Came here after a long day of moving, and my friend helped me, so I offered to treat him. It appears there is often a line here as it is popular with families with children. Because of this, they have a stand with the menu on it and copies that are holdable while you wait if you can't see the overhead which is nice. I got a Buckaroo burger and my friend the Onion, Mushroom, Gruyère (OMG)...or at least that was the idea. They mixed up the burgers when they brought them out. We were so hungry we dug right in, only realizing a few bites later that they'd switched up the burgers. This was evident by the sides, my friend got sweet potato fries and I got crispy Brussel sprouts. The problem with this is I hate mushrooms and only realized I had my friend's burger when I actually bit into one. I know we're partially to blame for not noticing this but, again we were starving and there was a clear mix up on their part as they had our sides and drinks right but not the burgers. That I can't 100% comment on the burger, but it was decent as it was. I'd give them another shot to raise my rating, but until then if you go, check your order before digging in!
After going on this quest of trying to find the absolute best burger in the greater Seattle area my girlfriend and I keep coming back to this place. I think it's the best burger in town. We have tried almost all of the burgers on their menu but I keep coming back to their more plain regular Buckaroo Burger. Think of it as a fancy version of a Big Mac and I love it. The burger sauce is perfect one of the few burgers I will eat without even having to add cheese. I can also highly recommend their lamb burger very well executed and their tator tots are some of the best, crispiest ones I know in town! The staff is always kind and efficient and their drink selection is fantastic also. Think things like draft Kambucha, Draft Root beer, bottled Mexican coke and various beers on tap. They also have gluten free buns available! Give this place a try you will not be disappointed!
As Kramer on the sitcom "Seinfeld" would often say "Giddy Up!" and I am proud to bring that catchphrase back after trying the burgers, fries, and shakes at Giddy Up Burgers! Located on the corner of Leary Way Northwest and Northwest 46th Street in the Frelard neighborhood in Seattle, Giddy Up Burgers is the brainchild of owner Paul Mendez who wanted to bring a "family-oriented" craft burger spot to the Emerald City and found the perfect location by totally gutting and making over a former convenience store and gas station in a area north of downtown. What brought a group of diners and I to Giddy Up Burgers was the fact that we were sightseeing in that particular area of Seattle and many of us had a hankering for hamburgers for lunch hour. Of course, we got our smartphones out and checked on our Yelp app and looked up what burgers were being served nearby and what would popup on all of our phones but Giddy Up Burgers? With a consensus we decided to go, especially since the menu prices looked reasonable and there seemed to be plenty of parking in the area. Upon walking into Giddy Up Burgers visitors will notice the barn-like structure of the restaurant with plenty of outdoor seating, which faces the street in which they are located. It's fast-casual ordering where you order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. The menu at Giddy Up Burgers is separated into categories including their Signature Burgers, their smaller burgers, extra toppings, Speciality Sandwiches, Greens, Kids, Ice Cream, and Sides. Among the orders in our party included multiple orders of their Onion, Mushroom, Gruyère (OMG) signature burger which was a 1/3 pound patty topped with caramelized onions, sautéed mushrooms, gruyere cheese, lettuce and aioli served on a house bun. Another diner ordered The Big Cheese which was a 1/3 patty topped with bacon, cheddar cheese, lettuce, pickle, tomato, onion and their signature Giddy sauce served on a house bun. Myself, not being too hungry I decided to order their Buckaroo Burger which was a 1/4 pound patty topped with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle and their signature Giddy sauce. Our group also ordered a regular size of French Fries and two of their milkshakes. Our total bill was $95.10, which was after tax was added and before gratuity and since we had for up to eight people, our amount was relatively reasonable. It wouldn't take too long for our food to be brought out on individual metal serving tray and the signature burgers are so large that they were big enough to be split among two people and my Buckaroo Burger was the perfect amount of food sold at the perfect price of only eight dollars. Combined with a few fries and sips of my milkshake, I was in burger heaven. I am so happy that places like Giddy Up Burgers are thriving within the Seattle dining scene, as the area doesn't necessarily imbue an atmosphere of being a hamburger haven. But with some of the juiciest hamburgers that I have had in quite some time, topped with some of the freshest toppings, I consider Giddy Up Burgers a must-visit when I happen to be traveling through the Emerald City. With a lovely serve yourself soft-serve bar they seem to have it all at Giddy Up Burgers! Here's to their continued success and here's to hoping that an expansion into other neighborhoods is in their plans for the future because more Emerald City denizens should be able to enjoy these tasty burgers for themselves!
I'm currently on the quest to find the best burger in Seattle and whenever I googled for burger joints to try out in the city, Giddy Up Burgers always showed up. So of course I had to check them out! I came in with a friend during a late afternoon and it was pretty empty, only a mom and their two kids were there. Quiet ambiance during that time, but I have a feeling it gets more energetic at night. Looking through the menu, the Lamb Burger really caught my eye so I had to order it! First impressions when the server came to bring the burger I thought "wow this is a pretty looking burger!". First bite was pretty tasty, but nothing impressive. Midway through eating the burger, my tray eventually became engulfed in a pool of juice from the burger and my hands were dripping. As good as the burger is, I wasn't expecting a wet mess. Giddy Up Burgers is pretty good for what it is and a place I would try it out again when I have a chance. If you're in the Frelard area I would recommend yall giddy up on over there!
Brought my family here for dinner. Option to order at the kiosk or the counter. We chose to order at the kiosk and it was very straightforward. Food came really fast. I love how kid friendly it is and lots of open seating. The ice cream bar was also a fun touch!
ate there for dinner and got me a cheeseburger with fries and a chocoate milkshake . Burger was pretty good and milkshake had good consistency but fries in another hands tasted very much like Mc Cain frozen french fries .Very relax ambiance and not too crowded which was amazong and people behind the counter and waiters were very friendly .
This place came up when googling dog friendly patios in Ballard and I'm glad we came! A sunny Sunday with warm casual good vibes. The food was all tasty and fresh, the tots are the perfect amount of crunch on the outside! Burgers were tasty, and I liked that there was a lot of hot sauces around to try. It was a little expensive but I was just happy to be warm and inside with my dog. Lots of folks enjoying the Seahawks game, big screens around with out overpowering the space. Best part, easy parking in the lot!
I must say I'm going to start this review off on a positive positive note, but it will end on why I gave it 2 stars. We came here after going to the Woodland Park zoo with 2 groups of friends because it was close and had great ratings. My son had chicken strips and fries, I ordered the giddyup burger and fried cauliflower and then we ended the night with their ice cream bar. Service was quick and friendly and the ambience in this place was fun. I was super hopeful that the food was going to taste great. It is $$ for burgers and sides. Which are all Ala carte fyi. Nothing but the kids meal comes with fries/tots. The food was delivered quickly and tasted great. However, within two hours of eating there everyone who ate my fried cauliflower (3 of us in the group of 10) were really sick. Nausea, vomiting, and followed lastly by diarrhea in a bit. That's how we narrowed down who ate what and who was sick. The only common denominator was the fried cauliflower. I was so sick that the next day, even that one of the girls in my group had to call the restaurant to let them know that somebody had gotten ill from their food. I wasn't offered even an apology let alone a refund. Shame shame.
One of my top criteria for a burger: is it juicy & gooey enough that once I pick it up it's impractical to set it back down? Bingo! My onion mushroom Gruyère burger was a delicious mess. Hubby was very pleased with his Giddy-Up burger w/ bacon, cheese & jalapeño. Got 2 generous sides of fries & shoestring onion rings, both tasty. While we prefer thicker onion rings, these were fine since they tasted like actual onions instead of the inside of a Costco freezer (if ya know what I mean). Loved the warm wood walls & ceilings, large spaces & lotsa south & western-facing windows. Giddy-Up could benefit from sound-absorbing ceiling panels, but the noise level on a packed Weds evening was acceptable. Very kid-friendly place, lots of little ones scampering about tonight. I don't mind kids, just a heads-up if a) you wanna bring your kids or b) free-range kids bug you.
Reviews are mixed. Many enjoy the flavorful burgers, welcoming atmosphere, and friendly staff. The good drink selection and milkshakes are also popular.

We went to Giddy Up Burgers in Ballard with the family, and the main reason for trying it was hearing that their gluten-free buns are actually really good. We ordered the OMG, the lamb burger, and the Oklahoma Smash, along with sweet potato fries, a Diet Seattle Cola, and a beer. The gluten-free buns absolutely lived up to the hype. They were genuinely good, and all of the burgers were flavorful and cooked well done. The atmosphere was also pleasant and welcoming, with friendly staff and plenty of seating, which made it a nice place to hang out with the family, there are a lot of kids around. That said, the price point is definitely on the higher side. We found ourselves paying quite a bit more for what felt like a relatively small amount of food. I'm starting to sound like a broken record when it comes to the ever increasing cost of dining out versus the portions you actually receive, but it was noticeable here. Overall, Giddy Up Burgers has a lot going for it. Tasty burgers, excellent glute free burger buns, and a comfortable atmosphere. I enjoyed the food, but at the price point, I'm not sure it offers the best value for what you get. read more
I came here for the second time a couple days ago. I don't remember anything spectacular the first time but I also had my kids with me and was super distracted. This time, I got to enjoy my lunch and it was delicious. My daughter came with me and got the chicken tender kids meal. They were the best chicken tenders I've ever had. I got the burger with fig jam, and bleu cheese and it was delicious! But the real star were the crispy onion rings. They were thinly cut but had a great batter. I will definitely come back when I'm in the area. read more

Giddy Up Burgers is a fun space to get dinner and drinks with friends. They have lots of indoor and outdoor seating with big tables fitting for groups. Lots of parking available on the street next to the restaurant. Burgers are around $10-12 without sides. Burgers are very juicy and come with tons and tons of yummy toppings. Mine came with a roasted poblano pepper, cheese, pickles, lettuce, and a house made sauce. I got a side of onion rings and they were very crispy and came out piping hot. I'll have to try the cauliflower bites and the fried chicken sandwich next tiem read more

Brussel sprouts were to die for. Absolutely loved them. The burgers were so juicy and flavorful. read more
This place is awesome and I want to come here again [and again]. We had the Kickin' Fried Chicken sandwich, slaw and chili. Check out the photo. The food tastes great, the service is friendly and fast and the covid protocols are top notch. The tables are huge and some of the seating is on saddles. I appreciate extra touches like that. Nice beers on tap and there were no crowds when we visited. Giddy Up on up to Giddy Up! read more
Definitely coming back here! The burgers are well-priced and pretty large. The fries are AMAZING! Both sweet potato and regular fries were seasoned perfectly and had a nice crispy texture. They're also really spacious and are dog-friendly! read more

Wow, can't believe I'm just discovering giddy up burgers. I've driven by this spot countless times but finally went for the first time the other night. The burgers here are awesome. Definitely top 3 burger spots in my opinion. The sweet potato fries were good but they were a little on the softer side and not as crispy as I usually like them. Nevertheless I'll definitely be back!! read more

Everything was fantastic here! Stopped in with my husband and two kids. The kids and husband got burgers and I got the kids grilled cheese and the chili. The grilled cheese was made with Texas toast and about as delicious as it gets. The chili was meaty, hot and spicy! So delicious as well. Husband got the Kit N Caboodle and fell in love instantly. The onion rings were actually very thin crispy onions that went on the burger so a side of them was quite greasy and delicious. I know eating here probably will give me a heart attack but damn, it's some good food. read more
I've eaten here MANY times since my first review nearly four years ago and I still love this place. My go-to is the Buckaroo Burger with just lettuce, tomato, and pickles. I like my burgers basic so I can taste everything. My hubs digs their fried chicken sandwich with BBQ sauce instead of the hot sauce. It's super generous with two pieces of crispy chicken! I'm docking one star because their fries are often over-salted and a few times I've had to take them back for a new order. But other than that, I really dig this place for lunch and dinner with my hubs and friends! read more

I had high hopes coming here, which were swiftly ruined. The portions are decent, except it's $6.50 for onion rings which are essentially flimsy strings of onions barely fried.. This was coupled by the fact that I bit into a bone/piece of extremely hard cartilage in my burger (PICTURES ATTACHED) that hurt my tooth and abruptly stopped me from finishing the rest of it. Now I generally don't write reviews, and honestly wouldn't of bothered to write this one except for the staff seemed unbothered by my complaint and actually slightly annoyed. The lady responded "We don't make our meat here and just use ground beef, so yeah sometimes there's bone". There was no apology and no attempt to try and fulfill my refund request. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves but I will not be returning. read more
