K's is a legend. I grew up going here. The current owner, Michael,'is awesome and has continued that legacy. We don't often (to take care of our cholesterol, etc) but even when we walk by the window doing other business in downtown Troy, if Michael sees us from behind the counter, he will wave and smile through the window. You just don't see that anymore today. Amazing. I'd pay $10 for a burger with that atmosphere. Love this about Troy OH USA! read more

This place was wonderful. I came with my parents and it really is a step back in time. I also encourage to look at the menu prices because there is nowhere you can still get good for those prices. The people working there were very nice. You order at a counter and pick it up at the same place and sit at a booth anywhere you want. It's very nostalgic in there my parents were big fans. I had a chicken salad sandwich, fries, and a side of potato salad and it was all pretty good. I ate it all and my parents had a burger and a bacon egg and cheese sandwich and they loved there's. Overall it was a great little spot and we will all be back to try the rest of the menu soon! read more

Well, the food is good, if you don't look at the dirt on the wall or the floor. It needs a good cleaning. One booth has the stuffing popping out of the seat. I understand retro, but things were clean and taken care of back in the day. read more

Great food, uniquely prepared burgers in a "wet" grill. Great fresh homemade sides, Friendly staff, great service. Very busy at peak times so be prepared for a wait and may stand in line for a few to place order for booths or tables. Great service at counter. Neighborhood place with many regulars. Everyone is friendly and great conversations. Awesome retro diner atmosphere! read more

Old fashion hamburger diner. Takes you back to when you were a kid. The home made pies are good and the milkshakes are even better. A bit cramp during busy hours but worth it! read more

We were in Troy for the solar eclipse and decided to stop into K's for breakfast. The retro sign outside caught our eye so we had to check them out. They originally opened in 1935 so it has a very homey diner feel. It was clean and well taken care of. We ordered at the counter, then seated ourselves. It definitely has a townie feel but we didn't feel too out of place with our matching Eclipse tshirts. The food was ready quickly and was very good. We got breakfast sandwiches and I was surprised at how much bacon they added to them, especially at that price! Our two breakfasts cost under $15 total! read more

Very good burger for the price. Not a fan of the shredded lettuce but overall excellent and will return again. Excellent Onion Rings Staff matches the old school ambiance of the place. Was not a fan of the vanilla malt, it has a strong maple syrup flavor. read more

Stopped in for lunch during the Strawberry Festival. It was great to have a booth out of the heat. We had cheeseburgers and fries. They were great. The prices were great too. It's a cute old style diner. You order at the counter and they call you to pick it up. I want to go back on a calmer weekday and check out those desserts. read more

FIGHTING INFLATION!! I went for breakfast but ended up getting lunch/dinner options. Sit yourself then go up to the counter to order. I got a Hamburger, eggs, onion rings, fries and a Frosted Malt. The burger was fried so it was too greasy for me. The onion rings were perfect- nice batter and broke straight through. The price alone is enough to give this place a try. Overall, I would come back. read more

This place is like a old 60's diner. It has counter seating and booths. Our first time eating here and we didn't know that if you don't sit at the counter you have to go up and order, only noticed after seeing someone else go up. We ordered burgers and fries, single for my wife and a double for me. The patties are small and thin on a full size bun, would you be better on slider buns because it was way to much bread for the meat. Cheese on the burger wasn't melted and not getting waited on at booths will keep me from going back. Staff was friendly but it was like they had regulars that got their attention and left others to fend for themselves. read more

this place was awesome we messed up are order and they remade, if your hungry in Troy come eat here, it's has the best food and service in the circle. It's a very nice a pretty place with a nice view in the summer with Ambiance read more

K's Hamburger Shop is a cute little coffee shop, that's a step back in time. They had solid friendly service and the food was classic diner food. My wife and I were there for breakfast, so we each got breakfast sandwiches, one order of hash browns and a coffee. Everything was well prepared and the cost was a step back in time as well! I thought the server was mistaken when he told me $13.80 for breakfast for two! read more

A old school diner. It is a little Crammed in there but the food is very good. Calm and relaxed atmosphere plus the food comes pretty quick. Overall I would recommend. read more

Shockingly bad service for just plain Jane food. To start, there is no signage when you walk in telling you where or order or sit. After finally figuring it out by asking another customer, I waited at the counter for over 5 minutes while everyone talked and no one took my order. Finally, a young guy looked up at me and said "We aren't rude, we will get to you soon." I finally ordered from an older woman who proceeded to get my drink order wrong. No big deal, accidents happen- and I was told to take a seat and they'd call my name to bring my food. 30 mins later, they finally called my name- and had messed up my order. It took another 5 mins to flag down a woman to talk to who then got the woman who took my order. The order taker then proceeded to argue with me about what I had ordered until I pulled out my phone and showed her the typed out order that I had brought to the counter and read from. Another 5 mins later and finally the missing food appears. I get that the vibe is supposed to be 50s diner but that doesn't mean the service speed has to be as slow as the 50s. read more

Classic, old school hamburger shop. I may be biased as I grew up in Troy, but if you're looking for an inexpensive, solid diner lunch, this is it! My only complaint is I do wish they'd have more protein options as I personally don't eat beef or pork. But, duh, this IS a hamburger shop, so... Their grilled cheese sandwich and kringle fries are on point. Any flavor of frosted malt is dreamy in a cup! And the milkshakes come like your girl...with a little extra in the can! If you're in Troy, stop in at K's. See why the locals love if! read more

I decided to try this hamburger diner for the first time on Jan 29th 2025 at 2 pm. I walked in and they were about 5 or 6 workers and about 6 customers sitting down. There are signs for carry out but nothing says what to do for dine-in. I stand at the counter and not a single worker acknowledges my existence. Not a hello, how are you doing, you need to be at this register, nothing. No one even talked to me. No one even looked at my direction. I was nobody to these people. It wasn't busy at at all. I waited 8 whole minutes until someone who passed by me 4 times finally told me to wait. Not a hello. Nothing. Just wait. I have never had this horrible of a customer experience at a restaurant. I would give negative stars if possible. Don't go there. It's a huge waste of time. Rudest people ever. read more

OMG! Can't say enough about this place the food was AMAZING! Our burgers were made fresh, not premade and heated up! EVERYTHING we had was excellent! The staff was very nice and accommodating. Can't wait to go back! read more

Step back in time for sure. Order at the counter and pick it up yourself. Great burgers, fries, onion rings and malts.This is my second time eating at K's. They did not disappoint. read more

This place used to be excellent. It has its own set of locals who hold it up. You can't deny the food is nostalgic in a sense and you're going to a burger joint, so expect that. Some get all worked up about their ordering process. Don't let that deter you. This place has always ordered at the counter. There's a big sign that says so. Get the frosty with their fries and burger. K's has been doing the fry dipping in frosty before Wendy's. read more

Eating here brings memories of the old school days of this type of restaurant. I have eaten here twice and both times everything was great. I will definitely be back, probably sooner than later. read more

One of the best cheeseburgers I've had! Reminds of the old diners I used to go to with my grandma.

The food is just average. The service is extremely slow. You get the impression the employees are fighting, and angry most if the tome. There is no ambiance. read more

Old school hamburger shop. If busy, it's going to take a bit of time but that's expected and the food is worth it. You can taste it's homemade. Prices are much cheaper than fast food. read more

This is definitely a must try if you enjoy hamburgers! The hamburgers are definitely amazing and the prices are always so cheap for what you can get! I love being able to get a burger, fries, and, milkshake for $10. The value is amazing and the food can't be beat! read more

This is a local legend of a greasy spoon, and all that entails. It's not amazing food. It's an old place, but it's not incredibly Well kept. I generally avoid this place. It's a little kitty, but it's not in my top five dependable places. They claim not to change the grease since Way way way back, and that is no real claim to fame. read more

It's ok, not bad at all, but I think I was expecting more, or maybe I didn't order right... Solid 3.6 stars that I'll round up to 4... I was there on a Saturday, late morning/early afternoon, and wasn't really in the mood for a big breakfast nor a big, greasy spoon lunch ("Then WHY did you specifically plan to go to Troy's most famous 'greasy spoon' joint," you might rightly ask!!) I think I was hoping they'd have more of a variety, either that or I'm HOPELESSLY spoiled by E. Coast diners!! I should have gotten one of their namesake burgers, all very reasonably priced, along with their classic crinkle-cut fries, or maybe have come in earlier for a nice hefty breakfast. Instead, I got an egg and cheese sandwich on toast and "hash browns," which turned out to be one McDonald's style potato patty. That and a cup of coffee, and I was out of there for under(whelmed) $5.00. Order your meal at the counter, then find a seat at the SUPER authentic, cozy, oooozing old-style country charm counter or one of the booths. If I were a mean, awful person, or actually a living, breathing basket of unfulfilled expectations, I'd keep complaining, but this place is what it is, a wonderful cultural institution that's been doing what it does (with or without my approval!!) since 1932!! Oh, and don't forget, cash, no credit cards, missy/fella!! ENJOY!! read more

Food always Hot and Fresh, Cooked to Order. Friendly Staff, Delicious Homemade Pie. In the Heart of Doen Town Troy Ohio

The staff was one of a kind. It was like going to that friends house that pretty much treats you like "mi casa es su casa"! There's no fake pleasing. A lot of locals go here, I asked what to get, he said the double cheeseburger, cooked in grease, not grilled. Glad I asked. The interior looks like it was never changed from the 50's, just maintained well. I had onion rings with my burger and a Diet Coke. Will visit again. read more

My third and last time eating here, I don't understand how people love this restaurant I did it one time, it was packed the food was terrible, there was a dead roach on the floor in the walkway right where we were eating! We left with the food basically untouched and uneaten never again! I don't understand the hype of this restaurant it was gross and bad service! read more

Classic American diner. Friendly people. No nonsense food. A step back in time. I had the grilled pork tenderloin and it was tender. Hubby had cheeseburger with onion rings. No frills, but yummy. So reasonably priced, we sprung for chocolate malt and apple pie a la mode. Left feeling great, especially since the older crowd made us feel young again. Haha. read more
