Frank's Burger-Licious BBQ in Gera

We were at a tournament in Gera as a team and someone recommended “Frank's Burger” to us. So we called and asked if there was “spontaneous” space for “15 people”... we were lucky.🥳 Let's go, the reception was very friendly and a large table was prepared for our team in the middle of the restaurant. Orders with large groups are usually always a problem, but not with this service person 💪🏽, friendly, calm and coordinated so everything was perfect. When we ordered we were told there would be a longer waiting time (Saturday evening and Frank's Burger was full to the last table) we were also surprised here, I didn't time it but I would say 30 minutes for 15 portions of burger and fries is a good one. very good time. The Taste: The burger was delicious. Just the way I like him. The bun was fluffy, the patty was juicy and the toppings were rich. My burger also came with sweet potato fries, these were the best I've had in a very long time.🍔 A small negative thing that can happen with such a large order was that we had ordered nachos as a starter, but unfortunately they came with the main course. But it was still a perfect end to a long day of tournaments. 💪🏽🤩 So my conclusion is - go there (reserve in advance), enjoy the delicious food and go home happy. If I'm in Gera again as a team or alone, Frank's Burger will be visited. 💪🏽

Great restaurant with a great atmosphere, very good food and great service. Also, praise goes to waiter Enrico, he made our evening sweeter

The selection of veggie burgers could be a little larger, but the service was really great. Super fun and friendly service and great ambience!

This was by far the best burger of our lives. Unfortunately we don't live in town and can't eat there regularly, otherwise we would be regulars. We can really only recommend it.

We were here for dinner today. All the burgers were fantastic.

I'm really sorry that I can only give two stars. Frank's Burger-Licious has declined a lot at that time. The prices went up, the burgers got smaller and the quality of the food also dropped a lot. We've always really enjoyed eating here, but will now go to Louis Diner again. I advise against the chili con carne. It looked terrible and unfortunately that's how it tasted. The owner's dog running loose in the restaurant is not for everyone. Maybe something like that should be reconsidered.

There were 6 people. Everyone ordered something different. The food was very, very good for everyone. The veggie burger and the chicken tasted particularly good. Service nice. Food came quickly. Prices reasonable. Toilets clean.

Very tasty burgers, the fries and chips are also perfect!!! When it's full it's quite loud. The service is very good and super friendly!!!

All good 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍

Good shop, nice owner, cute labrador. If I hadn't ordered the blue cheeseburger but a normal cheeseburger then my rating would definitely be better, but blue cheese is probably not my thing.

Katastrophe wie ich Sie noch nie erlebt habe. Wir wollten als Familie mit unserem 7 Monate alten Baby zu Mittagessen. Wie wahrscheinlich in den meisten Familien üblich, hatte wir unseren Babybrei mit. Als die Bedienung dies gesehen hat, wurden wir darauf hingewiesen, dass mit gebrachte Speisen nicht verzehrt werden dürfen. Prinzipiellerweise können wir das ja verstehen, aber trotz freundlicher Aussage, dass es sich um lediglich das Essen für ein Baby handelt, wurde seitens der Bedienung klar und nur bedingt freundlich gesagt, dass dies nicht erlaubt sei. Wir haben daraufhin umgehend das Restaurant verlassen. So einen Umgang mit Gästen habe ich in meinem Leben noch nie erlebt. Über die Qualität der Speisen kann ich leider nichts sagen....

We were there today as a family with a baby and wanted to have lunch. As usual, we had baby food with us for our little one. When the service saw that we had only brought porridge for a baby, we were asked to put it away and when we asked what the little one should eat, they said that was just the way it was. We then left the restaurant immediately. We can't say anything about the quality of the food; we've never experienced friendliness and service on such an underground level.

I had dinner with two colleagues on Saturday October 5th, 2024 at around 6:15 p.m. and as always everything was great, we will definitely come back to eat with you. Best American citizen in Gera

Absolute recommendation in Gera!!! The burger was simply delicious!!! Not a long wait. Very friendly service :)

Great store with friendly staff… The food was very tasty, unfortunately the pulled pork was too spicy for my taste, but you can't please everyone :) All in all, we will definitely come back.👍🏼

I can only recommend it to anyone who would like to eat a good citizen ❤️. Not exactly cheap but even more awesome. 👌😋

Very nice atmosphere! The service is very friendly and patient, and is happy to give advice. The burgers taste very good, nice selection.

Lovely outside area nice calm chilled atmosphere staff were well manned, father and daughter run restaurant good family vibe!

The burgers were absolutely delicious! The pulled pork tastes great smoked and the chips are really crispy! The bun is made with lots of sesame and is simply fluffy! Definitely not one size fits all! Homemade lemonade also tastes fresh and fruity. The atmosphere in the old train station also has something rustic and the service is friendly and attentive. Can be recommended with all conscience

Unfortunately I can't say much positive things this time. A burger with fries was ordered to be picked up. However, no food was ready at the stated pick-up time - you still had to wait 20 minutes, even though the shop was empty. In addition, the fries were almost inedible. We only had a short trip home of less than 10 minutes, the fries were like they weren't fried properly and were cold. The burger was ok, but nothing more.

Best burger in Gera and far beyond, friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

We ordered via Uber Eats today and picked up the food. It was written that it would be ready at 7:07 p.m., which unfortunately wasn't the case. It was finished around 7:30 p.m. But that's not even the worst thing, it's that one of our burgers was forgotten. That means we only got one of 2 burgers. When my boyfriend was home, we noticed this and he had to go there again 😤 Accordingly, the fries were unfortunately sticky and no longer as crispy. And unfortunately they aren't that cheap either. We could have been offered something as an apology, but nothing came except "sorry, it's stressful today." It's a shame, it makes you think twice about ordering there again.

Great, keep it up. Can you go, RECOMMENDED 👍🏻👊🏻

Had dinner once. Nice atmosphere, unfortunately there is only one vegan dish, but it was very, very good! If you're in the area again, you'll be happy to come back 😀

I was there on a Monday lunchtime, was able to park right in front of the building and had a full choice of spaces. The service was top and even though I was (unfortunately) the only one there, not intrusive. My food came promptly and I can absolutely recommend the Chili Cheese Fries (Small) and also the Mexican Cheeseburger (Junior). Unfortunately I was just passing through, but I'd love to come back again. Please keep it up!

Four of us were there on Saturday evening and sat outside. I have nothing to complain about. The food was really delicious. We've eaten there several times and we've always enjoyed it. Kudos to the kitchen.

Delicious burgers, fries and coleslaw! Friendly, attentive service. I'd love to come back then.

It was always very tasty, vegetarian excellent

Very tasty veggie burger! We recommend. The normal burgers also taste great. Price-performance is also right.

I tried the place. Am satisfied. Staff very friendly. Food is also good, you have to try it, some things are a matter of taste, but good.

I was just nearby and thought to myself, go get something to eat, said done. Friendly staff ✅ Delicious food ✅ Rustic train station atmosphere ✅ I think it's nice and cozy, especially in winter the wood burning will definitely add a little extra and it will be really homely 🥰 All in all, I can highly recommend and will visit Frank's again if I have the opportunity.

I don't want to judge what the food is like. It is a 0 star rating. My child and I came to the restaurant, which was almost empty. Everything smelled smoked because the smoker is right at the exit to the courtyard. When we sat down, the table was first cleaned of leftover food. Suddenly the boss's wife (?) came through the store with her dog, off a leash!!! He ran towards my daughter and jumped up on her chair. She wasn't prepared for this and tried to escape into my chair. She screamed like crazy, the menus flew around... the dog was caught again. My daughter was shaking and couldn't calm down. Unfortunately, we were ignored after this action. There was no apology, no conversation, even though we sat for a while as I tried to calm my child down. Terrible. For us, this store was over. You don't treat guests like that. Free-roaming dogs have no place in a restaurant!!!!

Good food & nice service in an old train station. We'd love to come back!

Perfect as always and has been for years now.... Top restaurateur 👍

Unfortunately, one star is still too many here. We didn't like it here at all and didn't particularly taste it either. We had received a voucher and therefore tried the restaurant. We received the information that vouchers were no longer being accepted and yet the 80 euro voucher was deducted from us without charging anything. Conclusion once and never again.

We regularly go to Frank's and eat a monster citizen! In terms of taste, it never disappointed. The last one in April was definitely a taste highlight. Very good burger that looks for its congruence. Definitely recommended if 4+ people are hungry. The ambience doesn't disappoint either! It is in the old Südbahnhof and has a beautifully rustic interior. It's pleasant to eat there. I cannot rate other dishes from Frank's.

There is nothing wrong with the location, staff or food! Attention to detail is clearly visible and we always strive to further optimize 👍

Very nice service. The food is also delivered quickly and tastes good.

They really do have the tastiest burgers in town!

Absolute recommendation if you want to eat a typical American burger, and not what some people think it is. Frank is simply a veteran and super personable, the food, as I said, is simply good, and I have yet to find a better coleslaw in Germany.

Interesting location that, as the boss reports with beaming eyes, has a lot to tell. Very courteous, competent and super friendly employees and a charming, warm boss who has lived and is living an admirable life. A great menu and super delicious food. Highly recommended because the price-performance ratio is also right. We'd love to come back. Keep it up🍀👌👍

Great taste. Reasonably priced. Staff friendly.

Food was okay, prices were too high. Ambience okay, a bit deserted and the table was stuck :/

The food is great, but I absolutely can't recommend Frank's if you're planning an event/party there. I've been to Frank's several times with my friends and we thought the place was great and so we planned to have a birthday party there together. We coordinated this with the restaurant 3/4 years in advance and received a confirmation of the date, combined with the request that we clarify the details about 1 month in advance. However, when it came to clarifying the details in question, our contact person no longer seemed to be really interested, even though we and our guests had filled the restaurant for an entire evening and the price quoted was in the upper category. After only 2 offers, some of which had outrageous/unusual content, the restaurant turned us down because the negotiations would be “too much”. We were extremely “offended” by this. In the end, our party, to which we had invited many people from outside, was canceled, which was very unpleasant for us as hosts. Overall, in my opinion, this was very unprofessional behavior. If you don't feel like going to such an event, you can say so in advance. However, once you have made the commitment, negotiations with a few small adjustments to the offer (which is common and what I have already done with several providers) should not lead to you canceling the whole party. Therefore: Enjoy it in a small group, it's fine. But people at Frank's aren't interested in large gatherings.

I ordered takeout. The hamburger and pulled pork were delicious.

Service very friendly and patient. Was a young woman with glasses and red hair. Sweet potato fries were great, unfortunately the burgers weren't that good, so only 3 stars, because after all it's the core competency of a burger shop. Unfortunately one of the guests had a piece of plastic wrap in his burger. The meat was too hard. Unfortunately, the food wasn't served at the same time or in quick succession, which is why some people were finished eating and others didn't even start. Outside behind the old train station there is a chic outdoor area with play options such as table football and a sandpit - when the weather is nicer it is definitely cozy!

Very nice atmosphere. We sat outside. The waitress was very friendly and patient with us. The burgers were good. Would love to come back.

Super nice service and super delicious food that was prepared with love! Greetings from Cologne

Very nice service. Cool atmosphere. Food very good.

Best Burger 🍔 in Gera, friendly nice staff mostly young students who definitely do a great job

I can only recommend the shop. Always delicious.

Very friendly service with good advice. Delicious burgers and very good sweet potato fries. We recommend the restaurant.

Frank's Burger has the best burgers in the city of Gera. Everything from small burgers to giant burgers can be ordered. There is a huge selection of sauces to choose from. The drinks are served in very steep dishes. The boss himself is always approachable and present. At large tables, he serves together with the wait staff and ensures that the order is processed quickly. The portions are plentiful and the food is tasty. The restaurant was well attended at peak dinner time. All in all worth recommending.

Extremely delicious burgers with fresh ingredients and a lot of love. One of the best burger shops I've ever been to (I often come from Stuttgart just to eat burgers). The staff and service are very friendly and respond to all requests. You can always have a little chat with Frank. A very familiar atmosphere, it is also very nice outside on the terrace in summer. Great recommendation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tried it out spontaneously and was very impressed. Your service staff is extremely friendly.

Best burgers in town, quick and very friendly service, cool atmosphere

The food was good. The portions are completely okay for the price. The atmosphere was good too. The Dip Religion does what it promises. We had various waitresses that evening, most of whom were very nice, but there was also one who "didn't speak up" and made one or two statements that seemed a bit rude. The toilets are OK but it is very cold there.

Been here twice now. The first time there was the Monster Burger as a highlight. The second time I didn't know what to take because the selection was very limited. I then tried a few cocktails that were okay. Unfortunately the service was very inconsistent. Some are very nice and accommodating. Others are very bold or sometimes seem unfriendly. There were situations in which you felt uncomfortable and as if you were taking up space or standing in the way of other guests. Some explanations were thrown out carelessly. The food has always been okay, but nothing special for me.

A must for fans of American food. Great atmosphere in the old train station building. Delicious food and very friendly staff. We'd love to come back.

Came across it by chance as it is a little out of the way. The food is great in a rustic atmosphere (old train station building). The owners are very nice and sometimes take the time to talk to you about the development of this location. So we will definitely come back there.

It was very tasty and great. The service was very attentive. We'd love to come back.

Was always very satisfied and wanted to spontaneously come over for dinner today - when we asked, the visibly overwhelmed service person first told her colleague that she "don't feel like it anymore" and then approached us in a completely rude manner. Even in stressful situations, you don't treat potential customers like that.

Larissa der Kampfhubschrauber war sehr stabil.brudi Super Essen, tolle Getränke und hammer Deko! Wer Lust auf ein freundschaftliches Team hat, kommt hier vorbei!

Mega great service, very attentive & every wish can be fulfilled. The meal was excellent. We'd love to come back.

Unfortunately a bit cold, otherwise great former train station! Would go next time in summer. 😄 Food and service top! We will be back!

My friend and I sat at the table for 10 minutes without anyone being interested in us. The (probable) operator preferred to chat at the next table; he probably knew the family. Then they left unnoticed. Sales of two individuals are probably not needed.

Diesen Restaurant haben wir zufällig gefunden und ich glaube ich habe den besten Veggie-Burger, je ich gegessen habe, hier gehabt und die Pommes war auch richtig lecker 🍔🍟 Ja, hier ist zwar ein Burgerladen aber der Kaffee sogar hat sehr gut geschmeckt! Und der Inhaber Frank ist ein ziemlich netter Mensch, mit dem man über sehe viele Themen richtig gut quatschen kann. 😊 Jederzeit gerne wieder!

War schon in einigen Burgerrestaurants und habe auch schon häufig besser gegessen.

Guten Abend Wir waren heute mit 9 Leuten hier. Die Burger waren gut,hätten nur etwas heißer sein können. Was uns sehr gestört hat, war die Kälte im Raum. Die Bedienung sagte uns noch,das es da wo der Kamin steht,warm ist. Hinter uns war der größere Raum mit einer dünnen Gardine abgetrennt, so daß es uns sehr in den Rücken zog. Tut mir leid, aber das ist bei den Temperaturen echt eine Zumutung.

Burgerladen Nr. 1 in Gera! Mit Qualität, permanenter Beständigkeit und Preis Leistung, längst das Louis Diner überholt. Wir kommen immer wieder sehr gerne hierher

Ein mega Burger mit leckeren Beilagen. Es ist definitiv einen Besuch wert.

Sehr freundliche und zuvorkommende Bedienung, das Essen ein Genuss und auch das Ambiente interessant und etwas urig. Es handelt sich um einen ehemaligen Bahnhof. Es ist wirklich lange her, dass ich mich so wohl gefühlt habe. Hier ist der Gast noch König. Was auch sehr positiv zu erwähnen ist, dass es die Burger in 4 Größen gibt. So muss man nichts weg wegen oder einpacken lassen. Denn frisch schmeckt ja doch am besten.

Essen war mega gut und der Service schnell, nett und freundlich ! Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen

Sehr leckeres Essen alles frisch und super lecker die Bedienung sehr freundlich und aufmerksam.Top 🔥

Essen mega lecker, Bedienung super nett!

Wir immer Preis Leistung Top..Essen mega u super freundlich alle..Es ist alles frisch zubereitet u die Portion ist kaum zu schaffen..Sehr lecker u gerne wieder...

Super! Also wirklich. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist überragend! Haben den Laden durch Zufall entdeckt, da wir in Gera unterwegs waren. 20 Euro für einen Triple-Burger sind echt Klasse. Pommes kosten extra, Getränke sind vom Preis her in Ordnung. Kommen gerne wieder. Waren leider etwas spät dran, mit Baby. Aber man hat uns dennoch freundlich bedient und mit Essen und Getränken versorgt :) Danke !!

Sehr leckere Burger,nur leider waren diesmal unsere Burger halb kalt..

Franks Burger...oh ja gerne immer wieder und immer mehr. Einfach Saulecker zum Todfressen gut und man hat Spaß dabei. Da ist die Figur ganz schnell hinüber.

Das Essen ist sehr lecker, egal ob Burger oder Beilagen alles schmeckt super. Doch aufgepasst, ich weiß nicht, was sie an Ihre Chips machen, aber es macht süchtig. Die Burger sind genau was man sich erhofft, allerdings fast unmöglich zu essen, ohne sich komplett einzusauen. Aber das ist es wert. Des Weiteren ist nicht nur das Essen gut, sondern auch das Getränkeangebot kann sich sehen lassen. Preislich ist man noch recht moderat unterwegs, Corona hat alles ein wenig teurer gemacht, aber man kann trotzdem noch mit gutem Gewissen essen gehen. Parken kann man auch gut, es gibt ein paar Plätze direkt vor der Tür und nur 10 Meter weiter ist ein Parkplatz der DB, wo man für ca. 2 EUR pro Tag stehen kann. Die Location lässt sich auch super für Events buchen, da es einen großen Innen und Außenbereich gibt. Außerdem kann man bei Frank's auch einen Foodtruck buchen, z.B. für Feste oder Unternehmensevents.

Super leckeres Essen, coole Location, Preis - Leistung ist gut. Bedienung ist mega. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Wir kamen erst recht spät, wurden aber dennoch bedient und das wirklich sehr freundlich. Der Preis ist sehr fair für das was einem geboten wird. Immer wieder gerne!

Prima Burger, denen man anmerkt, dass sie handwerklich gefertigt werden . Trotzdem kommt das Essen schnell , und der Service ist persönlich und freundlich. Die Location im alten Bahnhofsgebäude allein ist einen Besuch wert.

The meat quality was exceptional, and the fries were absolutely delicious. The Mexican burger had a unique twist, resembling the flavors of a burrito which was a delightful surprise. The blue cheese burger was incredibly juicy and flavorful. The staff was not only friendly but also efficient, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. Moreover, there's ample parking available which is a big plus. Bonus points for the cool engine-shaped fireplace, adding a touch of charm to the ambiance. 🍔🔥👌

Preislich intensive aber wirklich sehr gute Burger. Individuell bestellbar in verschiedenen Größen. Für den ganz kleinen bis zu ausgewachsenen riesenhunger ist für jeden etwas dabei. Nette und lockere Bedienungen. Bei gutem Wetter gibt es draußen wirklich viele Sitzplätze und auch für die kleinen eine spielecke mit Sandkasten.

Super Laden, sehr urig eingerichtet und Frank macht außerordentlich leckere Burger. Hatte den Mexican zusätzlich mit Käse und bin begeistert. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Es gibt hier leckere Burger zu einem fairen Preis. Der Service ist super. Kann ich nur empfehlen!

Exzellente Burger in sehr charakterstarkem Ambiente mit sehr nettem Service 💪🍔👍

Wir waren am Mittwoch dort essen und es war alles top. Eine super liebe Servicekraft, das Essen kam sehr schnell und hat prima geschmeckt. Wir werden definitiv wiederkommen.

Ein absoluter muss wenn man hier Urlaub macht bzw. wohnt. Wir waren ganz spontan da, obwohl wir nicht reserviert haben, haben wir noch einen Platz bekommen. Die Bedienung ist sehr lieb und nett. Extrawünsche sind ohne Probleme möglich. Essen und Preisleistung perfekt. Selten so einen guten Burger gegessen. Parken direkt vorm Gebäude(Alter Bahnhof).

Wir waren immer im Sommer hier und der Außenbereich ist sehr schön und großzügig. Die Karte ist umfangreich und für die Burger lohnt sich eine weite Anreise. Zum Independence Day und Thanksgiving gibt es extra Veranstaltungen. Ein Besuch bei Franks lohnt sich immer und irgendwann muss ich den Monsterburger mal probieren.

Richtig geil war zu meinem Geburtstag alleine da es hat aufjedenfall gemundet

Sehr nette Bedienung ,auch wenn ich nicht den Bürger bekommen habe den ich bestellt habe hat der Bürger geschmeckt.

Mega leckere Bürger, super Service.

Schöne Gastronomie mit tollem ausenberelch ! Sehr nettes Personal und tolles Essen 👍

Der Pastrami Burger ist ein Traum 🤤🤤🤤🤤 Hier kann man wirklich richtig lecker Essen.

Spontanes Mittagessen mit leckeren Pulled Pork Burgern und Pommes. Wir konnten draußen sitzen und die Sonne genießen mit dem Duft vom Smoker im Hintergrund. Es gibt einen Sandkasten für die Kleinen. Sehr nettes Personal

Perfekte Burger im coolen Ambiente! Jederzeit wieder... Original American Burger absolutely delicious

Waren mit der Familie zum Essen zum Essen vor Ort. Die Location ist echt schick, die Gastronomie- Idee super und das Personal freundlich und nett. Leider mangelt es wieder einmal an der Umsetzung und der Küche. Wenn ein Burger noch immer aus dem Froster kommt, fehlt einem jegliches Verständnis. Sorry, aber als USA Reisender und jemand mit Fachverstand habt Ihr echt Luft nach oben. Macht was drauß, die Möglichkeit ist da...
