    What an eclectic combination of themes and great food here! This restaurant has been on Sanibel for decades, and even survived Hurricane Ian (although major renovations were necessary). It's got a 50s diner, old town vibe to it. Burgers, milkshakes, floats, and giant sodas. The food was delicious and plentiful, and the staff were quite friendly and each we talked to had been long-time employees. That says something about a business. If you ever find yourself on Sanibel Island this is a must stop for lunch or early dinner (this and most restaurants on the island close early, even on the weekends)

    Wow!! Stopped here after our beach day on Captiva because we were drawn in by the name "cheeburger cheeburger." What does it mean? I still don't know! Anyways, after parking in the spacious strip mall lot, we were greeted by clean retro decor, the kind you want to see in a place known for its burgers and shakes. Our waitress, Pamela, was very informative. She helped guide our decision making on sauces and what servings to get of the fries. A single is good for 2 people! I ordered a classic burger with American cheese, tomato, lettuce, and the signature burger sauce. I thought it was really good! I also had the brownie batter milkshake, also great. The sweet potato fries were even better, especially dipped in the signature burger sauce. The food came out quick, the portions were great, and the proved even better. Everyone was happy with the meal! We even got some entertainment when some patrons nearby embarked on the cheeseburger challenge, but we did not stay long enough to see if they succeeded. But I was rooting for them!

    Nice place to stop by to enjoy a burger and fries. The shakes looked amazing but didn't try one. The Blackened Grouper sandwich was tasty. Very cool decoration to look at. Our server was excellent and quick.

    You know I've been coming to this island for years and never stopped by here. Finally had a chance . I sat at the bar just ordered a beer, a burger and some french fries and I was pleasantly surprised. Cheeseburger cheeseburger for the win !

    Was stuck in Marriott Sanibel. Was highly recommended to visit Cheeburger Cheeburger. Learned from my uber driver (only way to reach it) that it was based off an old SNL skit. Restaurant was big but empty on a Tuesday evening. The decorations were new but retro. Their half cut ancient red car really popped. Sat on the counter and ordered an island burger and cheesecake shake. The burger was basic. Didn't taste much flavor or any twist that wouldn't make it forgettable. The shake tasted more like a watered down Oreo. Overall average experience.

    We are happy to share that yesterday's visit was back to the good ole Cheeburger we love. Service was good. Food was decently quick, hot & delicious. So glad they worked through the issues we had at Christmas.

    Cool atmosphere going back to the 60s. Skip this place if you want a juicy hambburger. Well well done only. I don't understand why a place that specializes in serving hamburgers does that. Service was so..so.

    Cheeburger is located on Sanibel Island and has been a staple in our family for years. They have changed location over the past few years and we have been coming here since their original location on the island. Last year when the hurricane came through, luckily they did not get much damage but they went ahead and remodeled. I would love to say that they have since improved but sadly this was not the case. As I said, we have been coming for years but it might be put on hold for a bit. Their remodel has now included a bar area when you first come in. It is actually really pretty, big bar with stools, TVs and fully stocked. It is very much needed on busy nights or just to stop in for a drink. They also redid the floors and the décor in the restaurant. It feels very bright and open now. I really do like the new design. We had a party of 5, and luckily came at the right time and only had to wait about 10 minutes. The server was literally the best part of the experience. Pam was by far phenomenal and honestly the only reason this is a 3 and not a 1. The service was incredibly slow, we waited almost an hour for our food, we just ordered burgers and a fry basket to share. When the food finally came out, my mom's burger was missing. At this point we were so over the meal, she just asked to have it taken off the menu and shared a burger with my sister. Pam told us that there were new cooks in the kitchen and again was incredibly apologetic about the wait, we did not blame her, but it was still way to long to wait for hamburgers. For food, we ordered, the fried pickles. These also took forever, and we eventually asked Pam to go and grab them. We were all very hungry and starting to feel sick almost. They did come out extremely hot and they were very good. We had never ordered an appetizer here but these were delicious. For entrees, we all order a burger or cheeseburger. We all had different toppings on them, and different cheese. In the past, you were able to choose your bun, and they had about 30 toppings to choose from. They have changed their menu and reduced this a lot. There were only a handful of toppings and only one style of bun. I did miss this part and preferred the old menu. The burgers were just ok. They were all misshaped, some more round and some more flat. They were all supposed to be the same size, but it was just not consistent. They were also extremely greasy. We were very confused as to why a burger was so incredibly greasy. We all commented that we never had a burger which was just incredibly full of grease. We also ordered a basket of their fries. Their fries are always good and just complement their burgers. Overall, I am not sure if this will be a yearly visit moving forward. They are just so classic in our books but it seems they need to get some staffing correct before we will go back. The service was spot on but the kitchen crew needed help. They sent out one table at a time and literally sent the table out about 1-15 minutes apart. For a place that just sells mostly burgers, its what they are known for and in their name, they should be busting them out. Throw a ton of burgers down, the restaurant was fully packed. I really could not figure out what the issue was, but they need to get it together.

    Awesome milkshake

    Quickly greeted and seated. Our waitress was quick to our table. Very friendly. My wife and I split their famous cheese burger. It was delicious. I also got a peanut butter shake and it was awesome as well. Tasted homemade and old fashion. My wife and I loved the fries. This restaurant has a great old fashioned feel. Definitely a neat place.

    Recently my wife and the of the family had an early dinner at Cheeburger Cheeburger, located on Sanibel Island. We haven't been here in two years, so we were looking forward to returning. Cheeburger Cheeburger is a family -friendly restaurant, serving build your-own burgers, salads & shakes, in a vintage 1950s setting. Once we arrived and checked in with the hostess, we waited about 10 minutes. As we were waiting I noticed that they did some remodeling. They now offer a full bar, which wasn't something they offered two years ago. After we were seated our served came and greeted us warmly. Our servers name was Pam. Since it's been two years we weren't ready to order yet, but all of us either ordered an unsweet iced tea or a water. Pam came back few minutes later and we were ready. To start with we decided to share an order of fried pickles and a basket of hand cut fries. -Entrees: * I ordered an the famous half pound burger ( 8 oz), for toppings I decided on getting pepper jack cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, sautéed mushrooms* My wife got the classic burger (6 oz) for toppings she got cheddar cheese, bacon, lettuce, pickles, tomato* My father-in-law order a classic burger, no cheese, lettuce, tomato and pickles* mother-in-law and sister-in-law order a classic burger, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles. After we placed our orders, the wait began. The restaurant was pre busy when we at down at our table, and noticed a lot of tables were waiting on food. So we kinda knew it would take a little bit to get our burgers. 15 to 20 minutes passed by and we haven't received our fried pickles. Our server Pam had been helping serve drinks at the bar during this time. She did make her rounds and came to our table and saw that we haven't gotten our appetizer. Pam was apologetic, absolutely wonderful. She explained that the cooks were new and trying to get a handle on things. She said it's no excuses at all, but that's why we and essentially everyone had been experiencing this. I felt bad for Pam and all the servers. 10 mins later Pam came with our fried pickles. The pickles were hot, nicely salted and had a nice crunch. After another 25/ 30 minutes, the burgers and fries came to the table. All looked good until we noticed my mother-in-laws order wasn't made..... Pam came to check on us and before we could mention it she noticed her order was missing . She once again was absolutely nice and apologized profusely. We asked Pam to tell them not to bother bringing it. We cut our burgers in half and just shared everything. Pam came back and said she would take of several things from our bill. I thought that was nice of her. The burgers were ok at best... Definitely had a little more grease than we were use to, having eaten here before. The fries were also just ok... could've been warmer and seasoned a little more. All in all Pam was the best part of our dinner. Couldn't have asked for a better server. She was in an unfortunate position. Non of this was a servers fault but she handled this like a champion. Thank you so much Pam.

    Giant gumball machine... you will need a cup to catch how many come out!

    Burgers are thick and juicy, shakes and malts a great addition and they also have fun kid meal options, including add on shakes/malts and a fun classic car box. No wait time when we were there, staff were pleasant, great experience. We always make sure to stop here when visiting!

    I'll start by saying that I rarely eat at Subway, due to past mediocre experiences, they either ran…read moreout of things, or the ingredients aren't as good as they should be. Too much of a factory line for me. Last time we ate at a Sunway it was also on an island. When you're stuck pretty much, need to grab a bite during a break from exploring and don't want to waste time with a seat down meal. We got 6 inches sub, my husband went for the Italian BMT, I tried the Rotisserie style chicken with garlic aioli.They didn't have anu sandwich with avocado at this location or avocados period. Communication between us and staff was very poor, language barrier (I am not a native English speaker either, but..), not listening, rushing you for not good reason. I was trying to get simple and be easy going, not overload anyone, not change the ingredients or add too many things. The sandwiches were just OK, bread was breaking on top of mine making it harder to eat. We also got some lemonades. They have no seating inside, small location. We were interested in an outdoor area, it is a small area with some stools in front. We were in a rush, so it worked. But Subway still didn't convince me. Next time we'll be on an island... maybe try something else.

    Good Subway fare...Friendly Owner/Manager....Make their sandwiches with love!…read moreWe were there on a Monday afternoon after visiting the National Wildlife Refuge nearby on Sanibel Island. The person behind the counter (not sure may be the Owner/Manager) was very friendly. Greeted all customers personally, some in foreign languages like Italian. Many seem to be locals that knew these folks. Anyway we ordered a couple of sandwiches. They made all of these with great love. There's not a lot of seating inside the subway but no worries. This is in a very nice parking lot with lots of trees and shade. So sitting in the car and having your lunch is just as good here! We will be back!!

    Amazed at how well progress has been made here since the hurricane almost 3 years ago. So worth the…read moretrip of season that is.. The atmosphere alone is worth the trip, it will blow your mind. The service is adorable with their "bubble Scouts "giving you some history of the building and the number of floors to view once your meal is done.. so beautiful so nostalgic so fun a trip back in time. I had the McTirk ( named after Kirk Douglas and Steve, McQueen), a delicious turkey, provolone, bacon, pepper, jelly, basil, mayo, deliciousness wrap. Holy heck, it was so good!! Head on the road early so you're here right when they open up.. the traffic getting on the island can be overwhelmingly, slow, and even standing still.

    Been coming here for over 30 years and it's always been outstanding…read more We were in fortmyers for a celebration of life so we stayed an extra day to come here it's a bit of a drive but usually worth it. The food was still amazing and the place looks the same with minor changes since the storm. The disappointment here is the front end. They hired a very childish boy as a hostess. Flamey and rude. Very dramatic and rather than trying to help people ( such as locating a restroom) he spews a very long story about where it is instead of pointing to it two feet away. He was talking and laughing about a customer when I came out. I presume me I only needed to wash my hands. He's lucky I didn't tell him off but I didn't want to let him ruin our evening and have my husband hear. He's ( Anthony) a little punk though.
