Alpine Drive Inn Reviews | Burney Restaurants & Bars

We took a break from camping in Lassen to visit Burney Falls and Lake Britton. Â On the way back we stopped at Safeway for supplies and here for lunch. Â Outstanding bacon cheeseburgers, they tasted homemade with thick bacon. Â I will stop here again. Â It was clean inside. Â Fries and shakes were good also.

I had the most amazing pound and half triple patty burger here that I have ever had in my life. The pattys were so juicy, cook just right, and smothered in all the fix'ns. There was a long wait, but it was worth it!

I love this place! I've eaten here 4 times and it really is a very spot place for classic drive-in eats. My last visit found me ordering a double cheeseburger, onion rings and a raspberry shake - go ahead, call me fat.

I forgot to ask for the burger without mayo, since I'm not a fan of that condiment, but it was applied judiciously so not a biggie. The patties are good-sized and cooked just about medium and very tasty! Onion rings were also good and not excessively greasy. They gave me some ranch dressing for the dipping at no extra charge. The shake was excellent!

The people were sweet as can be, the food is great, what's not to like?

This place ranks four stars just on the merits of it being a family-owned burger joint on Highway 299 that makes better burgers and milkshakes, with more variety, than than that perennial favorite of the fast-food-chain zombies, In-N-Out. Â Alpine's staff and owners are exceptionally friendly, too.

The fifth star is for a couple of other reasons:

1. Â I ran a red light about a block from here with a CHP right on my ass, and he stopped for the light and didn't chase me. Â I pulled into Alpine thinking he might follow me in, but he cruised right on past. Â I thought I was off the hook (except for the Karmic payback that's obviously still coming my way for running the light), but 15 minutes later as I'm eating my burger the same CHP pulls into Alpine's lot and parks next to me. Â I'm thinking he recognizes my rig and is going to bring out the ticket book as soon as I walk back to it and unlock the door, thus revealing myself as the guilty party. Â But no. Â As I drive off, he's just sitting there waiting for his lunch, fiddling with his smart phone. Â Dude just wanted his Alpine Burger.

2. Â While I'm waiting for my food outside, a glum-looking guy is sitting by himself the next table over. Â The owner calls out, "Bitter party of one. Â Your food is ready. Â Bitter party of one." Mr. Lonely laughs. Â Teacher Lady laughs. Â I laugh. Â Mr. Lonely says, "At least I'm not with Donner Party of 50." Â We all laugh again.

Good times.

I ate here after my Friend told me how good it was and I wasn't disappointed at all. I had the Logger Burger and i couldn't eat it all. Great owners and great food. Do yourself a favor and eat here. Don't just get an ice cream and rate it. EAT! it's good you'll be glad you did!

The Alpine has new owners that have cleaned the place up a lot. By far the best food in Burney and at amazing prices. A few hints; the portions are huge and you can generally ask the cook for any specifics you want.
