    Smashburgers are my favorite! I was really excited to finally try Hardpressed while at Ink Factory. Hubby placed our order, received a buzzer then picked it up a few minutes later. I went with the single Hardpressed burger and he chose the double Hardpressed burger. We shared a regular order of fries. The burger itself was meaty and cheesy, perfectly balanced with the garlic aioli, pickles and caramelized onions. Salted well, just the right amount of greasiness. The bun soaked up everything well. Hubby really enjoyed his double. The fries were hand-cut and crispy yet still pillowy inside. All in all, Hardpressed is serving up great burgers and fries. Simple menu that's executed well!

    Was excited to try their burgers. Ordered two hard pressed burgers, one double patty and the Pressed fries. Overall the flavors were decent but found the patties a little too pressed for my liking. It was just really crunchy. My bf enjoyed it much more than I did. The fries were OK but had too much sauce on it. Enjoyed the jalapeños though. They're set up outside of the sink Factory and has indoor and outdoor seating.

    This place is very good. The food is made to order( it's a food truck). Every thing was hot. I enjoyed this meal till the last bite. I will certainly stop by when I'm in the area.

    Absolutely delicious smash burgers and fries outside of Ink Factory Brewing! The burgers were perfectly crispy on the edges, juicy inside, and packed with flavor. The fries were golden, crispy, and seasoned just right. Fast service, friendly staff, and a must if you're at Ink Factory! Availability depends on the day.

    This line is shorter;)

    I tried Hard Pressed foodtruck a few months back. I was at Jax Beach and did a search on Yelp and found they were close by. They are located in the parking lot of Ink Factory Brewing. I waited to order about 10 minutes. It was a busy Friday night, so the wait time for my food was about 20-30 minutes. It was worth the wait! I ate in my car as I didn't want the food to get cold lol. I had a single cheeseburger with everything and fries with beer cheese. The burger was so juicy and flavorful! I don't know what kind of seasoning they used, but it was on point. And I liked how they put the bun on the grill. The fries were hot and deliscious. I don't typically order fries, but I'm so glad I ordered on this occasion. I usually dip in ketchup, but I highly recommend the beer cheese. Even with the long wait, I will absolutely go back to Hard Pressed again soon!

    This food truck has some of the best burgers ever. Flavor and texture were nice. Prices are fair. Service was fine. Would like to try again sometime. It's a food truck so no seating.

    If you haven't tried Hard Pressed Burger yet, you are missing out on the best burger in Jax. The smash burgers are a special blend of short rib and brisket smashed into caramelized onions, topped with American cheese plus their amazing house pickles and garlic aioli. Every flavor works perfectly together to create delicious bites. I love pairing my double with their garlic parm fries, or skipping fries and getting the triple. They do pop ups around town but we are lucky to have them permanently posted at Ink Factory Brewing Th-Sun of each week. You can grab a seat and a beer inside IFB while waiting on your HPB order. It's the perfect setup!

    Great service. Social media brought us in. The sloppy Joe special was delish but didn't look exactly like the pic the regular burger was also yummy. Hey a double or a triple. The crust was on point. Fries good and crispy and cheese sauce legit

    Wow!!! Double jalapeño bacon burger!!!

    Wow wow wow! my husband wanted a burger so we decided to give this place a try and I'm so mad that we tried it. Lol it is the best freaking burger I think I've ever had in my life. I thought I was gonna need a box because it was so big, but I surprised myself I couldn't stop eating it definitely new fans!!!! People were amazing as well!!!

    Best smash burger ever

    These are the best burgers you will ever have in your life and if you don't try them then you might as well just seek therapy bc there is something wrong with you. Seriously rethink your life. The pickles are so mf good they are tangy af. The burgers get crispy on the edges and it's delicious. I took my parents to get HP and they both said they would rather have the burgers as a child than me which is fine I completely agree. 12/10

    Slider Rider - Mercury burger

    Slider Rider is a burger truck where it has this cute space theme - they offer 3 different types of…read moreburgers (Saturn, Mars, and Mercury), a grilled chicken sandwich (Neptune), Venus Wings, fries, and kid options. You can also make any of the burgers using Beyond Meat! We ordered: +the Mercury - made with 2 patties of grass-fed halal beef, yellow American cheese, caramelized onions, crunchy potatoes, Galaxy sauce, Rocket Sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions on a potato bun +Cosmic Fries - shoestring fries with house seasoning and Parmesan, served with a side of Cosmic sauce The burgers were described as 'smashburgers', so the patties were cooked all the way through (which I prefer!); the burger itself was actually okay, but there was something in there that made it taste slightly off - either it was the caramelized onions, the Galaxy sauce, or the Rocket sauce, there was something that was a bit too sugary/sweet; I think without this element, the burger would have been better! Maybe I'd ask for the sauces to be served on the side. The fries were okay - they did fill the styrofoam box to the brim and was generous in serving two cups of the Cosmic sauce; I think these could have been dropped fresh, as when we received them, they seemed as if they were prepared in advance and was sitting for a bit. Service was super friendly and welcoming! It's located off of Zetts, just down from Touchless Car Wash; note that this area can get jampacked and backed up on the weekends where everyone is trying to get their vehicle washed! Getting in and out can be a bit of a pain, and there are some temporary parking available. +friendly service! +located down from touchless Car Wash +off road parking available

I ordered online for takeout and got the Mercury combo (Mercury burger & cosmic fries) for 15$ and the Venus wings for 135. The mercury burger was by far my favorite item I had but i was expecting that it would be a little bigger with the price tag but I ain't mad at it, it was still a great burger nonetheless. The cosmic fries were below average and that could stem from the way the fries are made (shoestring style) but even then the seasoning on it was nothing special. The cosmic fries came with a cosmic sauce that was great and was a perfect addition to the burger. The Venus wings were solic with pretty good texture but ridiculously overpriced with a price tag of 13$ for 5 wings which is a scam, if you charging 15$ for wings they gotta be the best wings ever (they weren't). The Buffalo sauce that comes with the wings was definitely hot and the bba and ranch were decent. All in all, it's a solid spot that ! could see myself coming back to for their Mercury burger.

The restaurant was very clean and large TV screens playing K-pop music as far as the food. There was a wide variety of beef, pork, chicken and certain seafood, like shrimp and octopus appetizers were included. We chose the cheesy corn the popcorn chicken both were very good. We had a fit full tasting of all the choices. We enjoyed the spicy pork belly, the spicy beef and the teriyaki chicken were our favorites. Just make sure you get there early enough as a place fills up quickly and people were waiting outside by the time we were finished there is a two hour table limit, but that didn't seem to be a problem for us. Try it out if you're in the mood for Korean barbecue plenty of food good service and very helpful staff

"One taco" he said. Oh look- they have tostadas he said (my fav). Alright. I wasn't going to have ice cream anyway- I can have a tostada. Mr. one taco ended up with three because they don't sell them al la carte. Ha-ha. So John loved his tacos that we carefully ate in the new car parked just a few feet away from the food truck. My tostada had a puddle of juices that by the end- had ruined the shell. My food was good- but not great, meanwhile John compared it to one of our favorite places and said he liked it better. OH- ok! Guess we will be doing tacos and ice cream in the future. Enjoy.
