Family and I had some time to to explore Birmingham before our flight home so we drove aimlessly around and first stumbled across Gatos & Beans (I did a complete review on that wonderful location). Emily recommended Joyland for a bite to eat as her establishment mainly served coffee and snacks.

Oh my GOSH, what a positive, upbeat, and tasty experience.

Joyland primarily serves Breakfast, Burgers, Hotdogs, drinks (they also have an impressively stocked bar,) and desserts.

The atmosphere is upbeat, friendly and inclusive. It gives off more of an eatery vibe than bar.

The menu has Gluten Free, and Vegetarian options. (I didn’t ask about vegan, sorry). Their crinkle cut fries are GF, crispy, and tasty.

The Cashier/server who helped us was Garret, Jake the General Manager also helped keep our order super fast and smooth.

When I again visit Birmingham, Joyland is already on my list of things to do.

Stopped by for a review on their Joyland Deluxe cheeseburger and was talked into trying their Crust Burger also. You can find me on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook under Bama Burger Reviews. The Joyland Deluxe is a fantastic burger. The Crust Burger leaves a little to be desired. Check out my social media for the full video review!

Ordered online. The location was once the original Rodney Scott BBQ. I love that this restaurant management chain is investing by delivering quality food to the Birmingham area.

On to the food, the Hamburger is old school smash burger cooked to perfection. The sauce is your mom’s version of French Dressing made with Mayo and ketchup minus the relish. The only slight issue was the onions. I would have preferred the option to have grilled onions but nonetheless it still added that much needed component of onion flavor to the sandwich. The bun was a brioche style and It carried the top notch quality of a Hero bun. It beats the old school white bread option
For $10 that sandwich was a meal initself with double patties and melted cheese. For all the quality ingredients used to create the sandwich, it’s well worth it.

Fries, OMG, it was a large size of back in the Day French fries. A hot crispy outer shell filled with mushy potatoes. It was a perfect french fry.

The shake was okay. It was made with soft serve ice cream.

The dessert, Fried Pie was described as Strawberry swirled in Cheesecake. It tasted like apple but it was still delicious. It would be great to have a Fall option such as a sweet potato or pumpkin filling in that buttery crispy crust.

Overall, the food was delicious and if you want a quality burger this location delivers.

10th visit (Sept 2025)…. still one of my favorite burger places around Birmingham!!!

3rd visit (July 2025)… all I can say is I wish I lived closer to this restaurant. Ordered a Joy Burger Deluxe with Fancy Sauce, curly fries, peach pie, and sweet tea. Customer service (Deliesha) 10/10. Great atmosphere and excellent burger! Soft serve ice cream is great as well!

First time visit….What a fantastic little burger place. First time visit. A buddy and I met there for lunch on a Tuesday. Not very busy when we walked in but business picked up soon after. I wasn’t sure what to order, and told the female cashier I had never been there. She was very friendly and offered several suggestions. I went with a double burger, with sauce on the side, not knowing if I’d like it. The burger, fries and sweet tea were all great. Definitely will return soon.

I was in Birmingham for work and was looking for a good place to eat. I came to Joyland not knowing what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. The burger was amazing the crust on the patty elevated the experience. The house made sauces were delightful. I would definitely come back if I’m in the area.

I had plans to meet some people near here, and the restaurant at the place we were meeting didn’t have anyone there, so I came here. I’m so glad I did! The food is amazing, the service is greet, and the atmosphere is hip. Five stars for sure! I got the double crust burger and it was phenomenal.

As I have been traveling around Central Alabama searching for the best hamburger, I came across Joyland. I loved the atmosphere with bright primary colors and lots of light. The restaurant was clean. Fun music was playing. All of the employees were delightful and helpful.
I ordered the Joyland Deluxe, as I was told it was the creation of the owner. The $10 double smashed patty cheeseburger hit the spot. There was plenty of meat on a tiny bun. I like to go low-carb. I would’ve given this craft burger five Stars, but it came with low star Kraft with a K cheese. Ordinary cheese does not make an extraordinary burger. The Joyland sauce could’ve used more flavors, but maybe they didn’t put enough on mine.
My overall experience was a four Star. I will continue my journey looking for that five star hamburger creation.

There’s not much you can do from a review because people are angry when they get on here, but I was just unbelievably disappointed, I have been following this place from Kentucky. We came all the way from Kentucky to be able to try it and when we went to pick up curbside because they offered it when we ordered online, I stood inside for a good 10 to 15 minutes before anyone said even a single word to me then from behind me outside comes in which I’m assuming is the owner I think he was about 15, and he was incredibly rude and said that we don’t have curbside, and I said then why do you offer it? He said I’m addressing that right now. apparently, the guy next to us waiting curbside had the very same issue in Bald the little dude out before he came in and so he took it out on me. Great food, unbelievably unbelievably horrible unprofessional service. If you don’t go inside, it’s great, but apparently you can’t get your food unless you go inside so seems like he’s gonna have a little bit of an issue now. Wow, all the way from Lexington, Kentucky………. What a way to handle your online customers I can’t wait to do a TikTok on this. And if you think these reviews don’t matter little fella, look at how many people follow my reviews.
Oh, forgot to say there are signs in front of the building two parking spots that say carry out curbside. So thanks for taking it out on me little fella.
