West Point Lounge

I have never had anything less than an excellent burger here. Also good is their cod dinner or sandwich. Always consistent, always good.

Absolutely the best hamburger in the Jackson area. The fish dinners are also excellent.

This is a local joint that serves up good burgers. We tried the mac & cheese bites, very good. The patty melt and the mushroom/​Swiss burger were good as well. Service was very good! She was very attentive. If you live in Jackson and haven’t stopped by give it a try.

Best burgers in Jackson! I have to come here every time I come back in town. I have been coming to this place since I was a child. Cheryl is the best waitress too!

A pretty awesome little establishment. There are two things I really dig about this place: Dark Michigan beer and really delicious burgers. The burgers are fresh and cooked to order. They remind me a little bit of In and Out on the left coast. I recommend the burgers and have tried nothing else. These burgers alone are the reason for a strong 4 star Unilocal!rating;)
PS: service has been pretty good in the times I’ve been.

When I was talking with a friend, I told him I was looking for the best burger in Jackson, MI. The 3 main options given to me were West Point Lounge, Schlenker’s, and Tracy’s Tavern.
Having tried all 3, I think as far as the meat goes West Point Wins. I had the Smokin’ Burger, and it was a Tummy Bomb. The fresh jalepeno’s got me later in the day. However, this burger has fresh hand formed meat, and was cooked to order.
While Schlenkers may be a local favorite, it’s okay… and more of a childhood memory. Tracy’s was nice too. But as far as real meat, thick and juicy… fresh toppings piled high and thick… My 5 Stars will go to WPL!

Not a bad local joint. Menu has a lot of interesting choices and the food is pretty good. Staff is always friendly. Drinks are good too.

awesome burgers! the smoke’n burger is yummo!

It’s supposed to be the friendly neighborhood sort of place, but friendly places don’t try to bleed their customers on drinks. Ordered a double vodka/​coke and was charged $ 11, and it was still served in a normal sized rocks glass. When we said that we could go to the most expensive place in town and pay less for a bigger drink with better vodka, the server started arguing about how it’s totally appropriate to charge that much for a «double» even if its served in a glass that quite obviously couldn’t hold the size of drink we ordered. She also said that the majority of their clientele are «old timers», so maybe they saw a table of young proffessionals and decided to up the prices a bit. Whatever the reason, this supposedly neighborhood place serves the most expensive mixed drinks in town and then blatantly short changes you on actual volume.

One of the best burgers in Jackson. I have never been disappointed with my food here.

Great atmosphere, good service, nice home town bar. Been going there for 30 years and LOVE the food!

A Jackson classic. Most people debate whether this place or Schlenkers has the best burger in Jackson. It’s a fairly small place with a limited menu and full bar. Mostly a local crowd. Food is decent, mostly deep fried stuff. If I go there it is usually for the burger although they have daily specials that are alright. It is not a fancy place at all but has been remodled a little bit. It is very dimly lit.

A Jackson landmark in burgers, the West Point is easy to get to. The burger is difinitely the meal to order. Try «the biggie burger» to enjoy a little extra of the classic and top it off with a «biggie» beer. Over good food at a great price.

Great burgers — probably the second best in Jackson after Schlenker’s. I’m also a fan of the chicken bites. Prices can’t be beat.

Dimly lit, hole in the wall, kind of place with AWESOME burgers. I think they even won Best Burger in Town one year. Now that Michigan is smoke free, you won’t get a side of second hand smoke with your meal, making it even more tasty.
They offer more than, cheese or no cheese.
Their menu is complete with numerous different kinds of burgers or you can create your own. The platter comes with crinkle fries and a side of coleslaw or cottage cheese.
The pop comes in a can with a glass of ice so you have your choice of Pepsi or Coke — no free refills.
