“Top 2 and not 2! I gotta say Durhams best burger spot with a lot of options which they helped us narrow down to two the mushroom melt and the bacon blue, but best believe we are gonna try the other flavors the next time we go. Both burgers were delicious meat cooked to perfection and well dressed. That bacon blue hit different with there blue cheese sauce which was my winner today. Also the chili cheese fries were phenomenal and to top off they had a great selection of beer; hazy ipa being my go to. Definitely worth checking out!“

“i had a great time during lunch on my birthday yesterday & was pleased to not find an overabundance of ipa on tap!instead i discovered your amazing reserve beers (solera was a fave) i was also shown your solera barrel system behind the bar which may be the only beer aging system like it in the world. i wonder why this brewery is not on the cover of magazines & a must stop for international foodies & beer enthusiasts?i want to visit your brewery location sometime but for now i praise your decision for not making so many ipa's. i was impressed that your brewery has 2 cicerones (including 2nd level) & 1 more in the oven, hanot only is this the best beer i've had in the area since weeping radish, the food is amazing. the chef was outstandingly personable & explained that the reason the burrito beef melted in my mouth was that it was cooked in beer 16 hours, wow! the soft drinks were all fantastic natural flavours - it has been many years since i've had Birch Beer & possibly never on tap, but i also want to enjoy the ginger ale, orange vanilla & cream soda. the ice cream was made onsite & sourced from a local creamery. the lettuce comes from a small 2 acre farm.the only downside was the overwhelming music that intruded on conversation instead of being in the background where it belongsi plan to return soon, who can say no to free pinball on tuesdays?“

“It's a cool bar and grill in 9th Street in Durham. It's not a huge place. The service was great. I assume you just try to find a seat as it's a bit smaller of an establishment. Some pretty good bar type foods are offered. All the food we tried was pretty good. Big selection of bottles and can beer. Only a couple of draft selections and a full bar..“

I had the Classic burger with fries. I saw the burgers were doubles and thought no way I would be able to finish but I ate every single bite! The employees were friendly, efficient, and could be seen wiping down tables and straightening up throughout our dine-in experience despite how busy they were - so impressed! Wish there was one closer to home as this would be my new go-to burger place. Keep it up, Wayback of Durham!!!“

Those chicken tenders were perfect. The breading was wonderfully light and shortly after it melted in your mouth the incredibly juicy chicken followed suit! The service was wonderful! I would highly recommend to anyone looking for some real good chicken tenders!“

“I’m not sure if my review is necessary because King’s is a Durham staple—everyone knows the food is good, hence the long lines on a daily.BUT I just had the best burger ever! My burger was juicyyy, flavorful and that sauce—oh my! The fries, which are regular crinkle fries seasoned to perfection, was the perfect match for my burger. The flavors complimented each other well.The service is not Chic-Fil-A kind, but depending on who you get, the experience is pretty standard/regular. I find the younger employees offer more attitude than needed. But man, that burger was bomb. And I usually get the shrimp po boy—which is also the best shrimp po’ boy I’ve had, but I’m pleased I chose the burger this time.“

“Hailing all the way from Washington, DC, I give The Durham Filling Station 5 Stars! It's been 2 years since I've been here because my mother was formerly hospitalized at Duke. I stumbled upon this place, so I stopped in for a bite to eat. I'm glad I did. It is a diamond in the cut! I wrote a review on my Facebook page, however, I neglected to write a review here on Google until today. I even did a little hashtag with my FB review which was, "Durham Filling Station. #GetYouSome" These guys get your order, get the food cooked fast & fresh, & it is made your way. So, BK move over.That Brisket Mac was everything. That Junkyard Burger was Top-Freaking-Notch. The fries were crispy & hot out of the grease. The bonus! I got to leave my business card on the board. That was awesome! Be sure to contact High Alert Emergency Preparedness when you're ready for my services!Parking: A small parking lot for a small business.“

Betsy was a beloved figure in Durham’s community, and the outpouring of love and support we received was deeply moving. I want to extend a special thank you to Gene Divine, the owner, for not only allowing us to use this venue for such a significant event but also for being an important part of Betsy’s life. The compassion, professionalism, and warmth provided by the staff made a challenging day much easier. We are immensely grateful for everything.

He checked in multiple times to make sure we had what we needed and was very kind and generous to our children. We were blown away by his kindness and service!

“Update: Went with my son and friend (Feb 2024) and decided to update this. The burgers were good and cooked as requested again. Fries were much better in house than take out, no surprise. Going to give them 5 stars instead of 4. I will qualify my review by saying nobody ordered a "rare" burger, but Medium and Medium Rare have been pink and slightly more pink every time. To me that's impressive but I can't comment on what rare is here. Bottom line, most consistently excellent burger place I've been to in the area. My prior review is below.Old review: Burger Bach makes a perfectly adequate burger, and to me, that's saying a lot! I can't do it 80% of the time. It's not some gourmet wanna be burger, but it is: a nice size, cooked the way you ask for like (unlike most places), it's not tough, not falling apart, not a grease fest like 5 guys, and it's nicely seasoned. I'd say better than Smash Burger, 5 Guys, or even ZinBurger (which is now gone from Southpoint because of the Pandemic).Absolutely no complaints on our burgers. Shocking lol.The reason I only give them 4 stars is because the fries are pretty soft and soggy (a lot of people like that type of thicker cut french fry so take this with a grain of salt), and because I think the lettuce on the burgers and side salad were a little stingy. But you can always request extra lettuce, or you can put the little side salad on your burger like I did, and the dressing adds a nice touch.Easily one of my top burger places in Durham.“

“Bacon grilled cheese , hushpuppies & slaw, apple turnover or cheesecakeThis is a double drive through business. Your food is freshly prepared in 2 minutes. Folks are more comfortable with driver next to the cashier, hence the right side is always faster. Undo your belt or just reach 'acrosst' , your passenger seat and save 5 -7 minutes. All of their places are fast and consistent at all locations.They appear to own most of their farm to fork process. Hillsborough has plenty of room for a cookout near our 4 interstate highways...Then we won't have to drive from Durham w/ cold BBQ, tater tots.“
