I find chomp to have super salty burgers and just overall not great. I've given it a few chances and honestly I'd rather spend way less money by going to Harry's and actually enjoying my food

Harry’s is much better.

I had a couple bites of their deep fried Mac and cheese balls a few weeks ago. The sauce is supposed to be "Cacio e Pepe" but it was like warm Peppercorn Ranch salad dressing

I often find the best burgers are served in places that don't spend a lot on the decor

While Wendy's and Burger King still offering $5 combo deals.

Bartender at Chomp went down the whole beer list in agonizing detail when taking our drink order and then audibly groaned when I ordered a 'gansett.

too-tall burgers are a sure sign of a mediocre chef

Chomp on Ives did pay my friend to have hand painted signs of old Ives street businesses done, which was a nice touch, but I agree the prices are wild and Ives street needed more hometown spots instead of hipster appeal.

All I want to talk about is what is up with that ketchup?

It's awful.

Chomp has a good ketchup but their burgers, man.. they're a mess
HotConcrete t1_j41mnhc wrote
I’m confused by this. I just checked their website and their burgers are 15-18 bucks and come with fries or greens. I don’t have a dog in this fight but that seems pretty standard for a sit down place.

Mmm burgers… I miss Luxe

Love Chomp. Not ashamed to call it my favorite restaurant in the city. Delicious sandwiches and burgers, and incredible wings. Yes it's a little pricey but honestly what isn't these days.
PawtucketPatriot t1_j41qm0d wrote
Luxe when they first opened was amazing. However, the last couple of times before they closed, the place was filthy and the food was garbage.
DazeKaze t1_j41rsia wrote
I just went on their menu and their house burger comes with bacon, cheese, special sauce & fries for $15 dollars.
It's 2023 and we're still making fun of "hipster burgers". Let me guess you're also mad about "millennials"?

I had their house burger a few weeks ago and it was sooo good! For $15, I’m planning on going back. (Ives st.)

Also, their house burger is $15 WITH fries. Maybe not a bargain but not “$22.50 without a side”

$5 biggie bag is good enough for me!

If you want a good burger try Craft in the bucket. You will love it!
Hdale803 t1_j426omm wrote
I love those signs!
PipeLayer2016 t1_j4289as wrote
Craft burgers and brew is ligit. Now that Bun Fun has closed, Craft is my favorite burger joint. Their brunch is great too. The mimosas and bloody Marys are served out of pitchers!
PipeLayer2016 t1_j428i05 wrote
Try craft burgers and brew in Pawtucket. Best burger I have had in a while

Craft Burger and Beer in Pawtucket has Awesome burgers and food priced reasonably

Came here to bump craft too. Place rules
dgroach27 t1_j42ag92 wrote
Hell yeah. I love some nicer beer every now and then but with a burger you can't go wrong with a 'gansett.
Does it bother you too that the brewery doesn't have regular 'gansett?
mottison t1_j42au78 wrote
I also appreciate the they kept the Eagle Mart sign up! That was a nice touch.
mottison t1_j42b18f wrote
Oof, this got me good. I will say though, Chomp's veggie burger is LEGIT. Everything else is fine. Go to craft burgers and beers instead.

f1rehead t1_j42d830 wrote
It does, but it's because the law says they can only serve beers they make onsite and they don't make the lager at the brewery.
phill0406 t1_j42dklu wrote
Its because the lager is brewed in Rochester NY. The beer you drink at the brewery is made there.
dgroach27 t1_j42jz3q wrote
Ah gotcha!

Agreed 👍Harry’s has the best smash burgers in the city

Craft beer snots are insufferable, fancy alcoholic dicks
GoxBoxSocks t1_j42zjmq wrote
In all honesty I agree. Their beer list is pretty well curated I just prefer simple lagers. It was just a funny moment.
Also if I'm spending +$8 on a bev, it's going to be wine or a cocktail.

I live for the 5 dollar biggie bag tbh
Tortankum t1_j432orp wrote
Anyone that orders a gansett not for the express purpose of getting drunk on the cheap is a psycho in my books.

8 dollars will get you two buck chuck wine or a high class beer. I always found it weird the people that think wine in all forms is better than beer.

Low-Medical t1_j452d68 wrote
I mean, why have 'Gansett on the menu if you're going to act appalled when someone orders it? Just take it off the menu and do craft beer only.
Low-Medical t1_j452mgm wrote
Do they make their own? Ketchup is one of those interesting food products where the "artisanal" version is actually inferior to standard Heinz or whatever
syreonthemoon t1_j459oej wrote
If you’re getting Burgers at Chomp you’re doing it wrong! It’s all about the Chicken Sandwiches 🔥.
Indy_420 t1_j45k66k wrote
I go to chomp a lot. there "home made" ketchup is terrible. I always ask for real ketchup and the waiters or waitresses always chuckle in agreement how no one likes it. but there ranch on the other hand is amazing.

So, my house?
degggendorf t1_j46776s wrote
But that's only because they went for the easier taproom license, rather than the harder/expensiver full bar license, right? Or is it actually impossible to serve both brewed and bought drinks in the same location?

I've never tried them but I'm open to it! Thanks for the insight ;-)
mdurg68 t1_j477w8g wrote
Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll have to check them out.
StonksGuy3000 t1_j47rprt wrote
I think it’s nice to offer a cheaper option for people, but it deserves at least a sarcastic groan when someone is considering the full list and then opts for a ‘Gansett

They should put it in a separate section of the menu, then. Have a main drink section titled "Craft Beer Selections", and then another section titled "Fine, Here's Some Swill for the Unwashed Masses" with Narragansett underneath
StonksGuy3000 t1_j48rsfu wrote
I’m fine with this proposal. Let’s pitch it to Chomp
Mountain_Bill5743 t1_j48xoku wrote
Yeah I had it a long time ago and I can't recall what was wrong with it (like cane sugar or vinegary or what) but it was intense and pungent.
A year later I can't remember the burgers, but I remember the terrible ketchup and it really encourages me to go elsewhere.
JuciestDingleBerry OP t1_j49ww00 wrote
I'm a millennial, I think millennials and Gen z are great. It was a light hearted joke but mostly I feel their quality doesn't justify their price and they are in general more expensive than other burger joints. Sorry I hit a nerve.
MrRigby632 t1_j416p1f wrote
McDs and 5 Guys are better than that place. The original in Warren was over priced 10 years ago when it opened. Gotta say the rustic-industrial look is getting sooo played out.
