Morehead Burger Company was presented to me as the go to spot in the area for a MUST HAVE burger experience. Giving It a go it quickly becomes apparent that it barely rises above the standards of fast food. The experience is marred by several factors that detract from what could be a pleasant meal out.
One of the first things that strikes you upon entering is the environment. Unfortunately, it leaves much to be desired. The cleanliness of the establishment is questionable; tables and chairs were sticky / uncleaned, and the floors appear to have not been swept in quite some time at the time I went.
Adding to the less-than-ideal experience is the staff’s attitude towards customers. During my visit, I found them to be unhelpful & somewhat indifferent; hell, the cashier was on her phone having a discussion with what appeared to be her partner. Even after I told her this was my first time being here, her response was a simply “ok” & went back to her phone call. When I had questions about menu items or needed assistance with my order, responses were short, unwelcoming & lacking in enthusiasm.
While it does have a good variety of burger options, the quality does not match up with expectations or the 4.7 rating that is reflected on google. The burgers themselves are average at best—cooked inconsistently and lacking flavor depth that would elevate them beyond typical fast-food. This burger pictured was the sweet baby burger with a side of onion rings which are one of the worst in the local area. I order for two other people as well – Classic burger and they had similar sentiments and stated their fries were similarly uninspired; they were soggy rather than crispy, further contributing to an overall disappointing meal.
In summary, Morehead Burger Company struggles to provide the go to spot that was presented to me due to its dirty environment, overcrowded conditions, unhelpful staff, and mediocre food quality. While it may serve as a quick stop for those in need of a fast meal on-the-go, it fails to deliver on the must have experience and the rating that’s reflected that define a good burger joint.

burgers are good. probably better if we ate in. fries are better quality. service was slooow on the day we visited.
I went here with my grandmother and we had the best tuna burgers that I've ever had. And their house sauce is amazing.

Parking: They have a very small parking lot but everybody likes their food so it's always jam-packed.
Kid-friendliness: They have a very good, kid friendly menu where you can take off or put on anything you want on your burger.
Wheelchair accessibility: They had a wheelchair accessible entrance.

fantastic burgers and fries! We had to wait, but this isn't a fast food restaurant so it was expected. Food came out hot and fresh. Drink machine was out of order with no posted repair date when we visited, and they were also out of tuna and fried pickles. Also didn't see a menu anywhere, but found some on the order counter, so not a big deal. Overall fun place to visit with great fresh burgers! Recommend the fish burger if you like fish and a bit of spice!
Kid-friendliness: booths are long and can fit 6 to a table if needed. I could not see any booster seats or high chairs.

If you're visiting town for the weekend be sure to hit Morehead Burger Company up. Food was delicious and the cost was not terrible but more than fast food joint.
