Wrong food
We both Ordered a chicken smash burger at the Denver airport. Gave us a crispy chicken sandwich. Told our server we didn’t order what she gave us. That we ordered the chicken smash burger. She said that’s what we got. I’m not sure if she thought we were stupid or what, but we know the difference between a a ground chicken burger and fried chicken. And it was dry. I had to choke it down with my beer without the bun.
Recommendation: Don’t go here

Read full review of SmashBurger and 1 commentKids Eat Free on Wednesday
My family decided to eat at Smashburger tonight, (9/20/23 5:27 PM), for dinner. We were 6 in total which included 2 grandchildren. We placed our order and paid the bill. We chose to eat out on the patio. When I reviewed the bill, I realized that I was charged full price for the kid's meals. Upon bringing it to the store manager's attention, he explained that I needed to tell him the 2 meals were for children and that some adults order kid's meals. When he served us on the patio, he certainly could see that there were 2 children in our party. I believe he should have requested my credit card and reimbursed me for the kid's meals. I would also like to say that the food was delicious and was enjoyed by all, but I don't believe that his response was acceptable.
Desired outcome: Please use your discretion.
About the Customer Service
We tried to order two double smash burgers, two large fries, and two single smash burgers at 7:35pm. The manager told us that it is going to take 1 1/2 hours to 2;00 hours to make. We said that is ok we would still like to order and we will come back to pick up our order. He said we close at 9:00 pm so we can’t take your order. I don’t think that was right...

Missing french fries and un-attentive servers.
I drove from Philadelphia to Drexel Hill on July 14, 2023 to get some burgers. I placed an order that came to a total of $68.27. When I got home with my order 2 items were missing (french fries). All though I asked my Host: Jesse to bag each order separately to avoid this happening he said okay but did not do it. At the time he as bagging my order wrong...

Went to Smash Burger Fashion Drive Columbia SC 6/9/23 for lunch. A group of us ordered online and I went to get the order. Lady at register was very helpful. I had to only wait about 10 minutes.

Dear smash burger, My husband and I have been loyal fans of your products since you opened in parts of Long Island NY, almost ten years ago. Over the past few years we have noticed many differences. Products are more salty and greasy and the menu changes frequently. Last time, at our local smashburger in Hicksville NY we were very disappointed. Upon...

Went to pick up waited for over 20 minutes when I noticed no one was in the kitchen or behind counter. I was waiting for my order to come up on order board, never did. I finally asked someone they said the board was not working even tho it had names on it. I asked they remake my order as it was cold. Still no one in kitchen. After waiting again and no cooks to remake I requested my money back. No one even cared or said sorry. VERY DISAPPOINTED

Attire and cleanliness of employee
I was at the 32nd and Youngfield Wheat Ridge CO on 4/16 at noon. The female employee at the register was friendly and dressed appropriately for customer engagement. Brian (I’m guessing the manager on duty) had very dirty jeans on that purposefully showed all customers his underwear. It was unpleasant to view while waiting for my take out order. I’m thinking...
Read full review of SmashBurgerSmashburger Chicken portion vs price
First, I would like to say the employees were extremely nice & professional, they helped us expeditiously and were very accommodating. when we received the meal it was hot and tasty but the size of the chicken vs the price was just not there. we paid 30.89 plus a 3.00 tip for the servers totaling 33.97 I did take a picture of the meal so I have it if you would like to see it. There were 13 Tator tots on my wife's plate and a small pile of onion strings on mine for which we paid 6.68 for these sides, plus 5.98 for 2 fountain drinks & 15.98 for two grilled chicken sandwiches that were anemic but tasty, they did not exceed the size of the bun. needless to say, spending $33.97 total for this lunch was not worth it & not worth a trip back too Smashburger.
we do like the food but this portion size & money has no justification for a return trip.
Desired outcome: Give us something to return to the store that will convince us that eating at your restaurant is worth the money and time & we would like to go back but this meal was not even close to what we get at other restaurants.
Bartender customer service
My husband and I had a layover in the Denver International Airport and thought we would have breakfast at the SmashBurger in the C Terminal (close to gate C48). We walked up and were first in line. We waited about 5-7 mins (without anyone acknowledging us) before I asked the female bartender if we should seat ourselves. She replied that another worker would be with us shortly. After another 5 mins (and the said “other worker” saw us twice and ignored us) I moved to see if I could flag someone down. At that time the female bartender yelled “Lady stay at the door! Can’t you see we are short handed?!” At that time my husband and I left. I was appalled at that type of behavior and will be sharing my experience with everyone I know!
Desired outcome: I am open to discussing further if needed. [protected]

Read full review of SmashBurgerSeemingly unaware of a fundraiser set for today
Store # 1744 2023 Welsh Road at 7:42 PM on February 23,2023
I went to Smashburger because of a fundraiser set up by the leadership of Hatboro-Horsham High School's Mini-THON club. I said that I was there for a DIne & Donate fundraiser for Hatboro-Horsham's Mini-THON and ordered. I was told by Farihah that "We don't have that here." My order was placed and paid for, but I contacted one of the leaders of the club. She sent to me the email's she had received regarding the fundraiser. I approached Farihah to question her about not having them here and she then said , "Oh, a fundraiser? Well since it is paid for there is nothing I can do now." I went to Smashburger because the company was donating 20% of the proceeds from those who made purchases and identified themselves as for the H-H Mini-THON fundraiser only to be disappointed in the service and the food.
The fries and burned burger that I received were cold upon receipt and my $28.05 was not credited to Mini-THON. This was my first trip to Smashburger. After the service and quality of food I received, I doubt I will be back.
I would appreciate someone reaching out to me, but sadly, do not expect that to happen. You got my money, afterall.

Sunday, January 22, 2023 about 2 pm
Always go to smashburger love the sweet potato fries and hamburgers, but this time ordered crispy chicken sandwich.

Wanted to complain at store, but no time.

missing item from oder
12/17/22 We ordered a food delivery from our local Smashburger. When it arrived, it was missing the apple pie shake which was the only drink in our order. I asked the driver before he left if it was maybe still in his car but he said no, there was no drink with the order. I've tried three times tonight to call the store to ask what I should do. But they are not answering the phone.
Desired outcome: Replace the item or a refund.
No bacon
I waited for almost an hour for my food. The cashier was rude. I ordered a avocado bacon chicken sandwich from smashburger and was disappointed. The chicken was small and there was no bacon. I paid almost ten dollars for a small chicken patty and no bacon. This the second time smashburger has mess up my order. I don’t know if I will ever order from smashburger again.
Read full review of SmashBurgerVeterans days promotion
I have never had a smash burger before and was looking forward to one on Veterans Day. My wife was driving me and a friend to get one only to find that it could be eaten in the dining area. That was not the way it was advertised. After being in the drive threw for 45 minutes we found out we had been misinformed. It required another 45 to get out on the road so we could leave. My friend and I are both disabled veterans. Wasted a lot of time to find out, let's call it misinformed and I seriously doubt that I will return to get that burger. We had left my wheel chair at home because it does not fit inside her car. There was no way could could have stood and waited. Time to go home. I hope you enjoyed lying to and screwing 2 disabled veterans in such a manner. You have my permission to go have sex with yourself.
Desired outcome: You figure this out for yourself.
Failed to refund my order
The Westerville, Ohio store failed to refund me for a shortage in my order. The manager said he could not do it, but would email me a coupon, then never sent the coupon. Now I am out $7. This store has a habit of leaving things out of my orders, but today I called them on it, and then get lied to. Terrible way to do business. My name is Jeff Hendrickson, 460 Foxtrail Cir E, Westerville, Ohio 43081, [protected]@gmail.com.
Desired outcome: Refund me for shorting me for an order of wings.
