We are visiting Elkhart on Business and pleasure . This is the first place we went for a bite since we wanted a burger . Hands down the best burger I have had in a long long time . I ordered the Stella Moo and it was perfect . We also got the bacon cheddar dip is what our server (Hannah) recommended and it was 10/10. The service was also a 10/10 Hannah was very attentive paid all attention to details and gave us the run down on the background of the restaurant and they way they prep their meats and cooked fresh (Never Frozen) We would definitely come back here for the food and to see Hannah . read more

We really enjoyed the lake side ambiance. The cow you flip over to get service was new, fun and helpful! Our server was fast, friendly and knowledgeable all important characteristics. My wife's Fish and fries were perfect not greasy perfect cook, great seasoning. My very unique never had prior and delicious burger was absolutely fantastic with that Crab Rangoon sauce on top! Wow, wow! why is this the first time in my life! I'm having that again soon! Did I mention our drinks were also very good! Summary - must go! Going back soon... read more

This was probably one of the best service experiences I've had in awhile. Our server was not only very attentive and helpful but management was also visible and checking in with tables! Everyone was very friendly! Fun place right on the water with lots of seating inside and out. The food was really good too! There were a lot of delicious-sounding burgers. I ended up getting the one suggested by our waitress and was not disappointed. Quirky and cute and tasty! Highly recommend! read more

A unique little spot, and fantastic food. We had Cheesy Nugs to start, they were freakin' amazing, who doesn't love cheese...I ate the Stella Moo (Voted number 1 in Elkhart County) and it is worth the fuss...great food! Our server was fantastic too...she had some larger parties, but didn't overlook my wife and I. read more

Do you want a great burger??? Then Flippin' Cow is where to go if you're in the area! Casual atmosphere, great service and everyone enjoyed their burgers, tater tots and onion rings!!! It wasn't very busy while we were there, so we were in and out pretty quickly! I'd definitely go back! read more

Stopped by at the Flippin' Cow for lunch. I had the 'Merica burger and fries. It was delicious! The service was friendly and fast despite the restaurant being really busy. The staff were so helpful. The place has a really eclectic vibe..which I liked. There's also a beautiful view of the lake. It's not a huge place but I really liked it. read more

Soggy burger, didn't taste good enough to get past the wet, falling apart bun. Service was okay, but the food wasn't worth it. Probably a great spot for men wanting a break from their wives. The cheesy nugs were good, but it's impossible to mess up those type of ready to fry foods. Won't be returning. The decor was interesting, and the spot on the lake seemed to be a nice place, but the food is less than mediocre. read more

This is 100% the summer spot to be for a good burger and beer during the summer right off the lake. The cheese nugs mights be the best cheese curd appetizer I've had in a long time. Following that I had the Stella moo burger. It is a quite a large burger and very filling. The staff were also super friendly and attentive. The place really gives off beach lake front vibes and it's awesome. The only thing I wish they had was chicken wings Update: after a few hours the burger really isn't sitting well and happened to get sick from it. Not sure if it was the brisket, bacon, or the burgers itself. Just make sure yours is properly cooked. read more

Great burgers. Good craft beer. Fun service. Pretty location. Where the locals get their burgers and beers

So impressed with everything at this little restaurant. We had the fried pickles and onion rings as an appetizer and they were uniquely good - just something about the batter having a bit of sweetness to it. Loved the sauce for the appetizers. My wife got the grilled brisket and cheese sandwich, but I did not get a chance to snap a picture - it was great by the way. However, I took this picture of the Stella Moo Burger with high expectations. It was so wonderful - all the different flavors that went into creating this wonderful meaty masterpiece. There was also a sweet barbeque (I think) sauce that made it all the much better. Staff was wonderful, absolutely family friendly, and a must if you are looking for a great flavor experience. Highly recommend - 5 Stars! read more

Flippin' Cow - Amazingly good burger! - Burgers Near Me - Elkhart, Indiana

Labor Day almost nothing in Shipshewana or Elkhart is open other than chain restaurants but Sue at the Hilton tapestry Hotel in Elkhart found this restaurant open called the Flippin cow so we went to try it. It was a unique looking place on the water. I don't know what water what lake or what river but it was on the water And it was very, very different looking. If you looked around at the decor was everything from the Bob slide on the wall to a boat to a bicycle hanging from the ceiling and all types of other stuff to look at and money was hanging from the ceiling all over the table. Tops were very unusual. One was made out of pennies one was made out of bottle caps, and one was made out of yardsticks. I have pictures of them which I'll try to attach to this we ordered pretzel bites for an appetizer, and my wife ordered a salad with an unusual fish, white fish in it and I ordered a burger on a plate covered with grilled onions and a side of chips which they make there. Everything was good. I won't say anything was great but everything was good. The waitress's name was Sydney. She was terrific and it was an interesting evening. read more

We an amazing kitschy local place! Makayla was our server and she was a bubbly, fun amazing young lady. She kept us smiling the entire time. Makayla's recommendations were spot on. The hubs had the Stella Moo. The meat was flavorful and juicy. The burger was loaded with smokey brisket, bacon, onion strings and cheese. I had the Maui Wowie which came on a pretzel roll. The sweet savory sauce complimented the burger perfectly. We didn't have drinks but the drink menu was hilarious. I'm sure on a Friday night, there's a bunch of women jamming to the 80's music shouting "Woo Whoo". We absolutely loved this place! If you're driving down 90 West it's totally worth stopping here. read more

First, the place including restrooms were very clean! Suzanne was an amazing and friendly server! We started with the Cheese Nugs! Best I have ever hard! Hubby has the Striper Fish basket, said it reminded him of how his Mom used to make fish! That is a HUGE compliment. I had to try the Hunka Hunka burger! Wow! Very different but the perfect combo of flavors! Wished we lived in Indiana, but we will be back when we return! read more

Parking = horrendous. Atmosphere, Service, & Food 5/5! We enjoyed outdoor seating, which I quickly regretted with the wind tonight but it was still pleasant! Our server, I believe Bailey, was attentive, kind, & very knowledgeable of the menu as the drink menus don't have the draft/bottle options. It was our first time and we'd definitely come back! Highly recommend the bacon cheddar dip read more

The parking lot is very poorly designed. I had a minor incident there that caused over $2,000 in damage to my vehicle, and the owner refused to offer any compensation. Their back lot is extremely small, with only one narrow entry/exit. The only way to leave is to back out or attempt a difficult turnaround while all the other cars are parked facing inward. Even the owner admitted the layout was poor but was unwilling to work with me. I will never return and strongly advise others not to park in the back lot unless they're prepared to risk damage to their vehicle. The picture included is not my vehicle, but another that was damaged on the same day due to the same (too small, poorly designed) parking lot issue. read more

Haven't been to Flippin cow for a while, but it remains a great place for a family gathering. The hamburgers were delicious! I would say the best around. We sat out on the deck and enjoyed watching the water. Our waitress was great and had a wonderful sense of humor. Very enjoyable. read more

Yesterday, while driving back to Chicago from Cleveland, we decided to grab lunch somewhere local without making a big detour. We found a spot called Flippin' Cow, which had nearly 5,000 reviews averaging 4.8 stars -- so we figured it had to be good. When we arrived, it was immediately clear this was a place for locals. As soon as we walked in, we could feel the stares -- like people were wondering, "What are they doing here?" It was uncomfortable, but we brushed it off and just wanted to eat. There were two seating areas -- one with A/C and another with just two fans. It was an extremely hot and humid day, and unfortunately we were seated in the hot section. We placed a simple order: two burgers and a half-size mac & cheese for our son. The large table next to us (about 20 people) ordered just before us, so we expected our food shortly after theirs. But after waiting 30 minutes, with no food and no communication, my wife politely asked our server for an update. She said, "It's ready -- I'll go get it." Another 15 minutes passed with nothing. I asked again, and she said she'd check on it. Still nothing. Another 5 minutes later, we saw her bringing drinks to another table -- not our food. At that point, in the sweltering heat, with a hungry and uncomfortable family, I told her we no longer wanted the food and were leaving. She looked at me and just said "I'm sorry" -- then turned away and walked off. The entire time we were there, we felt out of place and unwelcome. People kept looking at us like we didn't belong. We were shown no respect, and our experience was completely ignored. If you're not a local -- don't go to this place. You won't be treated the same. One of the worst dining experiences we've had on the road. read more

Visited Flippin Cow today. We come often. It used to dockside and you have your choice of inside ( screened in porch) or dining room. The servers are friendly. Making sure you know their secrets code for additional service at your table. Flippin' the wooden cow. Speedy delivery. Today I tried the grilled cheese with brisket and a side of tater tots. It was excellent. The sandwich was seven on a Hawaiian bread and it was very flavorful. Husband ordered the All American Cheeseburger and tots. It too was fixed just right. It might seem odd to comment. The tater tots were really on point. Not over done, not greasy --crispy. The parking is always tight. Remember there is parking across the street. Go visit the crew at Flippin' Cow. A good time and good food. read more

Brittney was a great waitress! Started with a very warm greeting. She welcomed us and asked if we had ever been there before; and since we hadn't, she explained the "cow" to us. We ordered an American burger and added a patty so we could split one burger rather than getting more "bun". We also got the tater tots as our side. Delicious all around! It was definitely worth the drive to check this place out. Can't wait to come back in the summer so I can watch the lake activity while eating! Looks like you can park your boat and dine, too! Great place to explore and ask for Brittney! read more

First timers... parking was a beast and right for us driving a GMC 3500, so be aware. Small lot for parking. The service was very nice and friendly, the food was fine and ambiance was well... a bit loud and just ok. It definitely gives the bar vibe. All in all it was fine and glad we tried it. read more

Awesome service a great food. Last minute choice by my daughter to go here and try it out. Drove an hour in a snow storm and it didn't disappoint. read more

First things first... the ONLY sauce they had that wasn't gluten-free was the Teriyaki, and the only interesting burger I could eat that wasn't just a normal run-of-the-mill burger was the Maui... featuring, you guessed it, the Teriyaki glaze. It's nice they have gluten-free buns, but it's not hard to find GF Teriyaki so that's a point taken off in my book... Hubs' sandwich looked AMAZING. The gluten-free bun I got was one of those tasteless white rice buns. Honestly the burger would've been delicious in a lettuce wrap! I also wasn't feeling like having broccoli or coleslaw, so no sides for me. The grilled pineapple on my burger was mostly tasteless and a bit dried out... which I expect some of that just from being grilled, but this was definitely either an unripe pineapple they used or something else. It had a slight pineapple taste... since I couldn't have the Teriyaki glaze the burger would've been much better if the pineapple was juicy & fresh. The staff... they were hilarious. The gal we got was obviously also the bartender (she said that was her favorite role) and she was playful, fun, energetic & really made the whole experience. It seemed the guys at the table next to us knew her because they kept giving her a hard time, but I'm not totally sure that was the case. She was attentive and hard-working. The murals, lake-themed decor (it's on a lake after all), the dollar bills stuck all over the place with people's personal notes, and the fun looking game along the back with posted rules made this place super fun to eat at... Some tables even had a wooden cow you could "flip" or play with just for the fun of it. LOVE the name of the place... just wish they had more gluten-free options than a bun and a separate fryer for their fries so they could be made GF as well. read more
