13 Best Burger Restaurants in Effingham

“We made a 2.5 hour trip to Pinky’s for the first time. The food was GREAT, priced fair, the waitress was fantastic and the domes were a wonderful experience. I highly recommend Pinky’s.“

“I don’t like to leave poor reviews but hoping this will help the restaurant do better. We ordered at 1:09 pm, at 1:30 I finally went up front to check on our food. I did this because I saw others eating that were in line behind me. My tray with my children’s meals was sitting there, holding on cheese curds. I was able to grab my food. My bun was as hard as a rock, food was Luke warm. They should have brought my food then brought out the curds later. Also, I received 12 cheese curds, this was very upsetting considering it’s a $2 up charge for curds. Never had issues in the past, hoping just a fluke because we love Culver’s!“

“Cruiser's is a drive through burger, chicken & fish place. Fries, cheese curds onion rings etc. The food is made fresh while you wait and it only takes a few minutes to get your order. My fries were so fresh I had to let them cool before I could even eat them. Food is SOOOO DELICIOUS!!! If you're ever in the area, this is a Definite MUST stop to eat!!! Oh and the portions are also very generous! I wasn't able to eat my whole meal. Even with my 3 pups helping me.“

“We no longer have Fridays locally so anytime we travel to St. Louis we always stop at Effingham Fridays. We have always had great service and great food ! The manager went over and beyond for us this last trip and deserves a raving review. We will be back on our next trip :)“

“I know Hardee's in New Ulm MN has had some issues, but I went there today and was more than impressed! there were at least four people working there and they were so friendly and the food came really fast. it was fresh and hot and delicious! I can't wait to go there again, it looks like they have really pulled it together!“

“I absolutely love their original chicken sandwiches and their chicken fries!! The staff and managers are super friendly and fun to visit when eating!!“

“I went through the drive-thru on August 10th around 1 PM and wanted to give a shoutout to the wonderful lady working the window! She’s the same person I normally see, and she is ALWAYS amazing. She’s incredibly friendly to both my husband and me, fast, accurate, and has absolutely top-notch customer service. You can tell she genuinely cares about the people she serves. She’s a huge asset to this location and definitely deserves some recognition! ❤
Thank You! 🫶🏻“

“Good food as always great service“

“good people and the staff is nice and good food and enjoy 😉“

“The quality of our local steak and shakes have significantly improved along with the staff. Much cleaner, tastes better, and even seems more filling than it used to. On top of that the new company policies like banning microwaves, beef tallow for their fried goods, and grass fed beef for the burgers. It went downhill a while ago but I can definitely say it has done a complete 360 and has honestly been one of our families favorite quick fast food locations now. Definitely better than McDonald's.“

“Came in around 9pm on Monday night. I sat at the bar and my server was Tasha. I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door. She had a GREAT personality. I ordered a chicken quesadilla and an omelette. Both came out really fast and looked AMAZING. Tasha checked on me as well as kept my glass full. It was nice having a server that would have a conversation with you. Being a truck driver on the road we don’t get very many in person conversations. Will absolutely be stopping in this location more often.“

“Went through the drive through tonight at 2 am, (black friday morning) the only people working was a man and a woman. the man who served us was amazing and quick, for it being so early and just after thanksgiving he had amazing charisma and an amazing attitude!!! thank you mcdonald’s !“

“They were super busy with a long drive-thru line, but the guy at the window was so friendly and cheerful. It honestly made me think he really enjoys his job. And you just can’t beat a Wendy’s spicy chicken sandwich—so good every time!“
