If you haven't eaten at Al's you're missing out! The burgers are famous and I now know why. If you like malts, shakes and delicious burgers you'll lone theirs! This is one of those old fashioned burger joints with a ton of character and fantastic food! You gotta try Al's! read more

2.5 Stars - Wait was long, staff seemed overwhelmed and weren't very nice. I had a couple questions about the menu and the lady was pretty short with me. The burgers we had were very tough and over cooked. The fries were good and Chocolate shake was pretty good. No recycle and they still use styrofoam cups (boo!). We would most likely skip this stop on our next trip to the coast. read more

Great old time drive in, they even have that smell from my childhood summers, great burgers and clam strips

Order the humdinger with cheese, close your eyes and take a bite.... the delicious taste will take you back in the 60's - Yum! The burger is spectacular, and the milk shakes are awesome - made with real ice cream. Great fries, great service - love it! This is not a sit down restaurant. Go in, place your order, then they'll send you back to your car. Once your order is ready - they'll knock on the window to get your attention to come get your order. Quirky, old fashioned fun with super yummy food. read more

Good food, cheap, but no bathroom and two picnic benches to sit which we shared outside. NO indoor seating. No good for travelers

It's 8pm, not super familiar with the area, yelp directed us to Al's Hum Dinger. Much better than a common fast-food joint, but the burgers were super-sloppy, I know that will turn some of you on, so take the information as you will. Bacon was thick and cooked perfectly, beef was overshadowed by mayo and mustard IMO. Fry Sauce IS super good, I wish I would have ordered two for our one order of fries. 2 baconburgers, 1 fry, 1 fry sauce and 2 medium cokes came to under $16.00. read more

The scallop and chips here is fantastic. We stopped here once by chance on our sat through town. It was so good we had to come back on other trips. The wait can be a little bit but the milkshakes are great and the food is too. read more

Im fairly new to the west coast and have tried burgers from all the most popular places in Seattle and have ALWAYS been let down. I was not sure there was a single great burger in town until Five Guys started opening (an east coast favorite). Fast forward to a road trip to Ocean Shores and a lunch break in the Aberdeen area. We popped up yelp and saw the crazy ratings for Al's and just had to try it out. Needless to say we were totally blown away! Not only was it the best burger in the Aberdeen/Hoquiam area, but I would say the best in the state and the better than most on the East Coast. Its hard to make a 5 hour (total) road trip just for a burger but I have almost done it a few times. I can say though we will never go within 30 miles of Al's without stopping there. read more

Delicious, we'll-priced, convenient location, and great service! My friend claims they have the best gizzards he's had in 30 years. Kids loved the cheeseburgers and fry sauce. Adults LOVED the Haliwich and chocolate milkshake. read more

Real glad we stopped here. Boyfriend got the halibut and chips which were DELICIOUS and affordable (probably the most expensive thing at $10). Quality was very good & the coleslaw was delicious. I got a veggie burger (which shocked the heck out of me) and it was delicious ($5). Def a small dive burger joint. Fry sauce was pretty good. Standard crinkle fries (although we could have subbed them out for gizzards). Peanut shake was AMAZING. I was pretty hungry when we stopped through here & I was sad when the food was gone. Would have been 5 stars except for the staff are pretty idiotic. Had to repeat my veggie burger no tomato plus fries order 4x and they still messed it up and then refused to right it. (Looking back on this it was pretty humorous) Also, when your order is ready they bang on a full size window. PROS: Food, selection, portion sizes, price, neat location, peanut butter shake CONS: staff read more

Amazing shakes!!! My family loves coming here for dinner. Services is awesome as well

Serving: Famously good milk shakes and ice cream, hot dogs, burgers, chicken, Pepsi products. Very amazing burgers, fries, fry sauce, shakes and ice cream. If you love a good old fashioned burger joint that knows how to make seriously awesome food, this is it. I've lived in the area for 14 years and visited longer than that and never heard a bad comment about their food. Just down the road a little further west is the Grizzly Den, they also have good food, better fries (the seasoned waffle fries) but Hum-Dinger's burgers and fry sauce are the best. There is no indoor seating, only two picnic tables outside which are usually not used due to our weather, and less than 10 parking spaces so it can get crowded on a nice day at lunch time. If that is the case I go to Grizzly Den which is a little more expensive but never a disappointment. The Hum-Dinger parking lot is also extremely small and awkward to access from the main road because it sits right at a strange intersection on a very busy highway. As for being "wayyyyyy over priced" that has got to be a joke. read more

All subsequent visits here after my first review have lived up to that review! The people who work here are totally awesome, friendly folks! You would never expect this good of service with food this good from such a small place, but apparently they make it happen! read more

YUM. The bacon cheese burger came with all the fixins, in perfect proportions to the bacon and burger. I don't typically love beer batter, but theirs was outstanding on the onion rings. Fast, friendly service. We will return for sure!! read more

Having a deluxe cheeseburger, onion rings w/Fri sauce...OMG Fast food chains have nothing to compare with this place.. SOOOOO GOOOOD !!!! read more

This is the best hamburger joint on the harbor,in my opinion. Buttered toasted buns on the grill and the best meat patties and all the fixings you can handle and some french fries and that yummy sauce for dipping. I've been going to Al's Hum Dinger since I was a little kid and it really hasn't changed much. They still figure out your bill on paper (old school) style and they still pound on the window when your order is ready. Love it. Stop in and give them a go. I highly recommend. Yum Yum!!! read more

more like 3.5 stars. on our road trip through washington state, we happened to eat here we had the humdingers . they were good, meat was pretty well seasoned and blended. the fries were good as well. price was a bit high for what you get imho. overall: good, nothing amazing though read more

Love, love and love Humdinger, it is a must stop. We try to stop every time we are headed to Ocean Shores. Keep up the great job.

I have been coming here since I was a child and I recently moved back to the area. To see that the food is just as delicious as when I was a kid, I love it here! The fries are always amazing to eat. The service is always pleasant I will always be a returning customer till they close. 10 out 10 would recommend! read more

Very nice people. Good fast service. Burger was fresh and tasty, but it was really nothing special. Same with the fries and onion rings. Ok place but a bit out of the way for us. read more

Great food, great service, great ice cream. I've lived in Hoquiam my whole life and I have always loved the Hum Dinger! I have never left unsatisfied. read more

I've been a local life long fan for 30+ years, and you cannot mistake the smell of Hum Dinger food. Came through Hoquiam last weekend and just had to have a malted blackberry milkshake, but once I stopped in I couldn't leave without a steak sandwich, some onion rings and some fry sauce. The sandwich was cooked perfectly, but I should have asked for some ketchup and cheese on it. Nevertheless it was tasty. And the onion rings were perfect too, especially paired with the fry sauce. Mmm mm mm... They also make the best shakes here, I always get a blackberry malted, but I've heard others get something akin to a smores shake... definitely worth looking into... It may be hard to get to(either crossing traffic as you go South on 101 or having to drive through all the other tasty choices in Aberdeen and Hoquiam), but it's well worth the wait... read more

Come here frequently! Great food and even better prices! We usually just get burgers and fries and my son likes their shakes.

Found this place literally by accident. It's a nice little local business that have a variety of everything from burgers to fish 'n chips to chicken gizzards. The burgers are obviously their specialty. Average priced for a nice sized burger. Just make sure you ask questions about your burger though. I ordered a cheeseburger thinking it had the works, but it was actually a burger with cheese and condiments. I can't hold that against them though. The burger I had was good. It's completely take out food. No indoor seating, which is fine, except the day that we discovered this gem it was pouring rain! We ended up eating in the which was fine also. I'd only go here if you happen to find yourself in Hoquiam for some reason. You won't be disappointed by the food or service. read more

Best burgers fries and shakes in southwest Washington. Whenever we head to the olympics or the coast this is our must-stop place for burgers, worth a Sunday drive from Olympia ! A plus is that they're open late on Sunday's .. read more

Delicious! Make sure to get the fry sauce when you go! We had the humdinger burger, which is enormous, and the fried scallops. Yummy! Fries are amazing. It's a very small place, and if they beat on the window to let you know your order is done, they aren't being rude. I promise!! Very sweet people. I definitely say, go get you some! read more

Al's Hum Dinger - The amazing Humdinger! - Burgers Near Me - Hoquiam, Washington

We just found this hidden gem while going to the beach. The burgers and fries are delicious. The portions are huge and next time we will split a fish n chips. Much better than the other burger den in the area. Do yourself a favor and skip the fast food burger chains. Have a real burger at Hum Dinger! read more

Hum-Dinger has been around forever and it's because they consistently provide some of the best burgers around. I've tried nearly everything on their menu, from burgers to ice cream, and I've never been disappointed. Their soft-serve ice cream is amazing, and they always have a featured flavor that compliments the season. Their Green River Floats are also a hit because you can't find Green River soda anywhere anymore! They've also recently added these blizzard-type ice cream treats that are listed on a small menu inside (I think they're called Polar Freeze), and they are BOMB! My recommendation for lunch is their classic Humdinger burger! I'd recommend it to anyone who loves a burger with all the fixin's! If you try this burger without one component, it won't be as good! So if you're not picky, the Humdinger burger is for you! Be sure to grab some extra napkins though, as it can be pretty messy! Their corn dogs are also super delicious... and cheap! Overall, Hum-Dinger is a staple for Hoquiam, and a must for anyone traveling through to the beach! There's seating outside, as well as rocks you can sit on that overlook the river! read more

Wow...what I love about local burger joints. Damn near perfect. Kind of grimy walk-in only dive (love it). Excellent bacon burger with butter toasted buns. Great crinkle cuts with fry sauce (a little heavy on the mayo would be my only minor complaint). Don't pass this one by!! read more

SO good!!! We were starving after a day of outdoor activities for the shorebird festival and needed a quick lunch- so we grabbed burgers, fries, and shakes and they were awesome! Great sauce on the burgers and fry sauce was great. Milkshakes were perfect too. Highly recommend if you need something quick! read more

I thought this place was super average. I got the shrimp dinner and it was not cheap and had little fried shrimps. It was a good amount though! They didn't say what it came with so after ordering, I realized it'd probably come with fries. Just make sure you ask to change the side if you don't want that! Because the cashier didn't inform us. It also comes with a cole slaw. It was a nice and quick stop but I didn't think this was anything special or a place that I would return to. read more

Friendly service and a menu with good variety make Hum Dinger a favorite stop in Hoquiam. The menu includes burgers and fries as well as many kinds of shakes, seafood baskets, BLT, and even fried gizzards. read more

I'm sitting in my car right now downing my burger and fries. So delicious. Such a simple hamburger yet so tasty. This fry sauce is also amazing. Everything is so flavorful. The workers are super friendly too. read more

Omg, I remember when this was the Dairy Queen with the great big ice cream cone on the roof and then it was Fred's, Hum Dinger. That's lots of years ago. Yep, and the original place handed out free ice cream cones to the trick or treaters. Burgers have always been their strong suit. Wife and I stop there when we pass through and we've never been disappointed. Naw, we don't sit out on the rocks overlooking the river like I remember doing years ago. We recommend! read more

I love the Humdinger it has excellent hamburgers and shakes. I have been going here all my life and kind of have to agree with the review(that was hidden) that said the price is kind of high. You get what you pay for, if you want cheap food, get a burger at Mcdonalds and pay a buck, if you want good food pay a little more and get good food. I highly recommend the Humdinger. read more

This is a delicious hamburger stand on the side of the road. Lovely staff, four friendly women working there. This is still miles better than McDonald's, and next time I will get less sauce and elevate the food to 4 stars:) I had the HumDinger, husband had the BLT. Lots of sauce on both. BLT was delicious, but a bit too much mayo. Burger was a little overcooked for me and coated in fry sauce.. Fries were standard wavy cut, fry sauce like Big Mac special sauce. I will return if I need fast food again in the area. Just remember, HALF SAUCE on anything you order - and maybe double fry sauce:) Because it is darn tasty. read more

Just love the Hum Dinger! Great flavor that reminds me of being a kid again. Summer fun at the beach and camping! Great views of the boats in the river. read more
