Best Burger in Washington..... - Page 3

Jersey John · 03-22-2007, 10:19 PM

I like Fantastic burger up on the hill in Tacoma. I think they changed the name. I live right down the street from the Little Holland in Tacoma and they have great burgers but not really any seating.

I live the same distance from a Red Mill and a Dick's, so it depends on the day. They're both kick ass for different reasons.

The best mid ride burger I've had, though, is one from Scale Burgers in Elbe.

If you're ever in Hood River - don't miss the burgers upstairs at the Big Horse Grill. Definitely hitting that up at Sportbike NW this year.

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!

Dude I forgot about the Chuckwagon that place is just freakin cool anyways. It is decorated with old whiskey bottles of western scenes and trains go around on tracks hanging from the ceiling.

Oh SNAP! I always forget about them because their hours are so wierd. Definitely worth a visit.

Folks have already mentioned Frisko Freeze, so I'll add in a few other lesser known burger places:

All Star Burgers - just up Center Street from Tacoma Motorsports and an unbeatable bargain! $5 for the BBQ western burger combo!

Pick Quick - right next to Nissan of Fife. Quite possibly the best burgers around, in my opinion.

12th Street Diner - on 12th St in Tacoma oddly enough. I've only eaten there once, but it was pretty good. The dude from the News Tribune liked them a lot.

smcnees · 03-23-2007, 10:31 AM

Fat Smitty's on the west side of the Hood Canal Bridge in Discovery Bay. There's nothing better than one of these after a 112 ride

mlcjr · 03-23-2007, 10:35 AM

Gonna have to check out some of these places. I like the John Wayne burger at Normas here in Lacey.

R6Limited · 03-23-2007, 10:35 AM

If you kids ever make it to Bend, OR go the the Pilot Butte Drive-In...thats a damn good burger! And huge too.

Nope. Street rides are for those too smart to put all their time/effort/money into racing. I don't fall into that category. Besides, 1 ticket worth of lawyer fees is the same price as a set of race tires.

That's "Big City" food for residents of Methlehem.

Tiernan, how in the hell did you survive the betting pool that Mike had charting your demise?

Yep, married....already longer than you were.

Drove the Mustang down 101 for our honeymoon. Got home, spent three days recovering from shitty Ford ergonomics and then bought my bike. Have driven the car maybe once since then.

Bike is almost as big as the wife's Mini. Prettier too.

Kolat · 03-23-2007, 12:26 PM

You need to give me your number, I'm leaving for seattle in a few hours and I'm gonna be there from sat till wednesday.

PM sent. Also sent you Ben's email addy. If you're looking to cut loose a little bit, rumor has it is that Ben has almost nightly parties at his place, dubbed "The Frat House."

After eating Burgers for way to long, most now are Ok, I haven't had one yet locally that knocks me over. A&W use to make a really mean one, but they're not around here any more. But then there's always mine I make at Home. yum yum

wadel · 03-23-2007, 03:24 PM

Not Washington, but if you want an awesome burger, get one at the Elk River Cafe in Elk River, ID.

In WA: Eleanor's in Uniontown. I haven't ate there for a couple years but they used to have great burgers.

Teddly · 03-23-2007, 03:25 PM

for Red Robins.

I always get the Petite Bonzai Burger...

For those of you who don't know, you can get ANY RR burger as a "petite"

It is a buck cheaper, and a full size bonzai burger usually makes me feel bad for the rest of the night lol

besides, if you are still hungry you have bottomless fries (AND GET THE HONEY MUSTARD

)

This may sound crazy, but if you go to the cafeteria at Cascade Valley Hospital, they actually turn out a very good hamburger.
