During my visit to Auburn, CA, I checked out Grumpy's. This is a real cool spot to grab a burger and watch a game. They have plenty of TV's in the bar area and a huge TV in the main dining area. I ordered the Nor-Cal Burger and it was great. Smash burger done right. Onion rings were also cooked perfectly & I loved the ranch sauce that came with it. We had grear customer service from all the staff working on Saturday night. read more

Grumpy Burger in Auburn did not disappoint I ordered the patty melt and it was everything it should be--cheesy, melty, and straight-up delicious. Comfort food done right. I also love a good walk-up, order, and pay setup--quick, easy, no fuss. Bonus points for the good ice (you know the kind). Parking was a breeze with a big lot, and there's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, so it never feels cramped. The staff was kind and efficient, which always makes the food taste even better. Solid spot, solid vibes, and I'll definitely be back. read more

"Left GRUMPY afterwards!!!" -Location and vibe of restaurant is cool. Can't go wrong with two garage door windows. Opens up to spacious outdoor seatings. -Bar decor (see pix.) Anything on tap is usually good. There were a few local brew offerings. My timing was off, got a last half pour and Keg needed changing. Pretty sure i got a half old half new pint. Very flat "bootsy." -Was hoping for a super bomb, smashed burger. Fixing was fresh, but nothing amazing that stands out. Beef patty had more of a "over smashed, on the grill too long" flavor then anything else -Onion rings wasn't crispy. Kid likes the tots. Hopefully they kick the burger game up a notch. We pass by all the time heading East on 80. read more

We seen all the good Yelp reviews and decided we would check it out sometime. One day we stopped and learned why they have good reviews. It's a small place with indoor/outdoor seating menu on the wall order at the counter. Hubby had a double cheeseburger which he loved fries are separate also very good. No vegetarian burgers. Really good milkshake. Soda's and beer too. Right off the highway, easy parking. Definitely worth checking out if you like a good burger as they say if you do a small and simple menu do it well... they understood the assignment! read more

Chocolate custard shake: 5 stars, but next time I'll ask for it in a beer glass, instead of an ocean-polluting throwaway plastic cup . Grumpy burger: 5 stars, no complaints! Yummy!! Burger bowl: wife polished it all off. She is Polish, after all...5 stars. French fries: 5 stars, 6 if I could do that. Fresh, hot, appropriately salty. Onion rings: overcooked for my taste but wife liked them. There was one that was less cooked than the others and that one was perfect. 4 stars. House made sauces: quite good but a little of the dilly ranch goes a long way. Still, 5 stars. Atmosphere: pleasant. Big tv for the sports fans, lovely fireplace in the corner. I want to sit next to it on my next visit. Neat and clean restaurant. 5 stars. Service: cheerful and friendly. 5 stars. Beer selection: meh. Only one dark(ish) beer and it's a boring one. I hate IPAs, so I like to see a nice porter or stout on a beer menu. I skipped beer since there was nothing really for me. 2 stars for that. Price: $46 for the two of us. On par for the current market if you ask me. Well done, Grumpy! We will be back! read more

I was on my way to a different bugger establishment but then thought about supporting small businesses. Let me tell you this place did not disappoint. The food was delicious. The place was very open, had plenty of seats inside and out, and had a bar. They also had TVs everywhere to enjoy sports games. I had the double smash with cheese added jalapeño and and order of tater tots with a side of grumpy sauce. Omg the bigger had amazing flavor , the patty was perfectly cooked. The tots were nice and crispy. I'm glad I stopped by to support them. read more

Came here for a late dinner really loved the burger bowl I think it was a large portion for an incredible price Full of protein and it was perfect for a pre-workout meal. I did not feel too stuffed, but I had so much energy. Parking was super easy to find and Staff was super welcoming as soon as you walk in you are exceeded and food comes out super quick and delicious read more

Had lunch here after seeing it from the freeway. The Smashburger I ordered was very good. The house made burger sauce was excellent and the produce was fresh. My only issue is that the burger patty was a little too thin. The menu says it's a quarter pound patty but when smashed, get's pretty thin. Perhaps a 1/3 pound patty would be a better choice. The onion rings were good and the ranch dressing to dip them in was flavorful. There is no table service but employees stopped by the table a couple times to make sure everything was good with us. The restrooms were clean and properly stocked with towels, soap, etc. This was a good experience and I'll be back. read more

Grumpy’s Burgers & Brew - Grumpy burger with cheese, onion rings and a grilled chicken salad. - Burgers Near Me - Auburn, California

I stopped by around 2:45 pm on a weekend since the parking lot didn't seem to be packed. From the looks of it, they're doing a pretty decent business because the parking lot always seems full. I walked up to the counter and a very nice young lady took my order. I ordered a Grumpy Burger with cheese and everything on it, onion rings and a diet cola. I was given one of those light up buzzer things and my order was ready in under 10 minutes. Everything was still hot when I got home. The burger was well seasoned and all the ingredients were fresh. I will say that I didn't care for the Grumpy sauce that came on the burger, but that could be because there was just so much that it was overpowering. The next time I go I'll ask if they can sub with mayo. The onion rings were delicious...nice and crispy with generous portions. Their house made ranch doesn't taste like you'd expect typical ranch dressing to taste, but it wasn't unpleasant. Just different. Also, I love the ice in their ice machine! They have really cool decor, a nice bar to sit at or you can choose a tabletop to enjoy your beverage and a meal. I'm looking forward to trying one of their chicken sandwiches and a milkshake in the future. read more

We placed a pick up order for a burger and chicken sandwich, both cut in half. They did not notice that half the chicken sandwich was raw after it had been cut. Hope they didn't use that knife to cut other patron's food. Otherwise, onion rings, tots & ranch were good. Burger was decent, but messy. Order was ready for pick up on time. read more

Newly opened burger joint in Auburn working out the kinks in service. 12:43 on a Wednesday & the lot was full(shared lot with Black Bear Dinner) 20 wait was stated when we placed our order, no prob. Ordered Grumpy cheese burger, Grumpy burger,tots, onion rings & a chocolate custard shake. Sat outside,heat lamps @ the long community bar. All the outdoor tables were full. Inside fireplace tables were also pretty full. Seating at the bar as well. All the food was delicious, however it took about an hour from ordering to be notified by the ready Buzzer for pickup. Smash burgers were thin, crunchy on the edges, grilled onions, tomatoes, lettuce, pickles. Tots were hot & crunchy with a dill ranch dip similar to tartar sauce, excellent. Onion rings were lukewarm but plenty of crunch. Four or five TVs inside running sports reruns. Numerous local craft beer on tap,but they were outta four of them. Wine also available. I'm hoping they will work out the hiccups,get the crew in sync & remain successful. Most likely will return. read more

Very nice people. Clean restaurant. They have the good ice. The food is insanely expensive with little options of what to order and the burger didn't really have a great flavor to it. It feels like to me, if you charge that much for food you should be having quality of each topping. The lettuce was awful. Barely any cheese. Hopefully it gets better but for that price it'll be a while before I try again. read more

So many things wrong with my experience. The day before going to Grumpy's I tried calling to see if they offer a vegan option, or even a salad but it's impossible to get through to a live person. After arriving, a fellow customer directed us to stand in line to place our orders. I was assisting a senior citizen and gave the hostess/cashier her order as the hostess/cashier pushed buttons on the register. When we finished she finally looked up and asked if we were ready to order. I was confused and said we just placed our order. She responded with something along the lines of "sorry, I was doing something else". Then we were handed a buzzer. No direction on where to pick up our food or where to get our drinks. Thankfully, the restaurant is small so we figured it out. I felt like there was absolutely no customer service....and certainly not senior friendly. read more

I've been really craving a smash cheeseburger for awhile. I drive up and down the 80 corridor quite often so I finally made the stop. I ordered a cheeseburger with no sides. Alas I'm still looking for a great smash cheeseburger. This one wasn't great. It wasn't terrible. And it wasn't memorable. read more

Found this little gem while driving up out of the Sacramento valley fog. It's a smashburger place! YUMMY!!! We both had a bacon and cheese smashburger, him plain, me with everything! It was mouthwatering! Of course they offer variations and other things like chicken sandwiches. Not sure what other sides they have but I had the fries, which were perfectly crisp and my husband had tots, also nice and crunchy. They have several beers on tap and soft drinks. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The inside has several tvs and is comfortable with a varity of seating. read more

Came at 1:30 on a Friday. Great service, fries are crispy on the outside and soft in the middle aka perfect and what seems to be fried to order. I also got a spicy chicken sandwich and if you like the spicy mccrispy at McDonald's this is for you but so much better. It's bigger, crispier, more flavorful and if you are a McDonald's lettuce fan they nailed it. It's spice maybe a 4 out of 10 on the spice level just enough to keep it interesting and make you want to have a soft drink or a beer/cider (which they also have a great selection of) read more

Excellent service! Yummy food! Nothing more to go on about. We will definitely be back!!

Staff was awesome! Love that. Burger bun left a lot to be desired.. they flatten out and add no flavor. Shredded lettuce takes away from the crunch I love on a burger. Sauce was runny, needed more/more flavor/more something. Oh how I want to love this place, perhaps I'll give it another try again later. It's still new, maybe they'll update the menu? Tots were crispy, would recommend! Excellent beer list and the place was very clean. read more

I'd say Grumpy's gets the job done. Nothing spectacular but a decent burger w fries and/or onion rings. The flow is order and then go to the pick up window when your buzzer fires. The interior is clean and inviting- not very big so weekends might be tricky but we went for a Thursday lunch which was pretty quiet. TVs are there for any sporting event. Burger was a smashburger over but I commend them on the quantity and quality of the avocado on her burger. Beer selection was ok on tap - again nothing that would blow you away. As many yelpers noted, probably a great stop to/from Tahoe. read more

My hubby and I went on a motorcycle ride to go all over nowhere because it was such a beautiful day ...we found this lovely restaurant bc it was close by. From the moment we stepped in, we were welcomed by EVERYONE that worked here. What a refreshing way to feel when stepping into an establishment of ANY kind! Plus the food was AMAYYYYZINNNGGGG! The grumpy burger, the chicken sandwich, the custard shakes n the grumpy sauce- CHEF's KISS! Even as we were eating outside on the patio, those that were cleaning were checking in on us. This is a not so hidden gem! It's a must visit!!! We will def be back! Thank you so much! read more

The burger was delicious! I would get a double patty next time though. I like that they have options for the side, French fries, onion rings and tater tots. The fries were crisp with just the right amount of salt, the onion rings were perfect too! I wish they gave a larger portion of the side but I guess it's also good that they are trying to prevent waste. read more

Dropped by to get a bite to eat. They are closed during hours listed as being open. Half star at best. This is the place where a "particular" bar tender would never actually write down your order. Food came out wrong every time. I am sure he was "Family". I can only hope they improve with new ownership. read more

The hamburger was pretty good. I prefer fresh onion as opposed to grilled, but I should have read the menu better. The onion rings were cooked. I'm pretty sure in old oil. Some were very stuck together. Honestly, I won't be ordering onion rings again. I was disappointed. And they were very pricey. I hope the establishment reads their reviews because I would love to see this business do better. read more

I was excited to see another burger place open in Auburn. The burger tasted very good and overall was worth the visit. The fries were terrible. Sysco quality, expensive and a small amount. Overall the prices are tough. The order I received was not consistent with the price that I paid. The atmosphere was nice. They did a great job with the Starbucks remodel. Only counter service available and you pickup/ clear your own plates. Not sure why there point of sale asks for a tip. You're not getting service unless you sit at the bar. read more

We were sure excited to grab a burger since we knew & loved the "Old Grumpy's" The decor was cool but the food was not. The burger was decent sized but omg so so salty. I had the onion rings with mine and the oil was literally pooled up on the bottom of the tray. It was gross. I took 1 bite and my husband said "you gotta look at your lips, they are greasy as hell". It was nasty. Hubby had a cheeseburger and they took "flame broiled" to another level. It was torched. Also really salty. He loves salt & a little char but this was beyond. Normally we would say something but I had really wanted sushi so we dumped it and hit up our local favorite and I was so happy. My advice-- if you want a salty grease filled meal, go to grumpy's. read more

Okay this place is AWESOME!! I can't believe we have lived here for a few years and have never been here. Such a great selection of smash burgers and they serve local beers, wine, and ciders. The staff is so sweet and efficient. They accidentally messed up my husband's burger and quickly got us a new one and were very sweet about it. This is probably one of our new go to places since it is kid friendly, sources good ingredients and has huge tvs with all the games on. Highly recommend Grumpys! read more

$100.00 for the (2) adult's and (2) children. Food is ok, but it burgers and fries. Come on!!

I went for the first time and got it to go Came home the burgers were all messed up.For one thing I had to put the burger back together and I looked at the sorry ass of a bun way to small I cant believe they can let that go out the door.I won't be going back..... read more

The bathroom was the nicest bathroom I've ever experienced in a restaurant or store before. It was perfectly clean--no splash puddles or anything and the lighting was peak. It gave the whole thing a nice moody vibe. As for the burger, it was decent. Unfortunately, some ingredients fell on my lap so you have to be careful when eating it because it's very sloppy, but maybe I'm just a little special because I have a tendency to drop food on myself for some reason. read more

The hamburger was really good but the taco was not good. I don't know if I would go back again! We did order out. Good job. It was warm and ready to eat. read more

Burgers and onion rings are wonderful. I have been here twice. I would pass on the burger bowl did not care for. Food has to look good for me. Still new service needs a little work because they are still learning the menu. Ambiance is great. It is very clean. Thank you we will be back again! read more

Everything was decent they just charged a little more than I was expecting fir a smashburger.

If you are in the hunt for a place where delicious burgers come along with warm hospitality, then Grumpy's Burgers is your destination. The name says grumpy, but it is far from being that-very welcoming and laid back. And the ideal place to have your meal with friends or family. Burgers steal the show in the menu list. Each patty is juicy and full of flavor, lying inside a fresh bun and topped with your choice of fixings. From the classic cheeseburger to the more adventurous Grumpy Deluxe with caramelized onions and smoky bacon, each satisfying and memorable bite will be different. But the surprise turns out to be onion rings: golden, crispy, perfectly seasoned. These are crunch beauties far from being the sole side dishes to any burger but companions worthy of taking extra time and satisfaction in. For dessert and to finally give the last touches to your meal, you need to try custard at Grumpy's: rich and creamy, which is just what one needs to satiate that sweet tooth. Be it plain vanilla or even loading it with hot fudge and crushed cookies, this dessert does make an impression. Grumpy's fuses great food with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The staff are attentive and inviting, quick with recommendations of menu favorites, and always make you feel right at home. Every detail from the first to the last bite of your visit is so well thought out to make sure you have a memorable dining experience. Whether for the burgers, the onion rings, or the custard, one thing is certain: full and with a smile is how you'll leave. read more
