Reviews Summary

Diners praise Back Door Burgers & More for its high-quality ingredients, delicious burgers, and exceptional service, often highlighting the friendly staff and flavorful waffle fries. However, some patrons have noted inconsistencies in preparation and seasoning, with one reviewer finding the burgers overly salty and another disappointed by the removal of the vegetarian burger option.

"First time trying them and the brooklawn burger and fries was delicious! Definitely will go back to try other menu items!"

Jeff Dacosta

"We used to order from them every week (if not twice a week). The sauce is absolutely amazing I would eat it everyday if I could. BUT recently they took the veggie burger off the menu. Literally one of the biggest bummers ever. I have called to see why and they never answer. More annoyingly they send your call to an automated voice that says “good bye” then hangs up on you. Have to find somewhere else to get a good vegetarian burger from now on….

:(

While we can appreciate downsizing, it is clear that the only thing removed from the menu is the vegetarian burger. We fail to recognize how removing the alternative diet friendly option was the only choice in downsizing. In reality, you’re second location might benefit from extending dining options for patrons with alternative diets. ¯\(ツ)/¯"

"Tried Back Door Burgers for the 1st time. Sounds like it's no longer a back or side door. Pickup is in Merrills and with the hostess. Went with the Brooklawn burger. Added a second patty and bacon. Couldn't taste the bacon jam, wondering if it was light or missed. Added some burger sauce at home and it helped. The onion rings were good. Meal was very pricey after the upcharges."

The Boston Globe

In New Bedford, one local built a dining destination

They include newcomers like Back Door Burgers & More, a casual lunch spot overlooking the harbor that serves comfort food staples and a selection of patties named after the city’s neighborhoods and parks. Another new entry, the Dough Company, offers coffees, sandwiches, and its signature “muffnuts” on the first floor of the Kilburn Mill, a massive former textile facility on the south side of the city that’s received an infusion of cool since new ownership took over four years ago. The space, which is home to 160 artist studios and small business tenants, now hosts weddings, and this summer it kicked off a rooftop music series.
