About Bun Burger Kitchen
Moving into their new location in 2023, Bun Burger Kitchen on River Avenue in Lakewood offers a take on fast-casual dining, led by a chef with a fine-dining background.
The foundation is simple: burgers ground fresh daily, grilled to order, and paired with a wide variety of toppings. Diners can build their own or choose from a selection of house options. But the appeal goes past just burgers. Bun’s menu includes pulled brisket egg rolls, pastrami sandwiches, grilled steak plates, schnitzel, and chicken tenders—each prepared with the same level of consistency and detail.
The restaurant’s layout is clean and efficient. Self-order kiosks and QR code menus keep things moving during busy hours, but the energy inside remains friendly and relaxed. The space is bright and playful, anchored by fun yellow decor that adds personality without being over the top. Bun accommodates solo diners grabbing a quick bite, families with kids, and groups placing large orders for pickup or catering.
Adding to the experience is Bun’s unlimited sauces bar, offering a rotating variety of house-made sauces that let guests customize every bite. Whether you’re into smoky, spicy, tangy, or sweet, you can experiment without committing to just one flavor. For private events, the restaurant also features a fully enclosed room that can be reserved for birthdays, meetings, or casual group gatherings—offering a more personal setting without leaving the Bun atmosphere behind.
The food is plated with care even when boxed for takeout. The Brooklyn Burger, Buffalo Chicken Sandwich, and honey garlic poppers are some of the most frequently mentioned favorites. Sides like crisp steak fries and onion rings are front and center—they’re fried fresh and properly seasoned.
Bun also offers a robust catering menu, featuring burger and sandwich platters, sliders, baby chicken, and build-your-own nacho trays. These are popular for events, and regular customers often rely on them for gatherings at home or work.
Unlike places that aim for novelty, Bun sticks to what it does well. The food is dependable, the service is fast, and the overall experience is practical without feeling generic. That consistency is what keeps people coming back.
