This is exactly as listed. A burger place with a nice selection bottled sodas, crispy fries, tasty hot dogs in a homey environment. If you require table service, look elsewhere, but if not the balance of service is friendly and as fast as possible. That said, be prepared for a 30-45 minute wait for your food during busy hours, as the line can be long. That said, the burgers are excellent and the rest of the food is good too. It was worth a trip from Durham, but having been, we won't likely make the trip again.

Nick's has been a favorite of mine for years. The food is always great. Fresh ingredients and the service is good. Everything is cooked to order, so expect a short wait while your food is prepared

The food is okay, definitely tasty but not sure it's worth the 45 min wait time. Wouldn't necessarily recommend but it's a decent spot!

Heard Nick's Old Fashioned Hamburgers was rated #1 in North Carolina by Yelp. We had to try it since it wasn't too far from us. Wow!! You can't go wrong if you are looking for a TASTY Old Fashioned Hamburger and not a McDonalds, Wendy's, or Burger King burger. The staff were very generous and polite. This is one of the few gems in our area that is must do. If you are looking for high quality and delicious cheeseburger try Nick's. You will not be disappointed. Go visit

The food is outstanding!!! The service is great considering that they were slammed! The restaurant is what you expect for a fast paced mom and pop sandwich shop. No matter what, it's worth the wait!!!

We've been told how great this place was but could never get the restaurant. Finally made it out to Nick's and it was not disappointing! Their regular burger with cheese is a standard burger; nothing to call home about. It seems that you need to order a "specialty burger" for it to be more tasty and impressive. If you like burgers with jalapeños, you have to try the Noah Burger! It was interesting and will be ordering it again. Their crinkle fries are very crispy and a great addition to the burgers. Will definitely be going here again soon.

Fresh, local, and amazing food! Outstanding service from a very friendly staff and the price is less than a fast food restaurant. Christian ✝️ atmosphere and great music as well. It's actually shocking to find a place this amazing nowadays.

It's always busy, but for good reason. Best burger I've found in NC yet, maybe even the best anywhere. They offer a gluten-free bun, which is a nice option. Go eat there.Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free bun option

very long lines/wait time but prepared for that. Burger was great fries were good I wouldn't recommend the chocolate milk shake. Can definitely see what all the hype is about with the burgers.

Drove nearly 2 hours to find out it was closed on Saturday before Easter. I checked hours ahead of time and there was no indication that it was closed for the day on their website nor on Google. I could have found a better way to spend 4 hours for an afternoon. Food might be good. But I’m not going try this trip again.
