Yummy, fresh. They should tidy up the carryout area. It is separate from the sit-down area and the light is really dirty out there. That being said the food was so delicious I dont even care. In addition The Waitresses could be a lot more nicer so, then I would have left a tip. I know the pictures may not look all that great but believe me its so good.
Sliders and fries a staple of America and these are right up there with the best in town
I have been coming here since I was a kid. Nothing has changed except the prices which is awesome. The food is excellent for a burger diner. Dont expect upscale dining here, but they are quick and consistent.
Excellent food and service. Highly recommended for their sliders!
First time here and it was amazing. The food melted in my mouth. The ladys who work here are very friendly. The menu is small so its easier to pick what you want instead of having a million choices. However, the place is small when you walk in but its clean and cozy.
Awesome food. Just the way sliders are supposed to be. I havent ever heard or experienced anything bad about this place.
Pros: The Legend and by consensus #1 among the Detroit area prefab greaseburger joints. When we were first dating my wife and I went to a Halloween party dressed as Hunter House (me, because I grew up east side) and Greenes (her, she grew up west). We each brought a bag of burgers from our respective grills and did a blind taste test with the guests. Despite HHs being fresher, Greenes got every vote.Theres a reason locals order a stack of Greenes for their weddings, why cousins who come into town wont see their rooms until theyre properly smelling like onions and greasy goodness. Theres a reason wives around here know not to say Just feed the kids to their husbands (see photo for result). Theres a reason, back when they were open late, that people would stick around for another drink in hopes of pushing the night into Greenes Time, and why a spouse who did so on Saturday night can get excused if theres a white bag with two dbl cheeseburgers and a sloppy grease stain in the fridge waiting for their significant other on Sunday morning.I once was there and saw a soldier just returning from a tour in Iraq. He ordered 10 and housed them. This was his promise to himself if he ever made it home. And yeah, that tracks.Con: Between Greenes and our sports teams, theres no such thing as a poor cardiologist in Farmington Hills.
The way they operate is very cool and interesting to me. The food itself is pretty good even though they dont carry mayonnaise lol
I gave it two stars because the food is probably good. Too bad we didn’t get a chance to try it. We showed up 45 mins before close and they wouldn’t serve us. Was very rude and not concerned with serving the public. Didn’t even politely offer take out.
Still the same we used to go to Greens when I was in high school and I graduated in 1967 burgers are great still taste the sane 😃
If sliders are your thing, then this your place! Greenes has other menu items, including a full breakfast. Check it out!!❤️❤️
Maybe Covid had an impact? I still think the employees here do a good job. Tonight I ordered through Door Dash. This trash company continues to scam customers throughout America, and yes I am one of them simply because it is simple to place an order and usually get your order. Usually means the food you actually ordered. Now I understand that the DD employees do not tip the restaurant employees and that concerns and upsets me a lot. Sometimes I wonder if the restaurant employees sabotage or purposely short an order just to get back at Door Dash when all that may be happening is screwing the customer. Not saying that is what happened here tonight, but my order from Greenes was short and cold. Smashed inside one bag was everything (suggest 2 bags next time so as not smash the food), but also QC the order so nothing comes up short. When I called and asked the employee at Greenes about who I should contact , the stoic and unapologetic response was Door Dash. Bust as I thought about it you took the order over your computer as you told me and then you bag and fill it (and then some) but you leave out items that cost money for us, the customer. One of the options was I could come and pick up the missing items (inside I was saying to myself youre kidding me, you have to be?). But, No, she was not. And no apology and then I hung up in disgust at the lack of concern. After all, I wasnt a customer in person. Then, try chatting with Door Dash Help. OMG I after 1 hour and 14 minutes I finally got my money for the missing items and a $5 inconvenience fee. Yep, thats it. Then I had to fight for the administrative fees and tip they charged me. Why should they keep it when I did not receive for what I paid for? In then end it was a an experience beyond hell. I dont blame Door Dash as much as I do Greenes. At least Door Dash worked to fix a problem, if my order had been fulfilled correctly, then I wouldnt have had to go through all of that. One other note and not sure anyone else noticed, but the burgers DO NOT taste as good a they did some years back. I noticed the buns are a little darker and they are horrible tasting. So actually getting my money back for 2 Double Cheeseburgers wasnt a bad deal as the taste is not the same and actually dry, my opinion only on that.
Good place to get some good food. Classic 50s style diner. Not a whole lot on the menu, but its good especially when they answer their phones
The BEST!!! My dad is home from Colorado so we had to stop in and get burgers!! Not only were they absolutely perfect, the ladies working were are just beautiful!! So kind and welcoming!! Very comfortable being in their restaurant!
The burgers were great and the chocolate milkshake was delicious, but WOW WAS THE STAFF SO TOTALLY RUDE AND AMBIVALENT. The girl working could not possibly have hated her job or the customers in the restaurant more, and she made sure to just ooze misery and disdain. For example, we ordered a double cheeseburger... in every other spot a double means two patties. Here it means twice the meat in a single patty, but it still looks like a single. When we asked about it we got an enormous eye roll and had it explained to us as if we were the stupidest people on the planet for not knowing they serve a double differently than every other place on the planet. Jeeze.Not only that but the ventilation system just blows the grease from the stove and the friers into your face so our eyes were watering the entire time. Other customers commented on this as well.However... the burgers were delicious and the shake was perfect. Id do carryout in the future but you couldnt pay me to dine in and have to spend time with that person behind the counter again.
I have been a fan of Greenes almost my whole life. I am very disappointed about my visit today. First of all, the Google site still says employees wear masks, but they were not wearing masks. This should be updated. I waited in the carryout window, as another person was ordering. I overheard them discussing that they will not be wearing masks because theres a pill for that for COVID, which I can only assume is Ivermectin. But what really bugs me, is after the person of color ordering left the carryout window, the person who took my order, who Ive seen here for years, said She is beautiful for a black woman and even repeated it. I will not be returning.Edit: Greenes responded and said, As for the rest we can not speak for another customer and what they may say. The other customer is not the one who said theres a pill for that, or she is beautiful for a black woman. The person who said this works at Greenes. I have read two other reviews mentioning racist behavior as well.
As good as it always had been in the past. Great burgers, great fries, great onion rings. The staff was friendly and attentive. I have been coming here since I was a little kid, and I see no reason to stop, not even if diabeetus takes my legs. :)
Tasty little loose-slider/burgers and fresh fries. The double might not look very stacked in the meat department, but itll fill ya! Lots of room to sit on a Sunday afternoon.
Grew up on Greenes. I get 60 to 100 to fly back to AZ each year (frozen)and ALL of my AZ peeps LOVE them too!
Nice service. Quick and delicious burgers. Love this place. 5 🌟
They make a great breakfast! Been coming for breakfast for a while now. Love it!
Best hamburgers. Reminds me of my childhood. When my family would go there
Used to be my go-to place for small burgers and good fries now everything is bland not the same as it used to be years ago with the taste.
Not a lot of flavor, not very good at all..would not come back. Attention was good, however product was lacking in comparison..
Great late night joint! The staff accommodated our group even though it was close to closing. The food was nice and greasy just like you want it for late night carryout. :) I really liked the burgers but the fries, not so much. The shake was ok and the Pepsi was… Pepsi lol
These sliders are legit. The lady at the grill looked like an artist the way she moved those burgers around. And the food tastes amazing. As an out-of-towner, its always fun to find local gems like this.
The sliders were just ok. I didn’t like the meat patties, needed salt and I rarely salt my food. It may have tasted bad because the onions were charred instead of caramelized. It makes a difference in the taste and texture. I thought they were overpriced for what you were getting.I have better slider places near me that I would not drive out of my way for this again.
Perfect old school smashed onion burgers the way I grew up eating them 😋 👌 love the chicken tenders and fries
The older lady at this place that takes your carry out order is rude everytime I have been there. The last time, was the last time.
I live in Tennessee now. While up in Michigan, I thought I would relive a fond memory.Certainly NOT the same! Onions were crisp and the buns were completely dried out (hard). So disappointed.
Ordered a patty melt and this is what I got.
1 woman running the show when i was there with my wife. She did an amazing job getting food out quick and with accuracy. She went from 2 customers to about 10 in less than 15 minutes and she handled it like a pro. Phenomenal food combined with great customer service equals a 20/10 experience.
I tell myself it’s the healthier version of fast food. You gotta tell her what she wants to hear.
Greenes Hamburgers is one of the most iconic restaurants in the metro detroit area. Known by all, for some of the best sliders in Michigan. With onion, pickle and a little ketchup, you cannot go wrong. Same order every time: two triple cheeseburgers, a chilli cheese fry and a coke. The staff is always accommodating and friendly. This is just one of those iconic Michigan joints you have to hit if your in the area.
Was in the area and decided to give it a try. Now that seating is allowed, they’re allowing 5 people in the dining area. Server was very helpful. Great sliders added Franks, ketchup and mustard to my 3 singles and had it with the grilled onions and pickles. French fries were the crinkle cut and we’re perfect. Nice little place, would stop again if I’m in the area.
One of the best little burger joints in town!
Very good sliders! They have onions rings too which is a bonus. My last visit was the first time I have ever been here sober and it was still amazing!
Two thumbs up, as always!!Live out by Brighton now, but never miss a chance for their CHEESEBURGERS when Im in the area.sometimes make a special trip to get my fix, LOL. LOVE EM
Their chili is homemade not out of a can. It really makes a huge difference in their chili cheese fries! Im also a fan of their sliders with grilled onions, cheese and pickles, it just hits the spot!
This place is a great old-school slider place. Short, focused menu. Get the cheeseburger slider, I like the singles, and an order of onion rings, as theirs are great. Good quick service as well. This is a neighborhood institution!
Order 2 cheeseburgers. You wont be sorry. They are sooooo delicious! Go in, sit at the cool 1950s counter, get a coke, 2 cheeseburger WITH the onions, a plate of fries. It will make you happy and full! Great lil find! Love it.
First time for breakfast, good food, fast, attentive staff.
Theres a little bit of magic here. If you are looking for something genuine and some good burgers. Make a pit stop here.
I LOVE Greenes!!! Perfect sliders, perfect onion rings! Fun, informal place to eat! Would do 5 stars if you could get a slider ( one), onion rings and a small pop for less than $10.
If you like fresh made burgers, this is the place for you!
Theres a reason this place is one of the most popular sliders joints in Metro Detroit. Its amazing!
Sliders so good took me back to my childhood.........
Worlds best hamburger. Everything about their food is 100% perfect. The patties are perfectly cooked, with a great crust on the outside. The caramelization on the onions adds a delicious flavor and smell. In my opinion, the double hamburger is the way to go. Also, make sure to get more than one, because youll wish you had another as soon as you finish the first. Dont pass up an opportunity to visit Greenes, youll never have a better slider.
This diner deserves its spot in the pantheon of great Metro Detroit burger spots. I ordered two double cheeseburgers and onion rings, and theyre everything I could have wanted. Plus, the price point made them a great value.
This is the place. The hamburgers are awesome and the prices are perfect.
An old loyal friend. Wandering aimlessly in the haunted dreams of my Farmington past at 330am, and the white beacon. 2 cheese with, and ketchup and mustard squirters, the thin stream is key. Thanks
A Classic! Best sliders in Detroit. Greens has been making real old fashioned Detroit sliders the right way long before they became popularized and bastardized as appetizers on every restaurants menu.
Loved the 25 burgers and 5 fries and 2 shakes and 1 pop for about 60.00 dollars not bad when you have a large family yummy planning to go again soon 😁👍
One of the best places for a quick fast food, the staff is super friendly, I eat here at least twice a week. They are amazing!
Good burgers, but within ten minutes of ordering and picking up our order, our order was wrong. When we got home we realized they gave us four single burgers instead of the two singles and two doubles that we ordered and paid for. A bit pricey for the size burger you receive, too.
Love the small menu. Id only get one cheeseburger next time and share the fries. Id like to try a chocolate shake.
I grew up at 10 mile and orchard lake, stopped in the other day and these sliders are just as good today as they were 40 years ago. My simple opinion these are the best sliders on planet earth. Hint..... Get the double with extra onions
Good service, but a little pricey compared to Bates Burgers.
Cheeseburgers were better than last time. Short wait.
Good sliders, as good Hunter House or the Telway. Carry out service was fast and efficient. The food is priced more than fairly for a Farmington location. The real star on the menu is the full breakfast with the ham slice, its a monster value.
Hamburgers were as good as I recall when I had some about 1965 when I was a 64 graduate of NFHSs first graduating class. Not a 5 because my wife was not too impressed, but what does she know?
Sorry to say the hamburgers were not good. Onions tasted as though they were soaked in sugar water. Barely any hamburger and did not taste any hsmburger. Bun was like the Hawiian bread that is yellow and extremely sweetMy blood sugar hit the roof.
Love this place, stop in all the time. The food is always great, 24 hours a day, and the staff always are ready to help with a smile. The classic white building is unmistakable, and the aroma gets you hungry before you even get inside! Dont pass this place by, definitely step inside. Youll be surprised by the menu, too, offering a lot more than just sliders. Though, at least for me, that what keeps me coming back time after time.
Very good food! The staff is very friendly but you do have to just say what you want. You gotta speak up haha. I don’t usually like chocolate milkshakes but theirs was very good! Nice and cold too. They have indoor and outdoor seating.
They said they close at 10. I put up at 9:50. And they would not serve me in the doors was locked. Very disappointment when I’m spending my money. I will never go there again.
Super good sliders. This place came up as the place for them on my Detroit trip and they did not disappoint.
My grandma would take me here as a child. Been coming to greenes since 1983. And may have been eating them before then. But my first visit was 1983, last visit was last week. ( Jan. 2021 ) great food and always friendly staff.
Unbelievable. I’ve lived in Arizona for 25 years now, but I grew up around 7 mile and Schaefer in Detroit, where the original Greene’s Hamburgers was located. This place is a legend. I had a paper route (1973) and the first sign of my financial independence was to afford a Greene’s hamburger whenever I wanted one (which was often).I’ve talked about this place my whole life as being the best hamburger I ever had. I thought they were done when they left that location. How wonderful to see the tradition lives. I will be seeing you on my next visit to Detroit.
The cheeseburger...Very small amount of meat, in ratio to the bun. Even with the double. Tasted okay.The fries....they were just mediocre. Some hot, some luke warm.And the onion rings were not worth the price, and over cooked.
Best sliders and milkshakes in town, always clean with relatively friendly employees. Wish they were back open to 24/7 but the current hours are still great!
This places cooks the onions just right, giving the burgers the flavor through and through. Shakes are thick, and the fries are always just perfect. Order the double cheeseburgers and treat yourself to some real comfort food!
My job takes me away from home , so its usually hard to find food that tastes just as good. Well this place has honestly had me feeling like I was eating at my favorite fast food joint back home. Great service and fast. The breakfast is great too. Will definitely be eating here one last time before leaving for home.
Please do yourself a favor and dine in for the best possible experience. The milk shake and 4 burgers with some fries is all you need to have a great time.
Great food and service 👌 open 24/7
Great burger joint. Really good food for the price and the workers are always super friendly (Even if I’m only waiting for a couple minutes they’ll throw in a drink or some fries on the house because of the “long wait”)
One of my favorite places. The staff had the unfortunate job of dealing with some drunk idiots who were whistling to get attention. They were totally rude and hostile to the staff, and they handled it like a pro- got them their check and out the door in record time.Great food and the staff really cares about their customers and each other. Highly recommend.
Love this place! Amazing Food and their staff are top notch! I could eat here everyday.
The food is good but overly priced. I’m guessing it’s a “mom and pop “ stop which is cool, but I’ve been to a lot and still got my monies worth. I had a shake, fries, and a double hamburger which you would think be 2 patties but it’s actually 1—-and it looks like a single. Tbh my little niece could have ate it as her happy meal, just missing the toy lol
Food is delicious all the time.
A classic 50s diner with very minimal options but they stick to their lane and do a good job at it. Greens VS Bates is the great debate from what I hear, so I tried them both. By far, Bates is the winner. I came here with my bride and enjoyed a couple cheese burgers and a plate of fries. The burger was tasty overall but the meat was bleh. I did enjoy the fries and the chocolate shake was good as well. It was rather busy, right about the lunch hour, and service took a bit of time. Id go back for sure and definitely recommend trying it out if youve never been.
A true classic since 1957. Ive been getting food here for 20 years and the quality of food and service has always been superb. I even get requests to bring their burgers with me out out town. A true classic. I hope theyre around another 50 years!
Normally very good.I didnt like the chili fries.
Fresh fast burgers! Great taste.Family atmosphere staff.Shout out to the mother and doughter of the business she works midnight and her and her mom both make the best burgers. Keep it going girls!
HORRIBLE customer service. The waitresses are very rude. They take forever to service you. Every time I’ve come in there they have ignored me when I try to ask for something. I’m convinced all of the waitresses are racist. I’ve had my change thrown in my face, food dropped on the counter, and given the wrong order. Greene’s burgers isn’t the best burger place , their food is decent but their customer service makes it worse. If I could rate them 0 stars I would. I will NEVER be back and spending my money to be treated like garbage.
Price is a bit high but food is great.
When youre in the mood for greasy sliders, this is a great option. Inside is very clean unlike a typical dive burger joint. Theres a cool walkup window for takeout. The burgers themselves are excellent, full of grease, and tasty. Highly recommend.
If a grilled cheeseburger if your thing, get the tripple cheese with grilled onions! Take a chance with the onion rings. You will not be disappointed. Two ways to order, on the south side for takeout in a heated alcove, inside to eat at clean stainless counters. I think they are best inside.
Great staff and great food it was delicious. My family has been coming here for years. Always great.
I’ve been coming here since I was born and my papas been coming here longer. I’ve always loved their food and the ladies that work there are amazing. They’ve become family. Thank you!
Sliders here are delicious but portions leave a lot to be desired, French fries are crinkle cuts that obviously come frozen in bags, shake was delicious but having only one flavor is lackluster. On the whole if you want a great slider experience I would recommend Bates over Greenes, but Id go to Greenes before about any other burger place.
Burgers were pretty good. But, the fries and onion rings tasted like they were sitting there for a while. They were barely warm!
14 or 16 of us met there and caused an after dinner rush. We were in no hurry, were totally laid back and polite. There is no world where the woman who waited on us should be in customer service. We chose to find it part of the charm and enjoyed our tasty burgers.
This place offers the best classic 50s style greasy hamburgers I have ever had, equally good as Bates just a mile down the road. Ill pick whichever one is closest on my trip. But Bates closes I think it 10 p.m. so usually its Greenes for me.When you have a craving anytime or especially after a night out at a bar, this place is open 24/7 and fantastic choice for sitting at the counter and gorging yourself onion rings or fries and cheese-and-onion-topped, succulently greasy burgers. The white bun melts in your mouth. With another style of burger this might be a negative. With a juicy 50s style burger, its part of the whole great food thats bad for you experience.In fact it comes off the griddle hot, with the bun already melting from the burger by the time it gets to your plate or carry out bag!I rarely get the fries or anything else but a burger and onion rings. The rings are crispy on the outside, pretty greasy but not dripping, and boast a full deep-fried onion flavor. In short, for the once or twice a month treat of 50s style diner food, focusing on their famous burgers, this place is at the top of the few local choices!
Good place to grab a great slider. A bit pricey but worth the price. 2 sliders will fill you up. And they are super tasty!
LUV, LUV, LUV this place!! The shakes are out of this world 🌎!! You really better be able to suck on that straw, because these things are super thick. The fries 🍟 are great too. I also enjoy the burgers 🍔. I urge you to run 🏃, not walk 🚶 there. SOON!!
Excellent food. What a change from the big name production line fast food places!Open 24 hours. Best eaten hot right off the grill. Great chili too. Old style diner.
The greatest sliders anywhere! I make trips out to Farmington just to visit here sometimes. If you are not afraid of a little grease, my favorite meal is two double cheeseburgers with everything and an order of fries. Simply phenomenal!
Always worth the drive after a long day of work and not in the mood to cook at home. Great burgers and fries. Had the onion rings today and I love em - not too much batter and a perfect crunch. They also serve breakfast food and everyone else seems to order a shake with their meals - guess Ill have try next time!
We love our customers here at Green. A little extra love for our little ones schools out for summer!
Original type sliders. They use lots of onion and pickle. Crinkle cut french fries. Wait can be long so it is suggested to call 15 minutes ahead so your order will be ready. Food is cooked only after being ordered, no heat lamps and such, so food is fresh and tasty. Have not tried breakfast, and have only ever ordered takeout.
Incredibly tasty 1950s-style burgers. They have other menu items but I have only ever tasted the burgers and the onion rings which are excellent as well. If you want an unhealthy, greasy burger, with standard fixings like grilled onions, mustard and ketchup and pickles, its perfect for after late-night concerts or after bars close. They are open 24/7. I wish I had found out about it when I was in high school because I think its been there over 50 years.
Really good, be prepared to wait a bit for your food though. but definitely worth it
I always stop at Greenes whenever Im near for a quick slider! Delicious and always hot! Dont forget to bring cash to tip the staff, the management does not allow gratuities to be placed on Credit cards 😥
I love sliders, but no, not here. The meat was flavorless. I wouldnt expect great service at a place like this, so I am not penalizing them for that, but you should not expect it either. Staff were on their cell phones the entire time we were there, and it was difficult to get their attention.
They have awesome burgers and the ladies are nice. My family and I love Greens Hamburgers and have for over 30 years and will continue for many more to come. And dont forget to tip my ladies😘
Everything you expect and more. You can watch them hand roll your hamburger right there, they dont use pre-made patties. Simple menu and fast freshly cooked food.
Good burgers. Cooked to order like your grandparents used to do. They arent big burgers so dont assume your going to get full. Get a double and you will be ok. Service is great and the cooks are friendly.
The last time I was there I ordered 2 doubles with no bun and only got singles was told doubles are just one big patty. How is it a double then? Not the worst part ordered a chocolate milk shake and had a long piece of hair in it... 🤮
Some times you just need a one or two of these hamburgers, a plate of fries, and a chocolate shake. Fine, so its not healthy and its not vegan and they dont have 25 different menu items. Not the point, thanks for playing. Also the atmosphere at Greenes is a trip, possibly back in time 😎
Burgers are way too expensive for the size! Otherwise I would have given a 5 star. 6 burgers coupla fries and two large cokes $25 bucks and change, $30 with the tip.....
Omg, stopped in for a few sliders because I was headed west and didnt want to drop down and over to 9-middlebelt for my fave slider. There is several places like this (white smooth sided building with a closet takeout room). Should have gone to McD rather than here. Its nothing like the others. Meat was a fraction of the bun. Onion amount rivaled the meat. Tasted like they scraped the grill and made it a condiment. And a hefty price. Yikes! Too close to better alternatives.
This is the best place on this planet for comfort food. Perfect combination of onions meat pickles and a steamed bun. Onions are grilled to perfection. Its worth the price of an airline ticket just to go back to Greenes for a few hamburgers that cost less than five bucks. Perfect crinkle cut french fries.
When I was 7 we moved from Detroit to Carleton.I had been craving these burgers for 46 years and just found out this place is just down the road from my doctors office.They still taste the same😁😁😁😁.
A local staple. The slider-style burgers are great, but the chicken tenders are awesome. The staff is pretty awesome too, and they take extra good care of their regulars.
Classic Sliders, fries and milkshakes. If you’ve never been to Greene’s, you should try them out. Their classing double or triple sliders are a bit on the greasier side but we love them. Two double cheese burgers with milk shake is our usual go-to.
First time here, decent quick burger. Staff friendly and food came fast. Bates has better sliders, these dont have enough meat. But Id stop in again.
We USED to go to Greenes Hamburgers of Farmington Hills up until we had an issue with the blond waitress (shaped like a duck).She had a large 175 double cheese burgers with everything carry-out order but did not have the brains to subtract from/add to the large order so we didnt have to wait the 45 minutes we waited.She did however give us our pop and french fries within a couple minutes of taking our order. I gave the french fries back and asked her to make hot fries for us when our burgers were ready. After the 30 - 45 minute wait, our burgers were finally ready!She pulled the cold fries I returned off a shelf and gave them to us.We walked out and havent been back!If Greenes ever gets rid of that trailer trash blond, well start going back...Hey Blondie! Quack! Quack!
This is a wonderful, greasy slider restaurant. The food is inexpensive, and burgers melt in your Mouth. Make sure you do yourself a real favor and get a chocolate shake. And then they forget your onion rings.
Ive been eating sliders here for over 55 years and they still taste the same as when I was in high school. Get the double cheeseburgers though.
I love Greens food. Absolutely love it. But they need a little bit of modernizing. Not the decor, the computer system! I went in, and couldnt order because their card reader was down, and I dont carry cash! My feelings are so hurt...
Known for their mini burgers (sliders).
Loves Greenes have been going there for 20years. Having said that the new cook needs training. We got 4 double burgers that had little chucks of meat that looks like it fell off another burger. Its poor service when it take 25 mins and 4 people at walk in get served before you. Told the waitress about burger n opened up gun she said its always like that. Number 1, no its not # 2 that is a poor response and lost her a tip. Sad to see hipsters and mileniels run this place down its a staple. The shake was good onion rings were good but came out 15 mins prior to our burger...not cool guys.
First time trying this place. The food were subpar. They put way too much onions in their burgers and got my order wrong. The onion rings was ok, nothing special. Their prices is ridiculous for the food they serve. $3+ for small onion rings & $2+ for their cheeseburgers. 7 cheeseburgers and onion rings for $20 is ridiculous when you can get much better tasting burgers and onion rings for less than $15 at Telway on John R & 11 Mile. Dont think ill be coming back here again.
Im going to put it plain and simple if you want a good burger going to Greens is probably in your interest. Hands down way better then other hamburger places in the area plus theyre even more affordable than them. Thats a double bonus win. Theyve been around for a long time for a reason why dont you head there and find out why.
Always fresh crinkle cut fries...and a lot of them! Hamburgers are made fresh. Small space to wait if you are carrying out, or you can wait in the car. Food always taste great.
Had a carry out and tipped 20% but just was no feeling the love. Not that I want it but I just saw 2 people give No Tip.
We are originally from Detroit . Whenever we come home for the holidays we stay at a hotel not far from this place. We end up eating here almost every other night. Its a greasy spoon and with delicious food. You wont be disappointed.
I used to go to the Greenes at the corner of Schaeffer and Seven Mile all the time when I was a kid, in the late 50s and mid-60s. So thrilled to find they had the place on Orchard Lake. Still just as special and totally delicious. Love the normal sized burgers, individually handmade, grilled on top of fresh onions! Yummy!
As a teen, it was the fun, and safe hang out. I have to say they are the best greasy burgers I have ever had. Now my grandchildren ask for Greenes. Its a Farmington land mark! Family from out of town, come in, they drops their bags, and the guys go get several bags of burger, and fries.
Super sliders! I grew up on these little gems and still love em. If youre adverse to grease, stay away!
For what Greenes is, its great. The food is always fresh. The place always appears clean. The service is always adequate. The hamburgers are tasty and the fries are salty and hot. The prices are great.
Just ok really. Went on an off peak time.Service was acceptableThe double is not a double, its just a bigger single. There is no way to establish value of getting a double burger.Price was higher than expected for what I received.
What can i say. they have saved my life .. after a night out with the boys.. we would head there to sober up. that ladys are great and fun to talk to .. menu is basic. and well has what you need ..should extend the breakfest hours. . my thoughts.
Greene’s is by far the best hamburger ever. My family has been going to Greene’s since it opened in Detroit. I highly suggest that you go to Greene’s Hamburgers in Farmington.
This place is so amazing. The onion rings and malts are the perfect addition to the delicious sliders.
Order two dozen and I know most of them there wasnt any meat just onion and some black stuff looks scrapings from The Griddle pretty gross would never go back and thats too bad cuz I love sliders
Everyone knows how good the burgers are here,but I ordered a bowl of chili on my last visit and was very surprised how good it was because nobody really talks about their chili. Give it a try!
Hair in my burger is unacceptable and says it all. Note: this was few months ago and I just passed by and remembered I owe the health-conscious public a review.Taste was average - typical greasy low end burger.
I had to go back and rewrite and update my review of this place since I won’t be returning. First time coming to this place was amazing second time I bring my sons dad the burgers were burnt and the doubles looked like singles and he discovered a long hair in his chili.Thanx for the not coming back cocktail Greens.
Always choose this place over McDonalds. Better everything. Great people, great food. Support local business!!!
Great restaurant ! Favorite burger only recommendation is make sure the jukebox works i want to play my motown when i come in.
The last time I was here was in the early 90s. The road is now 5 lanes instead of 2. The scenery along the road is no longer fields, theyve been commercialized into the same view you see everywhere else thats had urban sprawl come along. The only thing that didnt change was the sight of Greenes at the corner and the great burgers and fries they serve. The burgers were just like I remembered. Hot, covered in onions and cheese. I dont get up that way anymore but when I realized where we were gonna be, I had to take the family there. Ill be back the next time we get up there. Hopefully it wont be in another 20+ years.
Great place for your neighborhood greasy slider.
Greasy, run of the mill slider style burgers and crinkle fries. No different or better than you can get at many other places but not bad.
It is worth visiting just for the interior. I got veggie burgers and the veggie (slider) is just onions (and pickles maybe?) Why dont they call it an onion burger? It was really weird. I thought about it later and I wondered if I was the butt of a late night prank but I dont think so. The woman working warned me it was not an actual veggie burger but I thought maybe they knew what they were doing with just onions. Nope. Not at all. I must say they were awful tasting but I ate them because I was hungry.
Great atmosphere, our waitress was amazing. She is a literal wonderwoman taking orders and making them. She was quick to give us our orders and they were perfect. Total rockstar. I would come back for sure.
Place mustve called a beaver cuz dam.
This place. Man let me tell you about how good this is. Greenes sliders and coffee is an American institution. All you have to think about is with or without fried onions and whether or not you want one of those little boxes of cereal that you loved as a kid.
Loved this place for years but it has gone way downhill. They cant even produce an edible plate of French fries after two tries. Mostly because the uncaring, surly staff simply doesnt care and it shows. The people who work at Greenes seem to hate their jobs and every patron who walks in.
I lived less than a mile from the original White Hut Hamburgers in W. Springfield MA, so when my husband texted a photo of an identical building near his work I immediately said “ok, when are we going?” Food is also nearly identical (that is to say, delicious), the ambience is straight out of a history book and service was fast and friendly. Get the double if you’re used to modern burgers.
Yummiest burger for so cheap. I need to go back here soon. In the past it has been the perfect spot to hit for a late night snack or a post-concert meal.
Nobody acknowledged me. Fries were cold and a few even taste as if they were still sort of frozen. Burgers cold. I meant to go to bates but couldn’t remember the name at the time so I called Greene’s thinking it was the same place. Upon realizing I called The wrong place, instead of abandoning my order I decided to just drive to greene’s and pick up my order. I should Have abandoned it, not worth the money.
This maybe your average burger joint but Ive had plenty of good service here and I have to admit everyones pretty nice. One night I came in late at night by myself and there were three drunk guys sitting next to me and they started talking to me and making me feel extremely uncomfortable and I couldnt even finish my food. I then ask the waitress for a box and she then hands me the box saying Thank You and have a good night. I went to open the box and notice a note on the box saying that the bill was on them and have a good night. Afterwards I went out to my car and cried. It literally was the nicest random act of kindness that Ive ever had from someone that didnt even know me. It made me realize that there are still good people on this planet. Ive gone in plenty of times after and never seen her again but Id like to thank her in person. Im hoping she will read this and remember! Thank you for being so kind to a girl who has extreme social anxiety!
Great burgers.I am also a Bates fan.Both places are equally as good.Try it.They are worth it
Excellent sliders. They even separated the buns and patties/toppings for me so I could give them to a client so she could reheat them later.
Great burgers, theyre all warm and smashed, lol. Pretty fast carry-out, and a little expensive considering theyre burgers are really thin. They should have a burger combo, but they dont. Everything is a la carte. Happy eating!
Food was good. the servers werent welcoming though... got their money and that was it. 17 dollars plus a tip for 6 dollars and a fry.... would recommend but Motz in Detroit is better
Good sliders. Chili was a little unexpected.
Absolutely the worst slider place in the Tri-County area to use the word gross is the only way to describe what myself and sons were served it actually looked like somebody took some stuff off the griddle and smeared It On the Bun there was no meat we ordered two dozen to go and they were all like that I dont know what this place uses for meat but it was pretty nasty theres another word to describe it strongly recommend Anywhere But Here across the street is McDonalds much better
Great counter service and tasty sliders! Ill have to save room for a shake next time.
The greasy sliders from this filthy joint are a delight. You wont be able to get the smell of grilled onions off of your hands for awhile after eating them but, honestly, why would you want to? If you live in Farmington this is where you go for your slider fix, or to cheat on your diet -- and where your loyalty should lie.
Burgers are ok, however, I ordered double and only more onions not meat. Onion rings were totally burnt and not edible. Will not visit again.
Love it! Classic place for sliders. Take out waitresses always so nice. Wish it was closer to my home. Open one at Square Lake & Woodward.
A token of suburban life, the slider joint. Best place to go after sledding, the bar, church, or just for lunch. The classic Americana diner style counter really makes you feel like youre at home, and the smell of the fries will have you drooling from your car across the street.Dont pass up this hidden gem of hometown life
Love thier burgers they are more expensive than bates or brays . Still a good place to get sliders . staff is friendly
Been going here my whole life and I love the sliders. Little bites of heaven. The onion rings are crispy and to die for too!
Absolutely hands down the best slider joint around. Whether it is breakfast, or a burger, you will likely not be disappointed!
Nice tasting Burgers. Prices too High for such a small burger. Fries ok. Atmosphere and attitudes come off a bit racist and rude, but its a Landmark Location. Maybe that explains the smell of Go around back and place your order in the air. Things that make you go...Hmmm! I know its not just me.
For the third time in a row coming here. I had shotty service and food. Been coming here since I was a kid. Burgers got smaller and tasting worse as time goes on. Customer service is the absolute worst now. ILL NEVER SPEND ANOTHER PENNY HERE.
Nothing like a good old fashion perfectly made burger. Great service. Great food. Im going back tomorrow.
Ive been to Greenes Hamburgers. I gotta say one Ive best diners I have encountered. The food is beyond amazing and wonderful. Plus, the staff is friendly.Thank u
Burgers are great. Unique, old school, environment includes a jukebox. Not as happy with the fries, but this is an individual preference thing.
They are always on point . Yummy grilled onions cheese . The morning lady was kinda rude . Its ok Im a nite customer anyway
This place reminds me of the Anthony Bourdain episode when he ate chili mac in Cleveland and called it what it is. Unless you grew up eating this food, dont bother eating here. If you like this type of burger it is great. But where some regional foods are worth the experience, I would take a pass.
Amazing!!! Gotta stop hungry or not and grab burgers!!! Never ever drive past.. We work midnights so its nice at 4am love it.. Girls are friendly and fast
I havent been to greens in at least 35 years. They are still great burgers, Still taste the same.
Vintage greasy spoon diner with limited menu of sliders, grilled cheese, fries, onion rings, breakfast--all done well. Small location, with counter seating. Loved by locals. Free parking.
Ive been going to Greenes since a single burger was 20 cents. Thats over 50 years and the only thing that has changed are the prices. Still great burgers and fast service. There used to be three locations; this is the only one left.
Wonderful little gem of a slider shop, uncompromising in what it is, but still great. Cheeseburgers, fries, and a coke...how can you go wrong when you have a craving for something nasty and bad for the body, but nourishing to the soul.
Simple, classic Greenes. You know what to expect. Sliders without all the frill. The staff seem to be straight shooter ladies. Get in, eat, get out. Works for me!
I don’t give a damn about the taste, these people are RUDE! Honestly Bates’s Burgers taste way better and has AMAZING customer service. That was my first and absolute last time visiting! Don’t waste your money🤢
I absolutely loved it!!! What a great way to end a part of this pandemic and be able to go into a restaurant and eat!!! Greens was the place to do that
Food tasted great. Problem was that we called multiple times with no answer at 10pm on a Monday, only to have the staff reveal (while eating at the counter) that they dont pick up the phone while the owner isnt there. Must be too inconvenient for them to do their job. Management might want to check into this, but hey what do I know
You either like it or you dont. Slider hamburgers and fries. Basis for White Castles or Krystal restaurants. This is fast food before fast food was popular. Love it !!!
If I could rate this -5stars i would it’s not even a one star. Very rude staff and very unsanitary. The old hag is wearing one glove instead of two. She’s using the hand with the glove to grab raw meat, vegetables, spatula, her Drink, and everything else. Then she uses the left hand (without a glove on) and grabs the bread, and Cheese!! So I go on to tell them and they tell me then don’t eat here and don’t come back! I told them I don’t eat here and I won’t nor will I come back and I wil be reporting the poor sickly conditions there. Everyone that eats there is consuming contaminated food I can see the blood on her cup when she drank from it🤢
Great place for a quick lunch. Single, double, or triple sliders. Crinkle fries. Recommend two triples if youre a big eater.
Lol. Big chick is definitely rude as hell. Had to tell her my order 3 times cause she was too focused on getting her next meth hit, and still got it wrong. After I told her that it was wrong, but it was ok Ill eat them anyway, she rolled her eyes at me.. crazy.. kids dont do meth, youll end up working here and super bitter about it.
Always a great, quick bite. Service is wonderful and staff always ensures your food is hot and delivered to you fresh. Extremely CLEAN establishment!
A friend bought me dinner at Greens for takeout in Nov. 2017. The most greasy hamburger I have saw. You could not pull me into that place again. I guess some people like grease and others dont

2022-04-08We were just driving by on a road trip and stopped here for lunch. Its an affordable local fast food sort of restaurant. You order at the counter and there is minimal seating but we were able to find 3 seats together. There was also a separate part of the building for takeout, with a separate entrance. We shared burgers, chicken tenders, fries and onion rings, it wasnt gourmet but felt more like real food instead of the super processed stuff at the big chain fast food restaurants. It felt like a local favorite.

2022-03-27First time in over 25 years they got my order wrong! That’s the all time record. I ordered mustard, onions and pickles and no ketchup, the carry out gal even said no ketchup and I said no ketchup. I got ketchup, no mustard. Pretty good record but I’m going to let them know I couldn’t eat them. Still my all time favorite slider restaurant!! Love you gals!

2022-07-20Absolute BEST sliders around. Ive been going here my whole life and there is no one who does burgers better than Greenes! My family has been eating here since it opened in the 1950s. Amazing food, wonderful staff and great prices. When I moved out of town, the first thing I did when I came home was go to get my greasy Greenes! 🍔🍟😊💖💖💖

2022-04-1610 pm snack on a Wednesday night. Pretty tasty burger grilled with onions with the regular toppings added, including pickles. Crinkle cut fries were fresh. Walk up window open, along with some counter stools inside. Burgers outshine the chicken strips.

2022-03-28Good little slider place. Other than sliders only thing Ive ever eaten were Onion Rings and Chicken Tenders. Both were delicious. Convieneant pick up window for carry outs. Also indoor seating.

2022-07-01Some of the better (greasier) sliders you can get in town. Great competition to hunter house. These burgers (in comparison to HH) seemed to have a better meat/bread ratio, a bit more flavor and better grilled onions/pickles. Definitely get your buns toasted. Onion rings were also better than HH, a lighter, maybe cheaper batter, but in all the right greasy, clog your arteries kinda ways. Not a single real complaint other than each meal is a steady murder of your arteries.

2022-07-09Greens hamburger is a unique hamburger its like a slider with a slider with onions and you have a grill yes Ive created with the Burger been good for about 20 years And the waitresses there and cook are very nice

2022-01-18Ok food. I think White Castle is tastier and over all cheaper. The amount of meat in my sliders was paper thin and all I tasted was onions.Bland tasting fries out of brown bag completed the meal. Definitely not worth coming back. I experienced the local flare, and it was nothing special.
