I'm so grateful that Nation's is there when you need them. This casual place serves the best breakfasts, hamburger and pies. Their outside patio is now open again. I'm here for breakfast today because I wanted a break from home. Food always taste better when someone else cooks for you. Nations is always steady and predictable. That's ok, because during these trying times, it's nice to have a place that's reliable and you can count on. read more

I go here for banana cream pies! Their Ore milkshake is thick, but in my opinion, it nothing different from every other Oreo milkshake. Honestly, I have not tried anything else. read more

Thanks to Doordash they value people they do business with. Nations? fu! I'm PMS ing as i write this so........stay safe y'all read more

Nation's - Onion cream pie with bits of blueberry from mf Nations - Burgers Near Me - Fremont, California

I didn't know that this location moved over a year ago. It used to be across from the Fremont Hub. (Not surprisingly, given how new this location is, the exterior and interior are both nice.) I went here today with my family, my parents, and an uncle (I'm not going to name him, but he was a pest when I was trying to eat). I'm glad that the restaurant we first went to was closed (I also spoke up when my dad suggested another place that I was lukewarm about). Our cashier wasn't very friendly, but he was quick and thorough. He also handled the throng of customers well. (It was so busy initially that we were all spread out.) We sat at two different tables (there were six of us, and most of the tables only seat two). The seating capacity inside is about 30, and the seating capacity outside is about 20. (In general, it was a little hard to move around.) It was a little hard to hear the numbers being called out (the woman spoke quickly and had an accent). Our order was so large that our number was called 3 times (half of our order was ready after only about 5 minutes). Getting a water cup for my dad was kind of an ordeal (the woman that I asked was far away from them, and it was hard to get to the cashier because people kept coming in). My uncle took the initiative and grabbed one from the counter (I couldn't see the cups until some customers cleared out). A woman came around at one point. The tables were bussed effectively (when I went to the Castro Valley location 3 years ago, the tables weren't being bussed at all). For the restroom on the right, the code is 1616 (as of this date). The restroom is big, but it was in need of cleaning. There were also no paper towels. Plastic utensils should be added to the condiment area. We had fountain drinks and iced tea, but coffee is also served here (my wife was tempted to order some). "With a SINGLE PORTION you get: Extra large AA egg, toast, mound of hash-browns, & choice of 2 thick bacon slices, sausage, ham, hamburger, or linguica..." My uncle couldn't believe that he received 6 sausage links (I was given 2 of them- they were tasty, but greasy). He also received a lot of toast (I expected that from my visit to the Castro Valley location). He must have ordered an EXTRA Giant THREE-EGGER (my mom wouldn't let me take the receipt). I was also given 2 pieces of toast, and they were fine with or without jelly. Giant TWO-EGGER: 8/10. My wife liked her meal, and she received a lot of food. Hot Dog ($4.20): 7/10. They're big, but nothing special (I liked them more in the past). I kept thinking of Oscar Mayer hot dogs (this is definitely not a compliment). The hot dogs are also too greasy. I finished mine first in order to be done with it. French Fries: 8/10. We shared a small bag, and they were nicely cooked. They didn't blow me away, but they were pretty good. Bacon Cheeseburger ($8.75): 8/10. My burger was good, but not excellent. It was also too pricey. I hate Miracle Whip (so does my uncle). I would have asked for no mayo had I known what to expect. I received a few strips of bacon. They were meaty and delish. My cheese didn't stand out, but it was fine. My burger was cooked the way I wanted it. Chocolate Crème Pie: 8.25/10. My slice was soft and delicious. It would have just been nice if it was a bit more firm. In general, the pie crusts at Nation's seem a bit underbaked. (My mom thought about ordering a slice of pie, but she wasn't enticed by any of the flavors.) Some areas are kind of cramped, but the shopping center features a fair amount of parking. (My dad honked at some jerk who wouldn't stop when he was backing out. The driver also wanted to speed.) I had to order a lot in order to get full. I also wasn't pleased with everything. Still, this location is more than solid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3p_xAToFzck read more

Been going to Nation's for years. The cooks are always smiling and take the time to say hello. Male cashiers are always as nice as can be. This past Sat I went to get my usual and was surprised by the little girl at the counter . I had to ask her to help me after waiting for 5 minutes. Very rude and a high school attitude. They need to bring the guy's back to the front and put Ms Attitude in the back somewhere. Maybe dumping the trash containers? Burger are tough and so were the fries. Will scout out another place where there is better quality food and less attitude. read more

I can't believe it was my first time trying Nation's Giant Hamburgers. The harvester burger and grilled cheese sandwich seemed to be the only vegetarian options in burgers/sandwiches. I decided to try the harvester burger. The meatless grain and veggie patty was surprisedly quite tasty and impressive. They forgot to not put onions, like I had requested. While the dressing was average, the condiments (especially the honey mustard and barbecue sauce) definitely elevated the taste of the burger. The fries did not disappoint. The french fries were nicely seasoned, slightly crunchy (but soft on the inside), and not greasy. I definitely plan to go back to try their pies! Their lemon meringue pie and chocolate crème pie looked exquisite! Also, I love that you can get breakfast foods all day at Nations! I need to go back to try one of their breakfast platters! Nations makes for a great place to grab a meal of your choice anytime of the day! read more

5 stars for the blueberry cream pie that I always get excited about eating at ungodly hours of the night. Nations is nothing short of simple pleasure. The employees are friendly (shoutout to the older female cashier who's always friendly, even when I call at before closing asking if they have the pie available). Boyfriend enjoys the banana cream pie and the cheesecake there. It's top-notch apparently. Too bad I don't like bananas! Come here for a slice of dessert hearty pie! It'll be waiting for you until midnight. Perfect for a late night snack after you've been holed up in your house all day and need to get out for a drive to remind you of your sanity. Treat yoself! read more

I'm so sad to write this, we've visited 3 times for burgers since July. I kept thinking it was a one off experience. Nope, Something has truly changed. No love or salt added to the patties, they're dry as could be. Produce doesn't seem fresh. The produce is placed on the bottom layer, so bottom bun gets soggy immediately, while the top bun is oddly dry. The cheese is hardly melted. If you ask for pickles, it's now a long thin slice of kosher pickle folded over - no longer a crisp pickle chip. What happened? read more

10/17/20 There is no outdoor seating here currently. They have it all yellow caution taped off. Burgers are still good. Fresh, hot, messy...which is the sign of a good burger. I don't recommend eating in your car like I saw some folks doing. Messy. Messy. We took ours home. Needed a few napkins, but the hamburger with bacon and onion rings hit the spot. Chocolate pie is waiting in the fridge for me. Too full to eat it right now. read more

My friend picked up a lemon cream pie for me, which was DELICIOUS! Definitely unhealthy, but delicious. I personally don't like whipped cream that much so I ended up taking most of it off, but the lemon part was soooo good. It was gelatinous but not super heavy. Only disappointment was that it crumbles so easily. When I was putting a piece on a plate it broke in half :(. read more

No, but I like their burgers and pies, like custard and chocolate cream pies! And their fries and shakes are yummy! Wish they'd come back to SJ. read more

Nation's Giant Hamburgers is located in Fremont. It was Pi Day, and I was looking for a slice of Pie. Luckily Nation's was nearby. The staff was courteous, friendly and attentive as I decided on what Pie to get. I ordered a slice of Banana Cream Pie. It was a quarter slice -- pretty big. It was delicious. I've been here before, and I'll be back for Burgers, Breakfast, and Pie. read more

Been going to Nations for years. Pretty good usually. Ordered a cheeseburger with everything. Usually comes with everything on it, but today no lettuce no onions no tomatoes. They added a ton of ketchup and mustard which is not usually on the cheeseburger. And two slices of cheese that wasn't even fully melted. Disappointing who ever is running this place lately. Also my fries were clearly very old. read more

What you will get here is affordable huge burgers. I felt ambitious and went for the ole burger which comes with green roasted chilis. They use the classic mayo, lettuce, tomatoes and onions. I enjoyed how melted the cheese was on my beef patty and since this was my first time, it could have been a fortunate accident. Expect to get messy as you try to devour this hot good mess. The onions rings were thick and crunchy so no complaints there. Their menu is not extensive which make is easier to concentrate on what they know best. Next time i may just get a side and try one of their enticing pies. Oh and they serve breakfast as well. read more

Amazing burgers and chili and salmon burger and fries. Poor cashier was brand new and got my order wrong, then the manager in the kitchen was rude and defensive but then finally obliged to make it right and even admitted "he's new". Apparently they guy also screwed up another order before mine. Hey manager, don't be a bitch? Train him well or hire smarter? Damn your burgers are good. I'll still come back. Also, high chairs are good and the outdoor seating is great for messy babies. FYI - No changing tables avail! read more

Great foods and service, as always! And, the restaurant is very clean and so are their restrooms. We HIGHLY recommend this place for breakfasts and lunches. Also, their PIES are scrumptious as well. The Sylvia's read more

Love this place. Such a cute environment and I love the little touches of putting flowers on every table. The food is great and very affordable. If you love shakes their oreo shake is amazing!

They moved a few years back, and the new location is a big improvement. Faster service, properly cooked food, much cleaner and better lighting. Breakfast is the way to go - a tasty greasy mess, but that's expected at Nation's. Pies on point as always! read more

Nice customer service. Food is always freshly made, with good ingredients. Tastes like a real burger should. Delicious. Avoid the fast fokd chains--this place is legit good. read more

Great big juicy burger in my humble opinion. My coworker brought me here for lunch and it's quite an experience and the place have the diner vibe to it and this place is historic. Go check it out! read more

Major difference from the old location. The new location has been up for a year and some change and is in a more attractive area. When we went on this particular day, they ran out of burgers around 1PM. Where they do that at? Running out of burgers is obviously bad management not reviewing inventory. Thankfully before we walked out the door the burgers arrived, so the freshness was on point with all the ingredients. We ordered a cheeseburger and chicken sandwich, the fries were just okay. read more

Went Sunday7:00. Ordered 2 classic hamburgers. Waited 25 minutes. Noticed several customers picked up their orders. Few minutes later 3 more customers picked up their orders also. Went to check on my order. The employee said it's cooking now. The floor was dirty. The hamburgers were cold. It's was sitting there all this time. Poor service, dirty floors. Would u go back? read more

The banana cream pie is legit! At 11:55am the restaurant was pretty dead. I saw a lot of people eating the breakfast plates. May have to give them a whirl. It wasn't too expensive at all from the menu board. I love love love their banana cream Pie at $4.25 a slice you get a huge heaping of banana filled custard and loads of whip cream. If you haven't tried them, you are doing yourself a huge disservice! Go now! read more

Nation's - Slice of banana cream pie for dessert! - Burgers Near Me - Fremont, California

I'm in town visiting, this part of the Bay Area is old stomping grounds, but didn't remember Nation's Hamburger for having pies. So, it starts off with me at home in Hawaii, craving Blueberry Cheesecake almost three weeks ago. My wife puts it to rest, by making me one! Which by the way was really good! Been in Cali for five days, and a few of those my Uncle traveling with me had mentioned Banana Cream pie. He associated that Cali peeps don't eat bananas, because wherever we ate breakfast, no one served it! Well took care of that demise and had a resturant agree to make them for us one morning. So, back to the pie! YELP searched Banana Cream pie, and thought we found a place... but CLOSED on Tuesdays...(kinda glad they were) Second was Nation's... ? They make pies? Hmmmm I googled our way and directions, it was literally a stones throw away... We get there and there's a glass display of PIES! Banana Cream and MANY OTHERS.... So, my photo is of a Slice of Blueberry Cheesecake, because the Banana didn't survive after slicing before a beautiful picture of it could be taken! I was a contributor to both pies! They were very good and rich! I'll be back on a return visit, for hamburgers and pie! It's a recommend in my places to eat and revisit! Aloha! read more

We tried their blueberry cheesecake and boy was it delicious! It was less of a pie, more like a cheesecake in a pie pan. The cheesecake part was not too dense, which made the pie just the right amount of sweetness - would recommend if you're in the area! read more

Great service will use you for future deliveries. Pie is delicious. Love it!! Nations is close by. Did not go inside.

So I've been to this place once before today. I ordered the same 3 egg breakfast and substituted toast for a flour tortilla. Well today when I ordered the same breakfast, the Manager taking my order refused to substitute the toast for 1 flour tortilla. I asked why and her reply was "we don't do that". So me being the customer and spending my money at your establishment and you couldn't accommodate a paying customer???!!! Isn't it supposed to be all about customer service?? The cook that overheard my conversation with the manager did give me an extra piece of toast which I appreciated tremendously. That's customer service. As a manager of a food establishment you need to accommodate your customers, because customers have choices and my choice in the future will be Country Way. Miss manager...zero Cooks....100%. Food was on point Me coming back...Not going to happen again. read more

Excellent pies and burgers! Really can't go wrong with anything you order at Nation's. Great restaurant overall!

Expected it to be better than I remembered. Cheeseburger fries and a soda. It was alright. Not the best but not the worst either. I still would come back but wouldn't drive out of my way for it. read more

Went back here several times before today with favorite yelper. But today merits an update. A different person was at the cash register. He was very kind, professional and has a great memory for remembering your order. Nice change! I also noticed that they changed their front door. Now you can open both doors! Yay! We're bad today. Really bad! We ordered the Hotdog with chile and topped with cheese! Cheese Burger with everything minus the onions and two huge slices of pie. One chocolate cream pie and one banana cream pie. The first time I tried their pies here 6 years ago I knew they're the best. Nothing's changed. Sill the best. Cashiers may come and go but their pies stays the best! OMG! We were full till about 4 pm. Like 4 hours after! read more

We've been meaning to stop by here to try it but because it's right next to my son's favorite place to eat, Chic-Fil-A, we never really got to chance to eat here because we end up next door. We recently got a Buy One Get One Free Coupon and it was an enough incentive to try this place. Chic-Fil-A is closed on Sundays so that was the best time to go. The coupon is quite tricky to begin with. We ordered the bacon cheeseburger at $8.95 (or something around there) and also the 2 egg breakfast with hash browns, ham (you get a choice of meat) and toast which was around $8.50. So we assumed that the 2 egg breakfast would be free. I was a little surprised to see that only $7.00 was taken off of my receipt. It seems like how they ring up the price of the burger is different than what's on the menu board. They ring up the hamburger as $7, then add the cheese then the bacon, which is why I basically got the hamburger for free but not the cheese or the bacon. When we sat down, it wasn't busy and there were lots of tables available but I guess we have to wipe our own tables since no one was really out there maintaining the place. We probably will not go back because even with the coupon, it's quite pricey. This is diner style but you order first, pay, wait for your number to be called then you get up and pick up your food right at the counter. You have to find a nice table to sit, if any are available because the place is small but I don't feel welcomed eating here. There are two restrooms and both are gender neutral. If I had to choose again, we would rather go across the street at Denny's where they have $5.99 for pancakes, 2 sausages, hash browns, and 2 bacon. To me that's a better value and we don't even need a coupon. read more

Both the boyfriend & I suffered from severe food poisoning after breakfast here Saturday Sept 1st. Our whole holiday weekend was ruined. No solid foods and when we did try, couldn't keep any of it in. This was the only meal we shared in the previous 2 days. We only gave it a try because of a BOGO coupon. Never again. I ordered the one egg meal with hash brown, toast, & bacon. He got an omelette with hash brown, & toast. To top it off, it was a 35 min wait... for breakfast... Avoid Avoid Avoid read more

I've been here a few times since their pies are amazing but recently due to covid I had to call in to order and as I'm ready to say my whole order, they stop me every sentence to ask if I want to add bacon or cheese and fries, onion rings, pie or a shake. This happened a few times so I asked the guy about it and he said it was company policy and that they get in trouble if they don't ask... They get in trouble for not up selling? This made me not want to order from them anytime soon. read more
