I was traveling for work and was looking for a local place to eat and get a cold snack. I found the Flippin Cow was about a mile from my hotel.
Small place with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff were pretty friendly and attentive. Typical variety of off the shelf cold snacks but they also offered some of thier own speciality drinks.
Typically type of menu items for this type of establishment but let me tell you... the cook know how to properly cook a flavorful smash burger. I was so impressed that I went back 2 more times during my stay in Elkhart.
If you want a fantastic smash burger without all the franchise noise and distractions... Flipping Cow is your place to go... just don't tell all of your friends... I still want to be able to get a seat when I stop by there next time.

The food was served quickly by a very friendly and attentive server and it was scrumptious. Reasonable prices and love eating by the lake. We happened to beat the crowd. We'll be back.

This is an ASTOUNDING little spot on the lake. Great views, great vibes, and great food. I came here for the burger and it did not disappoint. The beef was a high quality fresh grind with those little lacey edges. It’s not a full on smash burger but a “squarshed” burger as they call it. Very flavorful. The fries were also delicious. You can’t beat a good burger, a draft beer, and beautiful view of the water. Flippin’ Cow is worth all the hype. Don’t miss it if you’re in the area.

I had the burger and it absolutely blew me away. My party also ordered the Chicken noogies basket, which she said was fine, she didn’t expect them to come unsauced. But back to the burger, I ordered the Merica double, the potato bun was pillow soft, and the patties were delightfully thick and extra crispy (in the good way). The fries weren’t bad at all but didn’t compare to the burger. I saw another table with a brisket burger that looked amazing. I would definitely come again for the burger, but maybe next time get a single (I didn’t realize how big it would be). The service wasn’t bad.

Cute little place on a lake. Kitchen was out of commission on our visit, but they still offered a limited menu with a nice small selection with their food truck doing the work. Service was great! Food was average, but hot & fresh. Would like to revisit when the full menu is available.

This place was our favorite in our 6 week camping trip around Ohio. Miranda was amazing and the food, especially the burgers we had was delicious.
Be sure to eat here and enjoy the water and the deck porch.
Great location on the lake! I had a burger n my wife had chicken wrap. Both were really good! Fries n beer cheese were amazing! Suzanne, Isabella n hostess were all so nice! This was our first visit n we look forward to coming back!

This place is dumpy and filthy. They have poor service, and terrible food. Bad experience overall. I do not recommend.
