Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar -Landmark DTC

Great burgers!

Hands down the best burger I’ve had in Denver. Yes… I’ve been to the Cherry Cricket… these guys know beef and execute better than anyone else.

We came in for dinner. Had some awesome cocktails to start off and great fried pickles! I had January’s specialty burger the Hangover Burger and it was fantastic!!! Too bad it’s not on the menu full time! Great service and great experience overall!

I’m pretty impressed. The burgers are perfectly cooked and delicious. The menu options are great and if you like you can even create your own. The tots are downright amazing, SUPER crisp! All that on top of great staff and trendy atmosphere, and a pretty decent happy hour (with one of the drafts for $ 3 all day everyday). I think this place will do great in the Landmark, I’ll definitely be back.

We’ve been to this location twice since it opened. The first time was shortly after it opened and it was pretty good.
The most recent time was last weekend and was really not great. The food is SO salty, so while good, it’s just a bit much. My salad was really wilted and my husband ordered a burger that he ordered medium but was incredibly rare. We were excited for this place to open but we will not be rushing to return any time soon.
That said, the staff is wonderful and incredibly attentive and fixed the situation quickly.

The service is terrible. We went one time and were told it was a half hour wait and could sit at the bar and get a drink. We were 3 on a list and as we left we saw people finish their meals and leave. We went again last night and the hostess tried to seat us at a booth in the back of the bar which we refused and asked to be seated at one of the many empty tables in the dining area. Then the service was very slow except of course our drink order

I only had burger sliders and pastrami sliders with sweet potato fries but everything was delicious. Staff was friendly and helpful; I will definitely be back!

I have been wanting to try this place for a few months now and today was the day. It was yummy! I always test burgers by the traditional or standard burger they offer. Sometimes when they load all that crap on you can’t truly tell if it’s decent. I’m not a fan of ketchup so substituted for the big daddy sauce. This sauce made the burger! It’s a mayo base with bbq and chipotle. Great flavor. I had tater tots and smothered with green chili. Loved it all. Hubs had the bad ass burger. I don’t recommend this at all. It’s huge and has buttermilk fried bacon. Just looking at his burger was a heart attack waiting to happen. I took a bite and it was greasy. His fries were good and crisp… So the 4 star rating is only based on my meal not his.
Atmosphere is nice, busy for lunch time and ticket times seemed long for a burger place.

A co-​worker insisted I try Bad Daddy’s for an excellent burger. I cannot turn down such a request, so we stopped in to check this place out. The atmosphere is awesome. I like the look and feel of the place. The staff were attentive and eager to assist at anytime during your visit. At one point I saw about 8 staff members in just the small area we were in checking on people, monitoring other staff members to make sure everything was up to par and running food/​drinks. Great wait staff! We perused the menu and I settled with building my own burger. On each table they have a pad of paper with all of the options and you can just check your life away on what toppings you want to make your burger yours. I went with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, american cheese, ketchup and garlic mayo. I heart garlic and when I saw that as an option, I had to check the box. Brian got the Oktoberfest Bratwurst burger. Holy cow! That thing was massive! And messy! Mine was messy as well, which of course is a good thing when it comes to a burger. I liked my burger quite a bit, but felt that for the cost, it was just not the best. They are a bit pricy for what you get. I did love my experience there and the burgers were great, but not sure if this will become a frequent place for us.

This place was super busy on a Friday at noon, best to go a little earlier to beat the lunch crowd. They serve local brews on tap such as Odell’s. They have happy hour from 3−6pm. We tried the Pittsburg burger which was cooked perfectly at medium and was still juicy… the burger is topped with lettuce, tomato, red onion, and shoestring fries. All the burgers come with a side which we hose tater tots and hand cut french fries. Both burgers also came with a little dipping sauce that tasted like honey mustard and bbq… sweet but with a little zing. We also got the chefs special for December which was the magic mushroom burger (truffle aioli, arugula, four types of sautéed mushrooms). They did a great job with cooking and presentation and service. The only thing was the fries were a little over salted. I would definitely go back.

This was my second time here. Hubby and I decided to come for an early lunch.
First I got a Bloody Mary and yummy. Anything with bacon taste good. It was spicy and really filled the spot.
Food.
Started with the green Chile cheese fries. Tasty and lots of cheese, would have preferred more green chilies but it still had a little kick and would get again. I got the tuna burger. It was sushi grade ground tuna and cooked rare. First I would have preferred it to be a tuna steak, more meaty. The slaw that came with it was tasty and had a great ginger flavor. I ended up not eating the bun as it was too much.
Hubby. He had the bacon burger and it is big but tasty and Juicy.
We sat at the bar and the service was good.
Be warned that when the door opens you do get a nice breeds so remember a sweater. Or have an extra drink.
We will be back.

Stopped in for lunch today. Really good selection of burgers, sides, and beers. The server told us that they try to use only local beers for each of their locations — pretty impresive. And the prices are really reasonable too. I got the Southern burger (with chili and slaw on it) and it was unique and I could tell they use a high quality of beef, and it tasted great. The service was very good too. My only negative is that the fried pickles, while really delicious, were really expensive at around $ 7.50 for a small-​ish serving. I’ll come back though.

I’ve been back several times since my initial visit.
Service = great
Beer = stupid good
Food = deadly delicious

Bad Daddy’s was A-​OK. Nothing special for the pricey burger price tag. Lark Burger provides same quality for less.
I appreciate their clever burger creations (italian burger with mozzarella & pesto, western with bbq & onion straws, patty-​melt-​style, etc.) but nothing really spoke to me so I made a custom burger with mushrooms and swiss. Apparently they have a burger of the month and December features a mushroom burger with four different varieties of mushrooms, including yummy morels — so I will have to go back.
The Bad A$$ burger that my husband had was overrated. The buttermilk fried bacon was impractical (burger was 6 inches tall) and not too tasty. The burger did not taste seasoned (simple salt & pepper) and the bacon was over-​fried and near the burned side. Side choices also left much to be desired. Would love to see some more alluring sides because after having the average sweet potato fries and the average homemade potato chips, not much else interests me. Maybe the slaw?
Favs were the homemade chili — great proportion of meat to tomatoes to beans. Well done! And HATS OFF TO THE MARGARITA. A good Marg is the key to my heart, so this will keep me coming back for sure. How can you beat a $ 6 margarita with a limit of 2 — you know they are strong, but more importantly, tasty!
Server was knowledgeable, pleasant, and friendly, but over-​attentive. If I wanted to chat with my server 90% of my meal, I would eat at the bar. :)

Delish!!! Love the burgers here and the wait staff is on point!

We came here on a Friday night and quickly found seats at the bar. The bartenders were so friendly and efficient and made our experience that much better. the food is outstanding and the atmosphere is so fun. I can’t wait to return!

We came here for a bite before a movie last week, although I’ve been to the Cherry Creek location before. They just opened up but seem to be running pretty smoothly. As usual we sat at the bar. They have some of their own creations for burgers but we opted to create our own. They make it efficient to do so, you fill out the slip on your table marking off whatever toppings, sauces, etc you would like and it’s taken back to the kitchen. The burgers were pretty good, for a side we each got tater tots which everyone we spoke to that worked there raved about. Their tap list is huge with only one handle not being a Colorado beer which I appreciate quite a bit. And although we didn’t indulge, they have alcoholic milkshakes too!
The service was friendly, a manager touched our table as well. Overall it was a pretty good experience for a quick bite in Landmark.

Well the food was good but it took a long time; and the co-​worker who doesn’t eat beef or pork had bacon on his burger. The manager comes by and asks how things were and really doesn’t stay to listen to any response.
The burger business is competitive and they need to up their game if they want to stay in business in this tech center location.
In the end they comped both the burger with bacon and gave him a coupon for a free burger next time. Everyone has bad days; so I’ll try to let this one go.

Just like any Bad Daddy’s location, this one does not disappoint!
Besides bbq, Bad Daddy’s is the main thing I missed when I moved from Charlotte. Their burgers are spectacular and if thats not your thing, they have tons of other options. Luckily this location is close to work, located in Landmark in the old Ali Baba’s location and it’s on fire! I stopped here with a colleague for lunch the other day and we were in and out in less than an hour. My go to when I go to Bad Daddy’s is the Sam I Am, burger with pesto, cheese and a fried egg but I didn’t want to have that all over my face so I went with something more refined, the French. Now that I’ve had that, the Sam I Am has serious competition. The Frenchie is a turkey burger with granny smith apples, brie, bacon and garlic mayo. It’s what dreams are made of and I wish I could live in a world where I could eat that everyday but also still fit into my pants. Sigh, such is life.
Fun fact – the Mama Ricotta Burger and Cantina Burger are named after restaurants in Charlotte. Anytime I see that it gives me a sense of nostalgia. Bad Daddy’s also has a killer happy hour during the regular happy hour time and later on at night, check it out!
I’m stoked to see Bad Daddy’s popping up in the Denver Metro area – long live their burgers!

I think this is exactly what the Landmark needed. It’s a perfect place to catch a game and enjoy a delicious burger.
They have build your own burger where on a pad of paper they have all the options for a burger and it makes it extremely easy to customize a burger.
We sat at the bar and everyone at the bar was extremely friendly and helpful.
