Hippie Burger
Hippie Burger
Every town has that one restaurant people can't stop talking about.
In Maysville, that place is Hippie Burger.
Located in the heart of downtown's Entertainment District, Hippie Burger has quickly become one of the city's favorite dining destinations. Known for creative burgers, generous portions, live music, and a fun, laid-back atmosphere, it's the kind of place visitors discover once and make a point to return to.
From the colorful mural outside to the inventive menu inside, Hippie Burger offers an experience that feels uniquely Maysville.
For guests staying at Moon River Bed and Breakfast, it's one of our favorite recommendations for a casual lunch, relaxed dinner, or a fun evening downtown.
The Burgers That Built the Reputation
At its core, Hippie Burger is about burgers done right.
The menu is intentionally focused, allowing the kitchen to concentrate on quality rather than quantity. Fresh ingredients, toasted buns, house-made sauces, and carefully crafted flavor combinations make each burger memorable.
The Hippie Burger
The restaurant's signature burger features fresh beef, lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickles, and the house-made Hippie Sauce on a toasted brioche bun.
Simple, satisfying, and packed with flavor, it's the perfect introduction to what Hippie Burger does best.
The Cheech and Chong
A customer favorite, the Cheech and Chong combines crispy bacon, pepper jack cheese, bacon aioli, and sweet tomato jam.
The balance of smoky, spicy, and slightly sweet flavors has made this one of the most talked-about items on the menu.
The Goat Burger
For guests looking for something different, the Goat Burger pairs creamy goat cheese with grilled onions, fresh greens, and tomato.
It may sound unexpected, but it has developed a loyal following among regular visitors.
More Than Just Burgers
While the burgers get most of the attention, there is plenty more worth exploring.
One standout sandwich is the Jamaican Gold, featuring sliced pork tenderloin topped with bacon, fresh vegetables, and jerk mayonnaise on toasted sourdough bread. The bold flavor combination has earned praise from countless guests.
Other menu favorites include:
House-made Chicken Salad Sandwich
West Side Club
Seasonal specialty chicken sandwiches
Beer Cheese Fries
Onion Rings
Pretzels with Beer Cheese
House desserts and Hippie Sweets
The Beer Cheese Fries deserve special mention. They have become one of the restaurant's most popular side dishes and pair perfectly with almost anything on the menu.
Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-friendly options are also available, making Hippie Burger a welcoming choice for groups with different dietary preferences.
Live Music, Local Art, and a Great Atmosphere
The food may bring people in, but the atmosphere often keeps them around a little longer.
The restaurant's colorful exterior mural has become one of downtown Maysville's most recognizable pieces of public art. Inside, guests find a lively but comfortable space filled with good music, friendly conversation, and an unmistakable sense of community.
Outdoor seating is available during warmer months, making it a great place to enjoy downtown's atmosphere.
Live music performances are regularly featured on Friday evenings, showcasing local musicians and creating a fun environment for both residents and visitors. Checking the restaurant's social media before your visit is a great way to see what events are happening during your stay.
