What Haylee Reilly doesn't like about Arctic Road Runner:
What year is it? It’s still CASH ONLY. The food was ok. Burger wasn’t very good but their homemade onion rings were pretty good. I’m originally from the south but I think I’ve finally come to terms that there aren’t a lot of great burger places in Alaska (ex. Five Guys, Fuddrucker’s, etc. . If I had to recommend one burger place, Tommy’s Burger Stop would be your best bet. View all feedback. What Nicole B likes about Arctic Road Runner:
We found this place by accident when driving around Anchorage hungry. We decided to stop. We didn't realize it was cash only till we were inside and ready to order. Luckily we had enough cash. The burger, halibut burger and salmon burgers were all pretty good and decent sized. We didn't leave hungry. If you want a nice sized, decent tasting burger, or want a better priced halibut or salmon burger, then this is a good... View all feedback.

Burgers were a mystery based on name alone. With that stated they weren't bad. Sadly enough, that and the service is where the positives stop. Shakes were vanil...

Excellent food, great service. My favorite stop for a burger!

Tommy's Burger Stop in Alaska offers a mixed experience, with some diners enjoying the homemade onion rings and juicy burgers, while others find the food to be just okay. The history of the restaurant adds to its charm, but some visitors feel let down by overly salty burgers and burnt onion rings. Despite a cash-only policy and inconsistent service, Arctic Roadrunner is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike, offering delicious cheeseburgers, halibut burgers, and unique pickle options. The restaurant's outdoor seating and creek view add to the overall dining experience, making it a hidden gem worth seeking out in Anchorage.

Two locations for great burgers. Proud of their prices as I think it’s an expensive place to eat. Worth trying.
