Cherry Cricket

As a Denver native I have eaten at Cherry Cricket for many years-it is practically a Denver landmark. However the quality of food has diminished through the years. I was just there recently and ordered fries which were cold and the hamburger I had was totally bland. If you want drinks this is a great gathering place but if you're hungry then eat somewhere else.

I made my first trip the Cherry Cricket on 03/16/2010. Upon entering I was given a pager and told the wait was only 10 minutes. My party and I waited just outside the entrance. After 20 minutes I went in to ask the hostess if there was a problem. It seems she had paged me 3 times and put a question mark next to my name. She tested the pager and it was not working. One of the doormen said they were having problems with the paging system. I asked if it had occurred to them to look out the door and call my name. At that time the doorman began to berate me for being rude to the hostess. Then we were told that we would have to wait for a table to be free. I chose to not wait and we left. I wonder if they would have treated Adam, from man vs food, the same way if he was waiting outside. There customer service is not only lacking but they are very rude as well. Since this was my first visit, it will also be my last.

awesome food

The Cherry Cricket is a mainstay in the Denver market for great burgers. You can create your own unique burger from a variety of additional toppings. Located in Cherry Creek, the Cherry Cricket is a nice place to relax and grab a burger. Their expanded patio seating area helps relieve the old waiting times to get a table. Daily specials and other food offerings besides just traditional bar food make the Cherry Cricket a place for everybody. The Cherry Cricket has been consistently voted Best Burger and was featured in an episode of the Travel Channel’s Man vs. Food.

I have heard that this places was nominated as the third best burger place in the country, I am not sure who rated that, but I would agree that the burgers are that good. Some of the best burgers I have ever had. They can be a little too greasy for some people though. The fries aren't bad either.
