back yard burgers

from the uk visiting orlando. i am from the uk and visiting orlando for three weeks. the food back home is average in most cases and when it comes to fast foodburgerchains only mcdonalds exists with maybe the oddburgerking on the highways/motorways. i have been to the us a few times now and have tried a few of the recommended places to eat. in and out, five guys, chick-fil-a, checkers, steak and shake etc etc and i appreciated them all, but they did not blow me away. i tried the bleuburgerfrom back yard last night along with the seasoned fries. honestly, i thought it was great! it tasted really fresh and the fries were a little chunkier which i love. cannot wait to go back again before i leave.

excellent "fast food" burger!. living in east orlando, i visited the back yard burgers location on university boulevard many times. that location has since closed. i was in apopka for work and on my way home, i remembered there was a back yard burgers location in altamonte springs. not having been to one in a long time, i decided to stop in.

this location is unique in that it does not have an inside dining room. it is a structure with two drive-thru lanes, a walk-up window, and picnic tables outside to eat.

i ordered a bacon cheddarburgeron a wheat bun ($4.69). for a "fast food" burger, it is the best around. large juicy patty, great fresh toppings, and at a great price. i also ordered three chicken tenders ($3.87). my total was $9.08. when i pulled up to the drive-thru window, the attendant informed me that it would be a three-minute wait on the chicken tenders. i did not mind. about two-minutes later, a manager came to the window, apologized, and handed me a coupon to use on my next visit. nice unsolicited gesture!

a greatburgerand great customer service allows me to recommend this restaurant. i recommend you give them a try!

back yard burgers is located in west town corners, at the nw corner of south state road 434 and west town parkway.

hmmm. it seems that everytime i go to the altamonte springs location they are always out of baked potatoes, no matter what time of day i go. so yesterday, being no different, i ordered the cole slaw instead of the french fries. got to work and found the cole slaw container 3/4 full..seriously?? not to mention that their window staff are less than friendly. most seem to have an attitude and get offended if i check myburgerfor correctness. now i know to check everything. sad because they do make a pretty good black and bleu burger.

i have often driven by back yard burgers and wondered what they were like. some of the people that i know of who have been there give it rave reviews, but others told me not to bother because it is not that great. i was in the area one evening and decided to give it a try.
the atmosphere/service… it is very similar to a checkers. you can walk up and order your food and then eat it on a picnic bench, which is what we did, but most people seem to just drive thru!
the food…a black angusburgercombo is the popular thing to order, but they do also offer a variety of chicken sandwiches, turkey burgers, hot dogs and root beer floats.
my friend and i each ordered the bacon cheddarburgercombo (angus patty, bacon, cheddar, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, ketchup, and mustard) with waffle fries and a drink. it came to about $8 each with tax. theburgeritself was fine. the toppings were fresh and it tasted pretty good for a fast food burger. the waffle fries were soggy and not worth mentioning. they do offer a punch card so once you have purchased 9 combo meals your 10th is free, however i just threw mine away because with so many better burgers out there (even better drive thru burgers) i know for a fact that i will not be going there enough times in the future to fill it up.
not a bad place, just not good enough for me to go back.

i agree with one of the previous reviewers that this was the best fast foodburgerthat i've had ( i don't consider five guys to be fast food). i ordered the bacon cheddarburgercombo with waffle fries. all was good, but next time i think i'll give their seasoned fries. i'll definitely come here again.

i love backyard burgers the blue angusburgeror something like that is really good. you have to get the seasoned fries!!!! amazing

real food. backyardburgeralways tastes like real food as opposed to fast food- even through the drive thru. win.

must go. theburgermeat actually has flavor unlike other fast food spots. the burgers or the chicken sammiches are fantastic. especially so for the black jacks add a baked potato and its down right delicious.

the hawaiian chicken sandwich is what i always get. i really like it but i wish they would give you more waffle fries. the large seems like a small. i had a regularburgeronce and it was good but i should have ordered the chicken again. overall this place is great!
