What People Are Saying About Squeeze Inn
Featured Review

The Scene – The decorating scheme of this homely and homey burger pit is "turn-of-the-century garage." Frying pans and fishing trophies bear down from the ceiling, and gag signs about roadkill greet you from all directions. The Squeeze Inn is cramped, slightly dilapidated and hard to spot from the street, but that hasn't stopped it from acquiring a crowd of curmudgeonly regulars. The guff from the cooks and serving staff, meanwhile, comes in all forms of old-school sassy. – – The Food – It's not just the retro charm that keeps regulars coming back--the Squeezeburgers…
Editor's Tips
- Where to Sit:
- If the decor at Squeeze Inn is too claustrophobic for your taste, there are a couple of tables on the patio in back.
- Know Before You Go:
- The last half hour of each day is for takeout orders only.
Worst Burger and Service In Town!
by Christian Leech at Citysearch
If I could give No Stars, I would. I just got back to my office after waiting 30 minutes for a burger and fries togo. So I might as well spend the little bit of time I have left for lunch to comment on the HORRIBLE SERVICE and FOOD I just had from this place.
No one knew what they were doing, Mangers/Owners had no customer service skills and I had to ask 4 times "where is my food?" before I got any type of apologetic response. Then I get ready to eat my buger and its cold, dry, and all bread. Will NEVER come here again!

Wow, there's a lot of yummy foods in the Squeeze Inn restaurant. Upon leaving this restaurant, I'm really satisfied with the taste of their foods and the service they provide to their customers.
Yummy in the Tummy

HmmmmmmmGOOD!
Nothing like this in Portland or Seattle (not even Etta's!) This is Hamburger heaven! And the ambiance is perfect for old guys without jackets, ties or fat wallets -- like me (I am a dull brown Patty myself, in fact). Also try Everlasting Gifts in Roseville-same ambiance but for hippie-dippy crowd iso enlightenment.
Oh, Fudge !!!

I have nothing but bells and whistles to say for the yummy, old, cramped and oh-so stylish Squeeze Inn.
But, as a loyal customer, I just knew that one day I would try one of the 'new' locations. My favorite cousin from VA Beach came to town about a month ago. I decided to show off Sacto's best burgers by treating her to Roseville's Squeeze Inn.
The cheeseburgers were almost at their best. Initially, we were impressed!!! But, I ordered mine to be cooked with some medium pink in the meat only to be served a dull, brown patty.
The fries were so disappointing. We ate only about a fourth of them. They were beige in color, limp and mealy centered. We were looking forward to brown fries, twice deep fried, crispy edges and potatoes of substance. They were the most-disappointing feature of our meal.
The strawberry and chocolate shakes were on point! My cousin said that her chocolate shake was the best ever.
Aside from being overly hurried, the waiter was friendly and obliging.
Sadly, the ambience fell flat on its nose. A game table in the back was wasting space where nostalgic and cozy tables could have been. No one was using it. The booths and tables and chairs lacked charm and originality. The food bar and stools lacked artistic placement and design. And, the walls cried out for colors and an orderly theme. The entire decor seemed to have been thrown together at the final hour.
I felt sorry for what could have been. The Squeeze Inn's journey into the future should have been spectacular at all locations. But, for me, it fizzled.
But, I shall remain a brave warrior and give Squeeze Inn another try or two to win me over. My Pavlov response shall not be so readily extinguished.
Hanging in there for my rewards. Diane
