    Fungi Burger & Fresh Crispy Fries
    Donna P.

    Burger Dock always has a great variety of burgers and rotating specials. You walk up to the counter to order, then they bring the food to your table. During the warmer weather, there is a nice outdoor patio and they roll up the back doors to enjoy the fresh air. This time we both ordered the Fun Guy Burgers. Topped with Swiss cheese,, Sautéed Mushrooms, Tomato, Spicy Arugula, Grilled Onions, and a Garlic Aioli. The combination leaves a very tasty bite every time. We both forgot the burgers come with firs, so we ordered a small side. They are fresh potatoes, thinly cut. Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. They have a decent selection of beverages including beers and Tractor sodas (which have unique flavors like Cucumber or Lemongrass). There is a decent kids menu as well.

    A good burger is a good burger. I ordered the most basic burger known to man kind. The old tin can: patty, lettuce, grilled onion, sauce. Everything was delicious and flavorful. Idaho got some great fries. Great taste, consistency, and bounce to it. Their shakes look good but I didn't have it. Maybe next time. The only thing I could see why the reviews are low is because it does take them a while to make the burgers. Took about 25 minutes with a couple people ahead of me. I saw a group ask them if their burgers are ready. All in all, solid spot, good burgers and fries.

    Great shakes!

    Burgers and fries and shakes with a lovely view of the channel. My family all enjoyed the food-we even has a blueberry shake. Yum!! I wouldn't say it's the best burger I ever had here but it's good enough that I would come back :).

    Great food! Casual atmosphere. Loved the burger and the pomegranate cider! Will definitely come back again.

    Kids cheese burger

    We got a gift card to come here so we were excited to try something new. I agree with the other reviews saying the burger patties seem really small for the price tag and burger hype. I felt there was more stuff on the burger to make it huge than raving about the burger itself. Aside from being extremely messy - the burger tasted fine and I enjoyed all the toppings but they did overpower the meat because there just wasn't enough meat to pull it through. The fry sauce tasted like mustard but I liked the fries and the service and it didn't take long to receive our food. I'd go back again - it is fun they have so much variety to choose from but I can't see many of my family members liking it without it being more emphasis on the burger itself and being a little larger in size. It's darn pricey as others said and for me to go out in this little town I've gotta crave each little eatery and this one isn't there yet for me.

    Mushroom burger and fries. So good!

    When we first moved to this area a few years ago, Joe's was our go to after a day swimming and…read morecatching sun out on City Beach. It's roughly walking distance from the beach (maybe a brisk quarter mile or so from the sand), and is THE best kept secret in downtown Sandpoint. This place defines "hole in the wall" restaurant, and even if you're on foot, if you blink at the wrong moment, you'd likely miss it. Don't do that. This place is excellent. I've never been to Philadelphia, so I can't say with any accuracy or certainty how Joe's sandwiches hold up to the real deals, but I will say that the sandwiches and their burgers are indeed the Real Deal. Their sandwiches come in 8" and 12" lengths and burgers from 1-2 quarter pound patties. They have a fairly standard soda fountain equipped with Pepsi product, a few bottled beverages, and a mindblowing milk shake menu. A few years ago they even offered a buffalo sauce flavored milk shake. Full stop. Anyway, I can attest that their huckleberry shake and Hershey's chocolate malt are out of this world awesome. My wife and I went here for date night last night, our first time in in quite some time. Service was very friendly and attentive, and everything was made to order. Whereas I've usually gone for the Philly cheese steak or French dip, this time I did the bacon burger with pepper jack (they have a good variety of cheese available, I should add) and left with zero regrets. My wife did the standard cheeseburger with everything and we split a side of onion rings which were ambrosial (delicious, amazing, what have you). Parking can be a little iffy, but there are some spots on the street right out front. Worst case scenario, they're a very short walking distance from the big (free) public parking lot on Church street, which is where I parked. You might even need the walk if you're eating there. Inside seating is limited, but clean and comfortable. The AC wasn't the greatest, and I can't imagine the heat from the kitchen does the interior temps any favors. My wife and I rarely if ever get a date night anymore, so the whole thing was a great treat, and something I'd gladly do again anytime. Highly, highly recommended.

    Food was absolutely amazing, we had two really picky eaters and both raved about the food…read more Honestly the best cheesesteak sandwich I've had, I wasn't the only one who thought that in our group!

It has since become a semi regular place for us when we're looking for breakfast or lunch of the sort that ends up being just about the only meal we'll eat that day. I can't recommend it from experience, but Green Eggs & Ham is what really put Hoot Owl on the map. But for my money, it doesn't get much better than their Ranch Burger. Breakfast or lunch, that's my go to along with an endless cup of coffee and tall glass of ice water. Whoever decided to mix ranch dressing and barbecue sauce deserves and Nobel effing Peace Prize. My wife has tried a number of their omelette and scramble offerings and never been disappointed. And then there's the cinnamon rolls. Brace yourself because it's literally the size of your face. Dripping in frosting and served with roughly half a cube of whipped butter, the cinnamon roll is an event unto itself, and definitely a prime item for sharing with the table. The atmosphere is very cozy and...Rural. It feels like something out of a period film; very down to earth and eclectic with lots of owl knickknacks all over the place. If you've a bad back or bad posture, I'd recommend a table over a booth as the booths are a little short in the seat and very straight backed. Parking is usually not bad, even when they're busy (which is often), but it's in a dirt lot that shares its real estate with a drive through coffee shack. Lots of potholes at the entrance, so depending upon your vehicle, get ready to slalom a bit. The restaurant offers free WiFi to guests and is relatively kid friendly with plenty of high chairs, decks of cards at the table, etc. Service has always been friendly and expedient. They recently started tacking on a 3% surcharge for card transactions, but if you pay cash you get a discount...Of 3%. Heh. Anyway, if you're in the area and you want a big meal at a decent price, this place is fantastic. Forgot to mention prices, but a half pound specialty burger with fries ranges $13-$16, and similar pricing on other entree menu items. Get you some.

Not the most pleasant site right next to our booth. Service was friendly and quick. We had our food in no time. I got the Eggs Benedict and my husband got the Chicken Fried Steak. Food was mediocre and the portions were unnecessarily huge.
