Harbor Burger Shack is serving up FIRE burgers and sides! I got the Classic Harbor Burger with the fixings and my girlfriend got the Back From The Beach which had sloppy joe, tomato sauce, onion and cheese sauce and both were absolutely phenomenal and so were the sweet potato tots! I highly recommend this place if you’re in the area! Very very well priced too!

Love this place! It’s awesome for a family to sit down and have a bite. Just order your food and grab it when they call your number. The burgers are some of the best I have had in a while. The fries, sauce are so good. We cant wait to go back. Harbor Burger Shack is amazing!!!!

Great atmosphere, vintage and interesting decor. Service wasn’t bad. I called my order in and asked if burgers came with fries, was told no and given a 5-10 min time frame to pick up. When I got there and saw they had fries, the guy behind the counter was super quick to grab me 2 freshly made orders of the crinkle cut (though he didn’t ask me how many orders I wanted).
We ordered the Aye Aye Smokehouse burger and the Jay bird Patty Melt. Double burgers for each, which was a good idea because the burgers looked like smashburgers (thin), so the 2 together were the size of what a normal burger should be. The burgers had no char on them at all. It was almost like the griddle was overloaded and not hot enough, so they couldn’t fry up nice and crisp/charred on the outside. Same with the bacon, it was very soft, not crisp. They went super light on the BBQ sauce for the smokehouse burger, with just the smallest drizzle on the bottom bun. And even though the Jaybird was supposed to have their ‘wicked harbor sauce’ on it, the bread was dry. I doctored it up at home with some Chipotle mayo. The fries were completely unseasoned, though they were really nice about giving me a side of vinegar. They advertise the burgers as a blend of Angus, chuck, brisket and short rib. And flavor-wise, you could tell, because it was tasty. Just needed a better char so it didn’t have the consistency of being steamed.
Both double burgers and 2 small sides of fries came to $30. I will likely not go back and wouldn’t really recommend it either, but everyone has different tastes.

I really want this place to succeed—the spacious dining area has a charming, nostalgic vibe that takes me right back to the 1960s. Unfortunately, my recent visit highlighted some areas that need improvement.
1. Food quality: I ordered the classic Harbor smashed burgers, which were unfortunately overcooked with burnt edges. The onion rings were decent, but several fried items I saw going to other tables also appeared overcooked and dark.
2. Hygiene concerns: The open kitchen is visible from the dining area, and I noticed several practices that raised red flags. None of the kitchen staff wore gloves while handling food. One cook was texting on his phone between tasks, and I didn’t see anyone wash their hands during my visit. Additionally, both cooks and counter staff were eating while working and then immediately handling customer orders and serving food.
3. Tipping policy: Like many counter-service spots, the payment terminal prompts for a tip before any service is provided. As someone who strongly dislikes this practice in fast-casual settings (where there’s no table service), it left a bad taste—especially when wondering how staff might react to skipped tips.
Overall, the concept and atmosphere have great potential. With some adjustments to cooking times, stricter hygiene protocols, and perhaps rethinking the tipping prompt, this could easily become a favorite spot. I’ll be rooting for improvements and would love to return once things are tightened up.

Cute and cozy spot that’s also big enough to handle large family gatherings. The staff is pleasant and the service is great. I’ve only tried the hamburgers and onion rings so far, but both were very good. Definitely a nice place for families to relax and enjoy a casual meal.

Good lil burger shack! Order at the counter and seat yourself, plenty of large tables for bigger groups. Good burgers and chicken, fun 60s decor

I really wanted this place to be amazing. The food was good, but not what I was expecting. For the price of the burgers they were small. Don’t expect a nice big, juicy burger.
We tried a bacon burger, regular cheeseburger and a chicken sandwich.
They were good, but not anything different or exceptional.
I love crinkle fries so I was partial to those, although they were very bland and we had to add salt. Sometimes I appreciate that so you control the amount, but they should have at least had some to start with.
The cheeseburger was flavorful, but it had more lettuce and onion than meat. The chicken was nicely fried and crispy but again, nothing special.
The building is fun and you can tell they have plans to expand into more desserts/products.
I wish I would have tried a shake because they did look delicious.

Fun smash burger place in the old Dexter shoe building. Counter service and number called type of place. There is a self service kiosk as well but for our first time we opted for the in person cashier. Friendly and patient. Burgers were very tasty with the expected smash griddle crust. Ordered the blue cheese version. Toppings were fresh and went well with the burger. I was expecting grilled onions but they were fresh red onion, my fault the menu lists onions not grilled/caramelized. Still delicious. Fries are ordered separately. 2 orders for 4 of were plenty. Tasty, crispy crinkle cut fries. They also have milkshakes but we did not order those. They looked great. Great place for a good shopping lunch or dinner.

This spot really delivers. The chili fries were loaded just right; flavorful, not greasy, and with the perfect amount of heat. The burgers were juicy and well-seasoned, cooked exactly how they should be and the shakes? Thick, rich, and easily some of the best I’ve had in a while.
The service was friendly, the place was clean, and everything came out fresh. Simple, solid food done right, definitely a five-star stop in my book.
