5 When it comes to OG places of Fort Bragg, this location falls into that category. Located off the PCH hwy 1, right before the Pudding Creek Trestle. The building which Jenny's is located in is small, but it is full of life. Seating can be hard to find inside sometimes, but the good thing is there is plenty of seating outside. The parking lot here is huge so don't worry about that. As a local I like to grab my burger to go and take to one of the local beaches to eat, or back home, but I am not against sitting down to eat at Jenny's. The menu is pretty small and simple either a burger, or a cheeseburger in single,double, or even a triple if you feel you can put one down, myself I go with the double cheeseburger. You can also get fries as a side and a few other menu items. The drink menu here is soda, or milk shakes, I prefer to grab a milkshake myself. If you are a hamburger type of person then this location is the go to spot. #Jenny's #hamburger #cheeseburger #foodie #fortbragg #mendocinocinocounty #california #visitnoyoharbor #visitfortbragg #googlemaps #707shoes
4 Jenny's know and does one thing REALLY good, and that's make a tasty burger No bacon was a bummer, and the counter service was ok. Counter needs to be wiped down more often, and cook almost tossed my burger at me. It was an accident, and he apologized. Offered a new one, but it was fine. No harm no foul. He did give me a small order of fries for free, so it was all good. Food was tasty and piping hot off the grill. Friendly service and I can see why it is a town favorite
5 Best BURGER I have had in a VERY LONG TIME. They put pure LOVE in this burger and fries , we even tried the banana and strawberry milkshake so creamy good. Melted in my mouth!!!
5 Jenny's Giant Burger is clearly a late night locals to go spot. They serve up 1/3 pound patties cooked to perfection on nice fluffy buns. It's a classic albeit slightly dim diner styled burger joint. There isn't much additional heating other than what's coming from the grill. I thought their burger and fries were a solid 5/5 but was a little saddened by the iced tea, which was just brisk. Prices were fair and food was delicious. Overall a great place to stop for some grub.
5 I love this place! I've been enjoying their burgers since the mid 80s. They're burgers are always delicious, as well as their fries and shakes! They even have a delicious Garden burger, that tastes amazing! I'm sharing their recent menu,so make sure to look at it, and not the 20 year old one that comes up when you search it.
5 Great place to grab a classic burger for a pretty great price. Simple menu but high quality in each item. Burgers are delicious, staff were friendly and the service was quick. Atmosphere was also great considering its location and the restaurant’s history can be found on the walls as well.
5 Stuffed our faces like piggies here and we are not at all sorry! We ordered "regular" burgers" not giant size, fearing we would feel too stuffed. WOW! They were so delicious we ended up ordering more burgers and eating them in a matter of seconds. Fresh and flavorful. It was absolutely silent at our table except for the sound of stuffing our faces full of flavor. This is a total roadside local joint full of families and regulars. No frills only flavor. Everyone in Fort Bragg said this was the place to try and it surpassed expectations. Try the onions cooked! Get a root beer float or milkshake. Get the giant burger with EVERYTHING because it has giant taste! Treat yourself and eat one of everything at Jenny's and go home happy and well fed.
5 Was driving through the area and needed a bite. This was close so figured what the heck. Wow oh wow. One of the best burgers I’ve ever had. So much flavor, just a perfect simple burger. The menu is straight forward. Giant burgers (1/3lb) and regular, can get with cheese or double patties, fries, soda, shakes (which we don’t try) but wow they do it RIGHT. Friendly staff and clearly a local joint, people coming in, asking for the “usual”, making chit chat. Just a great, small local burger shack. Well worth trying if you are in the area!
Their burgers are the star, known for juicy 1/3 pound patties and tasty fries, with creamy milkshakes as a great complement.
It’s a casual spot perfect for a quick, satisfying burger but also cozy enough to enjoy sitting down inside or outside.
It can get busy, especially during lunch and dinner, but plenty of outdoor seating helps if inside spots fill up.
Yes, Jenny’s welcomes groups and is kid-friendly with comfortable seating options both indoors and outdoors.
Yes, the restaurant is wheelchair accessible with parking, entrances, and seating designed for comfort and convenience.
