in the summer, the Chorizo burger is my favorite here! Honestly, i don't care which burger i have because I love all of them. You can tell they use great meat for their burgers and honestly, I haven't tasted a better burger since. This is a great option for families because there is a fenced in area with space for the kids to run around and play in the warmer months. There is a great beer selection that is constantly changing so you can taste a variety of beers throughout the year. read more

We've been patrons here since they've opened. Great beer selection, decent burgers (dry, not juicy burgers, but good toppings), really good fries and they've slowly expanded the menu. Last night I ordered the spicy 302 burger and my wife had a regular 302 burger. Neither of us could tell the difference. My issue is 302 has turned into a daycare for kids. Parents let their kids run amok now. It's great for us parents to have a place to relax and let the kids blow off some energy. But letting your kids run around a restaurant with zero control is too much. Within the first 5 min of us being there, one kid slammed his mom's wine glass down and shattered it, another kid was hanging in the door handle and would not move when I tried to utilize the door. 302 tried to post "patio rules" but some parents have zero respect for those. Such as on rule, 302 asks for no ball playing on the patio, for understandable reasons. Yet, one kid had a soccer ball, another a beach ball and another a softball. All were flying around the patio, smashing into people and things. Parents; teach your kids some common sense manners and respect for others. read more

Tried this place for lunch. Got take out chicken sandwich. Didn't love it. The chicken was not great and the overall sandwich wasn't super. Pricing was very reasonable at $8. Parking was ample and the ambience and overall restaurant was clean and modern. would probably try something else in the future but not overly impressed with the recent order. read more

It's so good trust me go there every day. This place is the best restaurant ever. Also very friendly

I stumbled upon this place on accident. While I was looking to find a place to grab a quick bite as I was running errands, 302 Wheaton popped up. From the parking lot, the restaurant looks like it's set in a movie scene from Hallmark. It is in the beginning portion of downtown Wheaton and aesthetically pleasing. Upon walking in, you walk straight into the ordering counter and to the left is seating and merchandise. The service was great and faster than I expected on a busy Saturday afternoon. My sister and I ordered the Single Patty 302 Burger. She got all the fixings, while I opted to customize mine. This burger is amazing and should cost more than $7.50! The fries or onion rings for $3!!! The onion rings are the bomb!!! They remind me of Sonic, but better! Fresh! My sister had the Oreo milk shake and stated that it was amazing!! If you are in Wheaton, definitely visit this spot! It's good and inexpensive! The drinks are phenomenal as well! read more

Love this place! 302 Wheaton has quickly become one of my favorite local spots. The burgers are seriously some of the best I've had--super juicy without being greasy, and the size is just right. Not ridiculously huge, but still filling. Plus, you can customize them with tons of toppings, which is always a win. The fries are delicious, but the portion feels pretty small for $5.50. That's my only gripe--would love just a little more bang for the buck there, so taking off one star for that. They've also got a great rotating beer selection with lots of options, including some local brews. We usually grab a table on the patio--such a nice, relaxed vibe out there, especially on a sunny day. It's just a solid, chill spot for a casual meal. I'll definitely be back, and I've already been recommending it to friends. If you're anywhere near Wheaton and in the mood for a great burger and a beer, give this place a try! read more

The food here is very average I feel for the hype this place gets. It's pretty pricy for what you're getting, and they upcharge for everything possible. ex: 50 cents upcharge for whipped cream on your milkshake just seems bizarre. It's also very family oriented despite having a bar and it's guaranteed that you cannot eat here without having children running around you the entire time. If it's something you don't mind then great, but definitely something to consider if you don't want that experience. I'd give the burger a 6/10, there are definitely better places for the price point. They have a nice patio area (overrun with kids) if that's something you like as well. read more

Excellent food, from Chicago style hotdogs to excellent house made chili! Appropriate pricing for what they serve as well. Amazing environment and staff, hospitable, caring and extraordinary service. Absolutely amazing selection and rotation of craft beers, outside of staff and environment, probably the strongest point of 302. Flights are absolutely amazing choices too!! read more

Very simple, casual burger joint with vegetarian options. There was nothing extraordinary about their food but if you're looking for a classic burger, this is a great option. The burger was cooked perfectly and all the ingredients were fresh. You have to pay for fries on the side. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating with friendly staff. *safe for nut allergies* read more

302 Wheaton - Single 302 Burger - Burgers Near Me - Wheaton, Illinois

The two worst things about my visit were - The line was seriously long, but it was a springtime Friday at 5:30p. - The old-fashioned was made by people too young to know how to properly make it, and it tasted like it. It was not good. Other than that, I enjoyed my visit. We had a party of 4. As packed as it was, we were able to find seating with no issues. I enjoyed the small-town feel of this restaurant. Kids were running around, music was playing, the Bulls game was on tv, and I was pleasantly surprised to learn that they sell wine & spirits. It was utopian. The employees are nice. They didn't nickel and dime me for all of the bbq sauce that I asked for. I know the food was good bc my two boys demolished their chicken tenders without hesitation! My only regret is that I didn't get to try the cookies and cream milkshake. I guess that's my reason to go back - SOON! read more

This place is probably not the best place for food but the drinks were good. It's typical bar food and not anything special. Quality- got the chicken burger and it was very dry. The chicken tenders were also not very crispy and came out a bit soggy. Quantity- not much comes out for the money. Atmosphere- can get quite packed in here and is hard to hear what people are saying. Service- pretty fast. read more

This is a nice fast food option similar to five guys, that burger joint, etc. You'll order at the counter and pick up at the pick up window. The restaurant is really open and spacious. They have a nice outdoor seating area as well. It's in the center of a shopping complex. I ordered the 302 single burger. It was cooked perfectly. I would definitely get this again! I had tator tots as my side, they were delicious. They also offer beer, milkshakes, fries, and chicken options on their menu. Staff was very friendly! I would definitely come back! read more

My wife and I ate at 302 for the first time. We both had the single burger and split a fry. The best value in Wheaton and a great place to take the kids. The menu is limited and geared toward families. The menu includes burgers, hot dogs, chilli, fries, tots, grilled cheese. I have to rate them 5 stars due to their good basic food and family friendly pricing. We will be back. read more

While food and service is good, Ownership should be concerned. Employee coughing behind the bar the last two visits. Tonight, sneezed towards the taps, then blows his nose in a used tissue from his pocket and walks right by the sink. New management team needs to be trained how to handle employees that are ill. With all the viruses and flu bugs going around, employees coughing or sneezing should be closely monitored. Food and Service was very good, but after experiencing a major flu 2 months ago fingers crossed read more

Food is delicious and drinks are great! The seating and area to be able play games is wonderful!

Delicious fun and not expensive. We love having this spot in our town! Patio is cool and a cute place to take the kiddos. They can be a little wild, but I love knowing they have a place to run around. read more

Greta burger, fries and value. A great place for the kids to run around as you drink a nice beer and finish off your fries.

Local place in downtown, great for families taking the kids out for dinner. Tent area is a little loud, I had a burger and tots. Will definitely be back again. read more

Great burgers. Great beers. Great Service. I'd say for the price their burgers are excellent. I would recommend getting a side of the shlacker(?) sauce with fries - so good! I love that they have an ever rotating list of beers. The type of place I check in to see if they ever put some of my favorite breweries or beers on taps. The environment is good - always a great place to watch sports and chat. read more

Best place in town to bring your kids. Menu features more than hamburgers and is reasonably priced. A bonus is the also have adult drinks while children eat. Sure beats MacD. read more

Great place, loses one star because the menu digitally with their QR code doesn't match the menu they have on their board, makes ordering a pain because I couldn't see the actual menu if I didn't go up to make the order Otherwise, food was good, not amazing but if I was in the area and wanted good prices and good food, I would definitely think of 302. We sat in the heated outdoor patio/tent and really liked the ambience. Great customer service too read more

Been here a few other times. Always good. New appreciation for the outdoor seating and that you can bring your dog too! The tables all have umbrellas and there is a pergola above the other tables. The garage doors were open to allow indoor/ outdoor seating with ac! Our food came so fast we couldn't believe it! I got the double impossible burger. Always makes me wonder if it's really vegan! My family got the chicken and hamburgers. All so nice and thin. Thick pickles and lettuce, onion and tomato. The fries were thin, a tiny bit too salty but I do love me some salt, maybe say no salt if you don't like or want salt.This place is way cool, we walked past one night and they had dumb and dumber projected in the brick wall to watch while eating!! Love the whole vibe. Definitely check it out! read more

We couldn't pass up enjoying the beautiful weather this weekend, so we stopped by 302 Wheaton for a few beers!! This spot gives me trendy concession stand vibes in the best way... The food is all straight forward (burgers, hot dog, chicken tenders, pretzels, fries, etc.) but I was impressed with the quality! The burger patty was flavorful and I loved the sauce. The pretzel was also huge and the mayo/spicy ketchup type dip for it was super tasty. I wouldn't come here for dinner on its own, but the food is very solid to compliment the beer and satisfy appetites! They have a huge variety of beer, and the combination of basics and local craft options was perfect. I enjoyed the lemonade beer from a Chicago brewery that I can't remember, as well as the wild berry seltzer!! They definitely have enough variety that anyone can find something they enjoy. The ambiance felt hit or miss - I loved the set up with the dog friendly patio, fireplace, and picnic tables. However, there were A LOT of kids running around screaming. They have projector floor games for kids, and it created enough excitement in the tent that it was hard to talk over their screaming. If you have kids this seems like the perfect spot to be, but if not I'd try to come later in the evening and/or find a table inside!! read more

Burger is tiny! Beware or better yet just order 1 with double patty. I fairly enjoyed the burger and onion rings. Can't go wrong with that instead of fries. The fries reminded me little of in&out! It's has lots of room so it's good for big parties! I didn't try the milkshakes but they did look very very good. All in all burger was little above average nothing to special but it's still good and a must try. read more

Need to clean, kids running everywhere, food mediocre. Used to be a fun place to relax with family. It is going downhill.

I loved this place. It's got such a 'hangout' vibe to it and I love that. The first thing I thought after going there was "I wish I knew about this place earlier. I would've brought friends." It seems like a perfect summer hangout spot. We went while it was still a little cold out but it's still great. The pricing on the food was very affordable and the food was great. The service is good and really easy to follow. The ambiance there is nice. It's like a modern twist on a burger bar, but it can be a family or friends hangout spot. They also have milkshakes that you can add alcohol to for adults which is awesome. I'll definitely be back! read more

Solid food, with downtown Chicago drink prices. I guess wheaton is affluent enough of an area to support this. The burger was solid and had a good ratio of meat to buns to topping. I would get it again. The food itself was in line with what I expected. I was a bit surprised at the 9.00 pint of beer. It was a craft beer but it was Maplewood not like its rare. The place was slammed so it definitely seemed like a local favorite. I am sure some of this was due to the late season heat wave everyone was enjoying read more

Positives: Burgers are really really tasty. I don't mind the seat yourself environment. We've gone around 6 on a Friday and the wait isn't very long. Cons: Tiny tiny portion for the kids meal ($7) It was SO LOUD in there. I had a headache when I left. Kids running around in the inside and outside seating areas screaming at the top of their lungs. Not necessarily the business' fault, BUT I wonder if they could do something to help deaden sound. I have three young kids and they even commented on the noise. The fries are nothing to write home about and a very small portion. read more

Not where we intended to go for lunch, but 302 does the simple things so well that we're going to have to come back. We were coming back from the (very, very small) music store down the street, and it was getting to be late for lunch. Since we were in downtown Wheaton anyway, and I'd gone here first sometime during the pandemic, I figured I'd check it out in person. I got a cheeseburger (single) with fries, and a drink. The kids got kids meals (which I didn't try). It's surprisingly easy to get a cheeseburger wrong, but 302 came through. Both cheesy and surprisingly savory (they are apparently using some sort of special burger blend from the Wheaton Meat Company, and trust me, I noticed), the burger was well balanced and came out with the right flavor and texture. I also liked the fries, which almost came out greasy but were *not quite*; in addition, they were seasoned very well. I spied someone else's onion rings and kept it in mind for the next time. Given that you'd pay as much as I did at a national chain for lunch for 4... 302 Wheaton was the better deal. I'd be happy to come back; for a double next time. read more

**Lactose Intolerance Review** I have lactose intolerance so I must take lactase pills to help digest dairy. Often I avoid dairy but some places are just too good to avoid. When my wife and I are in town, we stop here. It's a small burger spot with a large outdoor seating area. The burgers are great. I've never had a chorizo burger before and they have one. I've also had their Wheaton burger which is their take on a classic burger. It's great. The pretzel bun is worth the extra dollar too. The portion for fries is good for one person but not so big you can split the fries. The same goes for the burgers. For this type of burger space I was surprised with the number of draft beer options. They carry mostly Illinois micro brews. They also seem to source all their ingredients from local producers or vendors. I really appreciated that. The prices for the quality of food is the best part. I'm tired of paying 15+ dollars for a burger and getting nothing really special. This place charges 10 for their double burger, a dollar for a pretzel bun upgrade and two dollars for added bacon. The fully loaded burger would come to 13. Then if you get fries you're back to 15 dollars. These burgers are worth it. The staff are really friendly and helpful. We really to appreciate their positive attitude and hospitality. I'll say that with lactase pills I had little to no discomfort after my meal. They put American cheese on the burger. I would have appreciated the option to switch the cheese for cheddar. Cheddar is naturally low on n lactose. I still really enjoyed the meal. Worth it. read more

Positives Quickly took order Large beer selection Very clean Negatives First timer here so I just ordered a single burger and a beer. To me the burger was comparable to a Culver's burger. Not terrible, but not exciting either. It wasn't that filling. I would have ordered a double if I knew the size. read more
