Super no-frills, but the food is really good. I had my first elk burger, and it was actually amazing. I liked it better than my daughter's hamburger, which was also delicious. read more

A quiet little burger shack with an amazing ELK Burger and friendly faces. They had several types of sides and add-ons to your burgers too, nice place! read more

Decided to try the roadside burger joint. Good food and service. Kinda noisy because it's literally on the side of the road and some "less fortunate" folks hanging around. Got a call from our bank when we were gassing up at Elk Valley casino 40mi north. My wife left her backpack with wallet and everything in it under one of the picnic tables. The employees found it and called the bank which was how we found out she left it. We drove back to retrieve it and everything was in it, cash , cards and all. Good food, honest people what more could you ask for? We'll be back for sure.... read more

We got burgers, they were highly mediocre for the price. But it's a cool little place to get some food on the road. No indoor seating, only a shack with picnic tables and such. And unfortunately the hardware/thrift store next to it has closed down. read more

We wanted to have a decent meal before we hiked the Trillium Falls Trail, and this was the only restaurant in Orick. Holy moly! This shack was atrocious from food to service to ambiance! Food: Bland! Bland! Bland! I had a cheeseburger with mushrooms, which was as boring as eating cardboard! I'm all about using less salt, but damn, were you out of salt and pepper?!??? My man's burger had half a lettuce and a piece of pineapple from a can. My daughter had a hot dog that she mostly ate, so maybe it wasn't that bad. But everything was so greasy. It felt as if we had downed a bottle of cooking oil. We felt kinda crappy afterward. Service: I don't know if the lady didn't like the way we looked or what, but she had a sour face when we picked up our tray and when we asked for napkins. Maybe she's stuck in the 1920s and not used to mixed couples. Or maybe she's upset that tweakers are hanging out at her shack. Ambiance: All the seats were outside and no umbrellas to block the sun. OMG. There were two benches in the shade, but these two ladies took them with chocolate-covered strawberries on the table. Ummm wouldn't the chocolate melt?? They just left them on the table in the heat. Ew. Then, there was a homeless guy with a machete walking around talking to himself. We were about to sit at the shaded table, but he just stood there waiting for food. Or was he just hanging out? There were other homeless or ragged-looking men strolling around. It was scary and uncomfortable to eat. I mean, what's he gonna do with that machete??? But, hey, at least we got out of there alive and unscathed. Oh, and not getting food poisoning is a plus! read more

To be honest, if this wasn't the only place to eat AND the only place where we could try elk, my rating would be way lower haha We saw it on the way and decided to stop in to try the elk burger. The cheese was not melted and the buns were not toasted. We got it Praire Creek style and the one with mushrooms and grilled onions. The elk was super tasty and juicy though. I personally really enjoyed it but it's honestly because it was elk. If you come here and they are out of elk, I'd not recommend to wait or try other things (we waited about ~20 minutes) The lady was not friendly or happy. She gave me a slight attitude when I asked for napkins but personally it didn't bother me that much I personally loved the atmosphere with the yellow benches and the umbrella and the adorable plants outside. It was a nice day out so I didn't have any problem with it read more

EdeBees Snack Shack - elk burger - Burgers Near Me - Orick, California

Its a cute little snack shop with plenty of shaded seating. They serve American foods such as burgers, hotdogs, chilli fries and so on for a quick bite. Right by the Redwood Highway (101) en route to Redwood National Park and neighboring areas. The milkshakes are absolutely amazing!! They also have elk burgers for the more adventurous folks. read more

I have always wanted to try this place since it is on the way to Crescent City and they have elk burgers. I ordered the 8 spot elk burger which comes with cheese, bacon, tomato, onion, and lettuce. I ordered mine with pepperjack cheese. I also got a side of shredded cheese fries (I wanted nacho cheese. My boyfriend really wanted the shredded cheese so I went with it.) I also got a peanut butter shake. The elk burger was bigger than I thought it was going to be. I thought it was going to be a small patty based on the size options they had. It was a decent size. The bun was untoasted and would have been better if toasted. The burger doesn't come with condiments. They have packets for you to add as much or as little as you like. The elk patty was juicy and flavored well. The burger was a little expensive but worth trying. This burger doesnt not come with fries. The side order of fries is huge. My boyfriend and I shared a basket and we didn't finish it. The fries were super crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Loved them. What I didn't love was the shredded cheese. They throw them on top while the fries are piping hot and the cheese melts a little. Some parts were a little more melted than others. The cheese was kind of gross like that. Definitely will not be getting shredded cheese again. Will try nacho next time, but honestly the fries are great without cheese. They offer milk shakes here with a few different flavors. They let you choose to put peanut butter in chocolate or vanilla. I went with the vanilla and omg it was so good. Strong but not over powering. Such a good milkshake. My biggest fear with small shack like places is that the food will be greasy and super salty. Not the case here. I will definitely be coming back again. And just a note. This place is located in Orick and is not that close to Patrick's point so I don't know what one of the other reviews is talking about. read more

Service was super slow. There were 3 orders in front of us, but it took about 30-45 minutes to get our order. The burgers were fine if you were at a local community cookout because they were not seasoned at all. read more

I was famished after a hike, and I did not take a picture of my food and I wish I had. I don't remember the name, but I know it was the barbecue one with onion rings. It was so fresh and tasty. Cute little spot to grab a meal or a snack. Service was quick, and the locals were super friendly and sweet. Will be back read more

food was delish. service was quick and the people working there were nice, cute dogs in the vicinity.

The name is appropriate because this is a shack along the road with picnic tables for seating. We were heading to the National Park and wanted lunch before. I got the elk burger with onion rings and my husband had the fresh fried fish basket with fries (tater tots and onion rings are also available in the baskets) and a chocolate shake. All of the food was really good. It did take quite awhile to get our food so it isn't a quick place to grab a bite. One woman, with helpers who came and went, took orders, took money, and did the cooking. There is only outdoor seating and no bathroom. read more

7/5/19 Yes, it's actually a shack. Right in the middle of prime hiking in Patrick's Point. They serve mostly burgers and hot dogs. When you come upon it, you're like, hmmmmm.... this looks promising..... but... you'd be DEAD WRONG. Goddam AWFUL. You'll be greeted by seemingly kind people at the window, and everyone in the back would look like they're working hard to please. And well, you're probably right. ........though the real question is, can kindness also mean downright incapable of cooking edible food?... So, when we got here the cashier immediately told us it will be 40-50min before we get food. Yeah, for burgers. Yeah, there's only a few tables outside. ...... well, she wasn't kidding. Took somewhere around an hour. For burgers and hot dogs. At least they could estimate time well... 1. Great Hunter Elk Burger $16 "2 1/3 pound patties, cheese and bacon": I asked the cashier, "Can you make sure this is cooked medium?" The cook manning the grill yells out, "Uhhhh, I dunno but we will try our best." I took that as a good sign at the time cause I mean, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to just cook a patty a minute less right? ......... well, 1 hour later I got me pretty much 2 round bricks between bread. It was so gross that I took a few bites and gave up. Look, if you can't put a patty on the grill, flip it, then take it off maybe a minute short........ I dunno what to say. 1/10 2. Mill Yard Hot Dog $7.50 "hot dog covered with chili topped with cheese and onions": It's a chili dog. Well, no..... It's a bowl of chili with a dog and bun on the bottom. You won't be able to eat it like a hot dog since.... the bread.... is pretty much just a dissolving mess of mush under the liquid. Throw it away. Eat the dog and the chili. 1/10 3. #3 Onion Rings and a Soda $5: The onion rings were over battered and not crisp. 2/10 4. Fries $4: Nicely brown, but strangely despite being freshly friend and hot, they were still soft and mushy? I don't get it. Also had a slightly burnt taste--very very very old oil maybe? Also under seasoned. 2/10 The irony... if they cooked the burgers less, not only would they be more edible, the wait time would probably be shorter too. I dunno if this was the worst burger stand I've ever ever ever eaten at, but it must be one of the elite few this goddam awful. 1/5 #patrickspoint #northerncalifornia #burgerjoint #star #hamburger #hotdog #orick read more

This is the only place to eat in Orick. It is a roadside stand with a few picnic tables outside. It was a little slow because only one person was cooking, but it was cooked to order. They were out of the elk burger so we got regular hamburgers. They were very large and tasted good. Two burgers, one order of standard crinkle cut fries and one can of Pepsi was $22. read more

The only place to eat in this little town, it has a fairly robust menu for such a little place. The elk burger is a novelty and worth trying The portions are plenty and the service can be good. It is not fast food, so be prepared for a bit of a wait. This is a small business owned by a family that lives in the area. I like to support local business. read more

About as average of a burger you can get for a steep price. I would recommend eating at one of the many quality breweries before or after you pass through Orick. read more

Well there isn't anything else around, so that's that. The burgers were decent, but could use seasoning, just a bit of salt and pepper would have helped. Fries were ok. I took a peek in the kitchen while ordering and wish I hadn't. I most likely wouldn't stop again, but others seem to really like it (or hate it). read more

Called to see if they were open at 11:15 when it says it was open at 11am. They said they would open at 1130 when I called and then they called me back to say they would open soon for us and before he hung up he said f you b$&ch! So rude and uncalled for. DO NOT STOP HERE! read more

Great burger and shake. I never knew I wanted pineapple on my burger!! So good, beef burger with pepper jack, jalapeños, mushroom, grilled mushrooms and pineapple. read more

Amazing food, amazing service. Could not recommend this place more! They even had vegetarian options that were super tasty. Onion rings were amazing! Please go here while you have the chance! read more

Amazing service and incredibly nice people! Super glad me and my buddy stoped by and had some food!

If you value your health and your plumbing pass this joint and fast!!!! I have eaten here 3 times to give it it a fair shake and got food poisoning all 3 times!!! Explosive diarrhea is just the start! My friend ate there for the first time today, against my previous urgings to stay far away, and she spent most of the night vomiting for her efforts, Tldr: avoid like the plague, because you will probably get the plague. read more

On our road trip in Northern California, we were looking for a place to grab a bite to eat since we were hungry and in what felt like the middle of nowhere almost. We stopped by a local convenience store and asked a lady in the parking lot were a good place to eat was at and she recommended this spot. When we first got here it looked like a little hole in the wall so we were a bit hesitant. We were also all starving at this point so we decided to go ahead and order something. They had a good variety of food on their menu. All the items on their menu are named after hikes, bigfoot, or trees. My mother and I tried the Humboldt Wrap which included either fried or grilled chicken in a tortilla with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and ranch or honey mustard. I was expecting a small wrap but it was huge and so good! I enjoyed it so much. My brother and Dad both got the prairie creek burger and they're burger was huge as well. They're portions are huge so come hungry. Yes it did take them about 30 minutes to make the food, but it's definitely worth the wait. It's fresh food made as you order so don't expect to be given your meal quick, if you want that go to a fast food place. It's family owned and you can see smiles on their faces when they saw how content we were that the food tasted so great! Amazing place! read more

If I can give this place zero stars I would, ran out of food and had chicken nuggets and corn dogs. Ordered two corn dogs but did not realize it was going to take 45 mins. Better off going to McDonalds haha read more

WOW...just WOW!!! The fish and chips are amazing!!! Very fresh cod fish and wonderful French fries. The menu is amazing, too. Elk burgers are out of this world. delicious. Snack Snack was so generous feeding truckers for free during CoVid lock downs. Let's all support this wonderful restaurant. read more

I showed up just after 7pm on Saturday and they had just closed but they stayed open when they saw me pull in. They didn't have to do it but I'm so grateful that they did! Everyone was super friendly and engaging and the burger? Oh the burger! The bacon, onion ring and BBQ sauce made it as big as my face. It dripped everywhere and I didn't care. This was better than the burger I had in cloverdale on my way up to humboldt. Solid. Legit. Reasonably priced. Really nice people. Do stop in if you are in the area. read more

Elk burgers!! With an honest toasted bun, big and real bread (not fluff!), thick slices of yellow onion for tartness, real juicy slices of tomatoes, hunks of iceberg lettuce: like you would make at home. The price was there: $10 a piece but so worth the experience!! The burger does not taste too much like wild meat, rather it had a nice tang and mine was perfectly cooked. The meat was not dry nor chewy, a nice medium done. I would get a burger here again, and I don't remember enjoying a burger that much in a long, long time! read more

We were staying just down the road and I sent my husband to grab some fries, a Peanut Butter malt and some scoops of ice cream. They only had 2 shake/malt flavors. Chocolate and vanilla. We got chocolate and it was honestly pretty disgusting. The fries were unsalted, and tasted/felt like they had been sitting out for an hour. They didn't seem equipped to handle anyone not sitting down right outside of their establishment to eat. They handed my husband the scoops of ice cream in fry baskets, and the basket of fries. My husband asked for a bag and was handed a local grocery store paper bag. Definitely not the type of service we are used to from small burger joints. read more

Went and got a post-trail lunch. Everything is cooked fresh to order, so our food came out piping hot, perfect for a chilly afternoon. I could have eaten my weight in the tater tots. Got a chocolate milkshake with Oreos and it was fantastic, it had the smoothest consistency and the ice cream was perfectly rich. I meant to take pictures but I inhaled everything, oopsiedoodle. read more

I stopped by with the hubby as we were leaving the Redwoods. We both tried the burger with bacon and avocado and it was delicious! Maybe it's because we were hungry but we are pretty sure it's because they use grass fed beef for their patties - And they were wayy better than any burger I've ever had. And we are from LA. The place is located on the side of the 1. It's kinda easy to miss but don't let its facade turn you away. They accept cash and cards (which is great for us cashless carrying folks). As we were munching away at our burgers a family stopped by and saw how "small and open" the place was and just left. I have realized that just because a place doesn't have the amenities of a full restaurant doesn't mean it's bad food. Sometimes it's the little whole in the walls that make places more memorable. I really hope people give this place a try. read more

I wish I would have read some of these reviews before visiting this establishment. Ordered 3 milkshakes and two elk burgers. I gave the cashier my card only to see they had added on a nearly $10 tip onto my card. When I asked if we could adjust the amount, the lady in the back said she didn't have time to deal with it. The food was mediocre at best. Avoid this place! Keep driving!!!!! read more

Best burger I've ever tasted! What a great hole in the wall place. Chef is a one women army and her cooking is delicious. Do not let the small town appearance fool because this is truly a place to stop! Definitely going back! read more

On our family vacation I had researched places to eat along the way... The reviews are either 5 stars or 1 star here at the snack shack. The appearance as you first walk up is dirty which could be partly from being right off the road but the place could use a deep clean and some paint on the outside and also a good scrub and clean on the inside.. I'm a little curious when the last time the snack shack has been inspected by the health department, it is cluttered and does not look clean inside. The burgers did take about 20 minutes to come out which I don't mind but I think if the grill was turned up the burgers would cook faster and wouldn't be so dry and over cooked. The deep fry oil on the fries tasted old and the chilly fries were a giant pile of greasy fries under a ton of chilly and I unfortunately couldn't eat them. I hope the snack shack can take some of these negative reviews and use them to better the food and service. I personally didn't have a problem with the owner/cooks service or attitude but she definitely didn't go out of her way to be friendly and I could feel she has lost her joy for serving people good food if she ever has had a love for it... if you don't love what you do find a new profession! TRUST JESUS!! read more

I really hate to down a place that's clearly a small business, but, I have to. There was a total lack of professional pride in serving food here. Sadly, they are literally slinging sh!t out a window. This place should be called crap shack. The food is greasy and unseasoned. The individual taking orders could be described the same way and had her boobs hanging out so far we were all allowed to see the kissy lips tattoo on her left boob. The onion rings tasted of beer and oil, no salt, fries were frozen prepackaged but again no salt. The cheese on the burger, as you can see in someone else's posted picture, does not come melted onto the burger. It also does not melt as you eat it. The Elk burger and the beef burger both come without salt or pepper or condiments. It's just amazing that a business can run like this. I wish them well but truly hope they consider investing a little more in the quality of the food, service and presentation. read more

Best after hike/drive spot for an elk burger. Just do it, you won't be disappointed. Lots of local flavor with the Orick folks as well. Get there early, since the elk patties sell quickly. read more

This place is a roadside gem. Not only are the elk burgers worth the wait, but the sides - fries, tater tots, and onion rings - were also top notch. The chicken tenders were crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The menu is extensive and boasts many other delicious-looking items we didn't get to try. A little more about the elk burgers: the elk is fresh and locally sourced, and it tastes that way. There are a variety of options for burger fixings, such as bacon, chili, and several different types of cheese, but personally I recommend keeping it simple so you can enjoy the flavor of the elk. They make sure that none of their ingredients is ever frozen, which helps explain why this place is so popular with both locals and travelers. The lines around lunchtime may be a little long, but your patience will be richly rewarded. read more
