Burger Theory - Spring Lake

We have been coming to the holiday inn for the past few years and get breakfast every morning during our stay and we’ve had the absolute pleasure of being served by Amari and I can honestly say she provided some of the best service I’ve ever experienced. She is incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive without ever being overbearing. She anticipated what we needed before we even had to ask and made sure everything was perfect throughout our meal.

Her warmth and genuine care truly stood out—she made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table. She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy, and it made our dining experience exceptional.

It’s rare to come across someone who combines professionalism with such kindness and sincerity. Amari is truly an asset to this restaurant, and I will absolutely be coming back because of the amazing service she provided.

Highly recommend asking for her if you want your dining experience to be extra special!

We are on our 2nd stay at the holiday inn. We have been lucky enough to have Amari as our waitress every morning. She makes our crazy morning a lot easier with providing us with a yummy breakfast and a smile.

Chris A. is the best! Her customer service is outstanding!

Restaurant located inside the Holiday Inn (Spring Lake) was just mediocre. Limited menu for food but many choices for cocktails. Service was fine (likely because it was not busy). Party tried the “build your own burger” with grilled chicken and a take-out order of the Angry Pig burger. Fries and onion rings were very tasty, chicken was just ok (on dry side) and you can tell burger meat was premade/frozen). Serving sizes were decent for the price. Coke products are a plus. Atmosphere was the nicest part about visit because there are nice windows to see the marina. (Outdoor seating available when weather is warmer.) It’s an option if you need a place to go in the area but we wouldn’t choose to return for any reason.

Get burgers across the street and drinks anywhere else. This place is ran like a dive bar without the perks of a dive bar. Jacks was 10x better.

We stayed at the Holiday Inn for a weekend away. Nice room!
We ate twice at Burger Theory & it didn't disappoint! Really good food & drinks! The Manager Chris was Awesome! Friendly & Fun and got the job done! Definitely be back.

Amazing experience! 🌈 light was an absolute delight to chat with!

Loved sitting outside. Food was okay. Only one waitress/bartender working. Not her fault service was a bit slow.

My friends and I came for a birthday and the night staff was amazing! Shout out to Stacy for making us feel welcome! Great service.
We came and i got breakfast in the morning and the staff was very rude to us, and other guests because they were busier. We tried telling her our drinks we wanted to order, one person order and she walked away from us. She told people they would be bad service if they sat down right now and was passive aggressive. Very unpleasant morning.

We’ve tried to like this place. Great location on the water to sit outside and watch the boats in the summer. Food is small, cheap, and leaves you hungry. Just tried going again. After waiting at the hostess stand for 10 minutes with nobody in site, we walked outside on our own. Tried to get someone’s attention for another 10 minutes, then gave up and left.
