Gordon's Stop Light Drive In

This places’ burgers are the best. I had the “Double Jumbo” burger and it's delicious. The coleslaw and BBQ sauce made the Burger. I paired the burger with a Vanilla milkshake. The service was quick and good. Highly recommend this place. Will visit again.

We love Gordon's! The best burgers in town.
Burgers are delicious, well assembled, filling, and reasonably priced. Even on a busy weekend night, they do a great job getting your food out as fast as they can. Even if we had to wait a long time, it'd definitely be worth it.
If you haven't been here before though, make sure to bring CASH, they don't take any other form of payment.

This place is great! I have been here many times, and they always make it to order. I LOVE the onion rings - they aren't overly greasy or slimy, and they are so crunchy! I like to get the coney island on occasion and the slaw they use is so fresh! Keep in mind they are cash only! Definitely stop in if you find yourself in Festus/crystal city!

One of the best smashed burger joints. It's a classic. They keep it simple and have that old classic feeling with keeping it a tiny diner with amazing food. If you have never tried Gordon's Stoplight, I suggest you do it now.

Old school diner with limited counter seating. Simple menu with mostly burgers and fries. Burgers are a little on the thin side so go double or triple. Food comes out quick and tastes great! Definitely going back. :)

UPDATE: they only take cash when you order/eat inside. But… if you use the connection to their “website” from here on Google Maps, you can pay with a credit card.

The best tasting burgers are served here! Reasonably priced. Only downside is they only take cash or check.

The food was fresh. The service was great! They even had a nice clean restroom in this tiny place! Not much room to sit, but they do have outdoor seating and a window to order to go meals! The prices are very reasonable too.

I eat here 4x or more a month. It's a masterpiece of a smash burger. Frys are always crispy with no salt, and fast, really fast like call them on your way there fast

Old timey feel, all seats are around a U-shaped bar that faces the grill. You get to watch these grill masters at work. Burgers are wonderful being pressed from ground beef right in front of you and not frozen patties :-p yuck

If you want a Smash burger, this is the place to go. The place is relatively small, so be prepared to wait. The food is made fresh, served with pride, this place is been open since the 50s or 60s the shakes are made with real icecream too. Cash only, so bring the green with you. They have an ATM in case.

First time here and I loved it! The service was great, the food was fresh and served quickly! Also, the prices were extremely affordable! It's a very cozy diner with limited seating, but they do have picnic tables outside as well. They also have the option to call ahead and then pick up. Glad I stopped in!

Amazing burgers! Service was very friendly and fast. I ordered to-go...was not disappointed! Double cheeseburger had a great sear and was so juicy. Fries were fresh and plentiful. A must stop!

Great little hole in the wall. Quick friendly service and fast good tasting food. The smashburgers are excellent! Fries too. Onion rings are good, but small portion size.

I’ve always loved eating at Stoplight! The burgers are amazing & I love cheesy fries. It just feels nostalgic and homey to eat there. I’ve also always had friendly service!

We don’t have any burgers, fries or shakes this good in Myrtle Beach. I love the food here. And the down home, friendly atmosphere makes for a perfect visit. I’ll definitely be back!

Every time I come here the food is hot delicious the service is great and the quality is always excellent I can't say enough good things about this place. Without a doubt the best mass Burger in Saint Louis.

I cannot imagine anyone having any complaints about Gordon's Stoplight. Most "great" burger joints pack so much onto their burger you can't taste the meat. Here, you could order a burger with nothing but the toasted bun and it very well might be the best burger you ever tasted. I got the double cheese with pickles. It about brought tears to my eyes. Nowhere in this state can you find a burger like it. Worth the drive from st. Louis.

Staff Is always very friendly, and burgers are the best around, always super fresh and very hot and made perfect, you guys kill it! I'll be back again soon

Great diner to stop in for a quick bite to eat. They have a walk up window with outdoor tables, or you can sit at the counter inside. Fries and burgers were made to order and ready within 10minutes. Be sure to bring cash, because they are cash only.

I absolutely adore Gordon's. The food is perfect and the people are friendly. You can get it to go or sit inside, bar like sitting. Must have cash. Try the pineapple milkshake it does not disappoint. Even though they just put a Culver's up across the street, Gordon's has the best burgers in Festus/crystal city, hands down.
