The burgers here are fantastic. If you really want the amount of meat you'd get in a "traditional" burger, I'd recommend ordering double meat since the patties are smashed pretty thin. I've tried several of these burgers and you can't go wrong with any of them. They also taste especially great with a beer from the brewery it is sitting in. read more

The food her was actually great- we tried a bunch of things and they were all good. Service was mixed- 2 waitstaff- one carried the load while the other chatted with friends and took care of regulars. Luckily the server NOT assigned our table noticed and took care of us- draft not super cold but I would definitely go back. Place was a bit loud and active due to a pub crawl- it's crowded because it should be- read more

Top 3 best burger in Frederick! This spot is tied for number 1 in my very humble opinion. My family and I have been here 3 times now, and we've all had an opportunity to try different variations of their burgers. It is located inside of Olde Mother Brewery, which is a plus if you also enjoy having a beer with your meal! The burger patties are made with beef AND bacon! Hence, the name Fifty Fifty. Need I say more?! The last time I came I tried the Ogre which was SO good. It was nice and juicy and just right. Also ordered a side of onion rings and OMG they were perfectly fried and crispy. The vibe is very casual inside. What you'd expect of a brewery. It's good to bring your kids, go with a friend, or even on a date! The seating in the back, near Fifty Fifty and by the stage, is picnic bench style seating. I don't have much to say about the service as you place your order through a tablet and just wait for your food to be ready at the counter. There isn't much interaction with the folks working, but we've never had a bad experience with them thus far. If you're looking for a great burger, look no further and give this place a try! read more

Sorry no pictures because I destroyed that burger. Mrs and our four year old stopped here for lunch. We've been looking for an another good burger place. We remembered having 50/50 at a food truck and it was fantastic. The restaurant didn't disappoint, we got the Ogre burger, She's my cherry burger and some standard Dino nuggets . Really good quality meats and fries. Make sure you get some 50/50 sauce for those fries. We'll definitely be back 10/10. read more

Was quite excited to try some burgers at fifty fifty. My selections were the default 50/50 beef and bacon burger and the default chicken sandwich. The burger patties were thin and dry but the buns were fresh. The chicken burger was more of cornmeal type crust which meant it was hard / crunchy instead of crispy. I prefer juicy burgers in general. The option to select multiple different toppings was a bonus, but unfortunately I was underwhelmed by the burgers. I did have a wheat beer from old mother which shares the space. The beer was refreshing. read more

So, the Fifty Fifty crew has a food truck. It made its way to our little food truck alley (the last two weeks). 1. The burgers are amazing, and the options and quality are high. Okay, they do include sweet pickles, which I am not a huge fan of, but everything else is perfect. Burger quality (it's 1/2 and 1/2) is amazing. The burgers are made in the smash style, so they mix the crispy edge with a flatter burger. Often, burgers cooked in this style end up dry, but not from 50/50! 2. oh, the fries (and the chipotle dipping sauce). Oh my. I am a fry guy, and Fifty Fifty does a great job with their old bay Fries. Overall an amazing burger, which is sort of well nice! read more

Solid place for hamburgers (half beef/half bacon), served on delicious Martins potato rolls. One of the cooks was friendly, answering all my questions about the menu, although he was busy. My wife's onion rings were also very good. The only downers were the fries ... they were over cooked and very salty (too much Old Bay) and the lack of fountain sodas was also a downer. read more

Very good burgers, I fact they could be the best in DTF or Downtown Frederick. However they lack a little in the service department. They say they'll shout out your name when your order is ready. They don't! Or if they do then maybe Horton could hear them, we couldn't. Not a major thing, but it would be nice. Thankfully lots of beer to help you get your thirst up beforehand. read more

Yummy food and relaxed atmosphere. Would recommend to other as a good smash burger place

10/10 loved the food! Although the fries could be a little less seasoned but that was my fault, should've asked for less seasoning. Other than that everything was amazing! read more

I am a vegetarian (not vegan) and really enjoyed the plant-based smash burger. You can build your own (many toppings are free), or have any of the menu combos but with the plant burger instead. I had the one with sour cherry jam and herbed goat cheese. So good! My only complaint is that they use the absolute cheapest buns you can find (like Walmart 8 pack). It would really elevate the experience if they upgraded the bun. Easy to order online or on their computerized menu in person, easy to carry out or eat there or in the brewery. read more

LOVE THE FOOD HERE. Was looking for a place like this so I would not have to cook and there is nothing negative to say. I will definitely be returning. read more

Fifty fifty has smash style burgers that are really good as well as chicken options. I really like the I can't feel my face burger. The chicken for me was ok. Crispy but not quite enough flavor. Their beef is definitely the better choice. Their fries and onion rings are also solid. My only complaint is I do wish they had an alternative to the bacon mixed into the ground beef. Some people don't eat pork, so maybe a turkey bacon or even just beef would be nice. Because they are attached to old mother brewing you get the second hand benefit of the brewery ambiance. The service is quick, and their staff is really nice. In the summer they have featured desserts from local spots that are always really tasty. A great place to grab a bite and beer after work. read more

Very good burgers made with a mix up of beef and bacon. Thin, juicy, and crispy on the outside. The flavor is there! They have some unusual concoctions as well. Mine had cherry preserves and an herbed goat cheese, it was delicious! There is even a hot burger made with ghost peppers that you have to sign a waiver for. Hubby is dieting so he got a chicken sandwhich, said it was average. But you don't come to a burger joint to get an award winning chicken sandwich! The space is very open with two rooms and some outside dining. It's situated inside an operating brewery so you see the large barrels. It is a little on the dark side, which I struggle with. You order at the bar or counter and pick up when your name is called. Never heard my name but walked up and my order was there. I will say I do think it was expensive for what it was and did leave hungry. The burgers run $13-$14, and come with nothing, not even chips. They use a potato roll as a bun which got soft/messy really quickly and is on the smaller side - I do feel a broiche roll would do it better justice. Street parking was easy to secure within a block's walk. I would come again. read more

Consistently one of the best burgers I've ever had. You order on a screen, fries are separate. The fries are amazing too. It's around $18 maybe for fries and burger, give or take, but 100% worth it. Cannot recommend this place more. read more

Fifty fifty does it again!! Tried their seasonal peaches burger and like always, it slaps. Such a unique flavor profile but definitely works. My favorite "Peter Piper" burger is top 5 burgers of all time...do yourself a favor if you haven't already. Oh and their old bay fries are great, would recommend the sweet potato fries w blueberry ketchup with the sweet peaches burger. read more

This is THE best burger spot in Maryland. Every time I'm in Frederick it's like I have to eat here.

Awesome burgers. Hands down one of, if not THE, best burger places in town. Great prices, quick service.

I do not give reviews often, but i had to go out of my way to give this 5 stars. Hands down best burger I've ever had. Service was also amazing and my family's food was ready in 10 minutes. We will be coming back for sure! 10/10 recommendation read more

The burgers are amazing! They're probably my favorite smash burgers I've had. It's a little on the pricey side, but I feel it's totally worth it. I always go here when I'm in town! read more

We really enjoyed our burgers, old bay fries, and onion rings. We have been talking about the burgers since we had them a couple days ago. The sides are great, but unless you are starving, big enough to share. You won't regret dropping by to enjoy the best burger I've had in a long time. read more

Oh dang this place is so good. The chicken sandwich sent me to my happy place. Didn't have to wait too long and everyone was friendly. Had tried their food truck before but enjoyed their spot in Old Mother Brewing a lot. We will be back! read more

Just had an I can't feel my face burger. It had a very good flavor. And yes it was spicy but not as bad as you would think. I would definitely recommend this food truck. Check out the online menu. A lot of different burgers to choose from. I would post a link on here , I'm not in charge of making sure you see it. LOL!! read more

This was hard to find at first but so worth the hunt! Craving a burger this past saturday had to search high and low for a new spot. Found this place on Instagram and they did not disappoint. First of all located inside a brewery in downtown frederick; beer and a burger what a combo! I ordered the old fashioned and it was more of a salty and a bit sweet concoction but i loved each second of it. Freshly made in their open kitchen and the two ladies there were very helpful in breaking down the menu for us. They even had cute merchandise to buy to support! The menu was extremely organized and plenty of indoor seating. Outdoor seating available as well but it was a little cold. Go with the old fashioned or the ogre! read more

Delicious burgers in Frederick! Fast service and full of flavor, definitely recommended for a visit. The vibe is also super chill and relaxed. Went there with an infant and a kiddo and 3 adults and had ample seating. read more

Burgers were DELICIOUS. One of the best I've had in ages. Fries were also quite good. Good portion size for the price, a lot of options, and the service was fantastic. Food was prepared in just a few minutes. Will absolutely come again. read more

These folks know what they're doing. For my dime, the best burger in Frederick County. just fantastic!

Service was fine to very good (it was a take out order). The burgers rocked and so did the setting. Live music on stage, next door to a popular brewery. But I was there for burgers half bacon and half local beef in a two patty smash burger nice crispy edges and then some fun, creative, local farm to table staples topping them. It was a heck of a burger- the peanut butter concoction was awesome. The poblano pepper deal very good. So glad I stopped. read more

They are a bit pricey, but the food is delicious and the staff are friendly whether you are visiting them at Olde Mother or at their food truck. The PB burger is my favorite! read more

Omg!! The burgers are so good! And their sweet potato fries is good too!! If I had room in my belly, I would order more burgers and fries! Lol read more

Good food! Love the ambiance. Friendly service. Overall Better experience and lovely time. Would return

Yesterday I picked up pretzels & beer cheese from Fifty-Fifty Burgers at Olde Mother. For $12 I got 2 small very firm pretzels & a huge container of beer cheese. Not great! Might want to stick to the burgers. Next time I'll pick up my pretzel from Pizza & Pretzel Creation in Frederick! read more

I ordered the Old Fashioned Burger with a side of Onion Rings. Onion Rings were amazing, perfectly crispy. The burger toppings were sound but I didn't get much flavor out of the patty itself. It was still good though. I do have to say, I've encountered better burgers around Frederick. read more

Absolutely incredible burgers! The specialty burgers are fantastic but my personal favorite is the she's my cherry pie burger. The herbed goat cheese is UNREAL! Thanks, Fifty Fifty! read more

Their burgers are 50% pork. All their burgers. We dont eat pork. We didnt realize the content of their burgers until after we placed the order. We asked if they had anything non-pork to swap with. We got a "nope" from the employee. After reading the menu we asked to get all our burgers swapped with chicken patties. None of the chicken sandwiches received matched the "extras" orders we placed (lettuce/tomatoes/cheese)... To top it off, the chicken was inedible, and the mushrooms were still frozen on my sandwich. We did arrive right before closing. But i expected more. I literally wished I grabbed a chicken sandwich from mcdonalds!!!!instead of what i was eating. read more

Great burgers, onion rings and Old Bay seasoned fries, friendly service, inside Olde Mother Brewery - good beer and excellent Pinot Noir. These burgers are AMAZING! Incredible combinations suggested on the menu; or one may customize exactly as desired, with however many toppings one wants. They also offer chicken option and a meatless option - simple, succinct menu- that which they offer and prepare are all delicious! The old-fashioned burger is killer- bourbon molasses, caramelized onions, pickles, and cheese. One may add other toppings, gratis, if desired. this was perfect, as suggested. Their burgers are all 50/50 beef/bacon (except their meatless option). My dining companion had their PB PC burger - it includes peanut butter. I was shocked at idea of that combo; but it is incredibly popular! Everyone was raving about it! I had some - it IS GOOD! That old-fashioned one is tough to top! This place is great, reasonably priced and way better than the very expensive burger place in Leesburg. read more

Great burgers. Only complaint if any would be that the patties are too thin. Could easily eat two normal burgers. Great location, tons of space to eat and free parking at Grind and Gravel. read more

This truck rocks, makes great burgers and sides. The best thing is they are consistently good. I would recommend this food to any burger lover read more

I've always liked fifty fifty burger. In fact they're my husbands favorite burger hands down. So if you want a burger that tastes great, go for it. However if you want the person serving your burger to also treat you with respect... maybe don't. Went to their new(ish) location inside Olde Mother tonight with 3 friends. Ordered via the QR code. Went up to check on my order & mentioned to the cook with shoulder length hair that if they'd ever consider getting gluten free buns that would be awesome. He either didn't hear me or ignored me. Never one to be deterred by straight up rude folks I pleasantly asked him again a minute later when he faced me to bag my order. His response: "Never gonna happen." Not like hahah never gonna happen you silly gf folks. More like a straight up distain for me for even speaking to him, much less for making a recommendation. Between that and the rude Olde Mother employee it'll be the last time my money gets spent at either establishment. I'd much rather enjoy the friendly staff at Attaboy, Idiom or Frederick Social. read more

Burgers are tasty but pricey for what they are. Not very big and light on toppings. Onions rings are EXTREMELY greasy and a ridiculous $9.00, fries again good but nothing special normal sized for 5.00. Can of soda 3.00. Two people are out 50$$$ for a burgers and fries lunch with a side of grease indigestion. Guys working there are rather rude as well. There are way too many better options in Frederick to get a great meal with friendlier service for that price and not feel ripped off. read more
