40 Best Burger Restaurants in Birmingham

“We love this restaurant and had a phenomenal experience on 2 different occasions. Today they did a fantastic job for our son's birthday. The food was amazing and the staff is so friendly. The atmosphere is cozy and beautiful. We definitely will make this our place to escape from the average dining places.“

“Came on a Saturday with my boyfriend and the place was dead, which is shocking because this place is AMAZING!! Everything from the service to the food was A1. We started with the lemon pepper wet wings, which were really good but the sauce was a little too thick for my liking. For drinks, I ordered the Seascape and my boyfriend ordered the Magnolia’s Point, both of which were delecious. For our entrees, he ordered the shrimp and grits and I ordered the fried oyster platter which came with 2 sides, so I got a loaded baked potato and the side salad which I made some tweaks to. Neither one of us had any complaints about our food! If you’re looking for a lowkey spot for lunch/dinner with a great atmosphere, great service, and great food/drinks, this is definitely the place! Shoutout to our amazing waitress Irina for everything!!“

“We came to birmingham to children's south for a doctors visit and was looking for a place to eat . We pulled up our map to see food locations and found baha burgers . Hands down the best burger we have ever had . I had the baha burger and my wife had the baby burger both with onion rings . Please bring a baha to auburn AL , we definitely need a burger place like this and also best service also . Thank you for serving great burgers“

“We got seated sooner than expected. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Food came out fast and was terrific, very hot fresh and delicious. Great beer selection and it was tasty and cold.“

“The burgers used to be way bigger I don’t know what’s going on wit that but the food is really good just the price of $10 for a almost normal sized burger is crazy I wish they went back like the old days when a bear burger really used to be a BEAR burger“

“The burgers and fries are always fresh and deliciously crafted. I order online and pick up for my husband's (and my) dinner an average of once a week. My husband never gets tired of it and would rather have a burger from Craft Burger than from any other restaurant in town!“

“Great food & prices. Very friendly staff.“

“Great food and a great atmosphere along with speedy service-what more does anyone need??“

“They are a small business food truck that demonstrates nothing but exemplary customer service. My husband went by while they were in Helena for their to die for peach crumble. They were out of the dessert but they offered to make half a pan for us and said they will have it ready the next day at their next location at Shelby Baptist. I went by to pick it up and not only did they have it ready but they brought it out to me at my car. They are such nice people and I’m very happy at the customer service they display. Let’s support Battle Axe and I urge you to make it a point to go by and try all of their scrumptious food. Thank you Battle Axe.“

“I have been three times and love this restaurant. They have good, unique food at a great price point, all packaged in some really fun and playful branding.

But don't take my word for it. Go try it yourself!

Kid-friendliness: Some great kid options and one of the TVs is usually playing something for kids“

“Great service and food is always good.“

“Flew in from Houston and so glad I stopped here. Had the fried green tomato BLT with a cold PBR draft and it was amazing! If you’re in Birmingham you gotta give this place a try, 100 out of 100 ⭐️’s!!“

“Atmosphere was good, service was quick. Decent burger but nothing extraordinary.“

“Very nice people great food“

“The food here was great, the design is really nice, and the team was friendly and working really efficiently during a busy lunch hour. Even though the inside area is small, they've done a great job of adding a lot of bar seats, and there's a ton of seating outside. The burger and fries were excellent, and they're at a good price point. Really great addition to the neighborhood.“

“Fresh, healthy, and served in a wonderfully clean atmosphere, it’s my go-to spot in town. I love knowing that every visit guarantees fresh, homemade food that’s both delicious and healthy. The service is always friendly and quick, with a keen attention to detail that sets Marky’s apart. Highly recommend the smash burgers, chicken rollup & spinach quesadilla and can’t leave without chicken salad & pimento cheese from the togo cooler which I snack on all week!“

“Had the pleasure of stopping by the Grille Shack today!!! When I say my 6 year old almost devoured 2 pork chops before we got home!!! I'm munching on what she left me and this delicious chef salad!! I'll definitely be back!!“

“We wanted a unique and local place. A hole in the wall if you will. The store front said this is it. When you walk in it doesn't look like a sit down restaurant, and there aren't many seats. Ms Dawson greets you from behind a wall and comes around to take your order. Plan to be patient as she cooks it fresh and is a solo operator. The burger was well worth the wait. Definitely give it a shot for lunch.. just don't be in a hurry.“

“Big Dawgs Bessemer is celebrated for its bold, flavorful burgers like the Bully, crafted with fresh ingredients and grilled to perfection. The welcoming atmosphere and standout customer service make it a top choice for those seeking quality comfort food in a casual setting.“

“I come when I have free time away from the kidos. Great atmosphere Ethan’s hall pass drink is very good. He and Brooklyn make me feel like we’re old friends tho I just started coming there. Great staff, hot fresh taste to the food. Always a pleasure. Thanks guys!“

“The Homewood location is fantastic. Food was great, quick service, extremely clean and tidy! I had only ever been to Irondale, but we were in the area and decided to stop in for lunch. The customer service was top notch!“

“The Philly cheesesteaks were amazing! Very nice people.“

“Absolutely delicious!! So glad we saw the signs on the street advertising brunch! We will be back.“

“Absolutely a TREAT!!! We were in town for the GT Bowl game and a local had recommended this adorable place. FRIENDLY service, delicious food, with a FUN Saturday morning vibe - kid friendly for both the BIG kids and little kids! Coffee was hot and delicious and the donuts were SO good, we had to get some 'to go' for our ride bk to ATL..“

“This was our first time at J Wings….but it will NOT be our last! The next time we come through Birmingham, we will definitely stop by!We had lemon pepper wings, Philly cheesesteak, fried green tomatoes, cheese fries, and the pork chop plate. J Wings did not disappoint! Everything was fresh & seasoned perfectly. The sweet tea was good as well!Great food & great service! The owner was pretty cool too. ? Keep up the great work!“

“I picked up my take out order. I told the staff I needed the strawberry shake. I was told a couple minutes later it was in the bag. I checked and I could see the top of the cup so I left. Got home and it was vanilla. My husband ordered the hot ones burger and there was a quarter size of sauce in the middle of the top bun. His burger was basically dry. My bacon burger was cooked too long, part of it was not edible because it was hard as a rock. This was my first time coming here and I don't plan on returning.“

“I enjoyed my burger there both times I visited. A hot, double patty with fresh, chilled fixings. Good tea as well. It's right around the corner from the North Pavillion of UAB.

I'd recommend ya stop in if you're around there. Spent $14 for the meal, and it was worth it.“

“Came in for a quick lunch with my husband before a movie! We really enjoyed our double bacon burgers. 🍔 if you are thinking about getting some fry’s just do it!“

“Mariah went above and beyond to care of my wife and I. We were looking for a late night spot and found EXACTLY what we were looking for. The food was good and the beer was cold. She and Martrell made us feel right at home. (btw, they have impressive private parts!!)“

“I've been driving past this place for months and thought I needed to try it. Today was the day, Chili Cheese dogs for me and Slaw dogs for a co-worker. Fries and Tots too, both of out meals were good, friendly people behind the counter too. Looks like they have a good variety of other standards for this type of small restaurant. I/we'll be back soon. Thanks Guys.“

“Goat Popper was way too good (props to the kitchen), and we had the most charming bartender ever slingin’ the best drinks and maintaining a legit vibe all the while. I will definitely be coming back asap.“

“Good quality service good service“

“The food was amazing. The restaurant was sticky. Like everything was sticky. Made me wish we had ordered to go. It was our first time trying Milo’s as we don’t live near one. We get their tea all the time and it was even better at the restaurant. Their sauces were delicious and their hamburgers and chicken sandwiches were perfectly simple.“

“great service!! Thanx to Amy fulvi for a great burger!!“

“new go-to fast food when in the area“

“My husband and I ate 2 hamburgers and shared a fry. Food was delicious. I love the Milo's sauce. The hamburger buns are always toasted so nice. The fries have the cheese flavor and are so good dipped in Milo's sauce. The workers were so kind and friendly. It had a great atmosphere too. The other customers were happy and just generally nice people.“

“Been coming here since I was a little girl! Love love love Sol’s. Management has changed since I was a kid and the main lady in charge isn’t really kind and can be kinda snippy and have a slight attitude but one of the cooks has been there for a while and her personality makes up for it. I’ll always come back just don’t care to deal with the main lady at the register.“
