I've ate here before at least two times. Both times were good. The place used to be the old Pizza Hut so the decor looks outside looks familiar. When you go inside it looks totally different. Television screens, hard wood chairs and tables are in this place. I ordered a swiss bacon mushroom burger and onion rings. Burger was cooked perfect - medium well. Onion rings were fried golden brown. There was nothing big to complain about. It is what you pay for. Prices are reasonable. Food was very good. I live in Middletown so it is a little out of my range travelwise. If i do pass the area, especially in traffic on highway, i do recommend eating at this place. read more

The man at the front desk was incredibly rude and condescending. Asked about a shake thought they can make certain kinds he just seemed annoyed. Shouldn't work with the public. The other staff seemed super friendly though and food was very good! read more

Under new management and the quality & service definitely improved. This was the first time trying a Wayback, and they sure did deliver a good experience. Burger wise, I like to say it's a mix of Shake Shack and Five Guys. They have the customizable option of Five Guys but quality of Shack. Service is also great and friendly at this location. Restaurant is extremely clean and well kept. Definitely will return to try again! read more

As soon as I walked into this restaurant as a handicapped person, I could tell this was going to be a special place. I was greeted warmly and treated graciously. The hamburgers were delicious-the kind you think of when you say HAMBURGER! I could tell that some of the customers were locals, another good sign. Enjoy! read more

Super tasty! Definitely would go again. Great burger, great atmosphere. Service was kind and helpful. Shakes were YUMMY!

I absolutely love the Wayback Burger! Add frues or tater-tots and you have yourself some good ole-fashioned chow. Try the Nasville Chicken Sandwich! read more

Burger was great and had some tasty chili cheese fries in which I am a big fan off. The lemonade was tasty.

Still the best and fresh burgers in Monroe. Just steps away from Airplane Park, and a must for locals, and visitors to Woodbury or the trails. Don't forget the best part; did someone say ONION RINGS! Love them with the Chipotle Mayo. A must if you are in Monroe. read more

Best burgers and fries I ever had. Lisa does an amazing job taking care of customers and ensuring the food is on time and well prepared. There was a line but everyone was taken care of in a time manner. Restaurant was neat and clean and well organized. Monroe's hidden gem. Thank you to Team Wayback! read more

Can't go wrong. Passing through on the way back to Jersey and stopped in for a quick bite. Had a Burger with pepper jack and mushrooms and hubby had a Philly cheesesteak. Homemade chips were good too. Both sandwiches were excellent. Service was fast and staff was very friendly. We would definitely stop there again when in the area. read more

Jakes wayback burgers... where do I start? Amazing. A few years ago I had a DoorDash order here and thought it smelt and looked amazing. My girlfriend and I ordered from here. Expectations were more than met. We created our own burgers. They beat our expectations. The wayback hot dog... absolutely amazing. A must have if you're ordering from here. With all this being said, Wayback Burgers 10/10 we will be ordering from here again. Best burgers ever! P.S. this is the girlfriend now. I went to Jakes wayback when they first opened. Not that good at all. After trying it again. I was blown away with how much better they have gotten. Definitely the best burger and hot dog place in Monroe (and far better than Five Guys in my opinion). New go to for a good burger. AMAZING!!!! read more

Friendly staff, clean dining area and good service. The food is always cooked fresh to order. Always a good meal at Wayback!

These are the absolute best fast food burgers in the world. So much tastier, juicer, and cheesier than all others. Staff is super friendly at the Monroe location. It's pretty expensive in my opinion, but the food is really good. read more

Have never been here but figure I should finally try after passing by the restaurant for years. Was greeted at door and the staff was very nice. Ordered the classic Wayback meal, comes with drink and choice of fries, potato puffs, onion rings or some other choice. I got fries, they were cooked very good, crispy and not overdone. The burger comes with several toppings and I said leave it all on. They will ask and can modify of course. Was very filling, double patty, and seasoned well. I would recommend them for sure, so much more to try on the menu. Price came to $11.44 not fast food $ but they cook fresh to order and I can't complain. Didn't give them 5 stars only because I have had better burgers in my life but would visit Wayback another time. Next time trying a shake. read more

First time visiting a Wayback Burger. Pleasantly surprised. Staff was great and were very patient with the kids. Food was excellent and the place was very clean. Generally, in fast food places I feel like I don't want to sit down in the seats or at the tables, but this place was pretty clean. I felt like management and staff took pride in their restaurant. My family and I will go back again when we're in the area. read more

Love their curbside takeaway and endless options of what you can order -- plus it's reasonable priced.

I'm updating my review since Wayback is now under new management. Since they took over we've only had great food and great experiences. Since food is cooked fresh to order it is not as "fast" as other fast food. So I recommend using the app and ordering ahead (plus you earn point for free Wayback!!). One of our favorite places in town! read more

I ate here for lunch the other day. The place looks nice and clean with plenty of parking. The place was not crowded at all so I walked up to the register to order. It took a while for someone to take my order. There were 2 orders ahead of me. I ordered a cheeseburger with fries and a soda. The burger was very good and fresh. Toppings were fresh as well. The fries were cooked perfect and were slightly crunchy but not too salty. My only problem was that it took way too long for my food (about 30+ minutes) to be ready. When I walked inside I knew they looked understaffed. Had there been a rush of people they would have been a mess. They seemed to have recovered when one of the employees walked in and helped, so this may have been a one time glitch. The employees were polite and friendly. For just about $10, I got a very good burger, good fries and a soda. This was certainly better than a fast food restaurant where it could cost you about the same amount of money for about the same amount of food. I am a fan and will return to see if the service was just a bump in the road or if it is a common problem with this place. Tip: Tell them exactly what toppings you want on your burger or they will put everything on it. I like everything but there are some people who may not like mustard, onions, etc. read more

I am a faithful way back burger patron. This crew and manager however went above and beyond. Best way back dining experience ever! Clean restaurant. Courteous , professional, and friendly staff. Perfectly made food. I will be back to this location in the future. I would have given 6 stars if I could. read more

Old fashion classic burger joint. Found this gem on our way home from Resorts Casino. Delicious, fresh ingredients on a very tasty brioche bun. Great burger! Very friendly staff. Reason for 4 stars is only b/c it took a little long to get our food. read more

Pretty good, prices are a little high and the burgers are just a tad bland but I love the flavor nonetheless. Great milk shakes and cheese fries as well as good chicken / onion rings.. Also, the friendly staff and cool owner make the atmosphere nice to be around. ( However, Not taking Groupon absolutely hurt your business, just sayin') read more

The burgers are always freshly made . Very welcoming by staff upon arriving. The ambiance is good

Excellent joint. 1) Got the triple triple burger. Finished the whole thing. 9 patties, each quarter pound. 2) Got the chili cheese fries. Large portions and excellent taste. 3) Service is excellent. 4) Try the cricket chocolate shake. Amazing! read more

Best burgers in town along with shakes and sides. Better burgers than any local spot, greater quality than our local fast food spots and yet lower/ comparable cost!!!! Will not go anywhere else for a burger or chicken sandwich in Orange County!!! read more

Their website has a menu featured that does not open when items are clicked on for the full description as well as the pricing. You must personally visit to access menu prices, food descriptions, etc. read more

Banging burgers , the Chezzy's are my fav , I'm not sure where the beer taps went because it was always great getting a beer with your burger but still a really great spot read more

First time here and the burgers and fries were good. I would compare them to a place like Sonic or In and Out Burger so if you love those .. then you will love this place too. Restaurant and restrooms were clean and the service was friendly. Seemed a little bit expensive .... but the food was yummy. read more

Awesome , clean & yummy . Highly recommendable I had wayback at least 10 times within a year . read more

Nothing short of "perfect" tbh. The cheeseburgers are so so so so good - they actually get really addicting. To top it off, this place is halal (except the hotdogs and bacon) read more

Always skeptical when I find a new burger spot. With giants like five guys and shake shack it's hard for small business to compete. Wayback burger actually turned out really good. It was a lil expensive but all burger joints are. Give it a chance. read more

Love their burgers. If you feel Luke having a burger and fries don't waste your time in shake shack or mc Donald's. Their prices are the best read more

I never had this fast chain food before and it was so tasty. I liked that you can build your own burgers with different ingredients and sauces. There signature menu are all double patties so I ordered single Pattie burger with all my favorite veggies. The onion rings and french fries are really fresh and crunchy. I want to come back and try buffalo chicken sandwich and cod sandwich. Felt like fresher than other fast food chain. Therefore the food was a little slow for the fast food place but I rather have that and tasty food. read more

Northeastern burger chain that hit the spot after a long car ride. Great fresh ingredients and it was free shake day! Young local teens as staff, but everyone was professional, kind and the place was clean! read more

Fantastic food! We were in town for a visit and were looking for something last minute. Great options for our party with allergy and meat-less needs. Great house made chips and they went above and beyond when there was a miscommunication with our order. Thankyou! We will be back! read more

Amazing service. The food is also really good and I'm a picky eater! My favorite cheat meal!!!

If you are on this side of town, it's a must stop by and order a good burger and fries with a nice milkshake. The owner is very friendly and always striving to provide the best service. read more

Stopped at this Wayback on the way back (see what I did there...) from a weekend upstate. Found it on Yelp because I wanted to find something a little different than the standard highway fare. Old school little burger joint, counter service but they deliver the food to your table. Standard burgers, dogs, chicken kind of menu. Got a burger and fries and it was very good - did remind me of 5 guys. Servers were very friendly, overall a solid place to stop if you are in the area. read more

So good! We saw the sign from 17 and just stopped on a whim. I got a cheese steak, my husband got the rodeo and we split the Irish nachos. So so good! Highly recommend. read more

The imposible burger was great it's a must try. I also liked that the imposible burger had a light spice taste. The fries were good not at all greasy which was good. I like the interior decor of Wayback and the menu setup is very attractive. Overall I enjoyed the experience. read more

Our local Monroe friends have recommended my wife and I check out this place as it is under new management. We have today and would definitely suggest it to others. It is extra clean, the staff are courteous and the food is so much better than average fast food. The burgers were tasty and not greasy at all, onion rings and French fries were crispy and made to order. When you go, definitely try their milk shakes! read more
