Best Burgers in OKC

Also, scratch my earlier comment about Arnold's in Tulsa. A repeat visit was not as good. I mean, still a very good drug-store burger, but not the mouthwatering version I had a few months ago.

Claud's or Webber's are my wife and I's choice for Tulsa burgers. I'm a Claud's feller and she's a Webber's gal. Different strokes. Both very good burgers last we checked (which has been awhile).

Does Weber's make their own Root Beer?

Yes they do. I just saw that the 5th generation is took the helm in the beginning of 2022. I haven't been since then, but I'd figure being the 5th generation of the family ownership sounds promising.

Good deal, I will put it on the list for our next trip to Tulsa.

I hate it when that happens. I grew up in the Tulsa area and Harden's was the place to go to. The best burger I ever had and you couldn't tell me otherwise. This was in the late 80's, early 90's. Went back six years ago to their new location and it wasn't anything like I remembered it. My friend that I went with said it went downhill, but it might have been that my tastes changed as well.

My vote is ROBERT'S in El Reno. Has a better vibe and the prices are a little better.
The counter only sitting seems more authentic in capturing that early 20th century lunch place. SID'S and JOHNNIES lack that ambiance.

I like Robert's, too. Ambiance is one thing (Sid's is just fine), but you probably can't go wrong at any of the El Reno joints for burgers.

that store next to the crows roost bar at fort cobb by the motel has awesome burgers. I have an aunt that lives on the lake and every time we go there we get a burger.

been a few years since I've been wonder if it is still there?

Are you talking about the Ski-Boy? They're okay, really there is no competition for them. The last couple of times we were out there the service has been super slow and not the most friendly.

not sure what the name is but its right next to the crows roost and next to the little motel.

I've always thought that was an amazing burger

edit: no it is not ski boy the place I am talking about is at the lake by the bar which is by the motel called easter's side motel

thought it was fort cobb lake store but that isn't it oh well

Oh, I know what you are talking about now. I haven't had that place. The Ski-Boy is actually south of the lake as you get into Fort Cobb town. My wife, who grew up in western OK, has no recollection of a place next to that bar. She has only ever known of getting burgers at the Ski-Boy when at Fort Cobb Lake

the only reason I know about it is because I've stayed at the motel next to the little dive bar that is next to the store and they have breakfast etc and would let me order a cheeseburger for breakfast but like i said it has been years since I've been.

Just talked to my aunt that lives in at the lake and she said it was called the crows roost store which is no longer there

I remember a place that burned down maybe that was it

I had a burger from Nics on Robinson with my brother and his wife he said the original Nics was way better and I thought the burger at Nics place was really good.

I really want to try the onion burger at the original Nics

Tuckers hot and fresh





Perfectly caramelized onions!

[Plutonic Panda]

I just had for the first time and onion burger at Nick‘s off of Pennsylvania. That was a f@cking burger. One of the best I’ve ever had. It might just be the best burger I’ve had to date.

I still contend the burger I had at Bunny’s pretty good. Nowhere near Nics though. I plan on trying Sids tomorrow on my way out.

Awesome, looking forward to trying both places

Someone who gets too much credit made a list of the Best Burgers in OKC for VisitOKC.com. He seems to omit a certain local favorite, making me wonder what everyone else thinks. It also makes me wonder why he has beef, pun intended, with the omitted location.

Which place are you referring to? He put out a list on twitter not that long ago and excluded Nic's, which I found very odd. It made its way onto this list though.

I am also struggling to figure out what local favorite place he left off. He hit everybody in my regular rotation around here. Maybe, we can get a response and I will feel bad about forgetting someone. I sure hope the response is not about S&B, Tucker's, or The Garage.

my guess is New State which I think is up there with the very best in OKC

New State when it opened felt like a poor impersonation of Au Cheval. You are saying it is worth another shot?

[OkieBerto]

It looks like my responses were deleted. I was speaking of New State. I think it is my favorite burger in town, even if it isn't the style of a traditional Oklahoma Burger. I have never been to Au Cheval, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were inspired by a certain restaurant.

[onthestrip]

For sure New State has one of the best normal burgers in the city. I say normal as in non-specialty, not lots of toppings type of burger.

Shenanigans abound in food reviews. Even Bar Arbolada's burger hype came from someone locally who had a connection with Alton Brown, or at least thats what I was told.

I mean, but the hype was totally worth it when I went. I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was given the hype, but well deserved.

Still doesn't beat the BLC at Spark nor an on point Tucker's burger.

I've been to New State twice and I just don't know what to order. Texas Toast is a non-starter which eliminates 40% of their beef-burger options. I don't understand that place for $10+ a burger...at all
