Last Place Burgers
The Menu
The menu stays tight, and that restraint works in its favor. Each burger variation feels intentional rather than experimental for the sake of it. Instead of chasing trends, Last Place focuses on small tweaks that highlight the base burger rather than bury it. No matter which direction you go, the core identity stays intact smash burger first, everything else second.
The Standard & Tots
8.5/10
The burgers are on the smaller side if you order them on their own. They’re clearly designed as focused smash burgers rather than oversized, stacked plates, so if you’re expecting something massive, this isn’t that. That said, the size makes sense once you build the meal out. Pair a burger with tots and everything clicks the balance feels right, and you walk away satisfied without feeling weighed down. What they lack in size, they make up for in execution. The patties are well-seared, the cheese is properly melted, and the buns keep everything together without overpowering the meat. These are burgers meant to be eaten easily and cleanly, not wrestled with. On their own they feel modest, but as part of a combo, they turn into a solid, complete meal.
Roadmap Brewing Co.
One of the bigger draws here is the connection to Roadmap Brewing Co. If you’re into craft beer, this setup makes a lot of sense. You can grab a solid smash burger and pair it with a well made local beer without having to go anywhere else. It turns Last Place Burgers into more than just a food stop it becomes part of a longer hang. The burger menu may stay simple, but the brewery adds another layer to the experience. It’s an easy place to settle in, especially if your idea of a good meal includes a pint alongside it.
The OG & Fries
8.5/10
The OG burger sets the baseline for what Last Place does well. The smash patty is aggressively seared, creating those crisp, lacy edges that carry most of the flavor. It’s salty without being overwhelming, and the beef stays juicy through the center. Melted American cheese does exactly what it’s supposed to do no sharpness, no distraction, just richness that blends into the meat. The bun is soft and lightly toasted, holding everything together without stealing attention. This is a straightforward burger that succeeds because nothing is fighting for control.
My Overall thoughts
Last Place Burgers keeps things simple and stays in its lane. The burgers are well-executed but on the smaller side, which makes the fries or tots feel like a necessary part of the order rather than an optional add-on. Those sides are straightforward and average not bad, not memorable but they do enough to turn a single burger into a complete, satisfying meal. Nothing here is trying to be flashy. The fries and tots won’t steal the spotlight, and the burgers won’t overwhelm you with size, but everything works together when ordered as a whole. It’s a solid burger stop built on execution and restraint, and one that makes sense if you appreciate simplicity done right.
