This place isn’t just good — it’s unforgettable. I can confidently say that Cold Friend Burgers blows every burger place within at least a 200-mile radius completely out of the water. We drove over two hours just to try it, and it exceeded every expectation. The portions were massive, the fries were perfectly fresh, and the mac and cheese was absolutely otherworldly. Every bite tasted like it was made with genuine care and intention. You can tell the chef cooks with real love and passion, and that energy comes through in the food. This wasn’t just a good meal — it was an experience. If you’re even remotely close to this place, it is 1000% worth the trip.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

My girl and I came shorty after close and had the best damn burger I’ve ever had. And her pork belly Mach n cheese was also phenomenal. The cool was more than willing to slam down for us

Owner was super chill to talk to, food was fast and absolutely some of the best in the city. The flavors danced in your mouth. The west coast melt and pork belly were simply fantastic. Highly recommend
