Fantastic, unassuming spot for some burgers after a dip in the creek or a long hike in the Smokeys. Warning though, late lunch 2-3pm, gets busy with a long line, but it seems like the service and orders are efficient. Fries were crispy and hot, and the cheese burger was filling. I really liked their brioche buns for their burgers. The orange creamsicle milkshake was easy subbed in for their meal deal - light on the orange flavor, but still a good milkshake. read more

Great burgers hot dogs and fries! My wife and I loved it! I also love the vibes of having the tube place right next to it, definitely going to return and tube the river! Great service and beautiful views! read more

The double cheeseburger was fantastic. They could change their name to Fries Master and it be just as correct. Will certainly come back.

Had just gotten done Tubing with River Rat Outpost A and this place was a Godsend! Laying in the sun for a few hours, we worked up an appetite! Walked right up to the window, there wasn't a long line thankfully when we drove up! We ordered 2 Smoky Burgers, one as a meal and one just the burger! For the Smoky Burger meal they allowed a milkshake for the drink - she got a Oreo Milkshake and onion rings (the staff member said she loved the onion rings) The Flurry I ordered was amazing, I didn't think I could finish it all because it was DECENTLY sized I was very surprised. But it was amazing! They also serve soft serve ice cream if that's more your style! This place is located conveniently near River Rat Outpost A. I will note that the bathrooms are also shared with River Rat. Seating is outdoors, there are benches and high top tables. The table style is covered, while some benches have umbrellas. I am 1000% coming back. This will be my new favorite stop before heading home from the Smokey Mountains! This was perfect because we didn't want a fast food chain, but this was supporting local and it was affordable and fast! Try this place out! read more

There was a pretty long line that looked like an amusement park ride line when we pulled up. There is a sign that says you can order online and skip the line but I did not see what website we could order on to do that so my husband hopped in line. The wait wasn't terrible for how long it originally appeared to be, but that was just to order. Since we had already eaten we only ordered flurries. My husband got a banana Oreo flavored one, while I got Heath. It was very good. I don't know if it is better than some other ice cream places but it was tasty and hit the spot. read more

My family and I stumbled across this nostalgic burger shop after we floated down the river. It was the perfect stop after we had been in the heat all day, I got a burger with fries and a Reeces shake. It was so refreshing! The fries were super crispy, which was a great surprise. The burger is your average burger, but the patty was very juicy- not dry! I can see the wait time being a bit longer on the weekends, since you stand in line to order. But the food came out super fast! They also asked if I wanted my ice cream first or if I wanted it with my meal. There are seats around the side of the building that are shaded, but everything is outdoors. Plenty of parking spots as well. I can't wait to go back on our next vacation! read more

Food was ok. The outside seating was really nice. Not very crowded when we arrived, but quickly filled up after we sat down!! We will try it again next time we are in the area! read more

We stopped here for lunch. I'm not sure what they are doing differently than last year but these burgers were amazing. Last year they were ok. We bought two cheeseburger meals and really enjoyed our food. The burgers were cooked perfectly and had amazing flavor. The staff are amazing and friendly. It was a nice spring day out so it was wonderful sitting in the warm sun with some delicious food. read more

Amazing stop on our trip over to Cades Cove today and we lucked out and they were open. The place was jumping! The food was amazing. There was a line but we got our order in and food came out fast, hot and most of all correct. The burgers are big, hot and juicy. They have a burger, fries and a drink for $11.99!!! A lot of folks were getting ice cream we didn't get any only because we were full. We're staying in Pigeon Forge but would definitely consider the short drive it Townsend. They have tables and a covered area if it's bad weather or need more shade than the umbrellas. Do yourself a favor and don't pass by and not stop! Check the hours before heading there. read more

My grandson and I ate lunch here before tubing the river. They have a fairly simple menu, prices are reasonable (not much competition in Townsend), dining is outside on nice picnic tables with umbrellas. The ordering method is an order window and pickup windows. Things seem to move along considering the long line. At had a special, The Caroline burger, which added chili and slaw. My grandson had a cheeseburger and fries. Everything was fresh and tasty. Drinks were self serve. read more

We love the Burger Master Drive in, Townsend, TN! Not only great ice cream related items, but also great burgers and other sandwich items. The fries are great, but we love the onion rings. A fun place that should be visited when traveling through Townsend, TN. read more

Great burger joint in the valley! Solid burger and pretty efficient at getting your order knocked out. Best scenery.

Best place for soft serve! Generous portion. Came here as a kid for ice cream. Got to share that moment again as adults together, and share the experience again 30 years later. read more

Fast service & good food! We got burgers & fries but the onion rings looked really good too! We also got a pup cup & our dog gave 5/5 stars

Found the best burger in the smoky mountains area! Got the chili burger which was very good, and the fries were super crispy and well seasoned. The small ice cream cone is huge! Very quick and great place for lunch. read more

Great burger and fries at this place. It is not a drive in (nor drive thru). You walk up, order and pay, then your number is called to pick up. Plenty of tables when we visited. Paid $22 for two single burgers, one fry and one soda. Will return. read more

Been here a couple times. I don't think their burgers are the best, but I like their fries and enjoy the BLT. Service is always quick, it's one of the few places in Townsend that offers a fast meal. I wish they weren't open for such a short period of time during the year, but I understand why since all their seating is outside. Give it a try if you're in the area and want a quick meal before you go in the park. read more

Burgers were not fresh ground burgers. They were frozen burgers. The patty melt was grilled onions and a little cheese sauce, on Texas toast. No thousand island dressing that comes on other patty melts. If you want a basic burger this is it. This Is Not a fresh angus burger! read more

A beautiful outdoor drive-in burger joint in a beautiful area surrounded by mountains and mountains streams - the property's design reminds me of a mountain chateau or alpine ski resort. The location means the majority of the customers are tourists check out the local reviews it's all about ice cream and sugar plums that dance in their heads - I admit I didn't read any reviews before stopping in unfortunately - I mean look at the investment who could screw this up. The ordering process Is modern maybe too modern, this setting doesn't look like the kind of place you hand the customer a pager - spend the money and staff the place, it's a gold mine operating like a burger hut at the county fair except the food isn't as good. Okay - the food definitely not fit for repeat business the number of people that cycle through the area apparently justifies serving sub-par food. We ordered burgers and fries - frozen bland process meat patties, give me a break the food is terrible read the more recent reviews things have changed, this is how you operate a business when there is no passion and the end game is only about the money. One bite into the burger I knew it would be in the trash can before I was half done, the cold greasy fries were of equal value to me. This place was so disappointing that I decided to pass on the ice cream since this guy was already $30 into my pocket. I doubt you could find a more disappointing burger anywhere, the margins must be out of this world. I'm guessing here but I bet a teenager is managing the business while the owner is offsite is counting his money there is no way anyone here is proud of what this place is putting out but that's okay because repeat business is not a requirement - this place really has me wondering where the hell do you get pre-made burgers this bad I can't imagine this is a domestic product. At the end of the day this business model works, they got my money... read more

Really good Smoky Cheeseburger and cheese fries! Nice covered outdoor seating for a drizzly day. Staff was cheerful and friendly. Definitely worth a repeat! Thanks! read more

Good classic food but be prepared for a painfully slow ordering process. Once you get your order placed, things speed up considerably. We found it best to go early - ahead of the standard lunch or dinner hours. Burger Master is located right next to campgrounds and river rafting, so they do a brisk business from those venues. The burger was great. I thought the patty could have used a touch more seasoning (specifically salt) before cooking, but overall it was flavorful. You add your own condiments. Onion rings were amazing and the fries are thick cut seasoned. My husband ordered a cherry malt and loved it. My dipped cone was delicious though much larger than I expected. But it hit the spot after a day on foot in the park. read more

I love this place. Great burgers and service every time! It's a must-stop for us anytime we are in Townsend. Highly recommend!!

Stopped on the way to cades cove. Super quick and awesome atmosphere! Very delicious! Definitely recommend!

Soft serve ice cream! I have a weak spot for this stuff, perhaps because it's not as common as it used to be, or perhaps because it has that warm fuzzy glow of my childhood permanently attached to it. It has been many years since I've ordered a cone of chocolate soft serve and been handed a tall, delicious cone like this one. I couldn't have been happier on a hot summer day! read more
