28 Best Burger Restaurants near Ben Lomond

“Very good food, service is quick and friendly.“

“They make a good burger. It’s simple. Like it was done right, at the best backyard spot. That person you want grilling your burger, they got them. And then they got the people who know how to put it together so it doesn’t get messy. This sounds like a ridiculous review but I feel like if you know you know. None of us took pictures - we ate it too fast. I feel like that’s the best kind of review.“

“My husband and I had a great breakfast I got a breakfast burrito and a frittata. Both were very good and big great food for a great price and the customer service was amazing.“

“Overall decent burger in Abbott Square Market. A lot of creative options, and plenty of seating. I'm not sure I'd call this the best burger I've had, or even the best in the area, but it hit the spot for what we were looking for at the time.

Pricey, but not a bad burger by any means. Overall solid!“

“My favorite local hangout! food is always great, their beer selection is well-chosen and often local, staff is friendly and helpful. plus the live music is a fun addition in the warmer weather.“

“Taste great. Friendly Staff. Enjoyed having Birthday dinner with our daughter who turned 20 yrs old. Yummy“

“The vegan options were awesome! They were understaffed and couldn’t remember our two drinks we ordered. Which took a while had to go remind them, Just two coffees. The food was very good though. Probably need to hire more people though to handle the amount of traffic and remember the orders. Updated from previous review on 2026-02-27“

“As a musician playing the part of Jack Bruce, the bass player of Cream, we had a great experience on stage. The lighting was perfect. The atmosphere was over the top and the audience was a very participating dancing audience. A great place to make new friends. Rob Wullenjohn as Eric Clapton , Phil Sollar as Ginger Baker, and myself, Phil Zamora as Jack Bruce“

“Georgie's Cook House is located within Roaring Camp. The menu had great selection of burgers, fries, hotdogs and icecream. They also have a vegan burger which is also suitable for vegetarians. We bought the chicken tenders, fries and burger. We were able to order them individually or as a combo which comes with fries and canned soda. The orders are taken at the front side of the restaurant facing the tracks and we picked up at the window in the side. Table and seating is available but they aren't sufficient enough for even a small crowd. Management should look into this and make some more seating available. There is a digital display that shows your order number when ready. Payment can be made via cash or card. Mobile payments are accepted however, the area doesn't have a good cell reception. The ordering and pickup system is well organized. However, the person who takes the order is little slow which makes the line move slowly. People from the beach train have a layover time constraint of 1 hour. So, a faster ordering system would make it more effective.“

“My friend got the California burger with a side salad, and I got the bacon and blue, but instead of blue cheese, I got pepper jack with a side of fries. And my oh my.... it was sooooooo good! The balsamic drizzle was delicious with the burger.“

“My husband and I enjoyed Coconut prawns in a mango sauce, peppercorn ribeye steak with smashed potatoes and zucchini. We topped it off with a creme Brûlée! Everything was absolutely delicious! A favorite restaurant for our date nights!“

“I always love my experience here at The Diner of Los Gatos when I come into the area to visit family. We come here every time, a tradition. The food is delicious and the staff are very friendly and it’s a fun place to bring my grandson.“

“Top of the line Food thats forsure“

“Food was fresh, staff were polite and they actually asked what sauce we wanted for chicken nuggets whereas McDonalds usually makes you tell them and if you forget they won't follow up when they hand over your order. Store was clean and well stocked. I was very happy with my visit!“

“Best Philly Cheesesteak west of the Mississippi! They rock!!! Try an Apple Fritter too. They are killer!!!“

“It was a good idea having KFC and A&W combined. I enjoyed having the choice between the two places or a little of both. I went with three chicken strips and a double cheeseburger combo. Both were hot and seemed really fresh. The chicken was super tender and the burger had a great flavor. The fries were also some of the best I've had in a while. They had a little seasoning on them which tasted really good. The restaurant doesn't have a lot of places to sit but even to go would be a great option. Definitely worth a try.“

“Absolutely the best crab sandwich I’ve ever had!

Seaside Fish and Chowder at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is a hidden gem that every seafood lover needs to visit. I stopped by on a whim and ended up having one of the most memorable meals of my trip.

Their crab sandwich is out of this world—sweet, fresh crab meat served on perfectly grilled sourdough from Sumano’s Bakery, crisped in butter until golden. The flavors were perfectly balanced, rich, and comforting without being heavy. You can taste the freshness.

The staff was friendly, the service was quick even with a crowd, and the location can’t be beat—right near the beach, with that classic Boardwalk vibe.

Highly recommend grabbing a crab sandwich (and maybe a bowl of chowder too!) and enjoying it while watching the waves. This place is a must-stop when you're in Santa Cruz!“

“Amazing food, flavor is off the charts. These guys are doing my wedding. They are so pleasant, warm, and helpful. I can’t wait to have them at my wedding.“

“My family and i arrive to this location and they bring to us Hot meal they have Friendly servers they always smile they are kind with our kids. My omelette was utterly delicious i going to cone back this location in a good spot. in santa cruz. thanks for everything“

“Santa Cruz local instution. This is a legacy NorCal small business chain. If you're not vegan you need to be supporting these people. The employees in Santa Cruz are respectful, efficient and maybe not earning a living wage required for the rents here. They work very late on the weekends until 3am. Shop local is up to YOU.“

“Such a neat place! We really enjoyed this spot. Service and drinks! Their house drink menu is very unique and fun! Definitely recommend if you're visiting Santa Cruz! The entrance is around the back of motiv off pearl alley but if it's after 9:30p you'll need to go to motiv first to get stamped anyways.“

“BurerBots is located inside First Born, and hence the atmosphere is very decent. A live DJ plays music, a memorable list of cocktails is available, and the table service is full.

The burger was very decent, contrary to my original expectation :) The patty was juicy, the buns were soft, and the packaging was also very cute. I would definitely visit this place again with my kids.“

“Am I proud that I occasionally get this 950 calorie Cali XL double cheeseburger? No I am not, but it is delish! The two ladies and one young man who work there are the nicest fast food staff in Scotts Valley, so I have to give them some respect back. They make a mean breakfast burrito as well. Most of the time they are not that busy, so do not expect the fastest service, but they are perfectly on time if you order ahead online. Always friendly and smiling. Gracias!“
