All the hype online did not disappoint. Well worth the drive downtown for this amazing Smash burger. The flavors and sauce are divine. We both had the smash burger and fries and that sauce is amazing. If we are back in Denver we will come again.

There are smashburgers… and then there’s Twans. This place is the real deal a high-class burger operation running out of a trailer next to a bar, where every bite tastes like it was made with heart and serious skill. The smashburgers are pure perfection: crispy caramelized edges, melty cheese, soft buns, and that flavor you start dreaming about the minute you leave. The chef? Absolute legend. Super cool, always down for a chat when he’s not in full burger making mode, and clearly passionate about what he’s doing. I used to come here back when it was just burgers and chips now there are fries, and they’re incredible. Golden, crunchy, seasoned just right, and paired with that house-made sauce that ties it all together. The vibe at Twans is easygoing and genuine. Outdoor seating, colorful walls, good music, and people who actually care. I love that everything’s compostable and recyclable, it’s those small, sincere details that make you feel good about supporting a local gem like this. And yes, those photos of a tower of takeout boxes? That was us…. only three people, and we regret nothing. Every single visit hits the same. delicious food, great energy, and a little reminder of why simple things done well can feel so special. 💛 Twans forever. Burger Club Babe approved.

It's not the most beautiful burger but it's really delicious! The fries are so tasty and they've got a garlic dipping sauce that tied it all together beautifully! It's definitely the best burger I've had in Denver!

Now, I’m not typically a food truck guy, due to the mediocre food and typically high prices, but this was not that! While it was a little pricey, the burger was simplicity at its best with killer thick fries and a garlic aïoli on the side! Also the vibe of being in Finn’s Manor is a new touch.
