Will definitely Return.

Had to come to Fairhaven for an appointment & needed a spot to eat lunch. Happy to have picked this place. I rarely eat burgers because I can't ask for the meat to be medium-rare. Nice venue with tables overlooking the water. And lots to see on every wall. Had the Mustang Burger...messy but yummy. Suggest you get a towel from the loo & wet it to wipe your hands.They do supply a fairly hearty napkin. Had the Tequila Cocktail...good but rather small for $10. Would love to come back & have one of the Boozy Shakes.

Great burgers and great prices

Sep 2021 • couples

My husband and I randomly stopped here on our drive from Seattle to Canada and it was a great lunch. I love a thinner burger and these were just what I love. I ordered the classic with fried for $7 and paid $2 to add bacon. I was not able to finish my food as it was more than enough. My husband ordered the classic with fries with an oreo shake for $11 and added an extra patty for $2 as he likes a little more meat on his burgers and he ate the entire burger plus the rest of mine. Service was great as well. Would stop here again.

From West Seattle to The Filling Station

Jul 2020 • none

My niece and her friend drove all the way from West Seattle last night to meet me at The Filling Station because we love this place! I very rarely eat meat, and this is the ONLY place that can tempt me to eat a burger. (I get the El Camino). And the "tire treads" are the best fries I have ever had - PERFECTLY crunchy on the outside, PERFECTLY soft on the inside, and perfectly salted. Then there are the fried pickles - we made a convert to those last night. Meagan was our waitress, and made the evening even more special. Thanks Meagan!!

2nd time here, and already thinking of my 3rd trip.

Jul 2019 • none

We started with the Piston Poppers....cheesy spicy goodness. These put the Buffalo Blasters at the cheesecake factory to shame and I love me some Buffalo Blasters. These now my go too starter and I will have to be convinced to share. I had The Lariat burger ...I cannot describe this burger and do it any justice. I am at a lost for words for the sheer amazing burger experience that I had. This is MUST try burger place. Have had a few friends now try and all love as well. I am looking forward to my next trip and having another amazing burger,

Messed up order

Nov 2023 • solo

Ordered online through the website for pick up from the Sunnyland location. Specifically requested no onions and add avocado, and potato wedges. Burger came with onions and no avocado, and regular fries. Very disappointed as I had tipped 20% prior to pick up - much more than food was worth, and it was expensive! What’s the point of requesting modifications if they’re not listened to? On other hand, pumpkin milkshake was delicious.

Too loud. Messed up order.

May 2024 • family

Don't call in an order. The restaurant is so darn loud that the employee can't hear you no matter how loud you shout into the phone. When we got our order home we realized that it was totally wrong. Also the ambiance inside is EXTREMELY loud. We never sit in for that reason. Overall this is a very frustrating place!

Great Pub Lunch

Aug 2024 • couples

A friendly burger bar with a solid menu. The burger was excellent - served with unique, curled fries. The BLT was tasty, with a different sauce than regular mayo. The server was great - highly efficient and friendly. We enjoyed the on tap beer and the venue is decent.

Great burgers!

Sep 2021 • none

Highly recommended for a burger. We had both takeout and dine-in (because you’ll want it again!). Both experiences were fast and efficient. They have a new patio, which seemed popular. The Chuckwagon is THE BEST!. Fries are good as well. Also impressed with the side salad, it was better than most burger restaurants!

DON'T GET DELIVERY!

Apr 2023 • couples

Shelled out $50+ for a couple of burgers, fries and a salad. Delivered to our hotel. No napkins, no ketchup, no fork for the salad. (have you ever eaten a Ceasar salad with your fingers?). Assumed they would be included, because there is nowhere on their website to ask for those things. Called the manager. He just wanted to get off the phone ASAP. Food was good, but run by morons.

Great burger place in Fairhaven

Jan 2024 • family

Cute casual atmosphere, with very friendly staff. The food was way better than it needed to be. I think my chicken sandwich was amongst the best I had ever had. My son’s French dip type burger was amazing as well.

Mediocre Service and portions for a high price

Sep 2024 • family

The best part of the dinner was the milkshake. When we were greeted, the hostess told us that since there would be six of us, we would be charged an 18% gratuity. I agreed as I usually tip 20% and above for excellent service. The restaurant was not as crowded as a Tuesday night, and the service was slow and mediocre. They forgot some items, and the portions were pretty skimpy. When the bill came, they charged us for one forgotten item, and they charged us for a 22.5% gratuity. I will this restaurant in the future.

Lunchtime!

Aug 2023 • couples

Out for a day of shopping and geocaching. Lunchtime rolled up, and we realized we didn't have breakfast. Looked up places, and this one came up with good reviews, so we tried it. Had a very nice lunch out of the heat.

Satisfying lunch

Jun 2023 • couples

Our first visit to The Filling Station was wonderful. We were greeted cheerfully and seated in less than a minute. Our waitress was great and she juggled hostessing, bartending, waitressing, and bussing without missing a beat. We ordered cheeseburgers which were quite delicious and the curled fries, also delicious. Service was fast, but not rushed. We look forward to returning soon.
