    Delicious burgers, lot of unique combinations. Good french fries and dipping sauce. The owner is very friendly, we had a wonderful time learning about her life there in Ferndale. Also how her father lead her into this hamburger stand business after he was so taken by an old place in San Luis Obispo. He was a student at Cal Poly SLO and discovered the local favorite hole in the wall Burger joint, called Scrubby and Lloyd's. Sadly it closed after 40 years in 1998, to this day all the "older" locals fondly recall the burgers, beans and potato salad. Never had any fries, so when someone came in and ordered a burger with fries...all the heads turned and knew he was an out of towner! Don't miss NO BRAND BURGER! Tiny little place with beautiful potted flowers all around. The friendliest staff and amazing food.

    What a diamond in the rough. The atmosphere, location and delicious food made this one of my best experiences in NorCal. Their hamburger meat is made fresh daily and shows in the taste. Good service was just icing on the cake and only if there was a place like this in SoCal. Recommend a thousand times over to anyone visiting to try this amazing burger restaurant it will blow you away!

    Do not get a double! Unless you're super hungry! The hamburgers were juicy and the best kind of messy!

    Sign out on the road.

    I was up in McKinleyville visiting my Brother, and this place was on my mind from a couple years back. It was my favorite meal of my trip, and I knew I had to come back. Well............I made it back, twice, during my trip. Each time, I went with the Big Hoss (Double Cajun Bacon Cheeseburger, fries and a shake...current price $22.00). Absolutely amazing burgers! Huge, juicy, grass fed Humboldt beef. Everything works so well! A great burger! The fries were different than last time (last time was crinkle cut, this time regular fries), but still freshly fried and tasty. First time I got cajun fries (cajun seasoning salt) and then the second time I got regular. I had a strawberry shake my first time and vanilla the second. The fries and the shake were great! Overall, an awesome place. Its about the size of my bathroom, but I'll be damned if they dont crank out the best burgers not only in Humboldt County, but in all of CA. Can't wait until I make it back up there again so I can have another.

    I was looking for a place to stop to get a bite before driving home and man did I pick the right spot! I got a Double Bacon Cheeseburger and it didn't disappoint. The burger was phenomenal! The pattys were cooked to perfection and so juicy. Definitely making this a place to stop by frequently.

    Best burger away from home, period. I have been her many times in the past and today had a burger and the onion rings. The onion rings were amazing crunchy deliciousness.

    Good size for 2 burger + sides, but not worth the $45. Burgers are missing seasoning and ketchup had ants all over it.

    Waiting 25 minutes for a $20+ burger and undercooked fries is not a good business model.

I wasn't happy about it but I decided to let it slide and hoped the food would make up for it. I was extremely disappointed with the food. My eggs Benny's egg whites were still runny, English muffin absolutely soggy and disgusting, with a thin slice of deli ham. The potatoes (that I wasn't informed or asked if I wanted onions or peppers by the way) were so grease soaked and cold that they were actually inedible. My partner's chicken fried steak was way overcooked, hard and tough. Just all around terrible. TLDR; given the completely wrong drink, food was impossible to get down, and no concern of my uneaten food by the server or owner. Not worth it at all.

The room has some really cool farm-type decorations, a hardwood floor, but the tables are far enough apart that you can talk to your guests and not have trouble hearing each other. The last question below was if a staff member requested me to leave a review - she did; however, I always like to share my experiences in case someone else has any questions.

Our service was 5 star which helped since we were exhausted. I have a super strong recommendation for the Cali 101 sandwich. It might be one of the sandwiches I've ever had. The fried parmesan on the tops of the bread sealed the deal. My wife asked for a custom burger. Mind you, the kitchen was closing but chef pulled off a beautiful dish. I don't normally photo food but wish I did. My wife goes bun-less and they served the dish on a bed of spinach (which she requested and they had to dig for it). To do all that as the kitchen is closing says something. They could have just thrown it on top. I am completely stealing that one. I love amber ale and they make a good one. I hope we can squeeze one last visit in before we leave.

She also had a great sense of humor that made us feel completely at home. On top of that, the atmosphere was incredible -- even the people around us were interactive and engaged in conversation despite us not knowing each other. The whole night was filled with great energy, shared laughs, and an overall memorable experience.

I got to enjoy what I long for all year. The food was, as always a 10 out of 10. Shout out to the amazing chef who made the shrimp fettuccine Alfredo. Another shout out to Alexis, who brought us a mini loaf of the most delicious brioche bread that comes with the dinner; because what we ordered didn't include the bread we asked if we could have it and she made it happen.
