Love, love, love Train Wreck. Great food, incredibly friendly and helpful staff with an inviting atmosphere! I go here every time I'm in town. read more

This was a wonderful surprise! Most helpful, congenial and efficient service. Very fresh tasting ingredients, great flavors. Set in a charming, rustic old building, the menu is surprisingly interesting. From burgers to ahi poke. We had edamome which were a bit messy to eat but had fantastic flavor. We both ordered the appetizer poke for our lunch. A beautiful plate of food, generous portion, and great flavors. I loved the house made "chili crisp" as an accent, as well as the pickled ginger. This was fun and so satisfying to eat. read more

This is the second visit to Train Wreck and it did not improve on the first impression. I opted for the special which was a streak empanada, the filling was flavorful and had a substantial amount of steak but the crust which is my favorite part was so dry and tough I ended up just eating the filling. I was so hoping it would be better than the first time we went. Hubby had fish and chips, he said it was "ok" but we are not big fans of beer battered fish so he wouldn't order it again. The place is cute and the service was adequate. So many places that are fabulous here we won't be giving Train Wreck a third try. read more

We've been going to the Train Wreck ever since Nick opened it. Even though we've moved, we still make regular visits because we know the food will be excellent and the service friendly. Lately, I've become a big fan of the Korean tacos. They've got some zip, but they sure are tasty. read more

The food was outstanding with house baked bread for my house smoked brisket and hand sliced fries! The service was great, we didn't have to wait long. And the train rumbled by at least four times out the window, much to the delight of my wife! A great experience, we will be back! read more

Great atmosphere and service. Comfortable booths. We all had salads which were fresh and large enough we could have shared (I saved 1/2 for the next day) read more

We were headed to a nearby establishment but it was too crowded and it had been a minute since we went to Train Wreck. They cleared out the middle row of tables since I was there last. It opened up the top. It was a full house as usual but we lucked out and were seated promptly. The food is good of course. Mama got the chicken BLT and I got the Cod and chips. The star was the French fries. All natural cut and flavorful. Some smaller pieces were crispy and gave it good texture. We don't go often but when we do it's never a disappointment read more

Trainwreck is just one of those places that hits the spot when you're not even planning to stop. We pulled in on the way home because I was desperate for a Bloody Caesar, and I swear they make the best one I've ever had. Spicy, tangy, perfect rim, perfect garnish -- it just hit. We lucked out and got a table right by the TV showing the game, which immediately set the vibe. The staff was on it -- like a small army appeared out of nowhere the second we sat down. Napkins, menus, water -- bam. Everyone was so genuinely nice too, even threw me a few compliments on my shirt (which caught me totally off guard but hey, I'll take it). Hubby got the breakfast special -- a breakfast Cubano -- and said it was killer. I went for the Trainwreck waffle and holy hell, whoever decided to put bacon in the batter deserves a medal. Sweet, salty, fruity, buttery chaos in the best way. The owner/manager popped by more than once to check in, super friendly and chatty, just that kind of person who makes you feel like you've been regulars forever. Everything about the stop was just good energy -- delicious food, perfect drinks, spooky-but-cozy atmosphere, friendly people who seem to actually like being there. Total win. read more

As far as local legends go, the Train Wreck is right up there. I've been coming here for more than ten years, and have never been disappointed. And now that I live in the Valley, I'm there even more often. Lately, I've been going for dinner, since their legendary breakfast rush is no joke. Pro tip: if you're going for brekky, get there right (and I mean RIGHT) when their doors open in the morning. Because within 10 minutes after opening, they are full with a line out the door. Late lunch or dinner are a good bet for not having to wait long, if at all. And their non-breakfast food is just as good (if not better) than their morning offerings. I love their wide variety of sandwiches, burgers, and salads. On my last visit I tried their grilled cheese, which was served with homemade tomato soup and was delish. I'm also a fan of their fish 'n chips, and you can't go wrong with their ginormous, juicy burger. Want to swing out? There's always a tempting-sounding special on the board. (Most recently, I noticed on social media that they had a limited time lobster roll on the menu - I was so sad to miss it!) They also have fast and friendly service, an awesome tap list, and just about any cocktail you could ever want. This is a must-visit if you're anywhere nearby and want a tasty meal. read more

We have eaten here several times now and have been disappointed the tumblers are packed with ice up to the rim leaving little room for the drink. At least they are not expensive read more

My mom and I picked this place to sit, have a couple drinks, and catch up. We were not expecting such wonderful food in addition to the wide array of alcoholic beverages as well! We didn't get a chance to try the dinner special but they have a rotating dessert menu that has killer options all year around. I can not recommend the pumpkin crème brûlée enough The server we had was so sweet and made sure to check on us frequently while running around to get other tables. She only forgot my extra side of sauce and that was immediately corrected when I mentioned it to her! The music choice was also very nice, it was a lot of early 2000's punk rock music which fits the grungy vibe so well. read more

Good food, great service! Relaxing atmosphere. Never had a bad meal here. Trains go by right next to this place.

Great time! Party of seven - we were lucky to find a table, this place is very popular. Alaskan cod was very good - perfect portions. Personally, tooooo many fries were on each plate - we all ended up leaving a lot on the plate. Mushroom burger w/ Gouda was "phenomenal." Cocktails are very good. read more

I was so excited to try this place and it definitely did not disappoint. I loved the style of the restaurant and felt like I was in a train. The service was great and all the staff I interacted with were very sweet. Now, the food! The crab cakes were delicious, fresh, and the sauce was delectable. I poured it all over the crab cakes and it gave it such a mouthwatering flavor I cannot describe. With that slice of lemon it was simply a slice of heaven! The fish and chips were fantastic and sad we didn't get the 3 piece. The coating was perfect portioned and nice and crunchy but not overly done. The fries were incredibly crunchy and perfectly salted and truly I left wanting more. On to the red velvet cheesecake! Amazing and I wished I would have gotten 2 pieces. The only thing I wasn't in love with was the drink I ordered and their ranch but that won't stop me from coming back :) read more

Janie is not just a server, she is a First Responder! We were literally starving and the food she served was a LifeSaver. Don ordered a QuesoBirria Torta: very similar to a French Dip style sandwich but with a more savory broth for dipping. I had veggie burger with sweet potato fries. It was delicious food and hit the spot just in time. Thank you Janie. read more

I was in the area so I decided to eat lunch at the Train Wreck Bar. I was fortunate that I picked a quiet time there, they were only about half occupancy. So, I sat down, checked the menu, and ordered the Smoke Pork sandwich and an Arnold Palmer drink. I was very impressed with the sandwich! It was overstuffed with delicious smoked pulled pork. The fries were not as crisp as I prefer, but still tasty. I couldn't eat all the fries, there were just too many! The wait staff was kind, attentive, and I didn't have to wait for anything. I had a very good lunch and look forward to my next visit. read more

Best bloody Mary's ever. My friend ordered the bloody Mary I think $35 with all the sides. It was a drink with sliders ,lots of Yummy breakfast items and looked amazing! I would order that any day of the week! The food was amazing. I would recommend this place 100 percent!. read more

I love this place. Food is amazing, service great and love the ambiance! Only thing wrong (as far as I'm concerned) is you must be 21. I have grandkids in their late teens I'd love to be able to go there with me. The sweet potato fries are to die for! read more

It's easy to crash at the Train Wreck, with the approachable food, creative drink specials, interesting taps, friendly service, and amicable atmosphere you'll find here. Portions are big and often sharable. Get the Bloody Mary, for a photo-worthy foody pic. A reliable lunch, dinner, and brunch go-to, and always the "Plan B" joint everyone can agree on, when exploring what the area has to offer. Recommended. read more

Long have I had the Train Wreck Bar on my list to try and after a pleasant walk at Northern Recreational Area we weren't too far from it to grab some lunch. I had the Korean Pork Tacos which were fantastic and so very flavorful with the Korean style slaw, red onions and Korean Aoli. Steve had a hamburger which looked very impressive and the other folks in our party looked like they had some good looking meals as well. They had a nice selection of beers on tap and Steve and I shared one which was very good! The atmosphere for the bar is cool and it is literally right by some train tracks so you might have a train come through when you are enjoying the dining experience here! read more

I realized upon walking in, I had been to the Train Wreck probably close to 15 years ago. Very cool interior space with a combination of brick walls and hardwood. I had the Elk Burger. A devirginizing experience. It was cooked medium rare and delicious. Heidi was a great server. I will definitely be back, you should go too! read more

I tried this restaurant when they first opened a few years ago and loved it. I came back today hoping they were still good. I was amazed ed to find they were just as good if not better. My burger was perfection and the best onions I have ever had! They make all of their own sauces, marinades, dressings and rolls! Portions are big. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. And well the atmosphere is great. It is a 21 and over establishment. The drinks are phenomenal as well. I had the orange bill espresso martini, tasted like the Valencia orange mocha Starbucks had back in the 90's. Can't wait to come back. read more

Train Wreck Bar has hearty breakfast food with HEFTY portions and is not a place for the weak (or those with high cholesterol). It's also home of the breakfast Bloody Mary, which impressively doubles as food and drink. Prices are a bit steep ($18-20 per dish), but can somewhat be justified by the massive portions. (Seriously, you may want to consider splitting the breakfast burrito.) Surprisingly a lot of seating, with bar vibes in the front and diner vibes in the back. Fast, friendly service -- our server was so kind and attentive, and made us feel right at home. Would recommend for a pit stop in Burlington! read more

Recommended by a pretty cool guy we met at a remote hot springs. Told us we NEED to visit here. Our waitress noticed that I finished my fries before touching my burger, which needless to say even the fries are AMAZING. Actually, both the house and mushroom burgers, along with the onion rings, with special house sauces were made to PERFECTION. I really want to come back here. Our waitress was very fun and attentive to our needs. Drinks were on point! Hope to come back soon! read more

What a gem of a place! A friend had told me to stop by Train Wreck Bar if I was ever driving by Burlington and after a long kayaking day at Diablo Lake, this restaurant happened to be on our way back home to Seattle. It totally hit the spot! I dined with a group of 3. 2 of us got the Elk burger which was widely raved about. I got the regular burger which I equally loved. We all got the Bloody Mary! Service was awesome and down to earth. I must come for the breakfast Bloody Mary next time! read more

Train Wreck has an amazingggg cocktail menu! I was DD so I got a virgin pina colada but my table mates got a Dole Whip and one of their ciders on tap. We started with the jalapeño poppers! The bacon wrapping was yummy and there was lots of filling. For entree we got the ahi tuna bowl, mahi tacos and the brisket sandwich. My bowl was lovely- I really enjoyed the tuna and the spicy sauce was delightful. The brisket sandwich was very tough and the pieces too thickly cut. He had a hard time eating it. read more

Stopped at Train Wreck to get some food to go, although I'd like to go back for the decor itself. It's also only a few feet away from the train tracks so the building will shake. They have their own glasses with railroad crossing signs - ordered an old fashioned while waiting. For a train buff this is a great place to try. I ordered the Train Wreck Burger, which was good but I was really impressed with the sweet potato fries. Done right and not soggy like some I've had in the past. read more

The server was very attentive. He refilled drinks and answered all questions. At first, it was noisy but got quieter as people left. We only had about a 10 minute wait for a table. The soups were full of flavor, but I thought the chowder could have been hotter. The elk burger was juicy, which can be difficult with a very lean meat. This is a small place with good food. read more

Second visit here. I don't recall what I had the first time - maybe a burger - but it was good. Tried the Rueben this time and it was up there with the best I've ever had. Just one comment on the Rueben. It was served with a side of horseradish sauce which I liked but didn't think it really went with the sandwich (and I am a big fan of horseradish). Sandwich was perfect without so I'm glad that it was on the side. Nice cute little spot! Good service too. read more
