Previous review: Not the best hot dog I've had, but the service was great and they were kind enough to accommodate us right before closing. The beef hot dog was a good size for a snack and pretty affordable for the area. I liked the variety of topping and sauce options, but the hot dog itself was a bit cold, which was a bit of a letdown.

The dude ended up getting the sausage dog with the works. The food cart actually smelled delicious but I didn't get anything as I wanted to save my appetite.

I believe the sausage dog was $5 which wasn't bad at all! Give them a try! Especially if you need a snack on your beach day!

We loved Betty Burgers! We absolutely love Betty's Burgers in Santa Cruz! This place has become…read moreone of our favorite spots whenever we're in the area. The burgers are always juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection, and you can really taste the quality in every bite. The sides are just as good--crispy fries and delicious shakes that complete the whole experience. What makes it even better is the great atmosphere and friendly staff. You always feel welcomed, and the service is quick and attentive. If you're in Santa Cruz and craving a really good burger, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommended!

It's been a while since we've been here, and the last time we visited Santa Cruz, we decided to…read morestop here and grab some burgers. I expected the same quality of the burgers many moons ago; however, this wasn't the case on our return trip. Firstly, the service wasn't as friendly this time around as the staff is mostly consisted of younger people in their early 20's. They were too busy concentrating on each other cracking jokes with one another instead of taking care of their customers. When we received our burgers, they weren't as juicy as our previous visits. The flavor was decent, but chewing on every bite resulted in a dry texture that wasn't appetizing. Our side of sweet potatoes was also inconsistent; some were soggy and some were crispy. Don't know what was happening in the kitchen, but all I recall observing was a lack of proper execution. Perhaps they needed to concentrate better on their tasks on hand. Overall, it's still a decent burger, but the quality is not the same compared to our previous visits. Betty would be somewhat disappointed.

The space is small with only outdoor seating, but the weather was perfect, so it worked out great. I really appreciated how many gluten-free options they offered. I decided to try a variety of tacos -- the Carnitas, the Fish, and the Breakfast taco -- along with a Fresca beverage and two gluten-free cookies. You can definitely tell they make their own corn tortillas, which made the tacos taste fresh. The Breakfast taco was my favorite by far -- so flavorful. The fish taco was good but could've used a little more seasoning, and the Carnitas taco was just okay. The gluten-free cookies were surprisingly good and tasted pretty fresh. Overall, it's a great little spot to grab something quick, especially if you're already out walking along the coast. I'd definitely stop by again for a casual, fresh lunch.

It's not too sweet, and the whole blueberries inside are plump and juicy.

I also love the humor and friendliness of the man who is always at the Beckmann's stall at the farmer's markets! He is such a hoot. Once we were having such a good time hootin' and hollerin' that we garnered a crowd, and they didn't know what was going on. The crowd thought he must be doing a giveaway or performance or something -- haha! I wish I had photos to attach to this review, but no Beckmann's baked goods survives long enough for a photo.

Let me tell ya, this is one of the best burgers I've had in a hot minute. I got the Western Burger, which had chilli w/ beans, jalapeños, and barbecue sauce. This burger was perfect in basically every way. The chili was incredibly rich and savory, the jalapeños added a nice crunch and acidity, and the barbecue sauce added some sweetness. So many flavors at once that worked so well. It was well worth the mess. My wife got the Bacon Cheeseburger with a 1/3 lb patty. I really appreciated how many cheese options they had. The veggies were fresh and abundant. And that bacon was perfection. Crisp, but still had a good chew, and was thick. This was a classic done right. The fries were also fantastic. Nice and crisp but fluffy on the inside. And the portions were very generous. The place overall just feels like exactly what you want from a local burger shop. A charming burger sculpture on the roof, very friendly staff, ton of outdoor seating. If you've heard about or have been meaning to come to this place, it's well worth the hype.
