I have been looking for a good burger in Wicker Park that doesn't cost 20+ dollars. Even some of the 15 dollars ones are just garbage. I have probably tried about 20 different places already in the area. I took a different route into work today because of traffic and i saw this place. Looked interesting and unique. Had I ran across my diamond in the rough? I looked up reviews and read about this "choppak" thing. and I'm thinking 8-9 bucks for a double burger fries and slaw? Could it be a tasty burger too? Went here for lunch at 12:30 today, easy parking in small lot, the worker there going back in the door held it open for me, nice touch. Guy at the counter was polite, place was clean all around, I ordered the "choppak" with everything and regular strawberry milkshake. Get this! I was only 13 bucks after tax! Woot Woot! Got it to go and on the way out the door I decided I would eat in my car (just couldn't wait to get back to the office). Opened it up and the burger looked amazing. Two good sized patties, yummy grilled onions, tomatoes and everything else that make a good burger, the buns are even a notch up from cheap hamburger buns. Fries were hot and good, nothing super special, but not bad in any way. Same story for the cole slaw. ok, just standard cole slaw. Strawberry shake was also TOP NOTCH, too thick for the straw until it melted a bit and I do like that in the bottom of my cup were 3-4 big chunks of real strawberries. Great Job Choppers!!! Also, I don't recommend eating these in your car, buy the time I was done the front of my shirt was a mess, lol.. I have found my local go to burger joint. I will definitely be back. Thank you! read more

Man they tricked me with English style fish and chips lol disgusting it was 3 cheap thin fish fillet Patty's , hot coleslaw and hot tarter sauce definitely won't buy again , I'll try their burger if I go back read more

I really wanted to check out choppers one day. I always walked by this super casual burger and fries shop. It reminds me of a trendy fast food joint from the early 90s. The food was what I expected, processed goodness. Ha. I really enjoyed the fried mushrooms. The restaurant forgot to put cheese on my burger so I wasn't able to enjoy it as much as I wanted, but I'm sure it would have tasted better with it. I tried to slab all that cheese from my cheese fries on there to compensate. The fries could have been a little less drenched in cheese but they were good. I'd come back to get the fried mushrooms and try another item. read more

Choppers - cars parked in front of a burger king restaurant - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Food is delicious, made fresh and service was even better! My family happened upon Choppers in our search for fast food on our drive back home to Indiana. We didn't want the normal "chain" restaurants. Most of the exits were closed at the time, but somehow I found Choppers on my gps and hallelujah the exit was open. I walked in and explained the situation to the man who took my order and he was so nice! Since we had never been there before and we were going to eat in the car, he guided me to best choices for the kids. He was patient, helpful and generous-- as he gave me a free shake after ordering the wrong Flavor for my daughter! it is a classic small town service! would definitely recommend going out of your way to stop there if you are in Chicago! read more

Yes this restaurant has been around for many years and there food is still Good and Tasty. You do get your money's worth for the size and quantity. Here is a sandwich I know many have tried but I will always recommend. The Italian Beef Combo Soggy Dipped for me but OMG! Can't go wrong, seasoned beef and the juice Oh My. A Forever Winner for me. Go get you one. read more

Choppers - The Chop Pak - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The quad burger was okay. I can taste that chard flavor, but it lacked flavor for me it reminded me of a Grammer school cheeseburger. The fries definitely didn't do it for me. I tasted no seasoning in the fries, not even salt. Starry soda is not Sprite. They informed me it was Sprite, but I know instantly that it was starry the moment I drank it. The fries and burger was not for me read more

We've been going to Choppers for years their Grilled Chicken Sandwich is my favorite but their meatball sandwich is great as well. I drove from the suburbs here just to eat, burgers are good.Hubby loves the coleslaw & the shakes are delicious. read more

The food was delicious but the employee wouldn't use his face mask properly. Pros: Food was delicious. Burger had a good overall consistency that comes with fresh food. Shakes were unexpectedly good, even long after we left them sitting out. Cons: Employee was being inconsiderate of our safety by not properly wearing their face mask. In this time of delivery or get-it-and-go, brief interactions become quite important. The gentlemen preparing my order had their face mask over their chin. While I appreciate being asked if I needed anything else, I prefer for others to demonstrate consideration by properly wearing a facial covering. He kept expecting me to walk up to him for my order, I signaled to the gentlemen that they should have a covering over their mouth and nose. But they just walked away. I loved the food but I can't go back until everyone practices proper safety. read more

This place is fire - absolutely ridiculous. Ordered from this place 3-4 times in a row and let me tell you, if I lived here, I would be ordering much more often than that. Portions are unexpectedly large, and prices are ridiculously cheap. For example, tell me one place that sells a burger with FIVE patties for approximately $8. Where? Where can you find that price in 2020? Hell, where could you find that price in 2015? Whatever they're doing, I hope they keep it up, because this place is balling. Friendly tip, their sausage sandwiches are legit. Highly recommend the doubles sausage. Also, their delivery time is unbelievably fast. read more

I have to give Chopper's a little shout out. This is not white tablecloth dining obviously; this is the classic Chicago fast casual spot, with burgers, dawgs, beefs & shakes. But they certainly do the best they can with what they're serving; the fries are always hot, the bread is never stale, and the veggies are always fresh. I was particularly impressed when I went nuclear and ordered a loaded Chicago hot dog for delivery... and asked for the sauces on the side. I didn't want a soggy dog, but I also didn't want to put on pants & leave the house to pick up a hot dog. Needless to say, Chopper's had my back. They packaged EVERYTHING - the pickle, the onions, the sport peppers, the relish, even for the love of God - the celery salt, in separate containers! My roommate said I'd cost them more than what the order was worth in portion cups... and I did feel a little guilty for their labor. They went so far above and beyond and I got a delish delivery hot dog, which is like waking up with a baby unicorn in your bed! Thanks Chopper's, appreciate your hard work and will be a loyal customer! read more

Had the chopak and a beef. Honestly it wasn't anything special to rave about. It's more a 2.5 but I have it a 3. Just nothing to brag about.

I will salute the staff at CHOPPERS for their dedicated service to the public with Delivery and Pick up services they provide during this World wide Pandemic .. I placed an order online 1 day ahead and picked up the same day I placed not knowing I made the mistake The staff at CHOPPERS quickly fixed as fast as 123 - Worked out so smooth THANK YOU From my 93 year old Mom - YOU MAKE THE MOST DELICIOUS BURGERS (you can quote her on that ) Good Job and you will always have business from me. read more

These burgers, fries and milkshakes are great. My husband and I stopped here for a quick bite. I have been eating these since my days working at GrubHub, when they use to order them. The burgers are juicy and flavorful, the milkshakes are rich and delicious. We will definitely be back. read more

Choppers - Menu - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The food is amazing! Customer service is great, the guy at the register is always friendly! You gotta get the choppak with a shake!

Amazing staff awesome food period!!! Must have chop-pak for sure there's one reason why it's called choppers BURGERSSSS

Me and Choppers, my good ol' friend, go WAAAAY BACK. How far back you ask? I attended Johnathan Burr Elementary since pre K that is right across the street from..... you guessed it CHOPPERS! I graduated from Burr in 2007 and I still come back to this day. I grew up on the free smells piping out of this joint. THAT SWEET SWEET GREASE IN THE AIR during reese time was no joke - it'd make a vegan's stomach grumble haha. The food to me is the best. It's what I grew up on and has become the standard by which I judge fast food by. I'll be completely honest - the quality of the food at Choppers is not the best, the patties are frozen (not sure if they still are) for example BUT the difference is that they turn that shitty product into gold. That's the magic of Choppers, well that and the price is not that bad for the amount you are getting. Now, I'm not going to bore you and tell you how great it is because I'm clearly bias haha. Instead I will cap off my review with my favorite food hacks me and my buddies have developed over the years at our favorite hang out spot. Rule of thumb: Always eat your food at Choppers. If you go the to go route or delivery the food is going to be shitty. Cold Choppers fucking blows so don't do that to yourself. The food needs to be as hot as possible for it to taste as great as possible. Pro tip: Don't be a fucking jabroni - Get the CHOPAX! With a Chopax you get cole slaw and steak fries on the side. First fries, you can either dip them in the cole slaw or get sloppy and add cheese, chili, and sweet peppers. Now with the cole slaw, what I do is instead of dipping them in the fries I jam them into my burger - THAT SHIT IS FIRE!!!!!!!! Pro tip: Strawberry milkshake or GREEN RIVER "don't play yoself" Pro tip: The meatball sandwich (add sweet peppers and cheese). I have never, ever considered eating seafood here and you should do the same. I'm just saying lmfao read more

Choppers - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I'm so upset that I've been in Chicago for almost a year and I just became aware of this place (thanks to Yelp) this past week. Let me just say, this is the best greasy, cheesy goodness you can get for a fair price in Chicago. I ate the whole meal and it kept me full the rest of the day...I didn't eat again until the next day! The "Choppak" as they call it is a double cheeseburger, steak fries and some delicious cole slaw. This is my go-to for my once a week cheat meal. I will be back, next week! read more

Choppers - "Choppak" to-go - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

It pains me to leave this review as this was a usual go to. Haven't got a choppak in probably a year. But wtf choppers?? The quality dropped so much. The slaw is so nasty now with way too much oregano. What happened? Soggy lettuce. Both orders we had tonight for take out were wrong and taste horrible. Sadly won't be ordering anymore after having this be THE burger spot in the neighborhood for the last decade. read more

The chop packs used to be our favorite thing to get. The coleslaw was so good! Why did you change the recipe? It's awful! Who puts oregano in coleslaw? So gross. The burger was ok but you could've kept the wilted lettuce and most of the salt that you put on the fries. I have no issues with service, everyone was great as always. Choppers has been our goto for a good burger in ther neighborhood for many years. Change is the one thing in life that is constant but when it comes to food, if it works don't touch it. read more

I go to the beauty shop right near this restaurant and I always get a choppak meal. I'm not sure what their secret is, but the burgers, the fries and the coleslaw is delicious. There's nothing like it! If you're ever in the area you need to stop by and get choppack meal. And, say hello to the owner. His name is George! read more

The chop pack was amazing! If you go.... you NEED to get the shakes yuuuum!! Our son recommended this place, we are glad we took his recommendation. If your are in the area, stop by. You will nit be disappointed! read more

Stopped in for a quick cheeseburger and fries lunch. We ordered one quarter pounder and one Choppak special. "Everything" on a burger includes ketchup, mustard, thinly sliced tomato, pickles, lettuce and grilled onions. Enough mustard and grilled onions to actually taste them. Extra ketchup - and hot sauce - available at the counter. Burgers were char-grilled and juicy. Buns were not overly bready. Fries were thick and fresh. Mocha shake was more chocolate than mocha - but thick and delicious all the same. The cole slaw was disappointing to me - a creamy dressing and the cabbage was thin and limp. I only had two bites and tossed the rest. Inside seating is available in some small high top tables and then counters along the windows. Most of the floorspace that is not used for seating is taken up with those 25 cent machines offering assorted candies, temporary tattoos and my favorite - emoji sponge balls. Would I come back? Yes - if I was in the 'hood - but I wouldn't make a special trek. read more

Choppers - Choppak sandwich with a very thick mocha malt. - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The best food around. Institution for eve area. Coleslaw is the bomb! If you didn't know, now you know.

All you need to know is Choppak. The Good- the food is delish and they deliver! You must have a milkshake. It was 4℉ outside and I dont regret getting one haha. The shakes are DIY with mang flavors to choose from. I had- strawberry, banana & cherry and the hubby had- strawberry, blueberry & peanut butter. AMAZING!!!! The Bad- The cashier was a little too quick to get my order and messed it up. Since he happily fixed it, I won't take away a star. The Ugly- Parking!!! Ahhhh!!! It is absolutely terrible. I think a whole 6 spots in their little lot? Will still definitely be back! read more

YUCK ! no flavor old freezer burnt fat fries disgusting canned cheese I'm never going back..

Years ago I would get drunk, take a nap and go to work. I had perfected being hungover so I wouldn't hate life, but every now and then shots snuck into my life and left me swearing off drinking forever. Those days, I frequently found myself getting a Choppak either during lunch or as soon as I got off work. Yes, I knew I'd regret it later (not in a White Castle kind of regret, but the "oh I'm so full why did I eat that much?" kind of regret), but I'll be damned if this isn't great hangover food. Ok, ok, so I'll eat here not hungover.....but the Choppak is a lot of food and I actually don't crave greasy hamburgers often. I used to work down the street and every now and then my friend could convince me to make a run here during our break. One of my bosses would tell me how I'd hate life later and it'd run through me, but he never turned down the other half of my burger. That has to say something, right? I've only had a chocolate shake from here, but it's nice and thick and impossible to drink through a straw. In other words, it's my kind of shake. I tend to think the prices are a little much, which is why I rarely try anything else, but the Choppak is a solid deal and I still head here every now and then. Also, the guys working here are actually quite nice. I like "fast food" places with nice people, it's usually the deciding factor when choosing between a place with grumps. read more

I've been driving over to this place for a few years now. Yes the prices has changed but the Adult size happy meal has not. The burgers are still big with lots of cheese And still passing my test of being good and with good steak fries and some very good cold slaw. The chopped Pak is a full you upper So if you are in the area or not if you are in the mood for a good value meal. Then this is the place to checkout. Also the Milkshakes are so good you wont have to wonder why you get a spoon and straw. Kids love them Please note.. This place has a very small parking lot Calling in your order is a big help. read more

Super super random find while in Wicker Park today. Was dying for a shake and burger and found this little gem! VERY reasonably priced AND the food was delicious! Try the choppak (comes with double cheeseburger, fries and coke slaw). It also was prepared super fast- so hardly any waiting. Check it out - you won't be sorry! read more

It's 2 things you got to get when you go here. The Choppak and a milkshake. Anything else and you punishing yourself. The Choppak was awesome and huge. That thing alone can fill you up. But when you add in the fries and the coleslaw, its almost no way you eat another thing. I stopped in here for lunch for a quick bite and found myself later doing nothing but wanting to take a nap LOL. 4 words: CINNAMON APPLE PIE MILKSHAKE Got to try it. Delicious. Don't deny yourself of it. read more

Choppers - Choppak Meal = Double cheeseburger with fries and coleslaw. Not pictured: Cinnamon Apple Pie Shake - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

It's not that Choppers is "good", in the traditional sense. I come here because I want quality s***ty food, if that makes sense. Burgers are tasty, and yes, I've had the Quad Burger. Fries, great. Shakes, great. Chicken fingers? Solid. Prices are generally fair and you get a lot of food for a low price. There's parking and outdoor seating when it's warm. I hate the seats inside, but often, I get this food to go. Look, Choppers isn't gonna win any awards, and yes, the burger at Au Cheval is a little better than Choppers, lol. Otherwise, you are good to go for hot diner-like food at good prices!! read more

Thirty-sumn' years. I'm damned with myself that I'm Chicago born and raised now for just under thirty years and I just dragged my ass to Choppers this past weekend. Now I've never known anyone to actually talk about Choppers but everyone knows the place as I'm guilty of this too. I passed it up a week prior on my way to a Bulls game and made a mental note to stalk their Yelp page. Upon carrying out that task I learned of the Choppak. You know a burger will be a burger, but the Choppak is put together well for the price and portion. $5.95 gets you a huge double with all the trimmings. Choppers gets extra love for automatic grilled onions. I added bacon but it wasn't a show stealer since I would've liked it the same without the extra. Definitely liked the touch of steak fries and the cole slaw was good. I don't necessarily think I would order anything else from Choppers except for the burger and some sides cause why mess with a good thing. In one visit they have a return customer now. For fun and competition they have a quad burger. I will own one of those real soon. And c'mon Chops you might as well include at least a small drink in the price. That's just lazy and annoying. Might as well loss lead it the right way cause I'd be more willing to buy a couple extra sides if it was altogether. There's some method to my madness... but just some. read more

I've passed by this place for years, wondering to myself "what's a choppak"? Finally my husband had enough of my ignorance and we came by. I had the Choppak (a double cheeseburger, coleslaw, and fries), and I added bacon. We also tried the fried mushrooms. Everything was fantastic. I really enjoyed the fries, especially. read more

Today was my first time here after passing by many times. Now I'm kicking myself for not going sooner. The Choppak was delicious! The give you a very generous portion of French fries which are excellent. Thick steak fries. And the coleslaw is AMAZING! Will definitely be back soon. read more

We were out doing errands and got hungry, so we stopped in for the first time. Small diner atmosphere. Good sized menu and generous portions. I got the Benny Burger, a triple meat burger with lots of cheese and gf got the Chop Pak which is a double burger with steak fries and cole slaw. She couldn't finish half of it and we split the sides. The burgers also have a slight crisp due to burning at the edges. I liked it, but made the burger seem more salty than it should. Also ordered a chocolate shake, but we got an Oreo shake. Not sure if that's what they considered chocolate, was still very good, just not what I ordered or expected. LOTS of food for under $20. NOT a lot of parking at this place. Awkward placement of spaces makes getting in and out difficult, especially when other customers park crooked in their car and are just sitting there eating and watching you try to back out without hitting them. Not the establishment's fault though. read more

Choppers - The Benny Burger - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Choppers is disgustingly awesome. I've ordered Choppers several times for delivery on a Sunday afternoon. I was originally looking for a place that delivered Italian beef and that is how I found this place. There menu is plentiful with many things to choose from. If you are a little hungover and want to feel even worse about yourself then order some Choppers online. The times that I've order from here I got the Italian beef with messy cheese fries and the gravy bread. Talk about a hating yourself. This food is so greasy and loaded with fat you won't want to move the rest of the afternoon. If you want you're friends and family to despise you then certainly put Choppers on your speed dial. read more
