5 Best Burger Restaurants in Carbondale

“Dale's Burger Shack is one of the best burger spots in the area. The food is absolutely delicious, and worth the trip!

Their burgers are fantastic, with smash-style patties and fully customizable with your choice of cheese and other toppings. They also have a completely killer cheesesteak, a life-alteringly good grilled cheese, and some absolutely delicious fries. They offer bottled and canned sodas, including Fitz's. They also have several vegan options on the menu, including a vegan cheesesteak! Portions are generous and well-priced, and I've never left hungry.

Seating is limited, but everything is offered to go as well. Considering they are just across the street from the park, they would make a fun picnic option. They also accept call ahead orders by phone.

The owner is a really nice guy, and all my interactions with him, and all the staff, have always been very pleasant. The incredible food is what brings me back.“

“I used to work at Culvers and we never disappointed in serving with a smile and helping good paying customers with their orders and complaints. Yes, there were issues every once and a while but what restaurant doesn't. I've eaten there several different times while off the clock or just on one of my off days and my food was always hot and never came out wrong, it's not special treatment, it's good service and being caring and compassionate about one another. <3“

“Okay so when I walk in I can see there is a long drive thru line, inside like 8 people in line. They are busting butt in here. I hear the guy running register yell, welcome to Burger King,,with a smile, I was like whoa they are crazy bizy and he is still smiling, we can all learn a lot from this young mans attitude in life. Hayden thank you for a awesome experience. You made my day with your upbeat personality and your kindness.“

“Per my husband-"better gyro than El Greco!" Hot was hot, fresh, and well made. Will definitely be going back often.“

“The handsome man with the beard, Paul I believe his name was. Were super kind to me throughout the entire process of taking my order, checking me out and handling my food. even when my order was wrong he promptly had it remade. He made me feel special and not just another customer. Even my daughter took note of it. I hope to see him every time I order from this location! Very satisfied! 😁“
