Easy to order with plenty of options. Just walk right in, grab a menu, order at the counter, wait for them to call your name over the PA, and enjoy. doesn't get any easier than that. I liked that there were plenty of seating options both inside and outside. It's got a nice college town vibe to it. The food was great, they got the Nashville hot chicken right. plus there are actually a lot of vegetarian options.

I finally got a chance to compare this BS to the Topeka BS and let me tell you, both are absolutely fantastic! Food: I am so picky about burger buns, not too hard, not too squishy, they must be just right. This place does just that plus they are so warm and fresh. Service: I appreciate staff who take the time to see if you have everything you need even though you are responsible for getting your own sauces (omg the sauces are out of this world). Ambiance: very upbeat and friendly people who are here to enjoy food. Next to a couple of my favorite places here I will definitely return.

I've been coming to the Burger Stand since they opened way back in the day and I was still a student at KU. I have to say that as far as consistency goes, they are one of those places that has so far managed to really maintain their commitment to quality and remain unchanged in the best ways possible for over a decade. The truffle fries are still amongst the best french fries really within driving distance of Kansas City, the dipping sauces alone would bring me back, but the fries are great solo as well. The burgers are insanely good. Every single one I've had has hit the spot. AND, they still have a great tap list, and casual ambiance that makes this place sing. Ever since covid they opened up a patio in the front which is where we sat on our most recent visit, and it was honestly great, especially for kids as it was a bit less loud, and if a kid dropped a fry on the ground there was a fat and happy squirrel nearby ready to pick it up. Overall, I'm so grateful this place is still as wonderful as it was when I was in my twenties, and I'm sure we'll be back.

Dinner last night at the Burger Stand at the Casbah. We had a burger that we customized huge burger cooked perfectly. I added some spicy hot habanero relish. I got the side of cheese, bacon fries, and it was enough to feed four people and my buddy got fries and a beer. I got a Butterfinger milkshake. Everything was really great and not having things like normal mayonnaise. I like it.

Once again this place is stellar. I LOVE The Smoke Burger. I can't describe all the wonderful flavors - because I already did that in a review. :P The truffles french fries are more than worth getting and not sharing. Whenever I go to a concert in Lawrence I look forward to going to The Burger Stand.

We went today for a Bingo event and had such a great time with our hosts Marie Queerie and Karma. I had a drink called "Listen Linda" which was a very refreshing tequila drink. After Bingo and a couple of drinks we had dinner...a couple of sammys and fries. I got aburger called Muenster Smash with fresh jalapeños and cheese and fixins. Forgot the pics. Hubby got the catfish sandwich. Everything was delicious and fun. This place has 3 levels and is very cool with brick/ limestone walls wood staircase and accents. When ordering you walk to the counter. No table service.

My husband and I dropped off our daughter at KU this weekend. We decided to grab a bit to eat and shop a little down town. We love how downtown keeps a lot of the older architecture and reuses a lot of the old shops and buildings to house new ships or even restaurants. We visited the Casbah Bar burgerstand and it was a joy. There are 3 levels, you place your order at the bar and pick it up when your name is called. They have plenty of sauces to enjoy with your basket side order or on your hand held. They have a little something for everyone including the kids. We were tempted to try the shakes, but maybe next visit. I enjoyed the Kobe burger my husband had the Smoke burger and we split a basket of regular fries. The basket sides are big enough to share. There was one sauce we were curious about, the marshmallow sauce. Yes marshmallow sauce. It is supposed to go good with their sweet potato fries. We tasted it on its own. It had good taste (rice krispie treats) but was too sweet for the regular fries. We will definitely be back to try more of their tatsy menu.

Grabbed a burger "Kobe" and fries. They were both decent, I like having the extra fry dipping sauces but the food was just ok. Not much of a WOW factor. We typically only go to Lawrence for events and we had a graduation to attend, so wanted something new.

I always try to stop in at the burger stand when I'm in LFK. First, they have an awesome tap list. They have so many great craft beers on tap. They usually have some pretty hard to find ones so definitely check that out to start. They also do monthly specials with a variety of items and the creativity is outstanding. If one of the specials looks interesting, I usually try it. A few years ago, I tried the Elvis burger complete with bacon, peanut butter, and banana pudding. Sounds super weird but was so good! This time I tried the September specials The Pear Nut-cessities. It consisted of a Salt Creek beef patty topped with grilled pickled pears, a walnut miso sauce, greens, and whole walnuts. It was good. Not as good as the Elvis but still good. My standard menu favorites include: The Black and Blue Burger with Blue cheese, granny smith apple chutney & assorted greens. The chutney is *chefs kiss*. The Barnyard Bash-Fried chicken breast with sliced avocado, applewood smoke bacon, swiss cheese, spicy honey mustard bbq sauce & assorted greens. This is one of my all time favorite chicken sandwiches. And last but not least the Smoke Burger with Applewood smoked bacon, gouda cheese & chipotle-cocoa ketchup. So savory and rich. The sweet potato fries are also a favorite. A side is huge but they have a larger size that could accommodate two people easily. They offer a variety of sauces. I like the aioli. A fun one is the marshmallow. It's good with the sweet potato fries but it is a little sweet for my palate. The offer shakes, kids meals, hot dogs, salads, veggie burgers and even gluten free buns so I feel confident in saying that there is something for everyone. Something that I think is cool (but I'm sure a bit controversial depending on who you ask) is the hospitality fee. 15% is automatically charged to each ticket and is goes towards providing a higher livable base wage and to expand benefits like health insurance, sick pay, and parental leave. It is NOT gratuity! I'm assuming they went this route instead of raising the menu prices to offset the cost and I'm here for it.
