Ground Burger Bar in Newmarket

We were here for a staff party and it was excellent. The service was great and the food was amazing. I was surprised at how nice they made the house salad, it had chick peas and radishes, not your traditional boring house salad. I had the black and blue burger and it was great. All the staff really enjoyed their meals. I will definitely be back!

Love, love this place))) Beautiful patio at Newmarket downtown, delicious food, friendly service! Kids menu is really tasty as well. Food : 5/5

Amazing food, great vibe. It was busy, but comfortable and well worth it for the food

If you love everything about burgers, well this place is for you. Excellent service and variety of foods. There are so many options of burgers and more to choose from.

Food and drinks are always solid, but the service we had the other night was so incredible! Kenneth was an absolute delight and a highlight of our dinner for sure! Will definitely be coming back just for him, best service we ve had in a restaurant in a long time!!

Absolutely amazing burger place. They have a variety of fresh never frozen burgers that you can customize to your likings or order it right off the menu. I have been here with a large group and with small friend groups and this place continues to amaze me. The service is outstanding, each server is so knowledgeable and friendly. The food is cooked to perfection. A good time at this place is guaranteed.

Excellent burger experience.

The waiter kenneth was awesome, super hot too

My waiter Kennith was the goat he was so cool and fun and made my dinner experience 10 times better.

Amazing burger bar. Kenneth is a great server, very likeable & kind.

Love this place! Great food, and great service. The last couple times I ve gone I had Kenneth as my server and he added to the experience. Super professional and funny person! Would recommend the place and the server to others!

Amazing Service, everything came fast and was so delicious! Maddie really made everything come together so well! She makes an outstanding Lavender Haze, make sure to give it a try when you stop by! Thank you Maddie for making my experience one to remember! I ll be back!

Gabby is single-handedly the greatest worker of all time. Ground burger is fantastic and I will be back!

Fantastic food! The El Fuego burger was delicious. Our server Gabby was super awesome and made the experience that much better. Top tier service and food. Best in town!

Overall good spot to hit up if you are craving a burger. The fries were crisp, hot Mozzarella sticks werent too spicy, but good for an app. Good menu selection with really friendly and attentive staff. Overall good experience.

Worst hamburger ever. Super dry and when I turned it over the bottom was hard and burnt. Hard to believe they specialize in burgers. Too noisy for conversation if that is what you are planning on. As far as service goes it is below average. Basically this place would be suited to a guys night of drinking with buddies Kid-friendliness: Not a place suited to kids

Ground Burger Bar has really good service and fresh ingredients. The fried Pickles are great. I like the salads, theyre a good portion and very fresh. Vegetarian options: Beyond meat burger available.

Maddie was very kind to me at the bar. Brightened up what started off as a gloomy day. Braeden in the kitchen makes the best salads and burgers i ve ever had. The whole team is 10/10

I brought a friend to Ground Burger Bar specifically for their mac n cheese, which I ve had in the past and thought was excellent. The menu promises a rich dish made with multiple cheeses, heavy cream, and baked, Unfortunately, what we were served was nothing like that. What arrived at the table was plain pasta with a sparse sprinkling of cheese on top completely dry, tasteless, and lacking any sauce whatsoever. The creamy, cheesy decadence we expected was nowhere to be found. It was clear this dish hadn t been baked, nor made with the attention to detail described on the menu. To make matters worse, we were short on time due to an appointment and couldn t wait for it to be remade, so we had to eat it as it was. It felt like a rushed, careless attempt at what should be a standout menu item. I brought the issue up with our server, who was kind and understanding. She offered to credit the dish, but when she returned, she apologized, explaining that she was only allowed to apply a small credit. It was disappointing to see that the manager didn t seem to care about the poor quality of the food or our experience. For a restaurant with such a strong reputation and premium pricing, this was a massive letdown. The dish missed the mark entirely.

Every burger and its beer pairing is perfect. Go for dinner early on Friday, you can get a limited wagyu burger, its epic!

Pretty Good burger a little pricey but worth going to once in a while

So good and the service was excellent!!! They took really good care of our whole football team!

Phenomenal burgers, THICC Onion rings and a great spot by the train tracks makes this place one of my fav burger places. It was unfortunate that our order took nearly 30 minutes to arrive. We were quite hungry and the wait felt longer. Also do not order the Mac and cheese side. It was surprisingly bland and a waste of food. Did not eat it.

Excellent food and great location

**edit** Tried takeout again hoping it would be better than 4 years ago, but somehow its gotten worse. 1 hour and 20 minutes for 4 burgers and fries. No apologies, nothing Fool me once.... ************** Waiting for more than 45 minutes for a burger is a bit much. Food is tremendous tasting, but service tonight is definitely not up to par

Mac and cheese was not very flavorful and dry. My draft bud light beer tasted watered down.

My wife and I have been here a few times for a casual date night and we absolutely love the food, sometimes it is a little slow coming out but they are usually quite busy. The menu isn t super overwhelming just straight to the point and easy to choose from. We always get the smash Mac & an app. The servers we ve had have always been great, super fun & lovely to talk to. It is a little on the pricey side but good for a treat every so often

Food was good, but not good enough to justify the high price ($20+ for a burger and small fries). And on top of the high prices they decide to add an automatic tip of 18%, then ask you to tip a second time at checkout.

We like the food..we were just a bit in a hurry so we had to eat quickly. But, 3 think it would have been nice if we had time.

This was my second time at Ground Burger Bar! Once again, did not disappoint! The food is fresh, tasty and hot! I ve had the Smash Burger and the Blue Burger and both are spectacular! Fries are crispy and fresh. Today I had the side garden salad and I loved the added chickpeas and crunchy topping. Sorry, no pics! I was so hungry I scarfed it all down! But I d really like to applaud Kenny, our server today. I love how Kenny introduced himself, was easy-going, personable and checked in on us throughout the afternoon. Oh, and a great patio! So many burgers to try so I ll be back! And I ll try to take some pics next time!

It could have been the company, it could have been the beer, it could have been the location . But the burger that I had was the best thing I ve eaten in recent memory. El Fuego burger - medium rare, brioche bun, scotch bonnet sauce on the side Curly fries with malt aioli Stella, lug tread Half and half funnel cake Would go back and sit in the corner over the water for maximum enjoyment next time. Sitting on a picnic table is not my fav but would be a good space for games. Inside looked like a good spot too but didn t stay in there long. See you soon! Parking: There is parking available all along Main Street in the back areas. It s all free. I m sure it s packed during select times and events though.

Great choice of place if you want to wait 45 min for food and get it cold. Chicken tastes like leather - my kids had it. I had veggie burger and it was ok but cold. It was already late so we just ate what we could and left.

2 of 3 visits have been a much longer wait time than we were given, and we could see multiple empty tables. Although the food was good, the wait time for the food was longer than expected on visit 1 and 2, considering the amount of people in/out of the restaurant. Visit 3 I just left after being told 15-20 minute wait, and waiting over an hour.

Although I give this place 4/5 for all categories and a 3/5 overall saw the meal prep guy behind the counter eating while preparing for for customers. Kind of disgusting watching your food being prepped by a guy stuffing his face. It s like are you eating my sweet potato fries ??? Too bad really service is good and I like the food.

Pretty decent spot, nothing special about it. What I did enjoy was the astounding oreo dessert which was spectacular

Well, definitely a must try when in Newmarket! Freshly made buns. Sweet potato fries were yum. Must visit folks!

Service was quite poor took for ever to get menus and drinks ! The cooks don t wear gloves when they cook handling all food with bare hands making a salad no tongs nothing food took forever to come out and it s super pricy for mediocre burgers won t go back

Great space, great service, delicious burger!

Delicious burgers. Juicy, full of flavour. Great vibes and patio.

Grass fed delicious patties!

Staff kind, burger very tasty!! Lots of options too. Best part is I got the gift card at a charity event they supported - so woohoo for businesses supporting charity - Abuse Hurts Fashion show 2024

Title: Disappointing Experience at Ground Burger Bar I recently visited Ground Burger Bar in Newmarket, and unfortunately, I left feeling underwhelmed. The atmosphere was decent, but the overall experience fell short of my expectations. The food itself was mediocre at best. While the burger patty was cooked adequately, the overall flavor was lacking. The burger was served on a paper-lined tray. Because I had a lettuce bun and used a fork and knife, the paper below became soggy and bits were stuck to the lettuce bun. Was a complete turn-off. My side of fries was overcooked. Furthermore, the pricing seemed unjustifiably high considering the underwhelming quality of the food. Left feeling as though I had overpaid for a subpar dining experience. In conclusion, I regret to say that my visit to Ground Burger Bar was not as enjoyable as I had hoped. I believe there is ample room for improvement in terms of both food quality and service. As a result, I am unable to recommend this establishment to others based on my unsatisfactory experience.

Great selection of burgers and beers! Service was relatively good, but could have been more attentive.

Amazing spot! Loved the burgers (especially the one that s a dupe of the Big Mac). Family friendly, cozy atmosphere and live music.

Ohh the vegetarian burger is so good! The patty was unlike anything Ive had before, it was so nice to try something different! And the waitress was very friendly and professional :)

Great burgers, fries and onion rings (seasoned well and crispy). I liked the variety of burger buns and toppings!

The burgers were awesome, Kenny his service was very good nice guy. Highly recommended

Save yourself a trip to Toronto and come here for some gourmet burgers. Got the GBB smash burger and was incredibly impressed. Juicy, cheesy, and perfect amount of toppings. Not to mention the fact that these burgers can totally be shared between 2 people. Fries were crispy and onion rings were delicious. Family friendly and will definitely be coming back. Service was a little slow but food made up for it.

Nice burgers and salads.

The Burger is fresh made and very delicious , beef burger is tender and juicy !

Best burgers in town! Great service too!

We are here usually around twice a month and have tried everything on the menu. EVERYthing is delicious, consistently! The staff are great, the atmosphere is exactly what you sign up for as far as a more upscale burger joint, and the area is immaculate. Its genuinely my favourite burger Ive ever had too. I usually alternate between the Smash Mac, GBB Smash, and Cali Love, but now theyve added the Medi Chicken and it might be my new fav. But prettyyyyy much anything is a safe bet :) Also one of my favourite caesar salads EVER (and I get exclusively caesar salad as a side dish at every restaurant I go to). Love Ground!

I had been meaning to check this place out for a while now, and boy was I pleasantly surprised. Although parking is very limited and usually and pain to get in and out, hunting a spot down is worth it for Ground Burger Bar. Popped in on a whim with a friend and got the bison burger, dill chips and fries. The food was phenominal. Absolutely delicious, massive portions and well worth the higher end price point. Service was a little slow, but our server was very friendly. We came in just before a huge rush of 6+ reserved parties entered and filled the place with noise and screaming children. Maybe well come in early next time to enjoy some of the ambience.

Just tried to grab lunch on the patio, as we love the food and atmosphere. We were sat promptly but unfortunately never greeted by staff. We were at the table for approx 15 minutes and had two servers walk past and also saw tables sat after us being greeted and drinks delivered. A disappointing experience for a place that we have always enjoyed.

Fantastic burger place. Best dine-in experience in a while. The fries were perfect, and the Black and Blue burger was so delicious. They also make vegan and vegetarian burgers that were honestly so tempting to order. We tried their Canadian brewed Beer and Seltzers They were also a highlight with the meal. Sophie was a great server! The servers were on the ball, and very charismatic. Will be returning in the future. Vegetarian options: Really great they have a legend of items that is Vegetarian, and Vegan friendly. Dietary restrictions: You can see through the menu that it highlights for many food options for allergies too! Parking: Its Fairy Lake parking, so it gives you range to go anywhere on Main Street. Its across from Ground Burger Bar.

Best burgers in Newmarket, maybe even the GTA! You can even bring your dog to the patio. The beer selection is good but they only do Pepsi products, if that matters to you. Kid-friendliness: They have a kid section on the menu and do soft serve ice cream which is a hit in summer

Had a great lunch with a group of friends.

Ground Burger Bar is a staple restaurant for my family. The sweet potato wedges are truly 10/10 and worth every penny! I change up my burger order every visit and I havent had a bad one yet - all are home runs. They have a cool interior and an awesome patio to the side of the building. Worth a visit for sure!

I ve been coming to Ground Burger Bar for awhile now, and the burgers are always so good and fresh ! On the other hand, I will say the customer service needs improvement.... I ve noticed recently, that the waitresses never ask how I m doing, how my burger is or never checks in on our food in general. One of the waitresses, never even brought us cutlery, and I ve been sitting around not being able to eat my salad. I finally got my cutlery. I understand it s a busy place, but customer service always comes first no matter how busy the restaurant is.

Nice people

Service is Zero.

Average food, good atmosphere, but horrible service. Went with family for drinks and dinner. Restaurant was only half full. Had to ask for everything twice - napkins, waters, take out container. Eventually gave up and got napkins from the bar ourselves. Asked waitress twice for a take out container to take home the left over but she was more interested in chatting up with other girls at the bar instead of bringing us a container. Had to walk to the kitchen / grill to get cutlery for our table. Very bad experience.

Fun atmosphere. Food was mediocre, my burger was over-spiced. Service was ok but we kept having to wave her over. I also got intestinal distress from something I ate there... Its overpriced as well. IMHO

Horrible service. Took forever and our server was acting like she resented us for being there. Food

Im always asked what a microaggression is, today was a good example. I walk in with my wife and two kids. I touch one of the kids on the back. My wife asks for a table, the hostess asks a table for 3? At the end of the meal the waitress asks Separate bills or one bill? Seriously?! There is a Black woman, a white man and two kids with a skin tone somewhere in between. You didnt ask either party on our sides whether they wanted separate bills. It rarely happened in Toronto, always happens in Newmarket. Burgers, salad and fries are really good. Kids loved it.

This restaurant had become my favorite for a Byson burguer with onion rings. Love it.

Service is a bit snooty but the food is great.

Very overpriced and salty burger. Got two regular burgers and two mill street organics, and the bill came to $80. Crazy. Food was good, but very salty. Atmosphere and decor was great though. I was also really confused if the meat was grass fed, hormone / antibiotic free. When I called they told me yes, but there was no mention of it on the menu.

Nice place to dine in with friends or family

Been here a few times and have never been disappointed! Went today for lunch with my brother and it was amazing. Kevin our server was friendly and suggested a refreshing non alcoholic drink for my brother. Loved it! Thanks Kevin!!

A vast selection of burgers so it is difficult to choose, which isn t a bad thing. The fries, curly fries, and onion rings are all great. I had The Dip burger which was really good, if I had to make a suggestion, it would be that next time they try to melt the cheese on the burger. They also have a lot of tasty dips as well. Loved the caper aioli and garlic aioli. Our server was really helpful and made great suggestions. Great place for a gourmet burger!

It was closed when we stopped but they let us watch 3rd period of game 7 of leafs bruin bur no drinks and no overtime

Great spot and great food

I can not believe of what just had happened , we are here in front of ground burger , waiting for 40 min , which was originally supposed to be 30 min , after 44 min we ask for an update , she said we can sit you now but your food order will take another 40 min , our kitchen is backed up . Why didnt they tell us this from the beginning ! ! It is 2.47 pm , if you dont want to hire enough people and no manager on site and not pay for extra cook , why do you even run a food business !!! This has ruined our long weekend plans and i have witnessed 2 parties sitting before us I am 100 % sure they came after us and they also were waiting for the text ! !!! I am beyond disappointed !!!

The burgers were so delicious. The service was great! Out food was delayed due to kitchen issue and we were offered drinks and deserts on the house! Highly recommend it!

Honestly probably one of the best burgers I have ever eaten. A little more than your typical burger joint but if burgers have a gourmet level, that s where I would put these ones. Friendly staff too!

The food here is amazing! My favourite burger is definitely the Field Of Dreams that has a garden patty made in-house. The decor is rustic and modern. There s many different seating options and the drinks are great!

Absolutely amazing. Best burger in Ontario

Wow, wow, wow!!! My son and I had the most unbelievable meal at Ground burger bar!! We were in the area and decided to pop in for dinner and my sons birthday. The food was tasty and hot and fresh and we absolutely loved it. The service is second to none-the waitress Lauren was very professional. friend and kind thank you Lauren

We really like this restaurant with various of yummy burgers, Lauren was really nice , welcoming and helpful.. thank you guys. we will back

I recently tried the KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) Burger at Ground Burger Bar, and I found it to be overly salty. However, their curly fries and house salad were delicious.

Arrived and got our drinks in about 15 minutes. We then waited an hour for our order to be taken and another round of drinks. I understand it was a very busy night, however 2 servers trying to run the whole place is not acceptable. The hostess stepped in, and I understand the industry is understaffed. But stop taking tables if you cannot accommodate. As well, chicken on burgers was burnt

Delicious! The sweet potato fries are a must!

Great place food was delicious. Being gluten intolerant was glad they had options. A bit pricey but was a great night out

Best burger Ive had in a long time along with my bottomless Pepsi

First time here, the food was decent but felt pricy for what we got. Onion rings were good. Felt like we kept having to ask for beverage refills. Food : 4/5

This place was absolutely bomb. The burger was made soo perfect also 100% real. The fries were seasoned nicely as well. Really enjoy my meal here. I can t eat grease often but this place really hit the spot. Service was a bit slow.. found the waitresses talked a lot between each other rather than circling around the tables. Overall awesome spot.

Ground Burger Bar in Newmarket is a must-visit for burger enthusiasts! Their smash burgers are incredibly tasty, cooked to perfection. Pair them with their crispy curly fries, which are delicious especially when dipped in their malt vinegar aioli. The onion rings and Flamin Hot mozzarella sticks make fantastic starters, but be warned these will fill you up, so its best to order them if you have a group of more than two. Trust me, youll be too full to finish your main meal otherwise! The service here is top-notch, friendly and attentive. And if you have a sweet tooth, dont leave without trying their deep-fried Oreos. Theyre so good that my wife insists we limit our visits just because of those irresistible treats. Ground Burger Bar is definitely a spot worth returning to!

Fantastic smash burgers! Well done.

Had to wait 30 minutes for a table, which was totally fine, more just setting the scene for it being a busy night. As far as I could tell, there was 1 server and a bartender for a full restaurant of drunk adults and hungry kids. After we got our food we were basically ignored the rest of the night. Ordered a side sauce that never came, no one came around at last call to see if we wanted a top up on drinks. We were half done our meals before anyone even brought a bottle of ketchup over. I don t think the server is 100% to blame, but it seemed understaffed on the service side. Food was quick and fantastic as always. Service was inattentive. Will likely save my next visit for a Monday afternoon or just go somewhere else if it s that busy again.

Great food, great service. Good vegan options. Nice vibe.

Ground Burger is always a great experience. The staff are welcoming and the burgers are truly the best! Maddie the General Manager and Mixologist (Best Old Fashioned on Main Street - see photo of Maddie) always ensure a great visit. It s like hanging with your good friends. I highly recommend you stop in for an excellent burger and fries along with one of the many aiolis. The garlic aioli is my favorite. Cheers.

I visited Ground Burger with some friends recently. The food was good. The service was even better. The server was engaging & did a superb job. The burgers were quite small, considering the price which we had to pay. The refills of the soda is what filled us up.

The food was great and the waitress was awesome. If you havent been, you need to and if you have tonight is a good time for another visit.

Good burger tho it s a bit overprice . Good service and athmosphere . Kids love burger and dino nuggets Food : 4/5

The burger was nice.. Ill give it an 8/10. Fries were great 9.5/10 . Cocktail was very mediocre. Had a prosecco lemonade and I didnt really like it. My major concern however is that I sat at the Chefs table and I didnt see the cooks wash their hands often enough for the amount of food they were touching with their bare hands. Gave me serious concerns about their food handling techniques. Also the Chefs had their hair flying about and not neatly packed. The ambience however is absolutely fantastic and theres an outdoor area with lit trees, loads of picture spaces. Theres also an ice rink right opposite it, so if you wanna have burgers and go ice skating, go for it!

Sweet potato fries with aoli all the way. Would come just for those. Wasnt actually a fan of the burger, tasted a bit too charred for me, but the chicken burger is great if you dont mind dark meat.

Great food every time

Amazing food, great service and great restaurant. Cannot wait to go again soon

Not worth revisiting or visit. Extremely overpriced. Staff need training in their menu options and alcoholic drinks. One persons bill was 51$ including tip.. we had 12 people in our party and none of us will go back again.. big no no Vegetarian options: Order Garden Veg Burger with Gluten-free bun. Bun was cold and crumbled at first bite.. when I asked the server, he mentioned it is like that.. I have been gluten free for many years and dined at many restaurants with gluten free bun but never had this type of crumbled bun. I complained about it and was told it comes like that. Burger was not at all value for money and substandard quality. Server didnt know the difference between dark or white rum and Scotch or Rum. I asked for Dark rum and was offered white Bacardi and Crown Royal rum I asked for gluten free beer and was it aware which beer is available. 2 people in our party also were over billed. Outside was slippery and not cleared or salted..

The burgers here are very good. The fries are quite good as well. Nice selection of burgers and beer. We have been here several times. Sometimes they put too much sauce on the burgers so we ask for light sauce.

Vegetarian options: Lot of options for vegetarian,vegan and gluten free. Food

food was really amazing. I got a gbb smash burger and it was delicious. Lowkey overpriced though.

Great tasting burgers, some of the best in the GTA, and an amazing variety of toppings (eggs, veggies, etc.). Service is average because it is often super busy.

A little noisy to have conversations and didnt love the bench seating. But loved the food, would definitely recommend it. Loved that it was licensed and could have a drink with my meal. A great place for families too!

Had their GBB SmashBurger. Excellently done, but very messy (part of the experience). I try to stop there every time Im in Newmarket! Bad point; had a Stella Artois. This cost about $9.50, but it wasnt the big 500ml it was a small 330ml beer. Not acceptable at that price!

My go-to burger spot!! They have the best local meat, great service, and always ice-cold beers. The patio in the summertime is second to none. Smash patty style burgers with awesome options of different creative burgs. My mouth is watering as I write this - I see a ground burger in my near future. Thanks for keeping it real! - Burger fanatic

Popular burger joint in downtown New Market just steps From the ice rink. Known for their burgers and beers, I opted to try their GBB smash which is among the popular. Excellent choice as it was juicy and tender. Even though it came with a slide of fries, I also stole some sweet potato fries off my wife. Overall, the place is fun and bustling during peak dinner and weekend.

Great place for a keto-styled burger. Pricey, but delicious nonetheless. Seated quickly, and served by hard workers.

Great burgers and service. Will definitely visit again. Parking: Limited parking spots. Very tight. Kid-friendliness: Waitress was terrific with my grandsons.

I was there for dinner. Pros: Burger taste Great atmosphere Cons: Hard to find your server The ingredient wasnt fresh (the radish in one of the pictures) Pricey

Delicious, great staff who will take the time to explain the menu and very flexible with substitutes

My favorite spot in Newmarket. Burgers are the best around and the deep fried Oreos are amazing!

worst service in whole Newmarket

Dinner was awesome but a little slow to get to the table and they weren t overly busy. I ve been here before and it was very good. Maybe a staff member didn t show up. It still wouldn t stop me from going back. The live music was a nice treat Food

The food tastes as good as it looks :)

This place is terrible service and food oh my gosh it s horrible all food was burned and we ask for fork and knife she dropped it on table

I was there with my guest on Sunday but I had the worst experience over there We ordered water but it took half an hour and the dishes took more than one hour to get ready and when they bought the dishes all of them were burned.And when we asked for cutlery, the waiter disrespectfully threw the cutlery on the table This was the worst experience I have ever had

If you are dining in inwould recommend this diner but I got take out fries but for 10 dollars I had a small portion.

Never disappointed with the quality of the food at Ground Burger Bar. The Nashville hot chicken sandwich was absolutely delicious. Much better food and atmosphere than getting a burger at a generic chain restaurant or pub! Truly a Newmarket gem.

Kina was awesome great service

Food was decent, however now a days I dont go just for the food I also go for the full experience. Food was good but not exceptional, we had 3 people in total serve us, the person that brought my food seemed like the only person that didnt hate their job. The person that bought the second drink, if they were to serve our first or be the actual server, would have resulted in me walking out. All in all for the experience and price I wouldnt be back mostly because the servers didnt seem welcoming.

Great pub for lunch with good live tunes playing and wonderful service by Lauren. We had the Smash Mac and build your own burger with fries, everything was yummm! Refreshing Aperol Spritz and non alcoholic beer too. A must try.

Friendly and and they take care of you. Always asking if all is OK.. I want to try everything on the menu now lol

Best burger place in Newmarket I ever been to I went with my friends and I got the smash Mac and a salad and a side of sweet potato fries and they were all so good. I highly recommend the sweet potato fries so go I highly recommend this place Just a heads up parking can be very difficult especially on weekends if you can take public transit

Absolutely fantastic food - the burger and topping options will leave you wanting for nothing. Our app - fried pickle chips - DELICIOUS! I had the tropic chicken burger and it was juicy and crispy all at once, excellent flavours. My partner enjoyed his beef burger very much as well. Definitely worth a stop in, though it was clearly a very busy afternoon so some of the staff was a little grouchy. Otherwise terrific service by the whole team, especially the dark haired woman (a manager?) who ended up serving us while taking care of the bar as well.

Always outstanding burgers and great vibe in the bar and on the patio!

Have been here quite a few times and the experience was great, but this time..the glasses werent clean at all, were replaced with some eye rolling, the chicken burger was dry, lettuce instead of the bun wasnt good either (usually its the crispy lettuce and its good) really questioned how did they get the best burger award (displayed at the front desk) wasnt Worth $53 (tax + tip included) for just two burgers no drinks Would still give another shot to restore one of my fav go to places in NM

Came here on a busy Friday night and was met by some welcoming young ladies at the front. We were seated quickly as we were okay with being inside - the patio was very full and live music sounded great. Our server Abby was delightful and very attentive. We chatted with her for awhile - she always made sure we had enough to drink and helped us navigate a very detailed long menu. A very bright young lady. Food was great and loved the cocktail menu. Would recommend! Updated review September 2023** Came here this time on a Friday morning and was served by the lovely Abby again. Was clearly a very busy morning and they were understaffed. But Abby still made sure we had everything we need and we still got to chat with her for a second. The bartender was also very nice as well! Food just as good as before and came out quick - just check it out!

Bision burger was great.

Favourite spot!!! Food is amazing and patio in the summer always has live music best atmosphere in Newmarket Vegetarian options: Pretty sure they have to types of veggie burgers made in house

Awesome vibe, great live music. Patio is amazing. Service was a bit slow but it was very busy. Servers were friendly and pleasant. Would definitely go again.

Tasty and nice atmosphere when we last went to visit. Great menu that denotes food allergies and they even have a gluten free dedicated fryer. Best part is that the waitress was very familiar with food allergies and made some great recommendations after letting her know. Definitely made us comfortable. Would definitely go back. Thanks!

October 2023- 2nd visit was as good as our first. List goes on forever, lots of different meats to choose from. Can customize your own burger as well. Both visits, all were very pleased with the burger and if definitely a place we will return. Great service. Have an outdoor patio, lots of beer suggestions to pair with your burg. Free parking available close by. Vegetarian options: They have an impossible patty available here! Kid-friendliness: Kid menu and amazing Mac and cheese!

Absolutely love this place, I think it s my favourite burger joint! I ordered the Flamin hot Mozz sticks, the el Fuego burger with side fries and a Mac and cheese and enjoyed every bit of this meal. Service was also very good. Server was able to answer all my questions about food and beer recommendations. Food came out in a timely manner and so delicious! I highly recommend GBB, they ve got the best burgs you ll ever have

We ve been multiple times and no matter what burger we choose we re blown away by how elevated each dish is! The portions are great, the cost is reasonable and the drink selection curated to each burger is an excellence way to easily heighten the experience! Highly recommended spot to check out, my personal favourite is the Mary Had A Little Lamb or the Smoke Em If You Got Em

This was honestly some of the best food Ive had in a while. I commented how amazing it is that we can be at a random burger bar in Newmarket and have a better burger than the average American will have in their entire lifetime. 5 stars across the board.

This place has some excellent burgers/fries/pub grub and an excellent selection of beers and beverages. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Great atmosphere and reasonably priced for the quality of foods. I had the bison burger and it was one of the best burgers Ive ever had. The Mac and cheese is excellent too. Highly recommend place to stop in for a beer and a burger and a really nice spot to bring the family in to.

Parking: Still the best burger in Newmarket. Food

Man, I can t believe how good this place is.

Head out to Ground Burger Bar if youre looking for a solid burger! No matter your preference, they will have a burger for you - believe me!!

Best burger place in Town, hands down! Friendly staff, cool venue, will be back

My son got hit in the head with a tray and was vomiting all night do not recommend I got food poisoning

all wonderful except salt overload

Great burgers if not a bit overpriced. Always leave satisfied.

The WORST Korean Fried Chicken (KFC) sandwich I have ever tasted. I ordered from this place since I had heard so many good things about it at my local hair salon. I regret it. I requested that the pickles be omitted from the order - not only did they NOT omit the pickles, they also did not include the egg I paid for as an extra on the sandwich AND - the sandwich itself came looking like a hot mess. I could not even tell what was in the burger at this point and it smelled like dirty feet. I tried to give it a chance and to eat what I could - but alas, I had to throw my meal in the garbage. The only thing enjoyable were the curly fries. Even the mozzarella sticks that were dipped in flaming hot cheetos - they had no taste at all. I genuinely wish I liked this place. Maybe it was a one-time bad experience? I do not know. All I know is that this has completely deterred me from ordering here again. Dietary restrictions: They ignored my request to omit pickles.

Ground does burgers extremely well. Ingredients are high quality and the named burger combinations are well thought out. Service is always good. One suggestion - they need another bun selection like a soft Kaiser. Had a rare lamb burger on the brioche and it just disintegrated. The pretzel bun is a bit too heavy for a good burger.

Very dirty.

Amazing burgers!! Great selection! Staff were so nice Food

Fantastic place with a wonderful staff. Love it.

Best onion rings I have ever had!!!
