Bun Huggers

I’m surprised by many of the negative reviews. With the burgers we ordered, the missing build your own bar isn’t relevant (ie grilled onions and chilis). The size of the burger is 1/2 pound. As far as how they’re cooked, tell them what you want when you order them. This is one of the best burgers in Flagstaff. The burgers are huge and there are many options to choose from. Service was fast and friendly. My only suggestion is to include a side. We sat in the bar section with pool tables, shuffleboard, darts and several TVs. There is also more of a family friendly restaurant area on the other side.

I was a big fan of Bun Huggers back in the 80’s. I was nervous to try it again 40+ years later, because the reviews were mixed. So glad we tried it for lunch today. The interior seating was virtually the same, but you can’t see them making the burgers anymore. The burgers seemed bigger with more variety of options, and they had the same charbroiled taste. The zucchini was good, but not the same style as the original. Some people have complained in their reviews that the prices are too high, but honestly where can you buy lunch for less than $20 these days? And of course the dress your own burger station is gone. I’m sure that was a product of COVID!

It's a fun Flagstaff "landmark." There used to be two many years ago, but now it's just the original. The decor hasn't changed, which is great. It's very eclectic. It is connected to the next door bar which almost has the look and especially the feel of "Cheers," the TV show bar. The best thing is to order food in the restaurant and have it "delivered" to the bar, because the bar has great "bar games," I e. table shuffleboard, darts, and a pool table, plus a jukebox. The restaurant is very family friendly and serves very good food, cooked to order.

All around a great place to grab a bar style burger with the family. We tried out the mushroom burger, it was great except they were weak on the burger sauce so next time I’ll just ask for mayo. My daughter got the patty melt and agreed it was good but too light on the burger sauce, my husband did a grilled chicken with green chili and that was awesome! Fries were really great and the ranch was fantastic. I liked how easy it was to walk up and order, plenty of seating and easy to hear your number being called. Next time I’m in town and want a burger this will be the spot.

My wife and I had the best experience with the bartender Jackson! He couldn’t have been nicer and more accommodating. It was a slow Tuesday night and in our conversation we mentioned it was our dogs birthday and she was in the truck( ac on). Without hesitation he said we’ll bring her in. He proceeded to get fresh cooked bacon for our dogs birthday. We will definitely be back and hope Jackson is there as well!

I was sad to see that this restaurant has made some changes to it’s original set up. As we walked into the bar /lounge to grab a drink and a burger we were not greeted at all. We finally inquired if we could sit in the bar but order a burger in which the bartender replied “I think so” and then continued to not serve us (we were seated in a booth). After a minute or two, I asked if we could walk to the restaurant and bring a drink to the other side, she did say that was ok but again, didn’t offer to assist us. (Very weird) When we walked to the restaurant, we again, we’re not greeted. As a matter of fact, there was nobody even in the restaurant. We looked at the menu for a while, and then somebody finally came in from the outside. At this point, the staff was friendly, although the person taking our order didn’t know answers to simple questions about the menu. In the end, the burgers were good. The zucchini is not as good as I recall it being (seemed to be a frozen dish as opposed to the fresh product it used to be) and the fries have changed, but they were good. The burgers themselves were fresh and prepared well. The service just lacked completely. We both assumed that this is a new staff under a new owner and just need some time learning the menu etc. Hopefully that’s the case.
