this place. We've been to several around the state and this one is it! Trey was our server and he was on point! Hubby discovered his newest love...Cheesesteak Eggrolls. WOW! It's good stuff!! I got my usual half nachos but then it's my favorite!! read more

Used to be OK, now it's mediocre. Used to go here with my friends years ago for their cheese fries and ok burgers/cheesesteaks. Four years later we go here and everything is more expensive and tastes worse. Each of my friends got appetizers and a different entree, and all of us were highly dissatisfied with our meals. For the ribs and the cheesesteaks, the meat was way too dry. The cheesesteaks said they came with grilled peppers but they were dryer than the meat. One of my friends ordered a sandwich that comes with chicken and crab on top and said that it tasted like the food you get served back in high school. All of our appetizers tasted like they were frozen before, onion rings were okay at best. To top it off, the service was horrible. After ordering appetizers we had to wait 20 minutes to find our server again to ask about our appetizers and to order our entrees. All of the deals have been raised by at least a dollar (Appetizers used to be $5 after 9pm, now it's $6). Used to be an ok restaurant, but most likely never coming back again. read more

This place is a staple spot in Burke. Everyone in town stops by to catch any sport game. I always feel like I'm home whenever I get in town! Even on a slammed day, the guys here are the best read more

Been going to to Glory Days for over a decade and never had a bad meal or poor service. Great all American fare!

Great staff very attentive. Fantastic food and atmosphere. Good for a date night, having fun with friends, or family night out

We love this business! Besides great food and being able to watch all sports games at the At the same time. All employees are very helpful and engaged. We have been here over ten times all all great experiences. read more

Wow. I could not believe that the cook sent this out to customer. I ordered from this restaurant for the past year and today was the worse. Manager of this place needs to talk to the cook. Totally a terrible job.. read more

See all

We went back on 5 Oct, and the service and food were both up to their usual high standards. I was able to order the "off menu" Impossible Burger cheesesteak and it was great. Thanks GDG. read more

Glory Days in Burke Virginia is the best place for Monday Burgers andFridays fried shrimp platter I'm treating myself out to the best meal with the best servers. So so clse to home. Chris Laughlin my server may be new but he is so qualified. Thats good training for you. Thanks Mr. Raffertytraining your folk well! read more

simply terrible. waited and waited at bar for a drink and had to wave down the waiter/waitress to get water and beer. the guy had no interest in being at work. waved them down again to order food - disappointed. they managed to ruin a simple cheeseburger. I will NOT be returning!!!! read more

Everybody loves Chris! Chris is definitely the best server there. He is super funny and upbeat and continually made me and my friend laugh. It made me want to come back--which he did tell me to so he could see my Halloween costume! Best server ever 11/10 thanks Chris for brightening my day :) read more

Super happy they were willing to give me at least one tv showing MSNBC for the elections tonight. I had to ask the manager to change one channel. I did ask to make sure they didn't take a ball game away from anyone who was staring at the TV. They even hooked me up with a speaker thing that actually worked. It's interesting to watch the reporting side by side. The food was good. The server was great. However one door in the women's bathroom is all jacked up and the one I went in to didn't have any TP in it. The horror!!! Luckily they had one of those giant rolls on the back of the toilet. Then they didn't have any paper towels in the machine. I mean come on guys!!! Well this is what I get for having to come up here to watch the mid term elections. read more

Glory Days Grill - Oktoberfest Sam Adams - American Near Me - Burke, Virginia

We went here hoping to find a good neighborhood spot. Sadly, we were disappointed. The building is in major disrepair and in need of updates. There were buckets collecting leaks all in several spots. This was also preventing use of many tables. Food was decent for bar food but nothing special. I'd actually give that 3 stars. Service was mixed. I think our server was nice and had good intentions but it took over 20 minutes for our food to arrive. I had to ask our server about it and when he went to check it came right out. I suspect it was sitting in the back for a while and no one brought it out. The place was not busy so there is no good excuse. Our search for a good casual spot continues. read more

An apt name for the establishment ring true...Glory Days...days of past glory. Due to consistent bad service over a span of a week, I will go elsewhere in the future. In the Springfield/Burke area, there was not many choices, Glory Days provided good American cuisine in a sports themed restaurant. The last time I visited, it was enjoyable...my last two visits over a week has changed my perception and I will not be visiting again - in fact, I will be driving to Springfield Mall where there are many more delectable options with better service. My first visit was on 26 Jan/Tuesday, during the tail end of the long snow inspired weekend. My buddy and I ventured out for a late lunch. As expected, it was busy so we sat on the bar, received our drinks, and waited for our bartender/server to return so that we could order our food. We waited, waited, and waited. My buddy put his name on the waiting list for a table because we were hungry and could not get anybody's attention. Ten, fifteen minutes passed and we finally got the attention of the bartender/server where we were able to order food. I ordered the Tuesday taco special and my buddy ordered one of their special burgers. After receiving our food, the next time the bartender/server returned was when she noticed that our drinks were empty. Food good, service not so good. The next visit was on 31 Jan/Sunday and I visited with my wife. Again, service was consistently inept. After taking our drinks and food order, we could not find our server. We had to ask another for water. There was only two of us, yet our food order were mixed up...can we have more water please? The next time we saw our server was when he dropped off the bill while we were in still in the middle of eating... Needless to say, food and drinks are decent, service definitely needs to improve. I will not be returning, I will drive elsewhere for better service - or at least to an establishment where I will be appreciated. read more

Great food, great atmosphere. Always love coming here for a quick bite to eat. Solid wings.

Whoever made my burger deserves a raise because it was MAGNIFICENT!!! I ordered The Glory Burger with a side of old bay seasoned fries! Everything was hot and fresh! I want another one lol read more

This place was pretty good. I got the burger with cedar cheese, bacon, barbecue sauce, and a fried egg. The burger came with a pickle and a choice of a side. I just got the regular fries, which was perfect with the burger. Just an average burger. read more

Ordered takeout from Glory Days this evening - sliders for my youngest, hamburgers for my wife and oldest son, and 48 wings for me and my middle son. I asked for flats only and the young lady who took my order told me that she would try but the kitchen was really busy. Really?! How much extra time does it really take to sort out flats only. I'm convinced she didn't even ask the kitchen! And on top of that it looks like we got extra drummettes! Ridiculous. read more

The service is not what it used to be. It took way to long to receive a drink from the bar. I ordered a beer ahead of my meal, and it did not arrive until after the meal was finished. There must be a disconnect between the waitress taking the order, and the bar attendant delivering the beverage. When I complained, I was told they were short staffed that evening. My experience was not what I expected it to be, and I will visit another restaurant the next time I dine. read more

Update review a year later! Still giving it 2 stars... We went in as a group of 5. 2 kids and 3 adults. After trying to sit us at 2 separate 4 person tables, we asked for a table to actually accommodate our party. We finally sit down and wait for a while before our server comes and greets us and takes our orders. Everything is fine. She takes our food orders next and then we wait. For about 45 minutes. Keep in mind, this is just a Tuesday night and its not even really crowded... So I flag down the manager to see what's going on, and our food is finally brought out. Everything looks great, except one order is wrong, so the manager goes back and fixes the order for us. Food is great, as usual, just definitely not worth the wait. I just don't super get what the problem is with the wait times here. If my family didn't like this place so much for its close proximity, I would just avoid this location until something is changed. read more
