    Smash burger and onion rings
    daniel n.

    The grill at lovers point was an institution, and its vacancy left a hole on the landmark that is Lover's Point. I was worried that whoever took over the spot would not do it justice. Those fears were put aside when Snack Shack opened and they slowly built out a great little menu! I love their onion rings and their smash burgers are delicious. Keep up the good work guys!!

    So excited to see that the people from Stokes Adobe took over this awesome place. I was just as excited to hear that they didn't just phone it in with subpar food and a great view. The smash burger was super tasty with a great crust and just the right amount of onions and lettuce. The price was fair for the quality and you really can beat the view! There was ample bench seating over looking Lovers Point. The staff was friendly and the food came out fast. This will definitely get more visits from me!

    Menu 3/8/25

    Exactly what you would want in a beach/cove side snack shack. The smell of fried food/fries in the air, seeing people walk around with soft serve, the line moving quick, the menu isn't overly complicated. It was the perfect way to end our afternoon after wandering around Monterey. The kids enjoyed "Dirt in a Cup", basically soft served ice cream topped with gummy worms and oreos... I mean, come on lol Making the drive along the coast up/down to Lovers Point is a must do every single time, and I know stopping by the Snack Shack will be something my kids will want to do whenever we're in the area. Check out the photo of the menu I posted (as of 3/8/25).

    Just way overpriced. Good but silly expensive. Miss the old place. Just as good and inexpensive for families to eat.

Overall, the burgers and salad were satisfying, and the restaurant had a great casual burger-joint vibe. Starting with the Works Burger, which was the highlight of the meal. The patty was juicy and well-seasoned, and the combination of avocado, bacon, and sauce added a lot of flavor. Everything worked well together and made the burger feel indulgent. That said, it could have used more mushrooms, and it leaned a bit too heavy on the sauce. The bun was also a little soft, if it had been toasted or slightly charred, it would have held up better to the sauce and added a nice texture and flavor contrast. Next was the Copeland Mushroom Burger. This one had a juicy patty topped with mushrooms and grilled onions. The amount of mushrooms was good, and the cheese paired really nicely with the toppings. The grilled onions were a nice touch and didn't overpower the burger at all. While it was solid and enjoyable, it didn't feel particularly unique, more like a burger you could recreate at home. Similar to the Works Burger, it was a bit too saucy and could have benefited from a toasted or charred bun for more structure and flavor. The Grilled Chicken Salad was excellent. It came with generous portions of grilled chicken and bacon, plus half an avocado. Everything tasted fresh, and it felt like a healthy, well-balanced option. No complaints here, definitely a great choice if you're looking for a lighter dish. Service was fast and friendly, and the overall atmosphere was nice. It definitely has that classic burger-joint feel. Overall, a solid spot with good food and a good vibe.

I had the Wild West burger with fries, and let me tell you... even on a slightly overcast day, that burger transported me straight to a sunny summer afternoon at the park. The atmosphere is just as wonderful as the food. Comfy chairs, board games, books--it's such a cozy and delightful spot to relax. The service was incredibly friendly, too. Highly recommend!

The sesame seed bun was soft, produce was fresh, cheese perfectly melted, and the patty was well-seasoned and decently juicy. That said, it needed more sauce and overall juiciness to really push it over the top. A little extra flavor punch would've made a big difference. The Elvis Burger (7.5/10) was similar: solid but not exceptional. It lacked the seasoning and moisture I was hoping for, and once again, more sauce would have helped bring everything together. Nothing bad, just left me wanting a bit more oomph. Now the good stuff, service and ambiance were excellent. Our server was friendly, upbeat, and genuinely seemed happy to be there, which made the whole experience better. The vibe of the place is awesome: retro '80s burger joint feel with fun music, books, games, and lots of greenery (major shoutout to the plants). It's a cool hangout spot with character.Only downside our table was oddly sticky. Come for the chill vibes, solid service, and a good burger. Just don't expect the best burger of your life. Worth checking out if you're in the area!
