Love Humble Burger’s new location in Downtown Moscow! Clean interior with plenty of seating - even a few place outside! I love that people can watch the food being made, and the staff is so friendly! Limited menu, but it’s so hearty and they cater to those who are GF! I wish they had more conventional drinks (Coke, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, etc), but the food itself surpasses my complaints about drinks! Hefty and filling and they even have a punch card for items you know you’re going to order again and again! The meat, I believe, is locally sourced too. Excellent establishment!

Humble Burger is one of those spots that’s unique and fun to visit. Most burgers are fairly similar, but HB manages to make theirs stand out just a bit more. The burgers are tasty and have been consistently good for years. The fries could use a little improvement—perhaps a touch crispier—but that’s a minor quibble. The atmosphere is lively, which I usually enjoy, but the music volume is completely out of hand. On my last visit, it was so loud that you couldn’t hear someone across the table. I even mentioned it to the manager or owner. At first, I politely asked if they could turn it down, pointing out that nobody was listening to it. He responded by asking, “What did you say?” So I leaned closer and repeated myself: “Your music is way too loud—nobody’s listening, can’t you see everyone is yelling at each other? You don’t need the music at all.” He still asked, “What did you say?”—yes, again. That’s how absurdly loud it was. This perfectly illustrates my point: music in restaurants should be just barely audible, enough to enhance the atmosphere but not fight with conversation. At Humble Burger, it often overpowers the experience, which is a shame because the food and vibe are otherwise great. Overall, Humble Burger is a fun, tasty spot—but I hope they finally realize that nobody enjoys shouting to be heard over the music.

Lived in Idaho for a few years off-grid and this was our favorite place to eat. Super friendly staff and the burgers were phenomenal. I think about it all the time and miss it! Old school cooked, amazing.
