Pie 'n Burger - Hamburger restaurant in Pasadena - 913 E California Blvd, USA

The food is delicious and the staff is friendly. The fries are great for anyone who loves crispy fries. The banana meringue pie was the highlight of our meal; the filling was absolute perfection and the meringue was fluffy with just the right amount of sweetness. I would definitely recommend going here if you’re in the area.

The food was amazing. To say I would travel all the way from Mexico again to eat a burger and fries at Pie 'n Burger wouldn’t be a lie. The boysenberry pie, the apple pie, the peach pie, the vanilla ice cream, the homemade cream, the freshly whipped coke from syrup, it’s all there. And that amazing small town dinner feeling was just the cherry on top. I had an amazing afternoon there and it was worth the trip to Pasadena. I will definitely go again. My only feedback is on the service. Naturally, the place is swamped so we had to wait a bit and eventually just sat by ourselves as we saw others do. It was also a bit difficult to have our order taken. Nonetheless, I’d still go and fight to get a burger and a slice of pie any day.

I don't like posting negative reviews when expectations aren't met. This place was average, not great. They are hand formed hamburger patties cooked on a griddle. They're not seasoned well and are expensive for what they are, in my opinion. An a la carte burger with cheese will run you $13.50. If you'd like a piece of pie...$7.50 or a ice cream shake...$9. I was really hoping it was very tasty, but my $18 burger and fries were very average. I've had much better for less. The atmosphere was quaint, mostly counter seating. The staff were not particularly friendly and parking, while free, is very limited. You can skip this and really not miss much, unfortunately.

Always good, always expensive. Burger, apple pie a la mode, slice of cake and decaf coffee -- $40 But it is tasty, the burger is not worth the money but the pie certainly is, and something of a deal at seven-odd bucks. Cake slice also excellent. The cakes , the whole cakes, look like a great deal @$65 because they are huge and tasty

This place is so good! This is such a cool diner...I believe it's been around since the 1960's. I ordered a burger and chili cheese fries. The chili cheese fries are the best I've ever had, and I've had a lot in my life 😆 The burger was pretty amazing as well. I took a slice of pie to go, lemon meringue. I should have bought the whole pie. The customer service was great, and the price was decent for the quality. I would make another hour drive to come back here.

The Platonic ideal of a burger. I've seen people complain about the price compared to In-N-Out, but in the words of the great hamburger scholar George Motz, this is like an elevated version of that. The pies are great, too, especially the boysenberry which I tried on the recommendation of the waitress, shout out for their friendly service as well 👍🏼 Cash only

This classic counter service Pasadena diner has been churning out fresh burgers and baked pies for over 60 years! I had the tuna melt with fries and it was delicious. Also their apple pie and carrot cake was fantastic as well. I received great service from all the staff and there is limited street parking outside.

Old, iconic, quaint...decent food but is it the best burger? No. Plenty of other places with better burgers and better prices. Pies are good. But still expensive. Cash only too. If it's cash only, I expect the prices to be better. It's unfortunately too expensive for decent food. If the prices dropped by 10-12%, I'd give it 4 stars. If they cleaned it up a bit so it's not as dingy and accept credit cards, I'd give it a 5. Almost $40 just for a burger and pot pie and water.
