The food was ok, but the ordering experience left a bad impression. The cashier asked if I wanted sauce, so I asked what kind they had. She simply said "burger sauce" and "ranch." At no point was I told that each sauce would cost $2.08. She went ahead and added both sauces to my order, and I didn't realize they were an extra charge??? Charging over $2 for a small sauce is already expensive, but not informing customers before adding them to the order is frustrating. A simple, "Just so you know, each sauce is $2.08," would have avoided the issue. Transparency about extra charges goes a long way. Because of that experience, I left feeling disappointed. The lack of communication about the additional cost overshadowed the meal. read more

Yo this place blows my mind. The location is super inaccessible. It's down an alley and really hard to get to. They only have like 4 seats outside and you don't want to wait there because they take forever. I placed an online order, waited 30 mins and then left my house. Drove over, circled the block 8 times to find a spot. walked over, waited some more because it wasn't ready. The prices are insane too. Just so expensive. Finally got it, drove home and there was no patty in the burger I had ordered. Like none. So it was a 45 minute hassle (I live blocks away) and a $50 meal for two and they totally boned me. They have a phone number but you can't get through. So I guess I'm going back to do it all over again. You can't have this many dings against you and then screw up so badly. One measly star is more than they deserve. read more

I've come to Hate Burger a lot over the past 4 and 1/2 years and it's always a hit. I've been there for family outings, dates, and girls day out and I'm always happy to recommend it whenever I can. Their burgers are always juicy and delicious but their fries are better than In N Out's. read more

their door dash selections are really dysfunctional. I let 2 cashier's know in person since their phone line doesn't work. It's been a month and still no change. Added pictures about these complaints: what kind of required selections are these?? Vegan Chicken Sandwich - Spicy Required: * 2 Patties+$4.16 * 3 Patties+$8.32 Were Required to make it 2 or 3 patties, no option for just one patty. And you have to pay for it. Also required to make other nonsense selections for this item. read more

The underground feel gives a change of pace for a burger experience. Great service! Welcoming and friendly. Walk up to the window and place your order. Like the new addition of bar seating to enjoy the alley ambiance. Look for the umbrellas right in downtown. The murals will guide you. Smash burger was great! A perfect bite for a quick stop to continue along your journey. Spicy is pretty spicy! Loved it. Street parking just around the corner or parking garage across the street. read more

The concept is great, an I enjoyed the ordering process in the Redlands alley. I ordered the smash burger which had fresh pickles ,brioche bun, red onions, and special sauce. 1 thing was missing a Smash burger style patty. Their smash burger patty is the same size in thickness as any regular burger stop. The patty was also not seasoned to my liking. read more

Been here a handful of times now and I'm ready to give 3 stars. They're located in the umbrella alley, tucked away to the side. You walk up and ring the bell to order at a small window. There is a line of small counters with seats leading up to the window. No problem with the staff, they're nice and helpful. The chicken sandwiches are pretty good. What leaves me at 3 stars is the burgers themselves. It's a burger place, and one could deduce that the burgers are going to be good. I found that I hate the burgers (pun intended). I'm not sure if it's the meat, or the sauce, but one or the other has an odd taste. The lettuce gets soggy immediately too. 3 stars for OK, and I'm only going back for chicken sandwiches. read more

I've ordered from here a few times and my order never has any issues or anything missing. Burgers are small but the patty is flavorful and the French fries are top tier. Wish the patties were larger for the price I'm paying which is why it's 4 stars instead of 5. read more

What a memorable day with my kids as we stumbled upon this place by accident while walking down an umbrella alley in downtown Redlands. First of all the colors and art on the building where Hate Burger was found was eye catching to say the least, come on, when you see a skull eating burgers and French fries with snakes, it certainly arrests your attention. We ordered two burgers: the vegan spicy chicken burger and the smash burger. The vegan spicy chicken burger was good but too spicy, and not the good kind of spice...more like hot wings type of spicy which was too strong and over powering maybe next time we'll do without the spicy and get the regular. But the real winner was the smash burger, it was so vegan cheesy good! My kids and I loved it. Kinda pricey but the smashburger was a good deal for $7 compared to the chicken burger which was more. It was outside dining only, given that it was a hot day didn't help, but the girl at the counter gave us cool water which helped, especially after that spicy chicken burger. I'll definitely come back for the smashburger again and in the meantime this is me smashing a like on this review. read more

Okay so this spicy chicken sandwich is so delicious! I love the combination of all the flavors! Plus, the chicken tastes so fresh and the batter is perfectly fried, not too crunchy, not too soggy. The fries were just okay. Their customer service was so friendly and prompt. And they give free soda refills which is great! Especially if you're out waiting for your food. However, it was a little tricky to find the place. Once you see the alley of umbrellas, you know you've made it. That alley is where you'll find the entrance. Oh and only outdoor seating. Ps... I'm a big foodie but even I couldn't finish this sandwich lol so you might be good sharing read more

There's no hate for Hate Burger only love! This is a hidden gem! There is parking nearby but it is best to park at the public garage on Citrus Ave. I came on a Wednesday afternoon around 1pm and there wasn't parking on the street. The public parking is very close and an easy walk. Hate burger is in the 5th street alley. It is so fun and Instagram worthy to come and take a Pic of the umbrellas. I ordered online. It was easy. There's only outdoor seating. It's not a place for groups. It's a great place for take out. There's only a window to order and pick up. My food was cooked and ready in about 10 minutes. They weren't busy. The was one person ahead of me. I got the vegan smash burger. It was one of the best vegan burgers I've ever had. The bun was toasted and crispy. The. Burger tasted like the real thing. The caramelized onions were so good. I really enjoyed the burger 5/5. The chicken burger also was good. The chicken was big and juicy! I wished only that the breading was crisper. Everything was hot and made fresh. 4/5 Service was great. Very helpful. The manager suggested the bbq sauce would go well with the chicken. She was so right. The 2 together were great. I really liked this place and I don't know why they're not busier except that my 2 burgers were $30. Next time, I want to try their real smash burger! I bet it would be good. read more

I just was used to walk by this burger joint cause the name says HATE burger so I was just wasn't sure about trying it. This burger has been highly recommended by a co-worker/ friend that she even bought me one to taste. Well I wasn't disappointed. The NV CHEESEBURGER $15, was humongous and large and beef patty was thick and juicy. I just finished half of it and saved the other half for later. read more

Hate Burger - NV Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Redlands, California

Pretty good burger joint located in the Orange Street Alley under the umbrellas. Look for the red brick building and giant skull artwork. You walk up to the window and order your food. One con is that there is no seating so we had grab it to go and sit somewhere else. There is a small counter in front of the window if you do want to stand and eat. The food took around 15 mins to come out. The cheeseburger was juicy, veggies were fresh, and the bun was nicely toasted. I do wish the patty had a tiny bit more salt or seasoning but overall it was still good. The Cajun fries were hot and crispy. The Cajun seasoning was really good and had a little kick to it. read more

Finally decided to try this place after walking by a million times. We got the spicy chicken sandwich ($16), Cajun fries ($4), and a regular vanilla milkshake ($9). Really wanted to like this place, kind cashier& service, huge complimentary water cups on a hot day, but that's the best I can say. Spicy Chicken - 3/10: The spicy chicken sandwich ($16) was smaller and more expensive than other local hot chicken sandwiches (Cluck Chicken $15), even compared to downtown LA prices (Howlin' Rays $14). Hate Burgers was not as good in flavor complexity (spicy without as much umami) or texture (soggy chicken, not toasted bun, plain coleslaw in the sandwich). The spicy chicken is also definitely more a medium than mild spice level - wish they offered different spicy levels like most chicken places. Cajun Fries - 1/10: Soggy, lukewarm, fries that while had good seasoning was wasted by the fact that they were definitely not fresh off the fryer Regular Milkshake - 2/10: You know that freezer burn icicle texture you get on ice cream when it's left in the freezer? Somehow that made it into this milkshake and once every few sips were disappointing due to that weird occasional icicle texture. Also it's $9 when In N Out does it better for half the price. Food took about 15-20 minutes to come out with 1 in person / 2 online orders ahead of us, which felt reasonable. Disappointed and probably won't be back. See photos for updated menu pricing. There is seating /table now, but it's only outdoors. read more

Super yum but genuinely so expensive. I got two burgers with two fries and two drinks and it was like 60 dollars

Ugh man, this place is so good! My partner and I went here on a trip to Redlands in December, and we're still thinking about their burgers! Even though I ate here a while ago, I felt like I still had to review Hate Burger. As a vegan, I really like that the vegan options are the default. I've never really seen a place that does that before! Additionally, the staff there were all very friendly and accommodating. I liked the booth set up of the place. The music was also very fun too! It felt like a very downtown Redlands experience. When we went to Hate Burger, the current milkshake flavor was peppermint, and it was so tasty! It's rare to find good vegan milkshakes, but the peppermint milkshake was so delicious and refreshing without being too sweet. And the burgers! The patty was well-seasoned and grilled, the bun was nice and soft, the sauce was great. Hate Burger has some of the burgers my partner and I have ever had! I can't wait for my next trip to Redlands so I can come to Hate Burger again. read more

Hate Burger is located in an alleyway (search for the colored umbrellas) in Redlands, CA. I love the graphic wall displayed - it is bright red with a skull and French fries, so you'll know it's Hate Burger as soon as you see it ! You'll also hear rock music playing (Metallica was playing when I walked up). The con would be that there is no seating here. It is a walk up burger stand but you have to take it to go so just be aware of that. I tried a variety of items; chicken sandwich with hate sauce, cheeseburger with grilled onions, fries, chocolate shake and vegan cookies and cream shake. The food was overall very tasty ! The cheeseburger was great, the chicken sandwich needed a bit of salt in the batter but I ordered the hate sauce and it was DELICIOUS! I hope they bottle it one day, it's that good and gave the sandwich the kick I was looking for! The chocolate milkshake was thick and the vegan cookies and cream had a thinner consistency but didn't lack in flavor ! The fries were crispy and salty , I didn't use any condiments to dip them in because I enjoyed the taste so much ! Service was friendly (shoutout to Mac) and it took about 20 minutes for our food. I'd definitely come back again for a to go burger ! Follow me on my Instagram foodie pages @ guacdirtytome_ or @ inlandempirefoodies ! read more

Such a little gem. I already love downtown Redlands, so when you find a good off the beaten path place its a treat. Was a Thursday. One employee took our order & cooked our food. About 15 minute wait. And it was definitely worth the wait. Meat & if you absolutely need it Vegan option for your burgers or chicken. Definitely 10 out of 10 recommend. read more

I will start with the pros. I enjoyed the overall vibe and alley location, which is great for a nice day outside. The French fries and the sauces (ranch and hate sauce) were delicious dips. The cons-me and my partner did not like the burgers. I thought they may have even given us the vegan patty's on accident because the meat just had a really odd, synthetic, flavor. I did not end up finishing my burger. It tasted like if Five Guys was really bad. It was also pretty pricey. I would not come back. read more

Love the vegan cheese burger, the vegan chicken sandwich is sooooo good! The fries are good but sometime they're super greasy.

I recently came across this fine establishment while hanging out with a friend, and we figured we would give it a try. Little did we know this choice would change our lives for the better. Immediately as I gazed my eyes upon the restaurant, my eyes were blessed with gorgeous, extravagant murals painted over the building. I walked to the window and was greeted by a young lady by the name of Cecilia. When I tell you I received the best service of my entire life, I mean it. I could tell that she had passion for her work, she engaged in conversation with me while holding a genuine smile. Me and my friend felt welcome, we felt respected, this restaurant was a safe space. I highly recommend that the owners promote her or give her a raise, she is an outstanding employee. Me and my friend sat down and waited for our food, which was done fairly quickly. As we bit into our burgers, a euphoric sensation came over both of us. We had been transported to another dimension purely of flavor. Never have I had the pleasure of experiencing such texture and depth within a meal. The fries were no different, as they were perfectly crisp and seasoned. I urge anyone reading this to dedicate some time to exploring what Hate Burger has to offer, I might even say that it is worth an entire trip centered around it. Overall, this was one of the best experiences of my entire life, and I absolutely will be coming here again. I adore the food, vibe, and service here like nothing else. Hate Burger is a home away from home. read more

Great service! The young lady who helped us was very sweet. The onion rings were great, the fries were decent. I like a seasoned burger but I didn't like the seasoning on this burger nor did I like the cheese that was used on the burger. I feel like it was more of a preference thing for me so it's up to you to see if you like it. Gotta keep it real! read more

I actually had a colleague tell me that they love this place for their chicken sandwiches, and at the time I laughed at them for loving a burger place for their chicken. Now I fully understand. I have eaten here exactly 2 times and both times I got the spicy chicken sandwich which was delicious! It comes out hot and fresh, it's very spicy so beware (and I have a high tolerance). I think where other reviews have rated this place lower are probably because the burgers are not as good as the chicken which you would not expect given this place is named for burgers. I tried my husband's burger, which is how I know. They do have non-spicy versions of the chicken sandwich. If you haven't been happy with the burgers in the past, I would try the chicken instead. You can expect a 15 minute wait from whenever you order but the Alley is cute, with several photo ops to take up your time. read more

I think this is THE first burger that I couldn't fully fit into my mouth! Every bite was juicy and the burger was dripping with so much sauce! Definitely one of the best burgers I've had in a while! I got the double bacon cheese burger and it was massive, it was made to perfection. Ordered 2 burgers and it came out pretty good quickly, which was very surprising since there was only 1 person working. Took our order and started cooking right away! Got our order within 5-10 minutes. read more

I ordered ahead online 2 double patty spicy chicken sandwiches. I sent my boyfriend to pick them up. And the 2 girls in the front on the side entrance gave him a bag with only 1 double patty. And he went back and they said that's all we ordered. So he came to grab me to show the receipt. When we returned they admitted their mistake and made us wait another 15-20 min. We asked for an extra ranch for the inconvenience and they flat out said no. So we came back home with one hot sandwich and 1 cold sandwich. Plz do better!!! read more

I had been recommended this place, so when I just happened to be walking by one night, I decided to give it a try. hot chicken sandwich: Very good. Decent heat, not overwhelming. I'd definitely recommend it. Vegan cheeseburger: I was really surprised how good this was. You couldn't tell it wasn't meat. The bun is great, good balance of flavors. Fries: Another surprise standout. Different. Overall, the food is excellent. The downsides are: the wait time - it took around 20 mins to get my food. the price - the above 3 items were around $42. while I understand the blaring nondescript heavy metal music is part of the marketing/theme of the place - it got really annoying. They should at least mix in more recognizable songs, bands, etc. Metallica anyone? read more

Fries were undercooked, dry and chewy. Burger was worse than a chain restaurant. I would rather eat a Dennis cheeseburger than a $20 burger with no fries and no drink. The meat is dry, cheese is cheap and stringy. Lemonade was somehow still warm despite being half full with ice. This place is the perfect example of aesthetic over quality. read more

Hate Burger - Double NV Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Redlands, California

I absolutely love this place! Best burgers hands down. There's more of a home made taste and feel to things here. This is a walk up order at the window restaurant. There is no lobby, it's located downtown Redlands so you'd have to find a table or bench to sit outside and enjoy your food. (This isn't hard because they're a plenty) The fries have the skin left on them and the burgers are loaded with toppings ie; pickles, onion, lettuce, tomato, and sauce. They offer vegan and non vegan burgers and chicken sandwiches. You can also add honey to the burger or sandwich or choose spicy sauce or non spicy sauce. Unfortunately there are no combos everything has to be ordered separately. Drinks include soda, tea, and milk shakes. (Vegan or non vegan). Online ordering is available and highly recommended due to the popularity of this place. (Place order through menufy) If you walk up and order be prepared to wait 15-20 minutes. *side note the window to place your order is located in an "alley" off 5th street. read more

Honestly, the main reason here is because my husband specifically asked TWICE for no onions on either of our cheeseburgers. We had already decided we were gonna eat elsewhere so it was a to go order or else we would have taken them back. Also the wait was around 15-20 minutes and there was only one order ahead of us. We really wanted to like this place to. :-/ read more

Located at the widest point in Orange Street Alley, this establishment is a walk-up to order at a window outside with no lobby, where my partner, his family and I came for lunch as recommended by the graduate in May. Hate Burger does have windows facing State Street, but that's just their kitchen. It's cool to see how your orders are being made. Their menu is simple, offering both meat and vegetarian burger options. Unfortunately, there are no combos; everything has to be ordered separately. We decided on a vegan spicy burger, a spicy burger, a regular cheeseburger, and a regular hamburger. The vegan burger is a vegetarian burger. These were simple, cooked to perfection, and had the right amount of lettuce, tomato, and onions on a brioche bun. It does take a while for our food to come out, and that is because it is being cooked fresh. There were 11 barstools under a covered retractable awning where one could enjoy their meal. The patties were good size, and the burger itself is pretty filling but a little pricey. The fries with the skins left on them were served crispy, hot, and fresh. The staff was friendly. It was a solid meal, and if you are in the area, give it a try. read more

My friends and I went here last week and the food was fantastic as usual, ESPECIALLY the "hate sauce." The service was excellent as everything was brought out organized and in a timely manner. The staff frequently checked in on us, and I also appreciated the rock music! 10/10 would recommend this place, especially for vegetarians like me! read more

ordered a single smash burger (add tomato + onion), a double smash burger (no pickles, add tomato), regular fries with cajun seasoning & a vanilla shake for $40 we waited about 15 mins and our burgers came out with none of the requested so we sent them back. about 10 mins later our burgers came back with the wrong additions & the fries were not cooked all the way. we sent the burgers & fries back for the second time, and waited about 20 more minutes for our food before giving up and requesting a refund. unfortunately would not recommend hate burger to anyone :/ read more

15 minutes (with no one ahead of me) and $11 ($10.80 but who's counting) for a fist sized, disappointing spicy chicken sandwich. The chicken was dry, the portion was small, and there was nowhere to sit. I don't mind eating outdoors, but at least give me somewhere to sit. The one positive thing I can say is that the spicy sauce was pretty good. Other than that, I would have been happier if I got a $3.99 spicy chicken sandwich from Popeye's. read more
