In & Out is actually pretty crappy. I ate there so many times when living in CA (and would go back, don't get me wrong). They're kind of like Dick's up here -- more of a cult following than anything else.

My biggest conquest there? A 6x6 Animal Style. Damn I was full after that one...

I enjoy a Red Robin burger too, but since they're a chain, they don't belong in a "Best Burger" thread!

Bob's has good burgers, but they're a small chain, and disqualified.

How about a small chain like Fat Burger?

I first tried that at Fat Burger and loved it. I'm sure they normally do a good job of it at Red Robin but they're 1 & 1 for good/bad with me. And I haven't ordered one since...

ey if your in ellensburg go to the tav an get their blue cheese burger..so good..

Red Robin in Kennewick is always good, never eaten one anywhere else. Usually If I go to a restaurant I don't get a burger so my experience is limited........JOhn

Boomers used to be an A&W years and years ago.. Bob's B&B is alright depends on which one you go to.. The one in Sumas is pretty good. I know one of the cooks at the one in Ferndale. The one in Skagit Valley I've only been to once. Wasn't impressed with that one.

The Turk · 03-22-2007, 02:30 PM

i never been there but i always here great things about red mill burgers.

mnewell · 03-22-2007, 02:37 PM

For a ride destination, you really can't beat Fat Smittys over in Discovery Bay (on the way to Sequim). The logger burger is amazing.

Check out this link for more great burgers: http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/food/2...gertour13.html

SonicBlue03 · 03-22-2007, 02:41 PM

Red Mill is decent. I like going to the one on Phinney just for the fact that anyone that walks in with a cell phone in evidence gets yelled at.

Now if we were talking nachos, I'd say Claim Jumpers rules the roost. Their burgers are...eh.

Cougar · 03-22-2007, 02:51 PM

When I lived in Yakima I ate at Miner's almost every day. But another great place in Yakima is the Stop & Go on Fruitvale. Great food, quiet, and they also have a little park with picnic tables. Highly recommended.

In Kennewick: O'Henry's right down town.

What was that little place we went to... Came down from Windy Ridge and then went towards Cougar I think. Hmmmm...

This place:

Could have been one of those "After a good ride the food tastes great!" places but I recall it being exceptionally grubin'.

Bowhunter · 03-22-2007, 02:56 PM

I would kill for a bag of Dicks!
Raised on them, now whenever I get to Seattle, Which is Maybe once every 2 months, I get 2 deluxe and 2 fry's and call the wife to see if she want's me to bring any home.

I know, I know, some say ick,

but I eat all over this damn planet and I LOVE them.

Of course in&out when I am down south is good to.

I don't remember but the sign says Cougar Bar and Grill. Maybe that's it?

Holy crap that is an old picture. Was that when you borrowed your buddy's GS500? DMP and Imagine32billion in the same picture. Nuts!

Lzzybeth · 03-22-2007, 02:59 PM

Ok, after all this talk of burgers in the Ride Reviews & Destinations section...I think there should be a Ride with a Burger Review sometime this year. Someone start a new thread!!

102warrior · 03-22-2007, 03:01 PM

well i guess its been a couple years since i ate there. Hiedleburg in Leavenworth was pretty good last time i was there

zx6r · 03-22-2007, 03:03 PM

1. Fat Schmitty's (On the Way to Port Angeles)
2. Red Mill (seattle)
3. The Metropolitan Grill (seattle)
4. Bob's Burgers (up north. everytime I have gone there the waitresses were amazingly beautiful, good food too!)

Yeah, that's what it was, "Cougar Bar and Grill"! Thanks Noodle, you're the bestest!

Yeah, that was quite a while ago. Darin & Matt in the same pic -- seriously good times. That little GS was a skosh under powered and little soft in the chassis, but I had a really fun time.

You weren't on that ride?

Wedgewood ale house has good beer and the food is great. The buffalo burger is damn tasty. Red mill is T. sh$t though also.

CBRider206 · 03-22-2007, 04:58 PM

Zest on rainier avenue in south seattle

Guideon72 · 03-22-2007, 05:15 PM

Jak's Grill in Issaquah, on Front St followed closely by Matt's in Redmond Town Center. I haven't tried a Redmill burger yet, but I hear they're tasty

Geoff4RFC · 03-22-2007, 08:26 PM

Yeah, I've heard Red Mill is really good, Little Holland in Tacoma, right down the street from Tacoma Honda has the "Mighty Mike", 3 pattys, Canadian bacon, Swiss cheese loaded with the works including their Mikey sauce, some of the best I've had this side of Texas!!!

I rolled a 460 on skee ball there the other night! That place is awesome.

whatever man. Red Robin or the Ram or any other chain restaurant is going to charge you 9-10 bucks for a burger. The met is only $12. It might seem a little steep for a burger, but it really isn't much more than a lot of the other places listed.

Sorry, but the Wedgewood Ale House was a MAJOR disappointment. Red Mill is OK, and "A Burger Place" on University in the U District is OK if you can get financing.

johnnyooze · 03-22-2007, 09:49 PM

TIE!
Bobs Burger And Brew & Boomers Drive In. Bobs has goood ass burgers that are huge and the waitresses are always hot! Boomers is great cheap burgers and they have bomb milkshakes too. In Jan and Feb all burgers are $2.50. So every year about this time i get to work off the mysterious 5 lbs ive gained!

jdpesz · 03-22-2007, 09:53 PM

The new Bob's Burgers & Brew in Marysville, next to Wal Mart, is excellent.
But while you're in the neighborhood, you must go to Country Burger, near Lake Goodwin, between Smokey Point and Kyak Point.
Ray's in Everett is also good.
When I'm in Seattle I like Kidd Valley.
When I'm in Mount Vernon it's CHUCK WAGON, BABY!!! Gimmie a Big Sue and stand back!

Ninja05Girl636 · 03-22-2007, 09:57 PM

You CANNOT beat MINER'S in YAKIMA or BURGER EXPRESS in FEDDY WAY!! LOL If you're in YAKIMA i recomend going to MINERS for you burger and MAJORS for your BEER-BATTERED FRIES!!! WOOOO!!! Mind you this is coming from a Yakimanian (i lived there most of my life)

I like Red Mill, but I don't think I'd go out of the way for it. I want to try Fat Smitty's, and the Chuck Wagon in Mount Vernon.

(When you go into Red Mill the next time, just ask whoever's at the counter, "Do you have bacon today?". They'll sometimes haul out the huge pile to show you!)
