If you're very hungry, get the regular which is a double pattie. Fries are fresh and crispy. They looked like they were double fried which make them extra crunchy, but tender in the middle. The dipping sauces are a spicy ketchup or what might be their version of ketchup mayo. We grabbed some burgers after a comedy show. It was Thursday night, and only a few customers. Although a few groups came in after we got our food. The space is railroad style with the kitchen at the very back. You've got to ride an elevator down a level to get to the bathroom. The service is quick and friendly. Order at the counter and pick up at the front too. Enjoy!

When I was asked if I wanted potatoes, I said yes (it was my first time there), and I left a small tip as well. When I got back to my truck and looked at the total, it came out to $33 for two breakfast burritos. That felt pretty steep for what I ordered. Just something to be aware of if you're stopping by for breakfast.

The staff is straightforward and may come off as rude but they are just busy all the time and all different types of people come through. Especially late nights before the bars close. Parking lot sometimes gets packed so street parking sometimes. I remember when this place had barely a spot to eat and now they have a whole dinning room. Definitely the only Chubbys I will eat at.

Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard

One of my favorite past times is going to fast food chains in other states that I can find in my…read morehome state and I was recommended Good Times Burgers and Frozen Custard by my bestie. I haven't had a chance to try their food yet since the last time I got horrible altitude poisoning and the second time, the Uber driver just drove off with it (terrible, I know). This time I stomached a 30 minute walk through downtown to grab lunch here. It's a small restaurant meant to be a drive thru. However, there's some outdoor umbrella covered tables and seating. I've seen some people order and just eat in their car in the lot. There's a window for you to walk up to order if you're not driving through. I ordered: 1) The Combo #1: -You can get large or medium for combo orders and I got the smaller one so that I can have some space for dessert. The fountain drink cup is still quite plentiful for the smaller size. -This combo comes with a serving of their wild fries and the deluxe cheeseburger. -The fries are golden fried to crispiness and nicely seasoned with their blend of spices. Think campfire fries seasoning, if you know what I'm talking about. Solid fries. -The deluxe cheese burger comes with lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, ketchup, pickles, mayo, and mustard, with American cheese (melted!). -Very mustard-y burger in a good way, a bit bigger than my fist, and, again, is a solid fast food classic. It is a bit messy though so keep some napkins on hand. -If anything, I want to say that this burger is a better version of what Burger King has since their burgers are a bit mustard-y too. 2) A single scoop of their frozen custard: -A must if you get anything form here. It's in their name! - I got the pumpkin pie flavor which is November's monthly special. -Comes with a dollop of whipped cream on top. -The custard is delicious. Very smooth and creamy, dense, but not impossible to scoop through with how soft it is. But it's not melty or watery either! It's sweet but not disgustingly so. Very yummy and I would come back to order more of their custard. Pretty good regional fast food chain!

I did not realize that Mason's Famous Lobster Rolls was a chain and is harbored in a new, clean and sleek shop. We ordered the New England clam chowder and a Bar Harbor lobster roll served Connecticut style with more lobster meat, butter and warm. The top split bun was nicely buttered and a bountiful amount of warm lobster. The meat was tender and sweet, a good roll even in Denver. The chowder had the same viscosity as water. There was no richness, thickness and uncious flavors I typically see in good chowder. I question whether it is homemade and not pre-made and warmed. Good seafood in a landlocked, middle of the US state was a dodgy choice. The lobster was good but the chowder was better at Whole Foods. My expectations were not high, but I was optimist. If you are not a coastal seafood aficionado, this was fine but not a WOW moment.

I had checked out the menu before I came and decided to order something outside of my norm, and went with their Italian without mayo, of course. It didn't take long for it to come out, nice and toasty. It was a mixture of Italian meats, provolone, onion, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and hot peppers. I love the super thin sliced onions. The veggies were fresh and the peppers added a nice little heat. The bread was toasty and fresh and I enjoyed the sandwich. There is a $4 difference between the 5 inch and the 7. I ordered the 7 but would have been fully satisfied by the 5. There weren't many people at tables but there were crumbs on every surface and the trash was full. I may have just missed the end of the lunch rush.

It was packed during the lunch rush, but they are a crazy efficient team. Don't let the long lines put you off. We placed our order with the cashier and took a seat. Within 15 minutes our number was being called. I went with the double-double with grilled onions and it was so good. Very flavorful and all the ingredients were fresh. The lettuce was nice and crispy which is always a huge plus. What I love most about this place is that there are several modifications you can make to the burger and fries because they are made to order. The inside of the restaurant itself is very well maintained. There are workers constantly cleaning the dining area and the bathrooms. So even though it is fast food, it doesn't feel gross. You can enjoy your food in a clean environment. It's also pretty close to the Denver airport so it makes it a good place to make a pit stop before or after a flight. They also have a drive-thru so you can eat while on your merry way.

Very tasty and filling. The fries were lightly salted, which was perfect. The veggies were fresh and crunchy. Spanakopita was not good. I did not finish it. It was nice and flaky, but the taste was off and the aftertaste was gross. Wouldn't recommend. Total was $23.49 after tip. Would definitely come back for just a gyro. The meal is just a little too much for me. Worth stopping by.
