Comet Burgers!

Comet Burgers are probably the best burgers in downtown Royal Oak. . . I would even go as far as to say they are some of the best in the local area and add the cool atmosphere and it's a dining experience!

True sliders, along with fries and deep fried mushrooms. For my daughter's birthday I took her and her friend for lunch. Can you tell they really like it there? A smiley face made out of ketchup says it all. The burgers have a little bit of that griddle grease which makes them extra special and they are pretty reasonable. Kid's meals (one slider and fries) come with a scoop of ice cream.

I opt for a grilled cheese and instead of fries go for some battered mushrooms.  Like any good 50's style diner (and we eat counterside for the authentic feel) there are fountain options. You can get a Jones bottle soda, regular soda in a red plastic cup, or my personal favorite, flavored Coke. Flavored Coke? Yes! I always choose chocolate but there is vanilla and cherry too. The chocolate Coke is is extra fizzy and it's just a wonderful treat. Refills are free.

It's a little too cold to eat outside but I am looking forward to summer when we can eat at the picnic tables and people watch at the same time. Inside is pretty cool too with vintage album covers and some assorted memorabilia. . . look for the Kid Rock autograph - he's a fan of Comet Burgers too!
