Knockabout Burgers

The special here really jumped out at me, so I had to give it a try. It was a Curry Tempura Fried Chicken Sandwich. Overall, I'd say it was good, but I think I was hoping for more curry and it was mostly sweet chili sauce. The piece of chicken I got also was a bit grisly, but that happens sometimes. There were a lot of other things on the menu that I wanted to try, so I'd love to go back.

Knockabout burger is a vendor within the Avanti Denver food hall. Avanti is a very nice space but can get quite crowded during peak hours. I placed my order online and the food was ready very quickly. I got the goat cheese and prosciutto burger with parmesan garlic fries. Both the burger and fries were excellent! The burger's flavor profile was balanced perfectly. I do wish there were a couple more burger options, especially something with spice. However, I highly recommend this spot for a quality burger if you're in the LoHi area.

This place is inside the avanti on the second floor. The food takes a while to cook. This is also the kind of place that stabs your burger with a tooth pick and charges 20 dollars including the fries and shake... it's blasphemy in my opinion.The service is fair for what this place is. It's a food stall in a huge cafeteria you just get your own food and put your own dishes away. Also I'm not sure what the point of tipping at any of the food vendors in the avanti is when their custodial staff who are actually out and about cleaning are most likely not associated with each individual vendor. The service is not dissimilar from McDonald's/ Burger King. You order your food, you pay, you wait for your order to be called, you sit down and eat, you toss your trash and out the tray away, and then the custodian disinfects where you were just sitting.Now to the food. It's a standard burger with house sauce. The burger isn't too big and it's not too filling. The house sauce is also about the same as Freddy's fry sauce. The fries are also not much to write home about, crispy and salty, maybe a bit better than Burger King fries. The real champion of the meal was the butter butter milk shake, it's exactly what you expect it to taste like. It's a really good milk shake but not good enough to save the meal. After this I also went to the pizza place downstairs to eat a pizza to fill me up and I still was not full. For ambiance we gotta just review the avanti. We happened to go on trivia night and it was packed but no one was participating in it. It feels like a bad high school cafeteria, not enough seating, broken furniture, odd dining table choices, awkward seating positions when available, dimly lit, "open air" second floor space is cramped and crowded. Getting a beer though is not hard here. I understand that this place is a food eatery that is set around socialization while dining but it does a very poor job at it. Also parking in this area is terrible and Denver has awful public transit, getting here is painful and quite annoying.

I have been here a couple times now and both times my burgers were fantastic. I have gotten the breakfast burger, the bacon cheeseburger (make it a double), and the latest one the burger of the month. This one had cheese curds and a butter bacon marinara on it. OMG!! I highly recommend upgrading your fries to the garlic Parm for an extra 75 cents. And get the Knockabout sauce for dipping. They also have a rotating shake flavor. They do have other options besides burgers including chicken, and vegetarian options and gluten free buns! Definitely check them out in the upstairs area of Avanti.

Well we'll. In my last post I ranted about the terrible food. Management reached out to me via email and blamed Uber Eats for Knockabout Burgers sending out DRY, burgers with no cheese and 3ish French fry's! Who that? Knockabout Burgers does..Cringe

Environment!! This whole place is fantastic. Knockabout is one of a few restaurants in a commons area, in a fun and interesting part of Denver. Great views and atmosphere. Good beer selection. And the burgers at Knockabout were outstanding - perfectly cooked, piled high with fixins, and so flavorful.

Ordered Colorado hot chicken sandwich that came with a side of fries. The sandwich was great, although not super spicy. Fries were done perfectly!

I realized that I can't invite friends to Avanti F&B for "BRUNCH" anymore because there's not really any brunch-sounding food options. That is, except for the Brunch Burger at Knockabout Burgers! It's located right when you walk upstairs (across from the bar) and they have a decent menu selection, accommodating more dietary restrictions than most burger joints I've seen.The one time I ate here, I got some standard cheeseburger with hatch chiles, but the whole thing tasted like grease. I was confused by the lack of flavor. The garlic parmesan fries were good, though. I'd be willing to try this place one more time. How could I not when they use ingredients like fried prosciutto, black truffle oil, and kimchi slaw? Plus there's shakes that involve peanut butter!While I didn't enjoy my burger (and they actually take a LONG time to prepare) they've been accommodating to people who have special requests, which I appreciate. Not much else to review since the seating and drink situation is on the Avanti side. All that is fantastic. Definitely after some happy hour or evening beers, I could see myself craving a burger, so we'll see how that shakes out next time!

Don't even bother coming here. Bad customer service and bad food. Took a long time to get my order too. Deff go somewhere else

Holy cow that's a pretty good burger. I got a special sale deal and it was appropriately priced for the amount of food. Full price looked kinda crazy. Wish there was a littttttle more burger but otherwise taste and freshness is amazing. Really enjoyed the garlic parm fries too, they don't half-ass anything here!
