I've been here multiple times and the burgers are always on point - super tasty and cooked just right every time. The customer service is awesome too. My kid loves their kid meals, especially the dino nuggets. Definitely one of my go-to spots. Highly recommend!

Definitely worth the trip up to Frederick to try these amazing burgers, though I hope they open up a location further down 270 South to grow their business in MoCo. Staff was super friendly in helping us refine our choices and plenty of space in the back to grab a drink from the bar first and then sit and enjoy your meal. The must try is their flagship Fifty Fifty Burger (Half beef and half bacon smash patties seasoned with house rub and topped with White American cheese) - absolutely tremendous flavor, just indulgent. I had to go back and try another burger and they recommended the Oklahoma Animal (The Fifty Fifty Burger, Oklahoma style and Animal Style. Fried onions and mustard smashed into the patties, pickles, Fifty Fifty sauce and cheese.) - equally impressive, robust flavor. Can't wait to enjoy these burgers again. And please open up a spot close to Rockville! There's nothing like it here and you'll have lines out the door :)

Really enjoyed our first visit here. Really good bacon/beef burgers. Had the make-your-own, Waffle burger, and chicken sandwich. Everyone was happy with their meal. Canned drinks? But fine, lots of take out orders. Onion rings were just standard, but the burgers were excellent. Really liked the atmosphere. Very old school American bar/pub/grill. Worth the money for sure.

I live about 40 mins from Frederick but was in the area and looking for lunch to take home. The reviews/pictures looked good so I decided to try it. I ordered a burger with a regular bun and a chicken sandwich with the waffle bun. The pickles on the burger were amazing and sweet potato and regular fries that I got for us were delicious as well. My boyfriend is very picky and I heated everything in the oven to rejuvenate it a little after the 40 min drive but everything was still so delish! Burger was moist/flavorful and chicken breading was crispy/full of flavor as well and the waffle bun was SO amazing. Will be back when I’m in the area again!

Located in the back of Old Mother breeding, Fifty fifty offers easily the best smash burger I’ve had. Full of flavor, juicy and perfectly cooked. I went with a side of sweet potato fries that were exceptionally crispy and seasoned (with cinnamon sugar) served with a side of in-house blueberry ketchup that was so fire!

I can’t believe we’ve never been here before. Suppose is such Hidden gem. We came hungry and left full and satisfied. Start our order off crispy onion rings, and the best seasoned Old Bay that I’ve ever had. I got the old-fashioned burger and added candied jalapenos, which were surprisingly very tasty and not too spicy. I think the key to the burgers are there half bacon and half ground beef, which takes the taste of the next level. We arrive right at lunchtime and we were the only people in here for a while before the lunch rush came in, but don’t worry there is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

Rather oddly arranged designed bar. Bar/dining side is for their microbrews only. Only one TV available and oddly located at the very end of the bar on a far wall. Otherwise you just look at their beer billboards. So bring your own entertainment . If you are going there for burgers, they do not serve you. There's a food kiosk located in the very rear above steps that you go to as a separate business to order, but you can bring your Burgers back to the bar.

Talk about a hidden gem. Had a superb burger, fries and onion rings at Fifty-Fifty recently. These are smash burgers done right! I know some reviews have suggested that these burgers are similar style to five guys, which is true, but personally I found it to be better. Juicier, tastier patties and the sauce was outstanding. Not only are the burgers great but the atmosphere was buzzing. Really reasonable prices also. Great place to watch some college basketball while enjoying outstanding burgers and brews. Definitely coming back.
