    Topping their legendary Cricket burger with green chile, an egg, and bacon is always a good choice. Wash it down with one of 23 beers on tap. Read more

    I thought the waiter was crazy when he told me to order the Cricket Burger with bacon, cream cheese, jalapeño, and raspberry jam, but it may have been the most delicious burger I've ever had.

    Yes, you can get some wild toppings (cream cheese, raspberry jam, jalapeno) and it's good, but a more traditional burger is where this place really shines.

    Absolutely Delicious! The bison burger is definitely a favorite, but ALL of their menu items are really amazing! The wait isn't too long and the staff is super friendly! Always a pleasure visiting!

    Cricket Burger with Bacon, Cream Cheese, Jalapeño, and yes Raspberry Jam. Unreal. I was skeptical at the suggestion, but just go with it.

    Cherry Cricket is a classic burgers-and-beer kind of joint where the company is good, the coolers stocked and the burgers among the best in town. Great patio, too. Read more

    It gives a comfortable atmosphere in the center of Cherry Creek, but it has elevated untraditional burger toppings like peanut butter, cream cheese & wing sauce to new heights. [Eater 38 Member]

    Great burgers, good beer selection, nice outdoor patio. Serves food later than anything else in the neighborhood.

    I'm from Chicago and everyone said this pace has the best burgers. Well we get there and there is a 20 min wait, while multiple tables are open, order a burger medium rare, comes back a hockey puck :(

    Go for happy hour, they have two a day. Wide variety of burger toppings, I get sour cream, raspberry jam, and grilled onions. Love their atomic wings too!

    The Green Chili is some of the best in town. While fans rave about their burger, we went bananas over the Reuben! Whatever you order, get a side of Frings!

    Awesome, large burgers - very tasty, and customized to exactly what you want. Thin-cut fries are better seasoned than the steak-cut. Would recommend.

    You’re the boss at this build-your-own-burger joint--you could even top your patty with grilled pineapple and peanut butter. (But, um, we wouldn’t recommend it.) Read more

    Their hot herbed artichoke dip is to die for. Super delicious. A bit of a dive but food and service is what keeps me coming back.

    Food was very good. Atmosphere was phenomenal. Made this Texan very happy. "20 minute wait" was more like 11-13. A+!

    A very tasty burger, and they know the proper way to cook it. Definitely take advantage of their many toppings.

    They can do half baskets on the side, which is a great size for one person.

    They are known to be the best burger in Colorado. The patty is very juicy and I had mine with an egg, grilled onions and green chili sauce. It's good, but Texas burger joints are much better.

    Burgers are one of a kind, literally, since you make your own. I recommend getting the 1/4 burgers cause those are filling enough.

    If you can handle it, order the half-pounder Cricket Burger. Then, ask them to slather on peanut butter and a fried egg. No, really. You'll have the world's most unforgettable, decadent burger.

    Everything is amazing. I always get a bunless burger with white cheddar and grilled onions with French fries.

    Cricket Burger, the shakes, and the wings + stuffed peppers are all wonderful. Be prepared to wait on Saturday nights, though.

    In 1945, Cherry Cricket opened as "Mary Zimmerman's Bar" and the bar was actually the living room of her home, which sat where the Sears Auto Center is today. We say that's a downgrade.

    The Cricket can get crazy crowded. You may be able to skirt the wait list by asking to sit at the back bar.

    Some say it's the best burger in town. I would rate it high, but there are other greats in town too.

    Ask for DJ Johnny O. He will charm and seduce you as you taste the magic of a cricket burger topped with jalapeños, cream cheese, and love. DJ Johnny O will smile and make you comfortable, oh so comfy
