    Told you we would be back! After exploring Factory Butte and Moonscape Overlook in Caineville, we had to smash a combo at this establishment. Located within a gas station and gift shop, Stans is a great burger joint. Place your order, then stroll to the shop section to browse all the shirts and merchandise. We didn't see any prices posted, so stayed away from the honey trap ourselves. DO NOT SKIP THE SHAKES!! Pick a flavor you haven't had and roll with it. On TV they loop a cool video that shows the highlights of endless cool stuff to see in the area. They cajun fries really stuck out this trip, being super crispy! See you next time when in magical Hanksville!

    Have to stop every time I make my way near Hanksville. Food is delicious, vibe is nice, and service is quick.

    This is what a burger place should be. Super solid burgers. No pretentiousness. Buns are fresh and excellent texture. Burgers taste like a burger should/ delicious and not over seasoned. Fries are battered and crispy.

    Fat Man Reviews K.

    After visiting Goblin Valley State Park and traveling towards Bryce Canyon, the Fat Man and his wife wanted lunch. Cruising into Hanksville, Utah. We stopped at Stan's Burger Shak. Stan's is a casual eatery dishing up grilled burgers, fries, and shakes near Lake Powell. We decided to split lunch and started with a Banana Shake. It was a very thick vanilla soft serve with good banana flavor and a few chunks of real banana. I like mine a little thinner, but this was a good shake, and they give you a proper amount in the shake. Next up, we went with the double burger and fries. The fries were cooked well with good crunch and seasoned well. They are out of a bag, and the serving size is adequate. The veggies on the burger were fresh and offered good crunch and texture to the burger. The brioche bun was fresh and had a good chew, a slightly sweet and buttery flavor. The American cheese was melted well and offered a gooey texture. The burger sauce was very sweet but helped cut through the burger patties. The patties tasted like they were frozen pre-formed and had minimal seasoning. The burger-to-bun ratio was okay, the patties were thin but not smashed; however, the burger lacked flavor and did not satisfy the palate. Stan's has a full menu of burgers, wraps, fries, onion rings, salads and sandwiches. Pretty much everything you would expect from a roadside burger joint. The wait staff was friendly and helpful. The Fat Man says that Stan's Burger Shak is NOT Fat Man Approved.

    Double cheeseburger and large "Cajun" fries. Don't get the double. Single is better balanced. Good, but not as good as Five Guys.

    Stan's is good. Not as good as a place like Five guys on the East Coast, but certainly notable for Hanksville, Utah. Milkshakes are made with soft serve ice cream and are very sweet and rich. There is NO REASON to get any size larger than SMALL.

    This was a small shake. Lots of flavors to choose from.

    Big burgers here. And super thick shakes. If you're hungry, this is the place to stop. Gas station and gift shop here as well. Plenty of parking.

    Double cheeseburger w/ lettuce and mayo

    Cheeseburgers are delicious and cooked to order. Add whatever toppings you prefer, Crispy fries and even milkshakes. Lots more to choose from but that's what I got. Cheeseburger with ketchup and pickles. Eat in or carry out. My husband got the double cheeseburger (pictured)

    If you want just a burger this is a good spot. Not fancy just a burger spot. Milkshakes are great as well

    The burgers were average and cold. The shakes were pretty good. Fairly good food for being in the middle of nowhere.

    Staying in Bicknell after visiting Capitol Reef National park and needed a place to eat dinner…read more This place had lots of positive reviews so this was our choice. Wow! Reviews didn't lie! It's located in Torrey- you can spot the gravel parking lot with lots of cars in front. In fact we actually didn't see the restaurant because there were 2 rows of cars parked in front-a good sign! The menu was varied- from pizza ( more about that later), steak, salads, sandwiches, trout, mexican food. Good selection of alcoholic drinks, beer and soft drinks and even ice cream floats. The meals came with a choice of salad or soup and choice of baked or mashed potato, fries or vegetables. I ordered the steak sandwich which was strips of steak with grilled vegetables -onions and peppers, cheese and a spread of guacamole. It was served on crusty ciabatta bread. I asked for no added salt on the steak and they graciously accommodated me. It was nicely seasoned and didn't need the extra salt. The meat was nice and tender. Hubby ordered the starter dish taco (2) and it had a large piece of battered fried fish. It was crispy and moist. It could be an entree! I saw other diners order the burger and it was thick and large. Another party ordered the large pizza- let me tell you it was huge-almost big as a lazy susan. It could easily feed four or more. And the price was so reasonable- $23 for the premium pizza and $22 for the others. Looking around, all the meals that came out were generously portioned. No wonder the place was full! In spite of the steady flow of customers, the staff was very friendly and helpful and came by to refill waters. We didn't have to wait too long for the food in spite of the busyness. For those wanting a good meal after a day in the park, come here!

    Likely one of the better options near Capitol Reef NP. The fish tacos were generously portioned and…read morethe sauce was excellent. As others mentioned the steak sandwich is a solid choice. We also had a root beer float but was rather small for being a large on the receipt. Interior was up to par as well as the service.

This here's a Neighborhood joint welcoming all. The place has notified movie-set bones, staff slingin' grins quick as a boot scoot, no BS. That kick arse bacon cheeseburger lands like a low steel guitar riff--"mmm-mmmm, that is one tasty burger", Jules Winnifield / Samuel L. style. Dub it the "Big Honcho"; it'll own the range in this eastern Utah hardpan. Dip fries in Ray's Sauce for that sneaky kick. Karens and chip-hoarders, hit the brakes elsewhere--this ain't Applebee's sheen or Chili's plastic. Raw Americana, Martha Stewart'd grit her teeth and polish, Betty White'd cackle through seconds. Lewis Grizzard? He'd park the truck, nod at the mountains like old Georgia pines, and call it home over a double. That was one Tasty Burger! Thank you!
