'Be prepared to wait, this is not fast food' says the sign when you walk in. And it is so worth it! Their hamburgers are out of this world and i can't make myself order anything else. They will put flavors in your soft drink or even make you a phosphate! (Think a vanilla Coke and a cherry syrup in sparkling water! Or vanilla. Or chocolate! So good! ) Our order also included breaded mushrooms - delish! We like to get a milkshake for dessert, a chocolate malt, and we TRY to share it. Not easy since this is so good. Their service is great and I love the old 50s rock and roll they play. There are lots of nostalgic items on the walls like old movie posters, 45 records, old cameras, Coca Cola signs, just fun stuff to look at especially if you're a nostalgic item yourself like we are! read more

great, fresh burgers!! their ranch is the BEST. service was okay, no major red flags. would definitely return for the food

Been here many times for breakfast and lunch. I love the cornbeef hash and the mickey burger (basically a cheeseburger). The burger doesn't come with a side, so you have to add those on. We love the cheese fries and fried mushrooms. Chill vibes inside, not fancy. Service is great and attentive. Lots of parking. read more

Couldn't get service. Sat at a table for 5 minutes and decided to leave. Two servers sat at the bar sucking on ice cubes and looking at their phones. When I called to let them know why we left, the manager said they were busy getting drinks for other tables. Funny thing is, there weren't any other tables that hadn't already been served. read more

Put GREEN OLIVES on it...like the pictures show on the menu!!! F...BLACK OLIVES!! NEVER heard of black olives on a burger?? Yuck

The food was excellent and always has been. Service was great. Biggest complain is that it feels like 30 years since they did upkeep. Place needs new carpet, booths, and bathroom need a total remodel. Feels like the 90s in a bad way instead of the 50s in a good way. But the food is worth it for sure. read more

We enjoyed our stop off on the way from chicago to Kalamazoo -- was hoping for non fast food and had a very decent diner meal. Hubs loved the chicago dogs and the Patty melt was a little off the typical but tasty -- it was a smash burger fyi. Their breakfast menu looked a little extra in a good way. We make this trip several times a year so we will likely stop again. read more

Food was good... but we got there around 7:15 and they close at 8. I wanted the chicken and dumpling soup but they said they had put it away for the night. I said you don't close till 8. It was 7:20 by the time we ordered. It seems like the restaurant is run by young people that are in a hurry to get out. I heard one of them say i am going to lock the door at 7:45 We were done eating way before 8 at home by 8:10. I was just diappointed is all. But food always good. read more

Their grilled cheese is great and the place has the perfect 50's vibe! They are also fairly fast.

Not a bad place, but also nothing special. The latte was a bit too bitter, and I felt like it could've been made better. The staff was okay, but they didn't seem very engaged. Also, the chairs were pretty uncomfortable for sitting long. Probably wouldn't come back unless I had to. read more

I was looking for a regional fast food chain for a quick stop while on the road and accidentally ended up here. My searches led me astray because this isn't a fast food spot. I saw they did takeout so I figured we'd just get it quickly to go. We placed our order and they said it would be 15 minutes. It was actually 45 minutes later that we got our food. Had I known, I wouldn't have ordered because we still had a long drive. My husband and I shared: - Mushroom Swiss Cheeseburger - Schoop's Mickey Cheeseburger - Patty Melt - Schoop's Loops - Irish Nachos - Green River Soda - Green River Milkshake The food wasn't good. The burgers were all dry. The fries were a bit better. It turns out the green river flavor is like a bland sprite. All in all, I wouldn't come back again. read more

Love Tuesday $2 milkshake days! Of course I always have a juicy cheeseburger to go with it.

Stopped in yesterday with my son and we both experienced an allergic reaction from the food we ingested. I'm not really sure what sort of ingredients they use but it seems like maybe we ingested high levels of hormones, I'm not sure. I wouldn't recommend eating here if you're a local. read more

solid burger and malt. The fries are decent. The cozy atmosphere. We enjoyed our meal! read more

Smash burgers are one of my fav things and this place does them well, crispy edges with a juicy patty. The schoop's near me sadly closed and it was one of my favorite spots so I had to check out another one and the quality is almost just as good, would still recommend! read more

Back on Sep 2023. Of course I made a stop. Only recommendation is that the cook take the burger off a wee but sooner. Burger was a bit dry. Other than that fries and cherry coke were excellent. And prices are up as everywhere else read more

Schoop's Hamburgers is half way between my house and Shipshewana, Indiana. Perfect for us to stop for a Friday afternoon lunch. We haven't been to a Schoop's in years but we always remember their hamburgers with the crispy edges. Our lunch was terrific. We ordered a patty melt, one patty cheese burger and the curly fries, which they call 'loops'. Service was excellent. Friendly, fast and accurate. It is fun to look at all of the memorabilia and the music that plays fits the restaurant perfectly. read more

Delicious fresh burgers! My husband isn't always a big fan of smash burgers but these were good. I had a patty melt and it was tasty. My only complaint was there wasn't enough cheese to hold it together so I had to eat it with a knife and fork. read more

We stopped for lunch on our way back to Michigan from Chicago. I told the wife, you pick a spot. She opened the Yelp app and picked a burger joint on our route. Found Schoop's had some good reviews. Nice location not that far off from I-94. I ordered a olive burger and fries. Thankfully our great waiter asked if I wanted mayo or any other toppings. I normally expect mayo with a olive burger but not here. Good to know. It came out like I love them with a crisp edge. Very good burger. Will stop on way thru the area again. read more

Schoop's Hamburgers - Olive burger with mayo and large order of fries - Burgers Near Me - Michigan City, Indiana

WOW!! This establishment was more then worth it. We're traveling from Iowa and this takes my #1 spot for best burger ever! Well technically I added the hash browns to a hamburger and OH MY GOSH IT WAS AMAZING!!!! The prices... CHEAP The food.... THE BEST Also the staff was beyond friendly and helpful with any questions we had and they made sure we were well taken care of. It was a very warm and comforting experience that reminded me of home. Now I'm not normally one to leave reviews but this place definitely hit it out of the park. The interior is like a time capsule from the 60's it was incredible. 10000/10 recommend, honestly we're probably gonna make this a mandatory visit each year :) read more

Love the crispy edge burgers, made to order, delicious soups of the day, great fries and fried mushrooms, crazy good shakes. Must stop if you're in Michigan City. Make sure you're good and hungry too! Burgers are huge. read more

If you are looking for a burger place that has that 50s diner kind of feel, look no further than Schoop's Hamburgers. I've been going to Schoops for many years at one of their many locations and was recently in the area to go to this one. It was around dinnertime and I was hungry. I was craving a good burger and thought this place would fit the bill. I pulled into the lot and walked in. There was a nice crowd and I settled at a seat (you get to seat yourself here!) I decided on a Mushroom and Swiss Burger and inquired about their soup. Their special of the day was a cheeseburger soup so thought I'd be daring and try it. A short bit later I got my soup and then after my burger and fries. All were good tasting and filling (not to mention a nice sized portion). I washed it down with a Mr. Pibb (unlimited refills) and went away happy. I'll definitely go back to Schoop's anywhere in the area as they have great food and excellent service! read more

I sincerely love Schoop's, the 60s atmosphere, the service, and the delicious food. How can I hate what has been named by me, as diner level perfection? But atlas, I have been disappointed but should have let my expectations not exceed me. However, I came into this establishment, wanting a "two egg, toast, and hash brown" combo and an extra order of hash brown. I sat at my dining room table, wanting to indulge in this delicacy, open two of my hash brown boxes just to be confronted with crispy..crunchy..brown like me hashbrowns. Unfortunately, I will not let this mistake tarnish my views and love of Schoop's.. but please, let this not happen again, But I will leave you with this..and only this. read more

I'm done with you schoops. Ordered a tuna SALAD got a tuna melt. GROSS! Fries were cold and soggy. Coffee sandwich and small fries $20 took 20 mins bites to get food. Also change your music.. no one wants to listen to a country western version of fast car ! Are you trying to depress people with your suicidal and food?! read more

"Only" 8.09 for a plain burger? That's wild. There are so many other places to get a good burger that includes cheese at least.

This morning me, my sister and a friend decided to go to Schoops for breakfast. The atmosphere there is always good. The food is good but today it was outstanding. Not sure what is different but I thoroughly enjoyed it. We all had breakfast with sides of sausage gravy. So, so good. Our server Brenda was an old school server. She has excellent service skills, a witty sense of humor and we wanted for nothing. Brenda is def an asset to the industry. Great job Brenda!! read more

Food is way too expensive mediocre and it is 20$ for a triple cheeseburger I can go to McDonald's and get 1 for 7$

Visiting family in NW Indiana and a visit to Schoops was a MUST. Best burgers and milk shakes in all of NW Indiana. Peanut butter milk shake is a must!! Irish nachos are soo good. I can't lie, I order this same thing every time I'm there. Just too good. Also, our waitress was THE BEST and sweetest. read more

This is a diner-esque spot with smash burgers. Stopped in after a reco on Food Network's Jeff Mauro. We ordered two smash burgers with a side of cheese fries and onion rings. This hits the spot. Thin crispy smashed burgers loaded with topping of your choice. The cheese fries, so good! Skip the chains and hit this place up if your around Michigan City. read more

Came in here on a road trip based on the reviews. I have no idea how this place got such good ratings. The server was nice, but it took over an hour to get our food and when it finally arrived it was cold and not tasty. Definitely would not recommend! Also, there were a ton of workers standing around throughout our whole over an hour visit that did nothing!! While one server in the store was busting her butt. read more

Great burgers, friendly waitress. Restaurant was clean. The rest of the staff seem to get along great, which is rare now a days, but was refreshing to see them all with smiles and getting along. read more

I'm in town on a business trip. I'm sad I only discovered this place on my last day. Food was delicious and a large portion. I ordered a double cheeseburger with bacon, no bun. My only complaint is they didn't actually wrap my burger in lettuce so I could pick it up. I ate it with a fork and knife instead. Also ordered some fried mushrooms. Everything was really good. Service was terrific. I believe my servers name was Bree. read more
