All the burgers are wagyu beef, very big juicy burgers. I got the French onion burger which came with an au jus sauce. Personally I thought the sauce wasn't necessary but it was good. My husband got the whiskey burger and loved it. The tots were nothing special and needed some seasoning, the waffle fries however were very good. We came on a Wednesday night and it was easy to get a table. Drinks/food came in a timely manner. The overall ambiance is very comfortable.
Wow, a craft wagoo burger, with all the fixings AND my favorite: crispy Tater Tots for only $15! No reservations are necessary. A full liquor bar is available. And, a Happy hour extends to 6pm daily which offers ice-cold, $3.50 domestic brewski's.
Was looking for a place to eat with good reviews and came across Craft burger. I'm not a big burger person but my husband is. Arrived around 5:30 and we were seated immediately. The place was very busy which is always a good sign. The restaurant was warm and inviting. The waitress was quick to come over and take our order. The ordered 6 wings and a side salad. The wings were cooked to perfection and they were a nice size. Salad was fresh and the blue cheese dressing was definitely made in house. My husband had the aristocrat burger with tater tots. His burger was juicy and seasoned perfectly. The tots were hot and crispy. Overall the service and food were great!
I've taken out from Craft probably close to a dozen times. I have yet to dine in. Overall I have been satisfied with the operation after being a customer for over five years. Staff usually has my order prepared upon arrival leaving my house after putting in the order, so roughly 15 minutes. The staff has also has been friendly and remembers my order. I also want to mention they have a good bourbon selection. My order of a craft house build burger with waffle fries. They use quality Greg Norman Waygu beef. My only complaint is the fries do not heat up well and have been soggy. I haven't been back for a while, but a long overdue review for a strong business. Recommend!
Currently this is my favorite burger in Virginia Beach. If you want a quality burger, with the option size that a burger should be, Craft is your place. Perfectly cooked, seasoned patties, with all sorts of toppings/fixins whatever you might call them lol. My appetite is not around the world (literally) and I left there satisfied and that's saying something. Ambience is casual sports bar type. Adequate parking and it don't break the bank. The service was attentive and thorough and all of our food came out hot and ready to go. All in all it's one of the best burgers in this area, you can't go wrong with any one off the menu!
Don't even need to rate this place, everyone knows it's great. The burgers are great I build my own. The meat is good quality and you can taste it. The chili is phenomenal, recently I've been getting the wagyu chili hot dog and it's amazing. Some of the best sweet potato fries I've ever had, Mac and cheese is good too. I've got only great things to say, and I've been here more times than I can count.
We love Craft Burger Bar in Virginia Beach, and the wait staff is always so nice and attentive! I love the chicken sandwich and broccoli, and my favorite is the nachos - so yummy and so huge!! We will be back again and again and again :)
Came back for a semi-late dinner and was not disappointed! Ordered the nachos (warned that they were HUGE) and gleefully accepted the challenge! Loved the fresh avocados & plentiful jalapeño slices. Then topped off with a Lager and crispy Buffalo chicken wrap + tater tots. Always a great place for a meal!
Absolutely amazing service and the food was delicious. I had the nacho burger, side of broccoli, and a side of Mac and cheese. This burger was the best I've had in Virginia Beach so far and the service was incredible and attentive.
Located in a strip-mall with plenty of parking, right off main road for easy access. Greeted & seated right away by a friendly Hostess. Nice & clean dining area with a bar if dining alone or just wanting to catch a game on one of several TV's located throughout. Our waitress was friendly, patient and helped with the decision process. She brought our drinks quickly and they never went empty as she checked on us regularly. We went with a Wagyu Burger, just a basic classic style (nothing fancy) with cheese and lettuce, tomato, pickles - Condiments are on the table. We planned to share burger and an order of Wagyu Chilli Nachos. In hind-site, we would have been good with just one, but at same-time would have missed out My wife likes her burger well-done, I don't, but when sharing I compromise. Despite being well-done enough to keep the wife happy, it was the juiciest & most flavorful burger that I have had, Top 3 for sure. It was damn good !!! It came with waffle fries which were good, but mostly skipped as the burger along with the most amazing NACHOS that I have had since San Francisco. I cannot say enough to fully describe the things that I loved about the Wagyu Nachoes. Each layer was as delicious as the first, no plain nacho chips anywhere as the toppings were not just on top, but on each layer. Topped with 1/2 an Avocado and jalapeño peppers, cheese and more cheese, WAGYU CHILLI, each bite was just WOW. My biggest complaint is that we live over 3 hours away. I will be singing the praise of these Nachos for years to come. Please do not change a thing !!!
My daughter and I went to Craft Burger bar on a Friday evening after we were snowed in for a day. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and seated fairly quickly. The atmosphere is your typical Pub style restaurant. They could use a little upgrading the booth that we were seated at had tape on the seat so it is probably time to replace them. What did we order: We ordered the Fried Pimento Cheese & pickles for appetizer, for our main course we had the Black & Blue Wagyu and the Tijuana Burger. The first thing I will say about the food is that you have to try the fried pickles. The fried pickles were absolutely delicious, they were cut with the perfect amount of thickness and they were not salty, they were perfect. I do wish there was an option to just get fried pickles without the pimento cheese. The Pimento cheese was ok but to be honest we both only ate 1 and that was enough for us. I did make substitutions on the Black & Blue burger. I swapped the Sauteed onions for the fried onion straw and instead of the blue cheese sauce I had BBQ Sauce. The waitress originally recommended getting the blue cheese sauce on the side because she said it would be very blue cheese forward between the sauce and the added blue cheese crumbles. My burger was very flavorful and juicy. My daughter did not make any changes to her Tijuana which was topped with avocado, lettuce, tomato,onion and a green chili aioli. We both ordered 2 cocktails that were also very tasty and well-balance. I would definitely be going back to craft burger bar especially when I have a craving for fried pickles
It was our first time here, I tried to call ahead but there's no call ahead seating. When we got here there was a bit of a wait for a table, but zero wait at the bar, so we sat there. My husband wanted an IPA and the bartender let him taste 2 different IPAs--one was gluten free (which he said wasn't bad). We got the fried cheese curds as an appetizer and they were hot and fresh and the sauce had the right amount of spice. I had the Aristocrat (with some of the complimentary extras) and he had the Nacho. The waffle fries were fantastic. The burgers are a bit messy to eat but very delicious. The vibe was nice. TVs, music--I'd go again.
First walking into Craft Burger Bar, I loved the atmosphere and vibe. The hostess was friendly, greeted us with a smile and let us know what the specials were before our waitress came after we were seated. I was craving a burger and man! The options!! I ended up trying the Mac Daddy because I LOVE Mac & Cheese. And I wasn't disappointed. I ordered the burger as it comes just to get the full experience. After trying it, I would like it better without the buffalo sauce personally but it was still very tasty. The waffle fries were delicious as well. Overall, great dish and I'd be back again.

We braved a thunderstorm to eat here and it was worth it! I was craving a burger all week and they did not disappoint. We got buffalo wings to start, perfect amount of sauce and serving size. We both got burgers and they were cooked to perfection. Waffle fries were excellent. Our server was excellent, very friendly and efficient. Atmosphere was lively and we enjoyed the quirky decor. We will be back for more! read more

Burger was very good. You could customize it a variety of ways. The onion rings, waffle fries, and tater tots were cooked very well and just the right amount of breading on the onion rings. The fresh jalapenos had heat which was nice. The bun....the bun was awful. Cold and dry. Where the burger rocked the bun failed. read more

Had a large work lunch here with 20+ folks. The service was phenomenal as was the food which came out incredibly fast. My first time visiting and I will be back for sure. I typically avoid burger places because I can make a mean burger, but WOW. I had the pepper belly Burger and tots very Good. My buddy had the Mac Burger which was awesome looking, I'll be having that next. Inside was clean, no frills bar vibe. read more
Didn't have a burger, which is what we had originally came for. However, we decided to get nachos to start- the waiters warned us they were big. But these were HUMUNGOUS and we couldn't stomach anything else. Super delicious and filling. Plus the iced tea is bomb! I will certainly be back to try a burger. Our waitress was awesome too :) read more

We were out and about last weekend and decided we were in the mood for burgers. The first place we were planning to go to at the oceanfront was packed, so off to Yelp I went (as always) and came across this place on Shore Dr, closer to home. We were immediately greeted and sat right away. As you'd expect by the name, this place does burgers really really well. We started with the soft pretzel app (because I am a sucker for a soft pretzel). They were good, piping hot out of the oven and served with 3 dippers - queso, mustard and this jam. The jam was AMAZING! When I saw that on the menu I thought it was weird, but wow! Next up were the side salads, ceasar for the Hubby, garden with blue cheese dressing for me. Both were nice and fresh, but nothing really spectacular. I'm guessing bottled dressing on both. We both built our own burgers (though there are so many interesting choices on the menu!). Hubby had his standard LTM and I went with cheddar and bacon. These things are big! I loved that they put 2 slices of cheese on mine - nice. The bacon was a little weird in that there were 2 full slices that makes it a little awkward. We ordered mid-rare and while there was no pink, both were super juicy. It has a typical sports bar feel, with lots of TVs. It's clean and the service is fast and friendly. We'll be back! read more

My friend and I decided to try craft burger bar after our original lunch destination was too crowded. I was instantly impressed on how fast their service is and really liked their restaurant and bar layout. We were greeted by Sam who took care to us at the bar too. They have an excellent assortment of local and well known national craft beers on tap! The burger was absolutely delicious and priced accordingly for the quality of beef. 100 percent recommend this place if your in the mood for burgers and beer! read more

This was a great lunch stop while we were in Virginia Beach for a tournament. A little off the beaten path, but totally worth it to avoid crowds and beach front prices! Our meals were delicious. The beef is high quality and the portions are large! I had a lettuce wrap jalapeño burger (sauce on the side - it was HOT!) with sweet potato fries, husband had a bacon burger with regular fries and son had a plain chicken sandwich topped with Mac and cheese. The one downside was my son's chicken sandwich lacked any flavor, so I assume they rely on toppings for the taste. Great attentive service, Great drink specials during the week, we would definitely return! read more

Craving a juicy burger with a twist? This is your place. Super chill spot with incredible food. Nice variety of burgers - I got the pineapple & bbq sauce burger, my husband ordered the basic burger with special sauce. Both were delish! Mac n cheese looked sinful. Definitely on my hit list for next visit. read more

Was in the mood for some burgers and this place was along the way so decided to stop and check it out. The place is nicely decorated to enhance the wagyu choice of meats the offer. Tables are nice and large offering enough space for food and drinks without feeling crowded. For a drink I had the "expresso yourself" with Baileys as they have an option with Jameson. Wouldn't get it again but it was ok. For burger I went with the firecracker.... Don't let the name or the warning on the menu scare you, it is on the mild side. I also had some jalapeño jelly on the side to try it out with the fries and it was delicious !! The sweet and spicy of the jalapeño jelly was really good. The habanero sauce was also delicious with the fries but the sweet and spicy was delicious. I was hoping to have some room for dessert but the burger, the fries, drinks and having to help my wife with her meal left no room for dessert. Service was adequate. Overall really great choice and I will definitely be coming back and recommend to everyone I know. read more

Sept 2023 Same experience from last time but slightly worse. I would highly discourage coming during their busy times as the kitchen definitely gets sloppy on the food prep. The burgers came out well done even though we ordered med rare. The fries portion sizes were drastically smaller. Definitely no QC when the plates are prepped. Hubby ordered bacon on the side and it came out after he ate more than half his burger already. I just can't stand overcooked burgers it's a kiss of death for me. Don't ask me how I want my burger cooked if you don't want or plan to execute it as ordered. 1st time here over 2 years ago and it's never been that good. read more
Our new burger spot in the 757! Location is convenient on Shore Drive with lots of free parking. We came on a Sunday afternoon and had no wait. Service was fine, but nothing spectacular. Menu is great... lots of specialty burgers, but also a few other great-sounding options and appetizers. The drink menu also looked great, but we didn't try any on this visit. I am currently gluten and dairy-free, which is why we came here. They have options for both while still providing delicious meals that don't feel restrictive. I got the Rising Sun Burger which is dairy-free, by default and I added a gluten-free bun, which was very good. Their sweet potato waffle fries were also great, but I surprisingly liked the normal waffle fries off of my husbands plate even more. He got the Mac Daddy Burger and said it was one of the best burgers he had ever had. Prices were super reasonable... we will be back! read more

Once again, my girlfriend and I made the drive from Newport News to Virginia Beach to check out this little spot off of Shore Drive. With both of us having an extended weekend thanks to Independence Day, heading here wasn't a bad deal, especially to try our hands on some local burgers. Now I know it's pretty hot being summertime and all, but you can't go wrong with custom-made burgers.....or can you? Well, let's dive right into it. We decided to skip appetizers and just go with a regular meal. My choice was the Willie Nelson which consists of wagyu beef topped with mushrooms, Swiss cheese and Crafthouse sauce with a side of waffle fries (my GF ordered the Hola Kahiki with onion rings). This particular wagyu beef is from Australia and is low in cholesterol and high in omega fatty acids, therefore healthier for you. And boy oh boy were we impressed with our selections. The beef was very tasty and lean of course. With all the toppings, it made every bite worth it. And my waffle fries actually had a slight crunch to them. I guess you can say this little trip was worth it. From the staff being so friendly and courteous to the cleanliness of the bar, it deserves more than the 5-star Yelp treatment. And it'll be a repeat on our radar. I may try my girlfriend's selection fot the 2nd go-around. Till next time :) read more
After much deliberation one Friday evening, my boyfriend and I decided to get dinner at Craft Burger Bar. This restaurant offers a variety of handheld delights - beef burgers, veggie burgers, chicken & fish sandwiches, and hotdogs, along with an assortment of appetizers and brews. The bar had a hipster vibe, and the rest of the restaurant was in a pretty casual American style decor. Upon our arrival, the restaurant was quite busy. We were seated quickly, but it took around 15 minutes to get our drinks and order placed. They were probably short staffed. Everything on the menu looked so yummy, but after much deliberation I got the Hola Kahiki Burger with a Beyond patty. I also got fries, coleslaw, and the Japanese potato salad. My boyfriend got the Double Big Boss Burger with tots. Also, to be honest, we did order an appetizer but I think they forgot or something because it never came. However, the meal we ordered was more than enough food and we didn't get charged for it, so it wasn't a big deal. Moreover, though, such a thing has definitely put a damper on previous visits to different restaurants when they forgot a big item. Anyway, my burger was delicious. I loved the pineapple, crispy onions, and BBQ sauce. My waffle fries were crispy, and the seasoning was unique, but tasty. The coleslaw and potato salad were decent. The coleslaw could have had more dressing, though. The Japanese potato salad was interesting as it had cucumbers and carrots in it, I believe. My boyfriend loved his burger. It was cooked per his request. It looked so yummy! The tots were crispy and seasoned well, too. One great thing is they have lots of condiments at the table - mayo, ketchup, mustard, and hot sauce. Usually I get a side of mayo, so this was really convenient. Overall, we were really pleased with our meals - as well as the great price! This is a pretty affordable restaurant for sure. We will be back as this isn't far from our neighborhood at all, and there are lots more dishes I'd love to try. I will probably try and come by when it is a little less busy, though! read more

DEEEELICIOUS!!!! This restaurant is my fave burger spot, I don't know why it took me this long to try this restaurant and I love burgers!!! This is hands down the best in this area. We came on a weekday and it wasn't crowded. We ordered our burgers and it also happened to be kids night so that was a good surprise. Our food came out pretty quick. The burger was big, juicy and flavorful the wagyu beef makes a difference. I love how they had different variety to close from and you can also customize how many beef patties you would like. The tots were also very good and extra crispy. Can't wait to go back and try other burgers! read more
