GoldBurgers — Restaurant in Newington

(Last visited March 9, 2025.) GoldBurgers is everything you want a straightforward burger place to be! Here's why GoldBurgers is one of my favorite burger places in existence!

Atmosphere/Appearance: Located right on Main Street in "downtown" Newington is this gem worthy of the name! There's parking spots along the front of the place, some more further down in front of other places and of course the big parking lot behind the spot. Once inside it's pretty straightforward. There are some tables right up against the window then there's the counter where you order. After that it's all tables and stuff. It felt like a nice, family-friendly atmosphere.

Service: There isn't table service so you just order at the counter and the food gets brought out to you, no big deal. Easy-peasy. It fits with the esthetic of the restaurant and works well.

Food: I've had quite a few things from GoldBurgers and they're ALL delicious. Above the counter is the vast menu with all of the options from juicy burgers, chicken burgers, falafels, hot dogs, sweet potato fries and the like. However, at eye-level there's a chalk board where the specials are! That's what you want! Those specials constantly rotate and they're all based off of movies! My latest acquisition was an incredibly spicy chicken cheesesteak based off the movie Hoosiers! So freaking good, filling and just hit the spot! I've had double-burgers here that had potato chips on it, chicken burgers and this place just does not miss!

Value: It feels like an old-school burger joint so you won't pay more than $13.00 for a burger, but they don't come with a side. They're all separate, but you can make a combo out of almost anything. Super affordable food.

In conclusion, I feel guilty for not coming here more often! Lol. That's it. I wish I did, but I will make an effort to come on...

This small restaurant located in the center of town is one busy place. After eating there, I now know why. First two somewhat negatives. Parking anywhere near the front of this place is (depending on the time of the day) almost impossible. To compensate for this, there is a parking lot behind the businesses on main st. Second, dining inside can be impossible due to limited space. If the weather is cooperative, there is an outside dining area. BUT, don't let these stop you from trying Goldburgers. There food is outstanding and their pricing is right on for what you get. The counter person is very friendly, informative and very efficient. Although there was a line she moved them along quickly. On this day, we ordered Mac squares (mac & cheese, breaded and deep fried) and sweet potatoes French fries. It come with a delicious, spicy dipping sauce. We were able to find a table indoor and our order was ready within 10 minutes. Cooking is done when order is placed. The dipping sauce for me, was to kill for. For me it enhanced every part of the meal. But even without dipping, the food was delicious. We've been going there for sometime and will continue to do so. I strongly recommend Goldburgers for everyone who wants to try something other than the big burger places and be treated to an...

When you convince your parents to get you McDonald's, they'll most likely tell you that "we have Mickey D's at home!".

If you want fresh and really good Mickey D's, then try Goldburgers. Trust me, it is a solid choice over super-sized fast food for their good quality hamburger.

I went here myself for the first time last Friday and let me tell you here... It is almost like fast food but it indeed is quick-service and for only a "thrifty" price, you can build in / customize a hamburger the way you want. Want pickles? They're really good. Want chips in your hamburger? Yes, they do put potato chips on your hamburger patty. Seriously, they actually do that. May seem odd to some but that's the way I like it.

I had a Bacon Cheeseburger with pickles and potato chips on that sandwich and it actually was really good. Although not enough seating inside, there were plenty of outdoor seating during that beautiful Friday evening. Jill (waitress) is a wonderful lady who took time to provide us food and customer service. What a pleasant experience.

I'd rather patronize this restaurant over fast food any day. Now that's fresh and really good McDonald's hamburgers that you would expect at...
