Hunter's House did an amazing job! The hamburgers and cheeseburgers were cooked perfectly and full of flavor, and the fries were a great side to complete the meal. Everything was fresh and satisfying. They currently have a small seating area available to dine in while they operate out of a temporary setup, with their permanent building scheduled to open in April. Even in the temporary space, the experience was excellent. The young lady who took our order was incredibly kind and welcoming, which really stood out. Great food, friendly service, and definitely worth stopping by--I'm looking forward to visiting again once the full location opens. read more

I had the recommendation to grab a bite here when I was in town from a few people, and to stop by Greene's by some others. Hunter House was the better of the two for me on this day. The buildings that house both Hunter house, and Greene's almost look identical, as do the small counters, griddles up front. Quick, friendly service, quick friendly food delivery, I would easily go back! read more

Hunter House doesn't really need a review but my husband and I are going around to the different slider places to try and compare. Starting with Hunter House probably set the bar really high. Everything was fresh and tasted amazing with great service. Hopefully things will be just as good in their new location. read more

My husband & I have frequented Woodward for years & we occasionally stop in Hunter House to grab some food. We were at home & decided to drive down for some burgers. They are in the process of opening their new location, so the inside is not open yet. There's a heated white tent out front where they take your order & then someone brings your food into the tent once it's ready. They do have 2 pretty big picnic style tables in there as well. We had our 5.5 month old with us, so we decided to stay in the tent & eat. My husband ordered their double cheeseburger with no onions & a vanilla shake, I ordered the Robcat Burger & then we both got an order of Mals Pals. The food came out pretty quickly & was good. I only gave 4 stars because I do feel like the burgers are priced a little higher than they should be when compared to places like Teleway which is basically the same food but cheaper. Overall, Hunter House is always a solid choice when cruising Woodward! read more

The best of the best sliders ever! My fav place to eat after a night out or any night for that matter. Service is quick and I love sitting at the counter facing Woodward to stare at people and cars going by. Can't go wrong with 2 double doubles and fries. Unless you're eating with more than 3 people, a small fry is sufficient. Whoever ate 5 whole onions on one burger... wtf is wrong with you but yum either way read more

Food is delicious as always, but the young lady taking the food order has a horrible attitude. She is not friendly at all. I came and ordered a bunch of food while eating a bunch of consumers were ordering takeouts while trying to converse with her and she completely just shut every single one of them down. Made me feel very uncomfortable. read more

I just left Better Burgers down the street from here. I got One hamburger there and it was $5! Just a simple slider. So I came down the street to the previous occupants of that place and ordered 2 more burgers because I was still hungry! The burgers at Hunter House are $2.80 each. I just ate them and they are just as good as Better Burgers and I didn't get ripped off. I hope this new Hunter House location thrives and Better Burgers lowers their prices or goes away. There is no way that price point is sustainable. Thank You Hunter House! I will be back! read more

4/18/26: picked up 2 burgers and a fry on way home. Fries were not salted, totally bland. Burgers meat patty was more than white castle meat, but not flavor enhanced, which I prefer. Bun size was no larger that White Castle. The burger was not flavor enhanced, and so It did not meet my satisfaction. I won't be back! read more

Classic, comfortable, and affordable Driving up to Hunter House, you get the feel of nostalgia. Quaint parking lot, all white building, and billowing smoke mixed with that unmistakable aroma of burgers on the grill. The inside looks almost unchanged from the '50s with the stainless steel lunch counter-tops, spinning stools, and open concept so you could see the magic happen. The staff had great comradery and chatter behind the counter making it a jovial and lively feel. Meanwhile, a constant stream of patrons, young and old, came by both the walk-up to-go window and dine-in options to feast. The burgers themselves: Excellent. Great cheese melt. The buns are not too cakey and absorb the grease without becoming the central part of the eating. And the burger was steeped in the grease of the hundred or so patties that came before it- all of this culminating in a scrumptious and pleasant experience. read more

Never been to Hunter House before but wanted to try it and the St Brown meal. Take out only at the new location. I heard they're doing construction and plan to open in the spring. Order in the little heated tent, 2 tables set up inside to eat at if you want. Food came out quick and was yummy. read more

Hunter House moved into the KFC location half-mile down the road and their tasty burgers just dropped from a 5-star to 1-star. DISAPPOINTING. Burgers are not wrapped individudally, they're place in a styrofoam box along with fries that were not for the same person. Came home and had to separate the items and kids didn't eat their cuz the items they orded were mixed with their sibling's choices. HUNTER HOUSE IS NOT THE SAME : ( READ YOUR RECEIPT -- AUTOMATIC 20% TIP -- always tip and we ending up tipping 40% because of the chaos in the tent and the girl at table never pointed this out -- on top of the not-same-Hunter-House-food -- just an insult after injury -- first it stung but then realized the kids that are working there deserve it :) read more

Was in the area and figured stop in and get a couple sliders, chili fries and a strawberry shake. The sliders were good as usual nicely grilled onions and crisp pickles on the side. The chili fries were fantastic, fries were not soggy and the chili was not spicy at all but very good. The shake was good nice creamy. Friendly hard working staff. Was very busy and they were on top of everything. The place was clean for how busy they were. read more

Always Hott n tasty burgers with grilled onions n sliced pickles.....Awesome service.... But you need more then one n good priced..!!!$

I used to walk into Hunter House and feel the spirit of burger greatness wash over me--grease in the air, onions sizzling, the kind of ambiance that whispered, "Your cardiologist will judge you, but it's worth it." But after the move? Buddy... that spirit didn't move with them. It stayed behind like a confused house cat waiting by the old door. The new location feels like someone tried to rebuild the original from memory after getting bonked on the head with a frozen patty. The burgers taste like they're homesick. The grill looks like it misses its old ZIP code. Even the onions seem depressed--like they know they once had a purpose and now they're just... sautéed nostalgia. I'll still stop by when I'm in the neighborhood--just to pay my respects. read more

The shake was the standout of my order; however, the burger was quite disappointing, with barely any meat at all. The frozen string fries were labeled as a large size, but they certainly didn't seem like it and were served cold. I'm honestly surprised this place has managed to stay in business for so long with such low standards. If you want to keep customers, it's time to add some actual meat to your smash burgers! read more

I was in Birmingham for work and was asking around for a quick and delicious lunch. A FedEx employee overheard me and immediately said "hunter house". The sheer level of confidence gave me no choice. Not knowing what to expect, I was pleasantly surprised when I got there. Super small dinner style smash burgers with a line outside on a Tuesday! I got two smash burgers with bacon, some fries, and a coke... the staff was amazing, the food was good, and the price was even better - $11!!! Definitely worth a stop if you are in Birmingham, MI! read more

Might be one of the best burgers in the world. Classic old school flavor, toppings are always perfect. My favorite is a double cheeseburger with jalapeños. The chili cheese fries and shakes are killer too. It's hard not to come back to this place every week. Don't be put off by the long wait times. Patience is a virtue for a reason and these burgers are well worth the wait. I would highly recommend getting three sliders and fries. More than enough food and just enough to stop you from going back for seconds. This place is seriously good! If you don't like this place you should probably start looking inward. There's a reason it's been here for so long. Maybe try asking yourself "Do I deserve food this good?" read more

This has been my favorite restaurant since I was like 3 years old. I love this place, and have so many memories associated with it. I may have some bias, but I've never tasted a better burger than the ones I get here. Sad to see the old location close, but I'm exited to see how the new location will look once it fully opens! read more

They were not even busy but the employees were telling everyone it would be like 30-35 minutes wait. The owner is losing a lot of business read more

I grew up with Hunter House and coming back after many years away, it was exactly as I had left it. This is one of those places where you get what you order and it's just good - no frills. Two smash burger sliders and a side of fries are my go to. I love the shoestring fries - they were cooked to perfection - just slightly crispy on the edges. Inside is very crowded and it felt a little chaotic. It's far too cold to sit inside and the door slams itself shut SO LOUDLY any time anyone comes in or out that you can't have a conversation with anyone sitting next to you. That being said, I wish there was more outdoor seating. read more

Really great sliders. Can be a wait since they are made to order ( which is terrific.). If you like sliders with grilled onions, this is the place! read more

The OG slider. Go to Hunter House! Support small local family business and the American dream!

not a big fan, I like Green, Bates, all of them Hunter house probably my least favorite of these. Carry out takes forever 15 minutes to cook, 1/8 oz of meat ? not for sure I'd guess these are by far the most expensive of them all read more

Double check orders. Just got screwed out of an order of fries and onion rings. Great they will credit it but bad service to forget

Let me start by saying, I approach this review with a great deal of shame. Despite having grown up 4 miles south of Hunter House and having attended high school a couple miles away, today was my first trip to hunter house.....I just turned 48. I have been seriously sleeping on HH. Let me explain why. When I first learned about HH in the 1990's it was (disgustingly inaccurately) described as a place similar to White Castle. Since I find White Castle inedible, I immediately dismissed HH as a place I wanted to try. Thank goodness for Andy Issac on Twitter. I noticed a few of his tweets that included pictures and thought to myself, those burgers look nothing like White Castle! Today I finally was able to try them for myself. The place was amazing. First I love the vibe of the place. Lunch counters are some of my favorites and this is a good one. The burgers were beautiful...a nice crispy smashed burger with delicious crispy onions throughout. The sides were fantastic as well. Can't want to go back for more. read more

This place is awesome I come here all the time with my family the foods great and the prices are low

Just a good diner along Woodward to get sliders, fries and a shake. Has been here my whole life and always served great smashed burgers and the chocolate milkshakes are the best! This place pumps out food and provides great service, but during the Woodward cruise be prepared, this place is packed! Love that they've kept the old diner style and cool vintage car photos up! read more

There is no way you can be in the area and not stop in for a burger. The parking lot is small and one direction so make it count when you park. No steps to enter and it's seat yourself. I like the stools at the bar. The restaurant smells wonderful of French fries, fresh burgers, and onion rings. Plates are clattering, money is exchanging and people enjoying their meal. Definitely hipster vibe for a Wednesday night. read more

Got a double cheeseburger. It was cheap, and patties were truly small. So small and thin, you could barely see them in the photo I posted. Maybe that's the goal. But they weren't incredibly tasty or juicy either. Service was incredibly slow - 10 + minutes for a very average burger. Peppers added were way too spicy I had to take them out. Place did not live up to the hype. read more

Was waiting for the wife to get a procedure done so I went exploring the hood and see this place saying servicing since 1952 so I had to try it if they been going strong that long!! It's definitely a play off white castles but they are smashed burgers instead of patties . Same concept with pickles and grilled onions. They are also sliders as well. We got the double cheeseburgers and also the fizzy fries It came with bacon, ranch, cheese on them . I have to say pretty good they didn't chince on the items. We also got a vanilla malt to wash it all down. I like the way it looked inside old school diner vibes. They even served the burgers on a real plate. Little pricey but again I guess it's the experience to try something new when you don't live in the area . But they were busy !! If in the area give it a try sorry forgot to take pics but there are pic on their posts . read more

Great food. Unfortunately the timing is always off if they say 20 mins that typically means 30-35. Even ordering ahead by 1.5 hours I still didn't get my order until 10 minutes later than I was told when I ordered. Friendly staff and great food make up for the added time waiting. read more

Thank you Snyders! J. Snyder is the best she was very kind and being a full house she still gave me great service and accurate wait time. Me, being from California, this was my first slider I was informed of the size. $2.25 a burger!?! So, I got a double w/ small fry. (+jalapeño) Omg Michigan!?! 10/10 bites tasty deliciousness the grilled onion the pickles. There are seasonings available I sat at the counter (salt pepper & a Cajun? I assume for fries) the fries were plenty so I took some to go. Delicious classic spot. Must try. I spoke with a local who says she has been eating there for many years! She was very kind and this is something, an experience you don't really get in many other places. Can't wait to be back! read more

Coming from Detroit and the Metro area, but you wouldn't think Birmingham would have such delicious burgers. They're as good as all the competitors from Detroit to Warren, they do it right. Everybody in the staff is so accommodating and the service is very friendly., it's small inside, but you'll definitely enjoy your meal read more

Hard to drive by and not stop for a couple. Just a taste! Amazing smash burger sliders can be had here. They have a small takeout window or you can dine inside. If you do go in be sure to read some of the names of the hero's on the walls who have consumed an un fathomable number of sliders or double sliders. We salute you! Service is always quick, if you don't want to wait, call and order ahead. read more
