The hamburger was okay, the fries were really good. As others have said, it’s expensive for what you get. Not sure what I’m tipping the employee behind the counter for either as they just take the order. With the high cost of everything on the menu it’s annoying having 20-30% suggested for the tip on top of that. I’m not eager to return here.

This place is so amazing. I am obsessed with the fries, but also tried a salad and a burger which were really good too. Will definitely be bringing the fam next time.

Food was disgusting… meat tasted like a dirty grill, missing side of champ sauce and cheese.. extremely overpriced for what the food quality is.

Opens at noon. We arrived a little after. Only a couple people in the bright open space. (Busier as the time progressed). Order t the counter with plenty of room if there is a line. Woman at the counter was upbeat and friendly, answered our questions as it was our first time in. She is great at her role, you really need someone like her as the first impression. Not every place gets that. Ordering was pretty easy and we got a QR code to place any additional orders without getting back in line. Soda and condiment station for drinks, mustard, ketchup, hot sauce, and utensils. Clean and well organized just like the overall space. Food came out pretty quick. It was also organized, a strange term to use but it fits, not sloppy. My burger was tasty, I will order the bun instead of the sourdough next time, very buttery and a little greasy for me my husband rolls his eyes at that. How could anything be too buttery? I'm strange! The fries were thin and crispy. Very good. I ordered ranch in the side. If you like ranch that is dill forward you will like this. I'm not a fan. My husband used the QR code to order cake for dessert. He found it a little hard to navigate but was able to complete the order with no issues. I enjoyed Burger Champ. Live the clean, breathe space and the food was good, too. Service was a notch above

2 DOLLARS FOR A SIDE OF RANCH???!!!(I’m not kidding folks, they really charge $2 for a small cup of ranch.)(That’s it, that’s the review.)

Extraordinarily subpar.Everything is soaked in aioli to hide how bland everything tastes. The prices are insane-- $2 for a side of ranch dressing (?!?!), $6 to add a small soda and soggy fries to your order, and $11 for a chicken sandwich that makes a McChicken look big. However, my friend's chicken sandwich was twice the size of mine so you might get lucky. The burger is edible, tasting similar to Steak N Shake's offerings (though in my opinion not as good). Even the soda tasted bad...The service was uncomfortable, nobody acted like they wanted to be there. When they messed up our order by omitting our ludicrously over priced add-ons, they were very rude when we brought it to their attention.The restaurant was almost empty, with music on full blast, paired with a dozen TVs flashing all around you. The decor can only be described as a sad, uninspired hamburger restaurant desperately trying to mask it's mediocrity with trendy interior design.Overall, it left my group disappointed, possibly outraged. The topic of how bad our experience was consumed the rest of our day, filling us with regret. What could have been a delightful evening amongst friends, with delicious food and reasonably priced ranch dressing, was instead a irredeemable bummer of an experience that was a waste of our money and our time.Thanks, Champ.
The second time I tired to go it actually worked. It is closed Sundays. St. Louis doesn't need more places with goofy hours. I got a shake, white cheddar jalapeno burger and onion rings. It was over priced. The flavors were fine. The smash burger thing is either done well or used an an excuse to used less beef. Burger Champ is the later. If you want two paper thin discs of burnt beef then this is your place. Another person said you get the good flavors without being stuffed - I'd agree. It would be a solid place for lunch if they were not charging as much as places using three times the ingredients. Service was pretty slow, but that is typical.

This place is just totally mediocre and HORRIBLY overpriced for amount of food you get. The burgers are quite small for $8-$12. 2-2 oz patties, that barely look that size, are in the style of Steak ‘n Shake or shake shack, but nearly double the price. At the price point, it’s just a terrible value. Of course cheese and anything other add ons are $1 or more. Then the sides.. they charge $6 for fries and a soda. The soda is about a 16 oz cup max that at least has free refills, and the serving of fries quite small and definitely not worth the price. Honestly the fries were better than the burger.The people there are friendly enough, but the only service related thing the staff does is bring your tray out to you. Customers order at the counter, bus their own tables, get their refills, etc. as there’s no table service, and the register you order at as soon as you walk in has the gall to give you tip suggestions of 20%, 25%, or 30%. If I need to tip a suggested 25% to supplement their wages, based off the prices they charge, then this place must not pay their employees well.Would i go back? Probably not on my own accord, only if my friends really wanted to go there. there so many other places at the same price point or cheaper in St. Louis that have way better food and value. $16+tip is more than enough to get a better burger, even at places in the same strip of buildings that Champ is in.

My wife and I really enjoyed the food. But It is pricey especially you are charge three dollars for a serving of barbecue sauce. Yes, three dollars for this little bit of barbecue sauce. A single patty burger, fries, small Caesar salad, with chicken and two drinks cost more than $40. The food is good, but not worth that much money.

Very disappointing! Not much burger and too much bun. The Champ burger is 2-2oz patties pressed wafer thin. ( 2oz patty --really??!!) The fries were not good either. $4 for those shoestring fries !!!!! I really think you can do better!!! Will not be returning
