Amazing burgers, service, and location! If you don't like sandwhich spread (read Miracle Whip), ask for no mayo on your burger! A tip I will remember for next time :)Also, it tastes like the ranch is made with it as well. :)

I am not from here and so this was my first time eating here. HUGE burgers and a LOT of fries!! I love that they have all the sauces out in the dining area so you can get your own. They also have a BBQ ranch sauce that is pretty good. the burgers are very good. The pickles are crisp, tomatoes are ripe, onions are perfect... It all makes for a great burger!! They keep it clean and it's a nice atmosphere to eat in. Doesn't feel like a "normal" fast food place, feels more comfortable to me.

Honestly the best grilled cheese sandwich around. I've loved them since I was little and they're still just as good now as they were then! Every time I come visit home, I have to stop by and get one! My family loves the burgers and the fries and milkshakes are delicious too!

Sent my fiance for food. he ordered, they asked him to wait outside til his number was called, 40 minutes go by, People who came after him were leaving with food, So he goes inside to see what's going on. They didnt even know what he ordered, saying they didnt have it. Say they must have given it to someone else, he asks for a refund and they say they dont give refunds, (even though it was they're fault) probably wont be going there again! Food is good, customer service not so much. Seems like they have TONS of rude employees working there.

If you want the best hamburgers in Yakima I advise you to go to Miner's . I drove from Portland, Oregon to Yakima, Washington to try this legendary hamburger. I spoke with David Miner who is the grandson and current owner of this fine establishment about my journey. He personally went back to the grill and made me the "Big Miner Burger " with a side of their onion rings. It was one of the best hamburgers I've had in quite some time. Please make the stop to Miner's. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Ask for David Miner if he's available to talk he'll give you the complete history on the drive in which is actually really interesting.

Cool spot in Yakima with a shady little outdoor area with picnic tables to accommodate social distancing and takeout only rules of Phase 2.2.Service was super fast and they were BUSY the night we were there. My kids ordered lettuce wrapped burgers and curly fries. I ordered the Chef salad with chicken. My only issue was the chicken was breaded. I'm pretty sure that's my fault because I didn't look super closely at the picture they have of the salad on the wall.

Greatly disappointed. First time here, passing thru Yakima. Read that the food was good and servings large. Ordered the lettuce wrapped burger ( a menu item), waiter didn't know what it was. Burger was thin and well done (shoe leather). Asked for root beer, no ice. It came with ice (yes, they replaced it). Fries were tepid and spongy, as if they'd been cooked a while ago and sat under a heat light.

The Burgers are gigantic! I didn't expect the burgers to be that good because of the size but they were pretty good! Fries were good and so where the shakes. They had so many flavors to choose from. Service is pretty fast as well.

Miner's is the best place to get a fresh tasty burger. In n out has a similar style of classic burger. And 1 burger is so big I normally eat it in two sittings or share with my wife. Inside they have some neat Native American heritage.

Service here just keep going down, burgers are not even close to even good, McDonald’s even have better burgers, shame to say, 03/10/2020I ordered veggie burger, there are two options, the fresh vegetable one or the patty, I specifically ordered the “veggie patty” and they gave me the fresh vegetable burger. I didn’t even ordered a lot i don’t understand why the person forgot what I ordered.( by the way, that person is very sloppy, lazy, etc. at work, it’s an ordinary burger place, you don’t expect top service, but you are working, so be on top of your game Mr!) you are getting paid!I have to drive back 30 minutes just to get the RIGHT FOOD I ORDERED!!Not the first mistake I got when visiting this place.Home of the big miner? Very ordinary to the taste, nothing special, I don’t recommend, but if you don’t care about quality of food and service go ahead and enjoy,The banana splits are good though, and I love it. points to that.

Love this place! Miner’s is a family run establishment and fixture in the Yakima Valley. We call them family. They have a rich history with the Yakama Nation people offering glimpses of history that no other eatery offers. Be prepared for great food - the size is shareable. However, I have been known to eat the entire burger when I treat myself when visiting the Valley. We also love the shrimp salad!

Miner's is a tradition. One simply does not drive past Yakima without stopping by. That said, the burgers are never quite as good as I build them up in my head, and it's pretty expensive. Fries (and fry sauce) are good, and the shakes are fantastic. Nothing like finding actual peanut butter globs in your PB/hot fudge shake!

I drove all the way from Portland to re-live a great burger experience from 10 years ago. I can say it was almost exactly as I remembered.Big portions for sure. A regular fry was enough for three people. The Big Miner, as big and as tasty as I remember.It's a good spot. It's kind of like the Cheers of Yakima. I saw lots of patrons who knew each other's names.If you're in the area, it's worth a try, and better than any of the chain places around it to be sure.

Did not know what to expect! Hamburgers and fries (small order) are twice the size of their competition, but the flavor is only a little above average. I would have been happier if I had shared. The fry sauce tastes more like plain mayo than having a touch of spicy flavor. Super busy, but staff didn't make an attempt to clean tables before the next guests sat down. Watch out - team buses stop for a meal, too.

It's okay, not outstanding food, but the burgers are big and that's why my friend likes to go there. It cost $28.07 for 2 people to get 1 burger, 1 fry and 2 milkshakes! Little expensive and takes a long time to get your food but he loves it.

First off, strange drive through. You order from the left which could be tricky for many reasons, thankfully there was two of us, so not too much trouble.Big menu, lots of different sandwiches and burgers. A little pricey, all things considered for “fast food” $7 for. Burger no fries. But really, worth the money. I have a BIG appetite and was sated by the miner burger.

Love miner’s! They are doing a good job dealing with covid. Indoor seating unavailable. Picnic tables outside or take-away. Burgers are huge! Onion rings and tater tots are great. Their chix basket is good as well. Fries are decent but good for onion rings or the tots.

Always great food and LARGE portions, hence the price. All items I have ordered are delicious. I do share the sides with others because it's too much food for one person. It's quite busy, so it does take a little bit to get your food.

We ordered 2 buffalo subs, a banana split and onion rings. Came out to about 40$.The ice cream was good but it’s hard to mess that up. The sandwiches weren’t bad but they weren’t really good either. They put blue cheese on our sandwich which caught us off guard and was out fault for not asking, wasn’t a fan of it. The sandwich without the blue cheese is still average. The onion rings also pretty basic, comparable to Burger King onion rings but these cost more. So not too bad overall but I don’t think I’d come back. Except maybe for ice cream.

This is a good historic burger joint that you must experience at least once. The burgers are huge and the servings of fries is huge. I really wanted to give this place 5 stars, but they only carry Pepsi products. I didn't know people still drank Pepsi, maybe I'm just too particular to Coke...
