Nestled close to the beach, this charming burger joint captures the essence of casual dining with its delicious milkshakes and burgers. While the menu features solid options like crispy fries and onion rings, diner experiences can vary; some patrons note service issues and a cash-only policy that may deter potential customers. The atmosphere benefits from outdoor seating and stunning views, making it a popular spot for families and beachgoers alike. Though the food isn't gourmet, it offers a nostalgic feel with reasonable prices, ensuring a satisfying culinary quick stop after a day in the sun.

A must when in Carpentaria. Everything is so good and the staff is so beautiful. I get something different every time. This time was a cheeseburger and small side of Chili-Käsefries.

Great burgers. Have that backyard bbq taste flavor. Well worth it. One star off because they only take cash and the staff could use some lessons in good attitude towards each other and the customer.

Onion rings are awesome, crispy and oh so delicious. Service is always spot on. The chili cheese burger is super delicious, heavy in the onion but I don't mind one bit. Yummy worth the drive!
