Most Disliked
The drive-thru experience can sometimes mean long lines, particularly during peak hours like Sunday evenings. Some diners have pointed out that while the burgers are tasty, the patties may feel a tad thin compared to competitors. A few reviews mention that the onion rings hit or miss in terms of texture, lacking full cooking on occasion. Additionally, some might find the prices a bit higher than standard fast food, although many argue that the quality justifies the cost. Lastly, while the establishment maintains great ambiance, the lack of dine-in options may be a drawback for those wishing to linger over their meals.
Out & About Burgers has its quirks, and while the community loves it, these few criticisms give a balanced view of what to expect.

Great place for a burger and fries. I wouldn't say its worth going if there is a long line or if its out of the way. But it definitely hit the spot after a plane ride from San Diego. Way better than any of the fast food joints in the area. Next time I would get the triple burger as the patties are a little thin. It sounds like it would be too much, but I feel like it would make the ratio a little better ( and I enjoy smash burgers). Or maybe thinner lettuce and tomatoes would make it perfect. Either way, I'd eat there again and again.

Out & About Burgers never fails to satisfy my burger cravings! The patties are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection every time. Their menu offers a great variety of creative and classic burger options, all made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The staff is super friendly and efficient, making the whole dining experience smooth and enjoyable. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming—a perfect spot for a quick lunch or a relaxed dinner with friends. Plus, their sides and shakes are just as amazing as the burgers! Whether you’re a local or just passing through, Out & About Burgers is a must-visit for any burger lover. Five stars all the way—can’t wait to come back for another round!

Really impressed with the quality of the food they offer at such an affordable price. The burgers were juicy and fresh, even though the patties felt a bit thin and less seasoned than the direct competitors. I understand that it’s being compared to In-n-Out and this local chain is totally up there on the list of great burgers, and they even have better fries than In-n-Out which isn’t saying a lot. I did find that the onion rings batter didn’t cook through all the way which left me a bit disappointed, but all in all great spot to check out if you’re craving a delicious meal.

I’m a Cali transplant. This burger 🍔 joint is equivalent to In-N-Out burgers 🍔!! Since our relocation here in 2015, we’ve been missing In-N-Out burgers. At the recommendation of my sister-in-law, we tried it that year and we fell in love with the deliciousness. 😍 The burgers, sweet potato fries 🍟, Cagney’s way style fries, shakes etc were so yummy 😋. The ingredients are fresh and you can definitely taste 👅 the difference. We’ve been returning customers since our first try. This establishment is family owned and operated. We definitely like to support local businesses and make every effort to stop by and eat here monthly. I have a variety of old and current pix the hours of operation may not reflect the current hours. Lastly, always expect long lines but definitely worth the wait. Highly recommend!! 🤩🤙🏼🤙🏼

Is this the best burger on Meridian? I think so! There are a couple great spots, but there is just something about Out & About Burgers. This location has no seating and it's in a small trailer, but the food packs a punch. The burgers have so much flavor, and it's all cooked fresh. The ingredients taste high in quality. Luckily I live close so it's still hot by the time I get home. The fries are good and I get them smothered. The onion rings are so good as well! They also have fry sauce, like the close to Utah tasting fry sauce (IYKYK), so it's good! The service is great as well, sometimes there is a wait, and I have seen the line of cars get backed up, but definitely worth it. I take all my friends and family there and I have never heard a complaint! Now go get a burger!

Wait time can be long, but the food is good. It's one of my go to's when I don't feel like cooking. My pup loves getting a free pup cup! Friendly staff, and prices aren't horrible.
