We were staying at the McMenamin's in Tacoma for the Thanksgiving weekend and our server recommended Spanky Burger. I'm so glad they did. The atmosphere was very relaxed and the food was just amazing. All three of us had the sourdough and mushroom burger, and it was sooooo good. It was juicy, flavorful, cheese-y, just everything you could want. I got a side salad instead of fries, I couldn't believe how huge it was, very fresh and had lots of veggies, even black olives, and also crispy onions. My friend ordered onion rings and fries for the table. The onion rings were very crispy and delicious, the fries were standard, but good. Service here was so great. The woman who seemed to be a manager or owner was so friendly and kind. The other employees were also very polite and nice. I wish they had a Spanky burger here in Portland. Then again, I might be in trouble if they did. read more

I made a big mistake by ordering at IHOPS the same food choices that I order at Spanky Burger: hamburger, fries, and a drink. IHOPS cost more and definitely does not come close to the great tasting burger & fries from Spanky. Take my word for it. read more

Always a favorite for us. We usually uber eats so this is based on delivery. Sourdough cheeseburger is my go to. Fries are crisp and seasoned well. My husband likes the cheese burgers and they make those with extra work. I usually crave their fries and onion rings, really recommend those. We enjoy their originality and simplicity at the same time. Food comes out with some time and it comes out flavorful. Their staff is super nice and helpful as well. read more

Spanky Burger and Brew - Burgers Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

For somebody with celiac disease or gluten-free, this place is great and they have a good wings that are not gluten-free. Good customer service, very safe food handling, and very serious about all allergies. However, I will say the food is pretty plain aside the chicken wings. In my opinion, I got a gluten-free cheeseburger, I've gotten a veggie burger, and I also got the gluten-free chicken tenders that I had high hopes for however it was very underseasoned. All of it is well cooked, but just a very bland. read more

Food was yummy lots of flavors. I wish they put in some napkins, cutlery and condiments. (My fault for not checking before I left) The onions rings were good and crispy. The Sourdough Mushroom Burger was perfect, next time I will order it without lettuce and tomatos. Staff was friendly and helpful. Side of ranch cost you $.39 each They are closed on Saturdays Parking is street or angle parking read more

Food is fine, nothing special. Staff is sweet and helpful. However, every time I've been inside the last few months, it's very cold. I guess they like their AC. But yeah, it's a fine place to stop in for a burger. I've only had the Spanky burger though, so I can't speak to any of their special burgers -- I'll just say they have a LOT of choices. read more

Been gluten free for years and these chicken strips are life changing. If I had to eat one thing for the rest of my life this would be it! Also gluten free buns here are the best, squishy and soft just like they are supposed to!! Very considerate of gluten allergies/sensitivities!! read more

This is one of the best little spots for a burger and milkshake. I can take my young kids here and the service is efficient and friendly. There are tvs on to watch. The food is great and affordable. There are usually a good amount of people enjoying the place, lively but not too busy. read more

Love this place! Glad you are able dine in now. Great burgers and good music taste! read more

The food was delicious and fresh. Employees friendly. They asked how we liked the food and waved us good bye. The food was done fast, reasonably priced. would recommend and will be returning to try aloha burger. Sidewinder potatoes were also delicious, onion rings were 10/10. read more

The food at Spanky burger has always hit the spot for me. The sidewinder fries are the best and the special spanky sauce is a must! Their milkshakes are really really good too and I don't even like milkshakes much. Had to try when I saw milkshakes being doordashed. read more

SALMON burger periodt Bless yourself and order you one or two today. it is officially the best salmon burger I've ever had in my entire life. It is not a salmon patty. It is more like a salmon fillet that's grilled with a soft bun with some pretty amazing coleslaw with pickles. fries are good too too crispy on the outside cell phone inside the only way to eat them and they come with three different fries that are all pretty good. I prefer the dirty one. I can't remember the name I know in front of it and it's super good. We also ordered veggie burger too, but once I had the salmon burger, there was no going back for me. The only thing I ordered. The unfortunate part is that it doesn't offer any dine in service, it's only takeout. So the only way to be able to eat your burger while its hot is in the car. read more

So grateful to have a celiac friendly burger place in Tacoma. I usually order a bacon cheeseburger and you can't go wrong, great every time. I've also had the gf chicken strips too which were great. The house fry sauce and burger sauce is so good. read more

I would like to think that there are a few pairings with peanut butter that are superior to anything else - peanut butter and jam, peanut butter and chocolate, peanut sauce and Thai fresh spring rolls and peanut butter on a burger. YEAP! I said it peanut butter on a burger! Spanky does peanut butter on a burger Justice and with brilliance. The salty of the bacon, the crunch of the lettuce, the twang of the pickle, the spice of the red onion, the sweetness of the bun and the savory of the beef that's tied together with the rich, creamy, nuttiness of the peanut butter...it hits all flavor profiles! I love the Sidewinder fries and the House Sauce! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside plus salty with the right amount of spices equals perfect fries! read more

Tried ordering on grubhub but my app was glitching. I ended up calling the restaurant and was met with great costumer service who was able to adjust and double check ingredients to meet my strict diet restrictions. Honestly , the gluten free options were SO tasty and I was sooooooo happy to have found some food that was fresh, delicious and not processed. read more

Friendly staff. Wait was short. Decent priced. Sad was not do one in but we ordered anyway. Fries were golden a. Crisp. Should have ordered the double burger. Was just a little less beef that I was hoping for 1/4 lb no doubt. I'd come here again read more

If you even remotely like burgers and shakes.. do NOT miss out on this joint! It is in a prime location on 6th.. super fun to try different brewers/ cideries in the area and then pick up a burger of your choice! They have lots to choose from and even have veggie options! I recommend getting the spicy burger with a beyond patty. Unfortunately, they never opened fully after COVID, but I would still recommend stopping by, or ordering ahead of time and picking up. Quick service usually, and love the walk up concept. read more

Burger and fries were great and the suggestion of the Island Daiquiri Cider was on the money. Nice staff and they were very knowledge on allergens. Having a dedicated fryer for the fries was very comforting for my wife that has Celiac. read more

The burgers are substantial and . I usually get the bacon cheese burger . The sidewinder fries are the best fries created, I thought they would be like wedges (which I don't like), but they're not! More like extra area for a fried crisp with soft potato inside. Great ranch and house sauce to go with too. Good place to pop into with a 6th Ave neighborhood feel. Get on with your cheat day here! read more

We ordered a buffalo chicken burger and upgraded the fries and the grilled turkey burger with onion rings. They didn't give us our correct order nor was the food any good. It ended up being a regular chicken burger that was flavorless and the fries didn't even have salt on them. The grilled turkey burger was cold on the inside, had no seasoning and was just awful. It was ordered with the onion rings that were also flavorless. Wrong order and tasteless food. read more

Triple Bacon Cheeseburger w/ Sidewinder fries Wait time wasn't bad had my food in less than 20 minutes and pricing was on par with the both the portion and quality of the food. Paid 18. The triple Pattie Bacon Cheese Burger was perfectly prepared. Practically melted in my mouth. The Side winder fries are a great remix of your traditional potato styled "jojo's". The menu had a lot of options that I'm looking forward to trying in the future. Only down side is the only to go option. Would love if they opened back up but so far this is the best burger in Tacoma I've had! read more

My small company just moved down from Seattle. An employee that had previously lived in Tacoma recommended Spanky Burger for our weekly staff lunch meeting. We were extremely shocked when we got there and discovered that they still have not opened their indoor seating after the 2020 mess that shut down indoor seating has all ended everywhere else. WTH? Also the only parking they have is in the sketchy back alley and you can't see the business from there. Not somewhere I'd like to be after dark. read more

ONE OF THE BEST BURGERS EVER!!!!! 9.5/10 not just as a burger but as an all time great dish! Patties were crisp, but still juicy. Perfect ratio of cheese to burger. I also recommend adding bacon because they don't skimp. Sidewinder fries are out of this world, hell even the ranch was amaze balls. Tied with fat burger in LA as one of the best foods I have ever put in my face. read more

We have tried Spanky's multiple times... a few reasons why I give it three stars. 1: They still have their entryway blocked from Covid-19 days. Must be more convenient for them, but it's not very convenient for customers when it's cold outside. My suggestion would be to keep the restaurant "to-go only" but allow people to stand or sit inside while the wait, especially during winter. 2: They have left out side sauces and given nearly cold fries multiple times but we don't find out until we get home since it's to-go only. Pretty frustrating since the prices are the same as sit down restaurants in the area. 3: Burger patty / burger as a whole just feels small for the price. I like their salads and creative menu options but with so many burger options in North Tacoma - this one just isn't going to be top of list for me. read more

Sparky Burgers is one of the best burger spots in Washington. The burgers are so good. The house sauces are a must! The service was excellent. Oh try the shakes! read more

Unfortunately their customer service is subpar. They've forgotten to give me sauce and said oh well and have also given me the wrong burger. When mentioned to them, they said they needed proof. Why would someone lie about that? There are too many good burger places in the area for them to have snooty read more

I discovered Spanky Burgers years ago when they were mentioned by the Evening show. Since that one discovery, everytime im in the area, no matter who i'm with, I always let them try Spankys. Friends and family have raved and sometimes ask to see if we can just take a trip to visit. Except my fiance but thats because he is a little picky when it comes to burgers and patties. To me, their burgers are spectacular. Patties well cooked and a bit juicy. Each bite always oozes with sauce. The only thing that i have to down star on is their onion rings. We ordered it on the side and each bite into it, you cant find a piece of onion. Its basically a battered up circle. Overall, i will still continue to visit. Now that i live closer to the area, Spanky's will expect to see my face more often. My recommendation for a first burger is their Chipotle Bacon Burger. A kicking taste that makes me crave more. Although, i can only finish half a burger and save the rest for later. read more

Burger is great every time! Their buns are really good but I prefer mine lettuce wrapped, you can really taste the burger that way. Sidewinder potatoes are the best version of a fry that I've had in a long time! So crunchy on the outside and oh so good! I'm not sure why their inside/seating area is closed though, would love to eat my lunch there sometime. read more

staff were extremely disrespectful! came in with a large group after a 5 hour car ride needing the bathroom and some burgers. never even got the food. we're refused service to the bathroom the minute we walked in and started looking at the menu. rude lady at counter yelled at our group for walking in a "restricted area" that wasnt very obvious that it was restricted. do not come here with large group. read more

This place is take out only would be nice if it said that somewhere and how long ago was Covid and they still can't seem to open all the way just become a food truck not even outdoor seating and how are u a brew spot that only has take out smh read more

Amazing burgers. Great service. Goood fries. Timely service. Satisfaction guaranteed!

Was looking for burger place to go eat at. Lol, apparently this place caught my attention. They have a weird name, "Spanky Burger" like what?! It's been a while since I go to Tacoma, so everything looks new and flashy to me. They have so many options to choose from on their menu. Took me like 10 minutes to decide what I want. At the end, I got their "Fried Chicken Burger." The chicken was fried but not crispy enough, but it still tasted great though. Their fries are freshly made because it was busy so they just have to keep making new batches of fries. Service is friendly and their price for their food is decent as well. Do recommend this place if you're a burger lover like me! :) read more

No indoor seating, so had to eat in my car. Ordered the spanky cheese burger, good burger, fresh veggies but not a fan of the bun or the spanky sauce ( too much sweet relish for me). Fries are thick cut and I would have preferred them cooked a bit more for a better crunch. Chipotle mayo sauce was very good. read more

The very BEST hamburger of ANY kind i have ever had in my 70 years! And thats a lot of burgers! Absolutely delicious!! The bacon double cheeseburger is just superb!! Hats off to the owner read more

My friend and I were looking for some good fries, and this place had some nice fries pics so thanks Yelpers! Plus the name was so interesting, my friend and I wanted to come in to scope it out. They have a pretty big menu so we took our time to look over the menu. The cashier saw us and asked if we had any questions and did answer our questions as well as how their sides work. We got our food a little later than I thought we would but it was so worth. First of all, they toast their buns, thank you! Their burger patties are also delicious! I got the sweet ahola burger and it was probably one of my favorite pineapple burgers out there. Definitely need to try their other burgers and maybe a shake next time. read more

This place has really good burgers I will be coming back, this place is so roomy, top tier service , I will be coming back

On the fence about this place. Everyone raves about the potato nachos, I don't think they are they great. All though good it's too over the top for me and makes me sleep (all those carbs). Spanky burger is good but nothing spectacular. Service is always kind and inviting. They don't allow dine in services and no where to sit and wait for your to go order so the restaurant set up it's self it not customer friendly. I've been here 3 times and still unsure if I like it all that much! Is convenient for a decent and quick lunch when in the area though. read more
