Was recommended this spot by a friend, tried the special of the day "pizza burger" gf had a regular burger. Pizza was good but I liked hers better. Twisty fries were our side with a drink. 2 burgers, fries and a drink for under $40 was a good deal and the food was great definitely a spot I'd hit again when in Colorado visiting. Spacious interior and outside seating, service was quick and food served hot and fresh. Nice staff good price and good food read more

Bob's Atomic Burgers serves a pretty good burger. I wouldn't say it's the best I've ever had, but it was flavorful, cooked well, and definitely hit the spot. The menu has plenty of options to customize your burger, and one thing I thought was unique is that you fill out a paper order form with all of your toppings before handing it to the staff to place your order. We chose to sit on the pet-friendly patio with our dog, Luna, which was great until a surprise downpour rolled in. The patio tables have umbrellas, but they weren't enough to keep us (or our food) dry. We ended up grabbing the condiments and finishing our meal in the car instead. Obviously, the weather isn't their fault, but a little more covered seating would have been nice. I also would have loved to see Thousand Island dressing offered as a condiment--it would have been perfect on my burger. Fresh avocado as an add-on would have been another great option to take it to the next level. Overall, it's a fun, casual burger spot with good food, a dog-friendly patio, and friendly service. I'd definitely stop by again if I was in the Golden area. read more

This was one of the top ten burgers I've ever had in my life. My friends and I had just come back from a hike, so we were hungry! Folks behind the counter were quick to take and make our orders, and my gluten free bun and burger held together impressively well, despite its size. read more

My son and I stumbled across Bob's Atomic Burgers online while looking for somewhere to meet up for lunch, and I'm glad we did. It's located in Golden, Colorado, right across the street from the world-famous Coors Brewery, so the setting is already pretty cool and scenic. Bob's Atomic Burgers has a great neighborhood-joint feel: small, cozy, clean, and eclectic, with interesting stuff on the walls and a fun local vibe. When we walked in, there was a table near the door with order sleeves and paper forms where you build your burger by choosing the meat, bun, cheese, free toppings, and extra toppings. They have a really good selection. I went with a single beef patty on a white bun with American cheese, pickles, raw jalapeños, tomatoes, green chiles, banana peppers, and a large fry. We turned in our order sleeves at the counter and ordered fountain drinks. When we mentioned it was our first visit, the staff gave us a very warm welcome. The young lady behind the counter explained a little about the place and how the ordering process worked, which was much appreciated. The burgers are made to order, so we waited about 10-15 minutes. Honestly, that worked out perfectly because indoor seating is limited, and during the wait we were able to grab a table. They also have outdoor seating, though it was raining when we visited. When the burgers came out, they looked amazing. I'd describe them as a cross between a smash burger and a traditional patty, and I really liked that. My burger was delicious, juicy, flavorful, and messy in the best possible way. The large fries came in the usual paper sleeve, but it was absolutely overflowing, and the fries were hot, fresh, cooked to order, and excellent. This was honestly one of the best burgers I've ever had. Great food, friendly staff, cool atmosphere, and a local feel that big chains just can't touch. Skip the lame McDonald's or Burger King run and go somewhere that makes an actual great burger. Bob's Atomic Burgers is absolutely worth the visit. read more

I'm someone that really likes interesting burger toppings, so the menu here didn't look all that exciting. Eventually the amazing reviews pulled me in though and they're right. My husband and I shared a burger and chicken sandwich. Both were fantastic. We got the special for the burger which had pepperoni and buffalo sauce which was a fun combination. Other than the special, the menu is build your own with standard toppings. They're so good though you don't need fancy toppings. read more

Cooper Fisher: Alright, I went in expecting a lot, and Bob delivered. I started off with my vanilla shake and it was the best ice cream i'd had in my life (and boy do I know ice cream; I eat it all the time! ) It didn't take long for my food to come out. I got a cheeseburger with pepper jack and fries, and it was absolutely delicious. the burger was perfect, and the friess were golden and crispy. 10/10 deliciousness Springsteen read more

Bob's Atomic Burgers - Idk - Burgers Near Me - Golden, Colorado

YUM! Our uber driver, who was a local, drove by this spot on our way out of Golden... He pointed it out and said he drives 25-30 minutes out of his way to get a burger here... Naturally, we had to stop in for lunch the following day. He was not wrong! The wait staff was kind, we both ordered burgers with sweet potato fries and onion rings. The burgers were insane (good) and they loaded us up with sides of fries and rings - we had to take some to go. Very lowkey spot - we dressed in running shorts and tshirts and sat outside, looking at the Coors brewery and they bring your food right to your table. Overall, great experience and will definitely be back here! read more

You gotta try. Fun Street art, and stickers, and license plates everywhere. Grab an empty burger "sleeve" and pick your burger type. Pay at register. Sit and wait. You get a receipt with a movie related name. They call out your "name" and deliver that "sleeve" to your table with your burger in it. Voted best burger the past 2 years. Sit inside or out. read more

I forgot to take a picture but that burger was 10/10, the fries were bomb. I got the veggie burger, it was so flavorful and I love that it was slightly crispy on the edges. Most places usually suck at veggie burgers but not here! I can't wait to come back again read more

This place is a hidden treasure! The burgers are huge! All burgers are custom made. It is a order at the counter and then they will bring it to your table. You can eat inside or they do have outdoor seating during the summer. There's a parking lot not too far away if you don't mind paying for parking. Very tasty. read more

The line out the door told me all I needed to know about this place. It's a simple, old school burger joint. The menu isn't extensive but what they do, they do it right. Seating indoors is limited but there's ample patio space to enjoy the scenery. After the lengthy wait to place our order, the food arrived shortly after and it was absolutely worth the wait. The four of us ordered fries and onion rings to share at the table and we all left satisfied. This place is a must stop if you enjoy a good burger. read more

Bob's Atomic Burgers is an interesting and unique little burger joint with solid food. We dined in after a nearby hike. We ordered the daily special burger, a regular burger, onion rings and a kids lettuce wrapped burger. My daughter has a dairy allergy and good thing the lady at the counter checked the ingredients of the bun because it contains milk. It's a small and funky little spot serving solid food. read more

Delicious! I liked that they had a whole wheat bun. The ordering process where you write on the burger wrapper worked great.

From outside, this place does NOT look like somewhere that would have good food. My friend who lives in the Denver area suggested it and I was a little hesitant. When we got there, it was very busy with all the outdoor seating taken and a line out the door. Before getting to the cashier, you fill out a sleeve depending on what you want (burger, hot dog, or chicken sandwich). I got a burger, so I had to mark off what bun, toppings, and extras I wanted. At the cashier, you give them your sleeve and order any sides or drinks that you want. They then give you a random name for your order (I got Leatherface). When the order is done, they announce the funny name and bring the food to you. The burger was juicy and filling. I also shared fries and onion rings, which were both good as well. The fries were on the salty side, which I do like. Outside the restaurant has a view of the mountains and the Coors factory. Great price point and great food... can't beat that! read more

The process to order takes a lot longer than it should. Despite them having you fill out a form, there's several options left off of that form like drinks and sides. This slows it down significantly. The burger itself is nothing to write home about. It was about as dry as the Mojave Desert. I gave it two stars because the fries were hot and toasty. They should call this place Bobs Dry Mediocre Burgers. read more

Bob's Atomic Burgers is always packed. There's always a line. Random movie stars, fictional characters and historical figures are bellowed throughout the small digs. IYKYK. Why would people wait? Why does anyone wait? The wait is worth it. Bob's prides themselves on simple ingredients, cooked to order every time, and nothing prepped in a hurry. Your patience will pay off. And no, you won't be waiting any longer than you would anywhere else. My burger was huge. That's my fault, though, as I choose more than a few yummy toppings. I could barely hold it in my hand. I also had a strawberry milkshake and loved the over the top creaminess. I left distended and smiling, haha. We love Bob's. We've never left disappointed. That says a lot all by itself. Def check them out. Simple food but amazingly good food. read more

Bob's Atomic Burgers - Hamburger, Onion Strings, French Fries - Burgers Near Me - Golden, Colorado

Bob's burgers is popular. Parking sucks. Expect to wait to place an order, sit down (or to go), and get food. Probably a good 20 minutes from start to finish. You get a sleeve/paper and you design your burger (or hot dog) to your liking with buns, protein, toppings etc + add fries or something else if you'd like. Burgers are about $10 and go up depending on how many toppings you get. Turn in your sleeve for the food at the cashier and sit down and wait for the food. It's cute, you'll understand. Burger was good but, I realized it had no sauce on it (no ketchup or mustard etc, so have to add it yourself) read more

Super divey with a view. The smell outside brings you in from a mile away. They have a little something for everyone. You fill out your order on the bag and bring it to the cashier. The wait was short and you can sit outside looking at Coors if you can grab a seat inside if you can. read more

Overall good vibes, good food, and good views! We were actually recommended we got check out bob's by an employee at coors after the tour. We are so glad we took the recommendation! You walk in and there are sleeves for your burger and you pick how you want to customize it and it has prices on it so you know exactly how much you are paying. Once you are done customizing you go to the cashier had them the burger sleeve and they give you a name of a famous person (not sure if it was only that day they might switch it up). We got the special of the day which had an avocado crema and bacon. Overall good burger very soft bun good meat patty my only complaint with the burger we got was that the crema was not as packed in, I personally like my burgers saucey. They do have a condiments station so I ended up just putting some ketchup on places with no sauce. Sweet potato fries were perfect! Overall though, would highly recommend. ( I think it's better than in-n-out- but that might just be me). read more

Bob's Atomic Burgers - the special of the day and sweet potato fries - Burgers Near Me - Golden, Colorado

I've been meaning to try this place for years, so when it was my hamburger obsessed teenagers birthday, I knew we had to finally head here, and I'm so glad we did. We got there around 6:15 on a Friday night, there was a line already and tables were packed, but they are a well oiled machine and between the line, ordering, and waiting for our food, it was only a out 30 mins total. All of the employees seemed relaxed and happy to be there. Always a good sign. Biggest challenge was finding a table. The inside is rather small. Loved the punk rock vibe though. NOFX We ordered a double, a regular cheeseburger with bacon, a fries chicken sandwich, and onion rings. Everything was sooo good. My teen was so impressed and said it was the best burger he's ever had. The chicken sandwich was super juicy, you could squeeze it and see the juice. And the onion rings... perfect light breading and cook. We'll definitely be back. read more

Bob's Atomic Burgers - Onion rings, sweet potato fries, and BIG burgers! - Burgers Near Me - Golden, Colorado

For those who don't know me, I love a great burger and consider myself a "burger freak" (burger connoisseur is too pompous - especially when you don't care about how fancy a place is). In my quest to find great burgers, two of my top 5 burger places are in Golden, CO. I first tried Bob's Atomic Burgers about five years ago and have been numerous times when visiting my son in Colorado. This place could best be described as a "burger joint'". There's nothing fancy about it. You order at the counter and wait for your food - no delivery to your table. It's a very basic, rustic kind of place. The menu is pretty limited - m this is primarily a burger place. If you love burgers, don't miss Bob's. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. read more

Ever have a burger craving hit and just need to scratch that itch? That is was happened to me and my search for a burger joint brought me here. Oh baby! I was very happy to find this spot - plus they had classic onion rings! Yum. I was in burger heaven. The place was busy and seemed to be popular with the college crowd so we were lucky to score a table and sat patiently while we waited. It's a bummer they don't sell alcohol, because a burger is better with a beer, but I lived. Funky little place worth checking out. Ordering system is unique but easy to figure out (my assigned name was "professor") read more

Stopped in Golden, CO while doing a bit of a drive with colleagues from Italy. Everyone felt like a burger for lunch so found this spot. It's definitely a local charmer and although it doesn't look much on the outside, it's what's on the inside that counts - and their burgers definitely deliver on taste and size. I think these are the biggest burgers I have ever eaten! And everyone agreed that they were awesome. If you're in Golden, go get one! Fabulous! read more

This is easily one of the top hamburger spots in town. The beef patties are consistently juicy and flavorful, complemented by perfectly melted cheese. What truly elevates the experience is the outstanding customer service--the cashier and servers are friendly, attentive, and create a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended for both quality food and excellent service. They ground beef every morning for all their beef patties! read more

Perfect simple burger. No fancy options, but not needed here. And fries were great too. Fun experience with the name tags they give you to call you when your order is ready. Limited seating. read more

The burgers and sides were very good, and the food itself was worth the visit. However, the service at the register really slowed things down. The cashier spent a lot of time making conversation and asking every customer multiple questions, even with a line out the door. Friendly service is appreciated, but when there's a long line, moving customers through efficiently should be the priority. Between waiting in line and waiting for our food, the entire visit took about an hour. With a few improvements to the ordering process, this place could be a much better experience. read more

More of a 3 1/2 stars but might be due to my order. They had good onion rings. All sauces were just Heinz products. I tried creating a burger like habit (lettuce, tomato, pickles, onion) and taste fine. Single patty is plenty big. Taste like a backyard grill burger but not overcooked. Might need to try a different kind of burger next time. I would consider going back read more

I used to love this place but lately the quality of their burger meat has gone down hill. Staff is always awesome

Incredible food and staff. From the burger options to the chicken everything is always top quality and fun friendly staff. Love this place and go back often over and never disappointed. Leave looking forward going back. Definitely a find you will want to return to again and again read more

Solid concept. Burgers are awesome. Staff is friendly. Ambiance is vibing. I enjoy a burger from here once a week. Great little place.

Is it the best burger ever? I can't answer that, but I can tell you it's my favorite in Colorado and a must stop when I'm in the area. I usually get the same - double burger, American, pickles, fried egg, raw onion, and (this is key) - FRESH jalapeños. Yeah. That's what I'm talking about. What comes to the table is a glorious mess of a burger that is primal and always satisfies. I'm assuming they have a passing health food score but I'm afraid to look. The floor is always weirdly slippery and there are more flies than on Diddy's dead career. I don't care. When I want sloppy satisfaction, Bob delivers. read more
