Best Burgers , Fries and onion rings in town! Great service ! The owner makes you feel welcome !

Not much to say. This place has been around for a long time. Currently was purchased by a new owner. Very limited menu. I had a hamburger and onion rings. I asked for grilled onions on my hamburger and they said they do not offer them but I could have raw onion and pickles. The onion rings were dried out and may have been frozen? I would not order the onion rings. High priced for the area. Packed full of regular customers. There are good hamburgers all over metro Detroit for half the price. I will not be returning anytime soon. But it was a good place to try once. Cash Only - No Credit Cards. read more

I have no idea what to say other than that I have been coming here for years, with great burgers and great staff. It is a super lovely hole in the wall if you have not been hear, you are missing out. read more

This place has been on my list for a while now, and my boyfriend and I finally went there tonight. He had been before, since he lives downriver, but I had not. I won't repeat what the other reviewers have said, but there are no menus, and you pay at the bar after you eat so it's on the honor system. For two burgers (no cheese), onion rings to split, and two Cokes, it was $23.50, which is reasonable. They have pickles on the table which was awesome because I love pickles; this way you can put as many as you want on it. They will bring you raw onion for your burger but be aware that they do not have tomatoes. They also have ketchup and mustard at the table. The ladies room was very clean although very dated. The men's room is actually located near the entrance and the ladies room is located on the North side of the building, closest to the parking lot. I'm taking away a star because they don't have tap water, which always annoys me (only bottled). If you order a soda they'll bring it in a can, with a glass and some ice, which was fine. I thought the onion rings were fantastic and the burger was good but not worth the hype. Other reviewers have said that they are hand-shaped patties, but to me they did not look like that. I would come back here when in the area, mostly for those fantastic onion rings, but I probably would head to Brome to get a "bougie" burger instead of to Miller's. read more

Miller's Bar - Burger, no cheese - Burgers Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

See all

Miller's Bar us an iconic landmark in Dearborn, Michigan and a staple of the community since 1941. The bar is the very definition of old-school neighborhood bar, a place where people can go and unwind with a cold beverage and perhaps one of their highly touted hamburgers. These burgers also embrace the old-school approach. Don't expect a plethora of inventive toppings for their burgers, Miller's Bar is not that kind of joint. Also, don't expect a plate. It will come on wax paper with very few toppings offered. But with burgers this good, you don't want to mask the flavor with toppings. Service is good, but keep in mind it is a neighborhood bar, not a fine dining establishment. Miller's Bar has been here for over eighty years, that in itself is a testament and an accomplishment. Come grab a drink and a burger, enjoy what generations in this community have enjoyed. You will be better off from this experience. read more

It really pains me to write this review. For decades we've been going to Miller's. The bar burgers were the best. It had been years since I've been there. The only thing I can say is, "Things have really changed", and not in a good way. 4 burgers, 3 fries and 3 cokes - $70. WoW The burger patty's looked uniform and pre-frozen. They were cooked to order but overall they were tasteless. They were dripping grease. Just not the same. It's a shame. Too many of the great old places are gone. This will be one of them if it keeps going. read more

I've been coming to Miller's for about 50 years. Today was the worst experience ever. It was busy and the waitress who was busting her hump to take care of the entire dining room was clearly overwhelmed. It took us almost 40 minutes to get drinks, and that's Coke or Vernors. Food did not come out until an hour and 15 minutes after we arrived. We noticed several other tables that came in after us received their food first, extremely poor management. The burger is nothing like I remember. Dried out and tasteless. The bun was nothing special. Fries were OK, onion rings were outstanding. No effort was made to comp us for the poor service, which I repeat was not the fault of the waitress. She's our favorite. I caught the eye of the owner and told him the first line in this review. He looked frustrated as he started to say he was sorry, but by then I had departed. Truly disappointing as I always make an effort to come here when returning to Michigan to visit family. I would seriously question coming here again, especially anytime close to the lunch hour. You might think this is a one time occurrence, but my family had a very similar experience about a month ago. read more

Simplicity at it's finest! If your looking for a burger joint don't skip this place. They don't do much other than burgers but they do them right. Fries and onion rings are spot on as well. Only downfall would be no ranch but that is hardly a complaint. Belly up to the bar and enjoy the staff. Can't wait to go back. If your wondering yes it's just like that SNL skit.

Amazing food and great customer service. This place has been around for 85 years and nothing has changed. That's the way it should be. They have four things on the menu. You can choose a grilled cheese or burger or chicken fingers. Enjoy it. read more

First time here. My neighbor has been recommending this place to me to give it a try. I tried the burger and onion rings. The burgers reminded me of my Army day's eating in the dining facility. It was the same exact burger. I enjoy the food but it was your typical burger. I think everyone comes here mostly for the bar and drinks. The service was great too. But they are only taking cash, which I never have. But there is an ATM located there. read more

The Miller family would be proud. The new owners have spiffed everything up. The food really was top notch.... Same deal as before: simple menu, wax paper plates, honor system to pay at the bar. A great, unique Dearborn institution lives on. The staff and executive manager Gary Christmas help make this place great. Sublime. read more

Back after 18 years in Missouri. Had to visit Miller's Bar. 4 beers and two cheeseburgers with velveeta cheese, yes please. Jeff the bartender,( who has been working there for over 40 years) suggested ordering the burger how you order your steak, so medium rare. Before we could drink a few sips, the burgers and fries and onion rings arrived. Do not review this place as though it is a 5 star restaurant. It's plainly stated, burgers, grilled cheese ect. We got exactly what we ordered and expected, a big, juicy, cheesy burger. You can get velveeta or Swiss cheese, pickle and onion. They still do the honor system you tell them what you ordered. Cash only. We just wish it was closer to us! read more

I cannot say enough about Millers Bar. The burgers are perfect! The beer is great, a few years ago I noticed that the burgers were falling into a mediocre mode, when I revisited it a year ago I realized that the burgers tasted like they did ten years ago! That was too good to be true, and I am a loyal customer ever since!!! I heard that they have been purchased by someone from the original owners all I can say is keep up the good work! As usual, the bar setting is very comfortable and the service is excellent! read more

Burgers are AMAZING!!! Been coming here for 20+ years. Old school place that always delivers an awesome burger. Best pickles and great onion rings too read more

Miller's Bar - Burgers Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

Such a bummer to write this one, but this place has changed. The burgers are just different and not the same--mediocre at best. The meat itself doesn't seem fresh. Should have known when the place as half full, at lunchtime, during homecoming weekend. $15 for a burger and fries. You're better off going down to Ford's Garage. read more

I will never forget my first visit here. I made the grave mistake of asking at the bar when I ordered my burger for some miscellaneous veggies on top of my burger. The woman behind the bar told me the only veggies I could get on my cheese burger would be raw onions and pickles. Okay. I got a cheeseburger with raw mojos to have something more than just the meat and American cheese slice. Your burger and fries or onion rings come out on paper tissues to your table. The mustard and ketchup are the two condiments, pickles too. You pay your bill at the end, it's on the honor system. It has a very local neighborhood bar feel here, dark, dank and the stale stench of smokes from the decades of when smoking was allowed inside bars, remember those days? read more

Not what it use to be. Had heard they changed hands. Ordered medium received very rare. Used to be as hash style burger now look liked preformed possibly frozen patty. Also very pricey for what it is. Service lacklust at best. read more

I don't know man....not the same since it got sold off....the burgers are an ounce less but about $3-4.00 more than it used to be and they added double burgers....so not 1lb of burger for $20.00.....and a ridiculously priced grilled cheese which is a new menu item....the fries and ring are also smaller than it used to be. And now offer an un advertised pricing handful of simple deli sandwiches that looked too small for any serious sandwhich maker or consumer to care for. Plus there are like 9 deli/ sandwhich shops withing MAYBE a quarter mile of the place.....beer, for its petite size ( same size as their sodas) is laughable, but that's always been the case....they might do better as a B.Y.O.B joint read more

Don't. Do not. I drove 25 minutes to get there after hearing about it for a decade, and you absolutely should not do that. You shouldn't even drive 5 minutes to get there. Just don't go there. Yes, I know, you've heard foreeeever that Miller's is a great burger; it's included on every Best Burgers list you've ever read. This is absolutely NOT "the best burger in Metro Detroit"; it's not even better than fast food burgers, much less better than other restaurants. It is a good-sized but entirely tasteless $10 puck of beef, and the "fresh never frozen" boast does absolutely diddly-squat to improve it. My "medium" burger was gray on the outside but so cool and red throughout the entire center that I spent three full bites' worth of time being concerned that I shouldn't be eating this before deciding it was probably fine and if it wasn't, it was too late anyway. I had to put salt on the burger because it obviously had no seasoning in or on the meat. What the hell? I also had to put salt on the fries, which were cooked well enough but were similarly tasteless; good texture but uninteresting and certainly not good enough to be $4.75. The $5 onion rings were the only actually good thing. Hearty, crunchy breading (not battered), cooked through without being burnt, and a big enough serving to justify the price. The $3.25 shell of Miller would have been fine if their tap lines had been cleaned at any point since Watergate, but I don't believe they have. It was pretty bad. (Also, you don't get to know any of the prices before you order. Given that it's cash-only, multiple people trying to pay their bill at the register next to my seat at the bar were unhappy to learn how high their bill actually was.) I have absolutely no idea what traumatic brain injury has been collectively suffered by all the people who say this is a good burger, much less "the best burger in metro Detroit", but to them I say: absolutely not. Maybe this was the best Detroit could come up with in 1972, but today it is the worst burger I've had anywhere in the Eastern Time Zone. read more

1 hamburger 1chicken sandwich 1 fry 1onion rings 2 beers $40+Tip Very Decent food. No plates or silverware (my spouse received a plastic fork and knife). No explanation of charges? Cash only? No music. No pool table. I walked out feeling fleeced. read more

Ate there yesterday and sadly it was not at all as I remember. We've been going to Miller's bar for decades and has been such a disappointment the last 2 times there. The hamburger patties are thicker than I remember, way overcooked (asked for medium) and were very dry. Sadly, we will no longer go back read more

New owner has not changed the quality of food. The burgers are large and tastefully juicy. Fries served hot as well as onion rings having a tasty crunchy batter to accompany a perfect burger. Staff of very friendly servers, especially Lyne who has been there for years. Nice to continue with welcoming and familiar staff. I like that the friendly owner pitches in to help and actually stops at the table to greet customers. The bar is very clean and well lighted. The same honor system to pay the bill. A few extra changes - bar no longer charge extra for water. Now open at noon on Sundays, which is awesome. We're so glad Miller's remains in Dearborn serving the best burger they're known for. read more

As always they never disappoint, there is a reason this place is a hit considering their menu is very limited.... Best burgers ever!!!!

An absolute staple. Best burger around period. Old school. Don't mess with excellence. If you're upset about the limited menu you do not understand timeless classic American pleasures. Never change Millers. P.s I heard they put in tvs since my last visit and am not thrilled with that. Love stepping back in time and having an old school experience. Everywhere has tvs now and it's nice to have a break from that. read more

Okay. I don't know how I've lived this long without having had a burger at Miller's. There are no frills. It's just a damn good burger. Served on a piece of wax paper. Fries were great, but don't skip the onion rings- you will regret it! This place has the friendliest people working here. Everyone we came across was just so friendly. We came late, and in the middle of the week. It didn't seem too crazy. It's also "covid times" so they might have been limiting capacity. Everyone was wearing masks and gloves. They were serving water bottles instead of glasses of water. Pickles and onions were prepped and stored in individual ziploc baggies so that they weren't out in the open. We felt safe eating out here. This place is definitely worth a visit! read more

Don't serve Guinness if you don't know how to serve it correctly. Had the widget bottle, which is fine. But, they brought it to the table opened and no glass. Waitress didn't know what a pint glass was. Showed us three different glasses before finding one big enough to hold a pint. By then the Guinness had settled in the bottle and it was gross. read more

We walked as we head it was a staple in Dearborn. Service was good. We decided to eat which we hadn't planned. Burger was very good interesting just served on a piece wrap paper only option is pickle and onion. Still good. We tried the onion rings. I did not love them but batter was lite and not greasy which was good read more

I don't really understand the praise over this place? The burgers have absolutely no flavor and the sides are bland. Doesn't taste special at all, You can easily make the same flavor in a air fryer at home read more

Employee yelled at us and I quote "to go to McDonald's if we're pinching Pennies" because we didn't want to pay six dollars for water. You should be ashamed of yourselves for shaming people in this economy. You can't be doing too well either if you feel the need to charge $3 per person for water. I'll never waste my money on your sorry business. read more

Was glad to go get back into Millers Bar after picking up our son at metro! Still my favorite burger in Detroit/Dearborn. Bought the below glass for enjoying a beer & burger at home! read more

I enjoyed have a great burger. This brought back so many memories from my youth growing up in the 60's... when there was no McD's to quickly run to.... Here you sit down and enjoy a Coke And a burger that is super delicious with a large order of fries with your favorite friends... read more

A Dearborn Staple! This is as good as it gets when it comes to no frills 1940's built burger and beer bar. Emphasis on the no frills- no toppings on your burger besides table side pickles and raw onion- no menu besides burgers, onion rings, fries and a few sandwiches like tuna for the vegetarians hanging around carnivores. And the honor system when it comes to paying. A great spot to relax have a beer and a greasy yummy ground round (with cheese for me). Two cheese burgers, generous portions of fries and onion rings and two beers with tip will run you $40 which isn't a bad deal. There's a reason Miller's has been voted time and time again best burger through various publications, some even nationwide and recent! read more

Miller's Bar - Burgers Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

No BS beer, booze and burgers. Recommended to me as a Dearborn institution this bar is home to excellent yet simple hamburgers. There is no muss or fuss, just straight to the point great food and drinks served with excellent service. *I plan to return here because I loved it so much.* It is cash only (atm @ door) so be prepared. They also don't bother to put your order into a POS computer. They go by the honor system so you have to remind them of what you ordered. BURGERS were served with pickles in a bag and onions on a napkin, catsup and mustard. We limed that you could build your own. The cook might have never cooked a well-done burger but it was tasty. Shoestring fries needed salt and were a bit cold. read more

Honestly, hands down the best burger around Dearborn! A true hidden gem--small, intimate bar with a cozy, hole-in-the-wall vibe. If you're a burger lover, this is the spot! read more

Visited recently since the owner changed and wow, what happened? Burger was so dry and the bun was hard. The Millers I knew and loved is long gone. :( read more

Expensive. $22 for cheeseburger, O-rings, 2 cans diet coke. I think bartender Toni ripped me off. Dark. Nothing to brag about.

I used to drive for a limousine company years ago and I picked up the owners and their friends/family for a night out. I never knew how awesome their burgers tasted until that night the owner brought me out a burger to try while I was waiting for them to come out. It was so good I was there new favorite customer after this experience. They were such nice people I appreciate that experience read more
