Stopped by Elk River Burgers today and was pleasantly surprised. The burger was cooked just right…read morewith melted cheddar and crisp lettuce, and the fries were hot, fresh, and cut just the way I like them. You can tell they put care into making it a classic hearty meal. The atmosphere feels small town and welcoming with rocking chairs and flowers outside giving it a real front porch vibe that fits perfectly with the local charm. The tea was nasty and there were ants everywhere on the picnic table. You have to eat outside and the outdoor trash can was completely full which took away from the experience. A quick fix with more frequent clean up would make the place shine a lot more. Overall it is still a solid spot for a good old fashioned burger and fries and worth a stop if you are in the area and can't Wait a While

They fry your hamburgers on a flat surface grill right in front of you!! The menu is simple but to the point. The burgers are small, but DELICIOUS!!! You have options to order a single, double, or a triple! There's also a special burgers with a twist! For example, the burgers adding bacon or ham. They also sell hot ham and cheese! Oh! They have grilled cheese sandwiches as well! A nice comfort sandwich! Some of their burger names are: Pig "N" Bull, Sow "N" Cow, or the Farm! No french fries! They do sell chips and sodas. Overall, a FANTASTIC experience! The ladies cooking the burgers as we waited chatted with us. They were very friendly and made us laugh! While this place is small, it is well worth the trip! There's a picnic table outside. Street parking. I see why it's a local favorite!!

Dirt and buildup on table and wall next to booth. Floor was dirty and the bathroom is about the same as stopping at some shady gas station that has the restrooms outside and are never cleaned. Second, the server was nice but seemed to be struggling. We ordered mushrooms and they were given to a different table. We watched her walk away and when the people said they were not there's she laughed picked it back up and brought it to our table. Accidents happen so we just laughed it off. She then came and asked if I wanted a refill to which I replied yes. I had sweet tea. She never returned with my drink. When our food came I asked if I could have my drink back to which she replied oh yes I had to make more tea and it's not ready. I said okay can I have a Pepsi zero and she replied sure. She also said don't you worry if the tea gets done before you leave I won't charge you the extra drink... I replied thank you I appreciate that. Guess what.... I never received the Pepsi zero. I just gave up at this point and ate my food with drink. We were watching the staff in the kitchen (because we were curious why she hadn't brought my tea back) and we noticed there was food sitting in the window for at least 15 minutes. There were 2 employees having social hour in front of the food. Guess what... the food in the window was ours so it was cold once we finally received it. We ate the cold food which probably would have been good if we were not already frustrated and went to the front register to pay and guess what... I still had to pay 2.50 for my tea that I only drank half of and then was left with no drink. I don't come to Noel so me saying I won't be back won't hurt you. I do hope that someone who owns this store pays attention to my post and looks at what is happening in this establishment because with no customers you have no business.

Unfortunately, this establishment is drive through only from Monday-Wednesday which is when we came by. Not a big deal, a bit disappointed but nothing an excellent meal can't fix and the menu looked promising However, this place is not built for drive through food. Their burgers were served in paper wrappers which within seconds the grease had gotten through and poured into my lap. The only ranch they had was salad packet ranch and they provided no containers to pour it into. Another example of how they are not set up for drive through operations. The food took a very long time to get to us and when it finally did the burger was disgusting. Had an extremely off taste like maybe the meat wasn't quite fresh and it actually made me sick. The only reason this place doesn't get a 1 star is because the kids meals came on cool cardboard cards that was really neat and the chicken nuggets were not terrible. Other than that, at least as a drive through option I can't recommend a since that is 50% of their operations it's definitely a poor mark against them as an establishment.
