Nothing new here, still great food, busy with the locals and lake crowd, and food that arrives fast and fills an empty stomach. On this trip the range burger was the special, we selected the brioche bun and stayed with the fresh potato fries. After eating a big lunch, we opted to split the special--I guess we are officially senior citizens now, but it was just the right amount. The cashier took our order at the counter, answered our questions, and rang up our credit card. Another positive experience, another happy customer. read more

Open Range has always been one of my favorite spots in Ogallala! Great food and drink selection. Some of their burgers are definitely out there and it's fun to try them. Their appetizers are always great. Sometimes I find the burgers to be a little dry sometimes, but they're usually good. They have GREAT ranch, which is always a plus for me. Their Rancho Cobb salad is one of my favorites here. There is lots of seating, the staff is always great. A solid place to grab a good meal! read more

They were supposed to be open, but weren't seating us so we left after 5 minutes of not greeting or acknowledging us.

Waiting 45 minutes to receive our food is nuts. They need more staff in the kitchen. Nothing is worth this long of a wait.

Burgers and fries were really good! Clean, fun atmosphere. Service was friendly enough. Great place to stop through traveling on I-80. Prices listed online were different than in store. Burgers were around $15-18. read more

Food was great. Service was more than excellent. Dog was welcomed on the patio and everything was above board. read more

The beer was cold & the atmosphere is friendly & casual. The burger was alittle more done than I prefer.

We got burgers and chicken tenders with fries. Everything needed salt and was overcooked.

Way over priced for what you get. Six dollars for a can of beer. I had the steak sandwich, wanted a nice ribeye but that's not on the menu. My "steak sandwich" was a piece of beef?? covered with mushrooms and a slice of melted cheese, sitting on top of two slices of toasted/grilled bread. The meat was tough, bad tough. It was the kinda tough that isn't afraid to walk down a dark alley, at night, wearing a pink tutu. The fries were over done simple put. The young lady working there was nice though. She didn't seemed bothered that she had to explain everything to us. AND she was doing everything except the cooking. She was the greeting, cashier, waitress, and busboy. Whatever she is making isn't enough. read more

We stopped here on an rv trip. It's a great local burger place. We all ordered burgers. The first two arrived quickly. The other two were delayed enough that we talked to the manager. She was very apologetic about the delay and refunded the cost as well as delvering the food. Apparently they were breaking in a new cook. There are lots of beer on tap. Prices were very reasonable for the quantity and quality. Would stop again if we are in the area read more

Don't waste your time or $$!! The burger was well well done. Fries are mediocre at best. The fried pickle spears were undercooked. And how is one supposed to tip when you have to order at the counter and bus your own table?? I'm guessing its hard to keep help because I don't know about you but if im taking my own order and bussing my own table the tip will not be nearly as much. Not to mention i start off with a bad feeling when faced with the check before I even have my food and asked for a tip. Lastly THE OUTRAGIOUS PRICE FOR OVER COOKED AND UNDERCOOKED FOOD! And NO service. $35 booo!!! read more

I told the waitress when she checked on me, "Best food ever", 11 out of 10 I wrote in the guest book. I don't eat burgers much. I don't eat out much either. It was such a treat and an explosion of flavored. I had the Renegade Burger with horseradish cheese, grilled onions, grilled jalapeños, and sweet potato fries on the side. They serviced it with some kind if chipotle spread or dip too, it seemed. That paired well with the fries, which were the crispiest I'd ever had, crinkle cut. And the burger was on a really soft pretzel bun. Definitely check it out if you are a beef lover. The meat is from a local ranch too! read more

We love stopping at this spot coming in, or leaving the lake because the service is quick and it's pretty consistent when it comes to burgers and beer. It's fast casual so you order at the counter an they bring it out to you. The pretzel bun is my favorite type of bun but they offer a variety. Depending on when you go it can be super busy or relatively dead. We stopped in right at 11 and were the only ones there. read more

Interesting. Gave a try to the Goober burger. I must admit I have never tried peanut butter on a burger before. It was pretty good, but something that I think I will confine to saying I have tried it before. The onion rings were terrific. read more

We love eating here when we are in Ogallala or passing through. Great burgers, cold beer, and friendly service. We were really disappointed on our last visit though, as they no longer have fresh cut fries. But it's still a good place to stop. read more

Burgers are amazing and portions are large. Sweet potato fries are awesome!! Easy ordering and nice selection!!! read more

Delicious burgers and fries. Found through yelp while traveling through Nebraska. We got the nova burger, Gomorrah burger and a kids range burger. Cooked well and the fries were seasoned well. read more

So yummy after a trip across Nebraska! Well worth the trip to Ogallala! My son and mom had the Range Burger (and ate it faster than I could take pictures) with homemade fries. Kiddo called it the best burger he's ever had, which is high praise from a rancher's son! I wanted to go lighter, and grabbed the Rancho Cobb salad with fresh greens, bacon, and homemade croutons and ranch. It was amazing! Highly recommend! read more

This outdoorsy wooden kind of country building is actually a local restaurant. I was fooled, I say!!! Upon entering the long ramp up to the doors, I was eager to see what's inside. This very spacious, hearty countryside restaurant was extremely unique. There are multiple rooms available for a variety of activities and festivities. If you keep walking all the to the back, they do offer out of doors gatherings. I would have loved to see the staff more engaging as a new customer with questions about their eatery. Next time, I'm sure. WOW! I just fell in love with this beefy bacon cheesey burger, and the side items were fried pickles and greenbeans. The burger was magnificent and beefy. The toppings, tomatoes, pickles, and onions were sliced just right to accent this beefy burger. The fried pickles and green beans are heavily coated in batter with a delicious flavor, but both items are spicy. I was a little disappointed in the spice level in these two side items. I was not able to enjoy either one of them. They have many other side items to try, and I will be back to enjoy! read more

Fun place for a bite to eat in Ogallala. Good dining options near lake Mac are limited and the reviews of most places are totally hit or miss, so I'm glad we chose to come here. There are tables inside but they do have an outdoor patio that is dog friendly. Not sure if smoking is allowed but one person was smoking on the patio. You order food and drinks at the counter and they bring the food out to you. The employees were very nice. They had a variety of local beers available, as well as the classic beers, some on tap. Food was good. We had burgers, fries, and salads. Nothing extraordinary, but definitely solid. I'd come here again. Note that if you are coming from another state, approaches to COVID may be different. Most people, including employees, were not wearing masks. read more

hope you have a while to wait the food was ok once I got it but it took 25 min to get 1 cheese burger read more

Good food and friendly environment but prices are a little high. Website shows 6 for a kids meal and it's 10 at the grill. read more

Website is very poor. Always down, wont load, no easy way to order online, no descriptions easily available of what is on each burger. High school kids can build a better website! read more

The food was amazing and the cost was very reasonable. The staff was very friendly and they had a great beer selection.

This was a fantastic place for dinner! The staff was super friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious. Great choice of beers and ciders. Cool western vibe. read more

Open Range Grill - A pickle beers and fried pickle chips. So good! - American Near Me - Ogallala, Nebraska

This place is great if you are looking for a quick, inexpensive delicious meal. The Lonesome burger was super delicious and the fries are similar to Five Guys style (super tasty and hot!). The cashier was sweet and gave me a cookie free of charge. The cookies are amazing as well. Service is counter service and they call your name once tour order is ready for pick ip. Bathrooms are clean and friendly service. I have a feeling this will be a new favorite stop for Lake M visits! read more

Terrific Americana. If I had a visitor from outside of the US, this is the kind of place I would want to take them. 9 specialty burgers are available with 4 varieties of buns. Early American Western photos from the area are on the walls. The food isn't fancy, but it is a quality and fun experience. read more

Stopped by here for lunch on our way from Denver to Lake Mac... absolutely FANTASTIC service and food with great pricing. Being from a big city, we usually set the bar low for smaller towns... but everything we ordered was fantastic (including fresh greens for the steak salad) and we could not get over how friendly the whole crew was. We will definitely be back if we head that way again and I would highly recommend for anyone visiting the area. They're also dog friendly on the patio read more

Great burgers, solid drinks, and excellent service. Recommended by the hotel and they nailed it!

A great grill. Exceeded our expectations. Split the large steak blue cheese salad and the northern northern burger with blue cheese. The beer was cold and the fries were hot. Perfect after a long day in the car. The patio is dog friendly, which was a bonus. read more

Wow a lot of negativity on the reviews here, I'm not a local but every time I pass through I thoroughly enjoy the hospitality and the food, never once had a negative experience ever. If you want a high end meal then go to a Michelin star restaurant. I on the other hand will continue enjoying myself every time I stop. read more

Open Range Grill - Steak Salad DELICIOUS!!! - American Near Me - Ogallala, Nebraska

Awesome atmosphere and great food. We met father/grandfather whose ranch supplies all the beef

Was looking forward to eating lunch here (based on reviews) on our way through to Omaha, but when we arrived (approx 2:30pm on a Saturday) , the place was absolutely dead! Not a single car in the parking lot, no signs on in the windows, nothing. Looked deserted. All indications were that they should be open (website, Yelp, Google, etc.). In fact, all of Ogallala looked pretty deserted. read more

All good! Nice selection of beer on tap and bottled. Highly recommend this place for one awesome burger!

This is truly amazing. We come thru Oogalala Nebraska occasionally. We stay at a local rv park and had this place recommended to us. First experience was mediocre service and well done burgers. We always order medium rare, and did not realize they cooked their grass fed beef to almost a crisp and destroying any flavor. That was 2 or 3 years ago. Lesson learned So this time we order medium rare on both burgers...as you can see from the pictures, his was almost rare and mine........well done, AGAIN!!!!! I do understand places are short staffed and do have patience when waiting on orders. What I do not appreciate is a meal that was ordered a specific way and not getting what I ordered. Of course this was a to go order so got back to the campground and was very disappointed!!!!!!! In addition to that hubby sat at the bar waiting for the order...no one bothered to ask him if he wanted a drink, extra business btw, when a girl finally did bother to ask he said well my order should be coming up soon I don't think I have time now...she said let me check....and never returned. He then notices that there are a stack of styrofoam containers at the other end. He goes over and says do any of these happen to be for Craig? The guy said yeah and it's been sitting here for awhile!!!!! No one called him to let him know his order was ready!!!! So, patience to a point, this was beyond bad!!!!! Terrible service AND scorched burger!!!!! Done, finished...fool me once shame on you...fool me twice shame on me.....last time I will ever set foot in that place....I would go to Wendy's before I went there and I don't eat fast food!!!!! Oh and the no onions.....yeah they screwed that up too... read more

Open Range Grill - Ordered 2 medium rare burgers.....see a problem??? - American Near Me - Ogallala, Nebraska

We pulled into town and ordered take out from Open Range Grill ( thank you Yelp reviewers ! ) Traveling with poochie means that we have to do takeout. When hubby went to pick up our food, he reported back that this is a great, warm, neighborhood place, full of folks and families. He said that there looked to be a good assortment of beers. We both had steak salads and were very pleased. Lots of juicy steak and very fresh lettuce, tomatoes, onions and blue cheese. We will return! read more

Service was mediocre, fries were cold, but it was the uncleanness that put me off. Tables were dirty, staff standing around and not attempting to wipe them, had to ask for a rag to clean ourselves. read more

I always look for a local restaurant when I'm traveling, and a receptionist at my hotel recommended Open Range. Food is affordable and very delicious! I had Renegade burger ( if you like spicy, this is highly recommended), and salad. I was too hungry to take a picture. Staff were very friendly! Highly recommended! read more

Interesting burger combinations, and two options for vegetarian/vegan. Good fries and a laidback atmosphere.

A local business that seems to have it figured out. They raise their own beef, so the costs of meals are lower, but the quality doesn't suffer. The restaurant is big and decorated to the theme of the open range. The selection is fabulous and the cashier and staff are very friendly! read more
