Pretty good place. It's right next to the hotel which is very convenient. The food was pretty good. Burgers are worth it. They're homemade chips that they serve are great, but I would recommend you letting them know that you want them well done. A lot of times the potatoes are half cooked. Prices can get a little out of hand read more

Great burger. Nice staff & customers. Amazing beer selection. Reasonable prices. What more could you ask for?

Friendly and outgoing staff right from the start. It was a slow night so they made sure I felt welcomed and at home. Chicken burger was pretty standard and tasty. Coleslaw was good, not over dressed. Glad that they had a cider on tap for us non beer drinkers. read more

JL Beers is a nice place to enjoy a burger, fries & a beer. The place has a very strict policy of NO KIDS. The beers are delightful. The place is a little noisy and small. You do seat yourself. The service is quick. We got our food within 15 minutes. The food was good. Would recommend the cajun fries & the parmesan fries. The bathrooms are located at the end of the restaurant. read more

We stayed in the hotel across the street while on vacation and the lady that checked us in suggested we eat here. Great advice! The staff was friendly and fun. The beers cold and the burgers wonderful! We even got postcards to send out! I always send out postcards on vacation so that worked out great! read more

JL Beers Minot - Smokey Beer Cheese BBQ Burger. - Bars Near Me - Minot, North Dakota

Cool atmosphere. Small space, many varieties of beer. They offer soda, and other non- alcoholic beverages. They have fresh peanut butter, and fresh cut fries made to order. SO GOOD. They offer dips for fries/chips and they are all so good! read more

This is an unexpected place in a somewhat him location. A crossroads off US2 next to an economy hotel. But what a gem! This place does 3 things only. Burgers. Fries. Beer. This specializing and simplification deserves then well. They have a long wall of taps. That's the virtue of this place. A huge draft selection. I'm a Pacific Northwest IPA guy and they had plenty for me. Burgers are good. Nothing particularly outstanding about them, but that's okay. They're solid. The beer is the thing. read more

JL burger with loaded fries with extra cheese is my go too. Every time I'm back in town this is it. (choose and read the menus) but yes will eat here everytime I'm in town. read more

Good food. Good beer. Love the flights. Cool place to watch the games and grab some drinks with friends

Love the burgers and I give it 5 stars for that but I'm not much of a bar type person. If you are looking for sports, beer, food then this is the place. However there is to go! read more

Pretty good spot that was near where I was staying. Pretty solid food. Good beer selection.

Great food and many beers to choose from good location easy to find. Auto grilling burgers always them same auto fryer fries never burn

Omg!!! Absolutely out of this world!!!! Amazing beer and the best burger and fries we've ever had!!! And the $$ was so great!!! Will definitely be going back and recommending this place to EVERYONE!!! Supper great!!!! read more

Came here today while traveling to the job. Stopped in and had a Cajun burger and chips. It was great, had a cold root beer on draft. It was really cold and good. The team member who waited on me has plenty of smiles. Plenty of draft beer and cold root beer. As always the inside was clean and plenty of locals here. I will come back again. read more

Reliably good burgers, whether it's in the restaurant or for takeout. Fries are skinny-style, which I'm usually iffy on but these ones are SO good, perfectly salted and not over done. read more

Quick service and good sides. I always get one of two hamburgers and my husband always gets the Slawsome burger. The food is made real fast (yes frozen burger patties) but they are good. You can't forget to get the chips though. There's a variety of flavors to choose from and are perfectly paired with a beer cheese or fun jalapeño ranch sauce. The beer menu is never lacking so we live to come after a long day of hunting. With COVID we haven't been there to eat in awhile since it's a very small establishment but the takeout is easy peasy. read more

North Dakota Tap Takeover! Great prices on great brews. We had the opportunity to stop in and try several new beers on tap. I am a huge fan of sours and tarts. I was ecstatic to see there were several such options and tried 3 of them. All on point. Of course, we also needed something solid in our bellies. I opted for the buffalo blue fries and they were flexible enough to crumble my burger patty over the fries, as I didn't want an actual burger. I was also charged just the price of adding an extra patty to a burger. Win! The ratio was perfect and it really hit the spot. Pricing is good and beer choices were plentiful. read more

Service was good and the staff was friendly and helpful. Food tasted great and was served quickly.

Great spot for a burger and some fries in Minot! The inside is really new and trendy. They have postcards on the table so you can send a note home to your family. We always like to come here when we fly into Minot because it's not too far from the airport and we can get a good meal before we have to get on the road. From what I remember, it's a little tight inside, meaning not a ton of room for tables and seating. You can easily find seating for a group of 4-6, but any larger than that you might have some trouble. read more

Fries are not crispy. There's more like thick cut hash browns drenched in oil and sprinkled with huge chunks of salt. The cheese on the burger definitely was so gooey as to almost be off the taste and consistency of nacho cheese. Service was good but the food left me with a belly ache for the following few hours. read more

The burgers are really delicious. I really loved the vegetarian burger. The fries are not the best. The service was very good. We ate in the outdoor dining area which was very nice and dog friendly. Great beer and burgers but skip the fries! read more

Fun place. Great staff. Awesome burgers. This place was hopping. Wait staff was very friendly. Love that. I had the Mt Mushmore burger and hand cut fries. My belly was so happy. This is kinda of a chain but only in ND. read more

Good burgers but I don't eat meet. And they don't have any ice for drinks. Last time I ordered a veggie burger and they brought out real meat patty. I lost trust after that read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants. I eat here every week. I like the variety of specialty burgers and the assortment of beers. It's a cozy vibe and the staff are knowledgeable on the menu. The bacon jam and Cole slaw burger are out of this world! However, a lot of times when I go, the loaded fries are over salted and the bacon jam burger doesn't have much bacon jam so it's dryyyyy. The beer cheese was heated up so hot that it melted the plastic lid. Also, both my husband and I found dog hair on our food. I'll continue to eat here because I'm addicted and not ready to kick the weekly habit but it would be nice if they could have more attention to detail and all their chefs were consistent on how things are supposed to be prepared. read more

Great tasting beer. Fast service. Super good burgers and cheesy fries. Clean environment. Open seating and when you walk-in, you are encouraged to find a place to sit wherever you can. Definitely one of my favorite places to eat and drink while visiting Minot. read more

This place is very high energy and has such an amazing vibe. I can honestly say I've never seen a place like this before where you can basically have your choice of beer canned. Such a cool concept, and trust me they have way more than enough different beers that you will definitely find something that would satisfy even the most novice beer drinker. Between the beers, the great and friendly (not to mention knowledgeable) staff, and the amazing food you can NOT go wrong with giving this place a try. It was truly a great and DELICIOUS experience. read more

JL Beers Minot - Not a Nutter Burger, Buffalo chips, and a tap crowler of root beer. Delicious! - Bars Near Me - Minot, North Dakota

Great Food. Extensive beer list. Seating can be difficult, so take out options are often the way to go.

my and my husband went there craving a real good burger for lunch. it was underwhelming. when the bun is bigger than the patty, it's disappointing. I had the mushroom burger, and there were some mushrooms tucked in under the cheese. this was nothing special, I'm afraid. the garlic parmesean fries were very good. a dip is also included, so I got the ranch. my husband ordered a cheese burger again, the bun was bigger than the patty. disappointing. if you prefer a bready burger, this is the place. he got the sea salt fries with Cajun dip and those were good. I love supporting local restaurants, but we will not be going back. when you are craving a good juicy cheeseburger, you know what you want and what to expect. read more

This is the best burger joint around, by far! They have the most amazing, cut in front of you and super tasty. The Cajun flavored fries with the Cajun lime dipping sauce, is my favorite, so far. Where else can you get a rad, loaded double burger for $7.29? Nowhere. That's where. read more

Can't decide what makes the place my favorite go to in Minot as I'm torn between the atmosphere and the delicious food. Stationed here a little over a year and this place never fails to meet expectations. Servers are always friendly and spot on and the food is always fresh and flavorful. The rotating beer options is fun but sometimes your favorite beer won't be on tap. Hands down suggest the peanut butter beer, the jalapeño chicken sandwich and their house made chips with a side of ranch. Wish we could take this place with us when we leave here. read more

Great selection of good beers. Burger and fries hit the spot! Had a Surley Brewing company beer and the classic cheeseburger.

5 stars for the awesome cheeseburger and fries... and one star taken away because it irritates me when a business with a gazillion beers on tap (that I don't want to drink btw) can't manage to keep a few ice cubes on hand ("We NEVER have ice!") for guests who want a Coca Cola on ice with a burger instead of beer. I know a Coke with a burger is a crazy combo, call me a maverick... : / So the good part... THE BURGER WAS AWESOME!! I went with the Classic Cheeseburger, kind of a boring option to some but I don't like to stray too far from tradition when it comes to my burgers. The burger and fries were cooked to perfection. Even if you're not a beer drinker I'd encourage you to try their burgers, just pack along a few ice cubes, lolz. Absolutely deelish! read more

Food and beer was very tasty. Burger was cooked perfectly. Waitress was on point. Good value for what I got.

Walked into this bar with very low expectations while visiting and left fairly well pleased. I wish I had more on my mind than just having a few beers to offer y'all a better review of the joint. I was up north visiting from Arizona and wanted to get a feel for the local ND craft beer scene. There was not a large selection on hand, which was surprising to me. The offered me a beer called London Fog, which was a local beer, and it changed my life. London Fog was a spin on a cream soda tasting beer and it was glorious. From the first sip to the last drop I was singing praise and writing hymnals to the epic flavor and finish of this ever so delicately brewed masterpiece. I must come back and when I do, best believe I will have a London Fog induced review for you! read more

June 16, 2015 Tuesday at 11:30 AM for lunch 1 Adult Atmosphere - 5 stars Food - 5 stars Service - 5 stars Background - Getting my beer on! Atmosphere - A simple place with a long bar and a half a dozen or so tables to sit at. The kitchen is right there behind the bar so you can watch everything, from them cutting the potatoes into chips or fries to grilling the burgers. Food Drinks - I had two different North Dakota brown ales. I also had a sample of Summit's Hop Silo. They have a lot of taps and the beer menu is printed weekly but has stamps indicating which ones have been tapped out. The beers are organized by style which I like. They also have canned and bottled beers. Food - Burgers are the main food items, they have about 6 types to order but you can add a ton of other things to ones on the menu. I had the philly burger. The burger was moist and the peppers gave it a nice pop. Service - I sat at the bar and my bartender was excellent, my beers never went try before she was checking to see if I needed another one. The cook even came by to make sure my burger was good. Future - Please. read more

So during this COVID-19 time, I am home from Illinois to visit my elderly parents. They decided they wanted burgers and I always wanted to try this place. Well, I guess COVID doesn't exist here as the bar was packed, the restaurant as well. No social distancing and no face masks anywhere. I was the only one wearing a face mask, the staff weren't even wearing them. I was so disappointed!!! Tried to get my food as quickly as possible and leave. I wiped everything down with alcohol wipes in the car. And I am worried about my parents. My mom is on hospice care and this was NOT what I needed or expected. I won't be back again, ever. What a blatant disregard for human life in general... read more
