Topping their legendary Cricket burger with green chile , an egg , and bacon is always a good choice. Wash it down with one of 23 beers on tap . Read more

I thought the waiter was crazy when he told me to order the Cricket Burger with bacon , cream cheese , jalapeño , and raspberry jam , but it may have been the most delicious burger I've ever had.

Terence Chan

Got the cricket with bacon ,BBQ sauce & pepper jack cheese w/frings. Burger was juicy and overall good. Wasn't blown away though. Good service . Free cricket brownie (6.46 value) on Foursquare 3.5/5

Barry Hott

Yes, you can get some wild toppings (cream cheese , raspberry jam , jalapeno ) and it's good, but a more traditional burger is where this place really shines.

Scented Studio

Absolutely Delicious! The bison burger is definitely a favorite, but ALL of their menu items are really amazing! The wait isn't too long and the staff is super friendly ! Always a pleasure visiting!

Kelly Weaver

Cricket Burger with Bacon , Cream Cheese , Jalapeño , and yes Raspberry Jam . Unreal. I was skeptical at the suggestion, but just go with it.

Denver Westword

Cherry Cricket is a classic burgers-and-beer kind of joint where the company is good, the coolers stocked and the burgers among the best in town . Great patio , too. Read more

Eater

It gives a comfortable atmosphere in the center of Cherry Creek, but it has elevated untraditional burger toppings like peanut butter , cream cheese & wing sauce to new heights. [Eater 38 Member]

Jeff Martens

Great burgers , good beer selection , nice outdoor patio . Serves food later than anything else in the neighborhood .

Lauren Marie

I'm from Chicago and everyone said this pace has the best burgers . Well we get there and there is a 20 min wait, while multiple tables are open, order a burger medium rare, comes back a hockey puck :(

Rayna

Go for happy hour , they have two a day. Wide variety of burger toppings, I get sour cream , raspberry jam , and grilled onions . Love their atomic wings too!

CITY GRIT

The Green Chili is some of the best in town . While fans rave about their burger , we went bananas over the Reuben ! Whatever you order, get a side of Frings !

Michael Tomkinson

Awesome, large burgers - very tasty, and customized to exactly what you want. Thin-cut fries are better seasoned than the steak-cut. Would recommend.

Shenia

The Cherry Cricket was on our bucket list of local places to try and it exceeded or expectations! The food was incredible and service was fast for as busy as they were.

PureWow

You’re the boss at this build-your-own-burger joint--you could even top your patty with grilled pineapple and peanut butter . (But, um, we wouldn’t recommend it.) Read more

Natalie

Their hot herbed artichoke dip is to die for. Super delicious. A bit of a dive but food and service is what keeps me coming back.

Joey Hernandez

great burger ! added bleu cheese , bacon , and green chile strips. foursquare hooked it up with a free brownie too!

Nathan Nicholas

Food was very good. Atmosphere was phenomenal. Made this Texan very happy. "20 minute wait" was more like 11-13. A+!

Chai Odom

A very tasty burger , and they know the proper way to cook it. Definitely take advantage of their many toppings.

Allison Kasic

They can do half baskets on the side, which is a great size for one person.

Michael C

Fantastic burgers and sandwiches ... great beer selection . Loved the hot, crispy onion rings and stellar fries . ???? ???? ????

Roberto Bruder Aguiar

They are known to be the best burger in Colorado. The patty is very juicy and I had mine with an egg , grilled onions and green chili sauce . It's good, but Texas burger joints are much better.

Justin Crivelli

One of the best burgers I've ever had. Do yourself a favor and go nuts with toppings like pb&j or cream cheese !

Usaj Realty

Always check out their burger of the month! It's always an amazing combination of delicious ingredients, and a great price!

Cheapism

This great neighborhood bar serves up a lot of food, including enchiladas , burgers and salads . If you’re headed there for happy hour it's from 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm and again from 10:00 pm - midnight. Read more

???? ???? and onion rings Fish taco ???? was great also. Nice casual atmosphere and perfect patio weather

Men's Health Mag

If you can handle it, order the half-pounder Cricket Burger . Then, ask them to slather on peanut butter and a fried egg . No, really. You'll have the world's most unforgettable, decadent burger .

Addison

Burgers are one of a kind, literally, since you make your own. I recommend getting the 1/4 burgers cause those are filling enough.

Megan Elizabeth

Everything is amazing. I always get a bunless burger with white cheddar and grilled onions with French fries .

Mike Le

Cricket Burger , the shakes, and the wings + stuffed peppers are all wonderful. Be prepared to wait on Saturday nights, though.

Erin G

Denver staple featured on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives; it's not hard to tell why once you arrive. Build your burger however you damn well please :)

David Pitts

Kitchen open till midnight! Buffalo burger is great, onion rings are really good as well . Solid beer specials too.

Saralynn McCauley

I'm eating a hamburger topped with peanut butter , jelly , avocado , onions , and pepper jack cheese ! Where else could you get such toppings?

Scoutmob

In 1945, Cherry Cricket opened as "Mary Zimmerman's Bar " and the bar was actually the living room of her home, which sat where the Sears Auto Center is today. We say that's a downgrade.

The BigB

Really fantastic Burgers ! I’m not into hyping but this place gives you value for money . Worth every cent!

Elsbeth Thurston

Mash puppies are great and peanut butter and fried egg burger is a must try!

Heather M

Best burgers in cherry creek! The herbed cream cheese is the best and wing sauce+fries=amazzzzing!!

Serious Eats

The Cricket can get crazy crowded . You may be able to skirt the wait list by asking to sit at the back bar .

Tish Szurek

While the burgers and onion rings are great, my go-to order is the pork green chile stew

Brian Tran

Saw this place on Man vs. Food and had to come try it. The Cricket burger was really good here!

Matthew Lopez

Some say it's the best burger in town . I would rate it high, but there are other greats in town too.

James Schofield

Amazing burgers , you can pick and choose from a huge list of ingredients, even a fried egg . Great selection at the bar . Phenomenal burger restaurant !

Matt Dickman

Ask for DJ Johnny O. He will charm and seduce you as you taste the magic of a cricket burger topped with jalapeños , cream cheese , and love. DJ Johnny O will smile and make you comfortable , oh so comfy

Aaron Allon

Denver mainstay. Excellent dive bar / sports bar . Get the Cricket Burger with America cheese

Jackal

Get the Cricket Burger add pepper jack cheese , bacon , BBQ sauce and don't forget to get a basket of onion rings !! +9,000 internets if you can finish it all.

Valdir Silva Jr

This place is amazing. The burgers are great and the atmosphere is nice. Go for it.

Natalie

The gyro sub is delicious. Very laid back relaxed atmosphere and good prices for great food.
