What sets Good Times apart

Why Good Times is different from McDonald's, Burger King, or Wendy's

Good Times is a regional better-burger operator, not a national value chain. Three things make the difference.

Quality beef

Natural beef — no hormones added

Good Times uses natural beef free of added growth hormones — a quality tier above standard commodity fast-food beef. Not advertised as grass-fed or organic, but meaningfully above the entry-level national chains in sourcing standards.

Real fries

Fresh-cut fries from real potatoes

Good Times cuts its own fries from real potatoes in-store, rather than using pre-processed frozen fry product. The result is a superior texture and flavor — irregular, slightly rustic, and genuinely potato-forward. A key differentiator vs. almost every national competitor.

Frozen custard

Made-fresh frozen custard Concretes

Good Times is one of a small number of fast-food chains that makes frozen custard on-site rather than serving standard soft-serve. The custard is higher in butterfat and egg yolk content than ice cream, producing a denser, creamier product. The Concrete — blended thick with mix-ins — is a direct peer to Culver's Concrete Mixer or Dairy Queen Blizzard but made with superior base product.

Colorado identity

The Green Chile burger — a regional staple

Green chile on burgers is a well-established Colorado and New Mexico culinary tradition. Good Times' Green Chile Burger — natural beef patty topped with roasted green chiles (Hatch-style) and pepper jack cheese — is one of the most authentic fast-food expressions of this Colorado food identity.

Green Chile Fries (fresh-cut fries smothered in roasted green chile and cheese) round out the Colorado-specific menu. These items are not available at most national chains and represent the strongest argument for visiting Good Times over a national competitor.

  • Green Chile Burger — natural beef + roasted green chiles + pepper jack
  • Green Chile Fries — fresh-cut fries loaded with chiles + cheese
  • Colorado tradition — green chile is a regional staple in CO and NM
  • Hatch-style chiles — mild to medium heat
  • Availability may vary seasonally — confirm with your local store

Frozen custard guide

Good Times frozen custard — what to order and why it's different

Frozen custard is not ice cream — here is what to know before you order.

What is it?

Frozen custard vs. ice cream

Frozen custard must contain at least 10% butterfat (same as ice cream) but also contains egg yolk — at minimum 1.4% by weight. The egg yolk creates a denser, silkier texture with a richer mouthfeel. Good Times makes it fresh on-site, not from a bag or concentrate.

The Concrete

Concretes — the signature order

A Concrete is frozen custard blended with your choice of mix-ins until it is thick enough to be served upside down without falling out. Mix-in options typically include fresh fruit, candy pieces, nut butters, cookie crumbles and seasonal items. Available in Regular and Large.

Pro tip

Custard flavor of the day

Good Times rotates "flavor of the day" custard through vanilla, chocolate and specialty rotating flavors. The specialty flavors change daily or weekly by location. Ask at the counter or check the local store's social media for today's flavor — specialty flavors often sell out.

Ordering tips

How to get the most out of a Good Times visit

Must-order

Get the Green Chile Burger

Even if you are not typically a green chile person, the Good Times Green Chile Burger is the most Colorado-specific menu item and one of the strongest arguments for Good Times over any national competitor. Order it.

Dessert

Order a Concrete, not a shake

The Concrete is the better value and the more distinctive product. Shakes are excellent but the Concrete — hand-blended frozen custard with mix-ins, thick enough to turn upside down — is what makes Good Times' dessert program genuinely different from other fast-food chains.

Fries

Fresh-cut fries, not onion rings

The fresh-cut fries are one of Good Times' biggest quality differentiators. If you have ever been disappointed by soggy, limp fast-food fries, Good Times' fresh-cut version is a genuine upgrade — order them as your default side.

Flavor of the day

Ask about today's custard flavor

The rotating specialty custard flavor is often the best thing on the board. Ask at the counter or check the store's social media before you visit — specialty flavors sell out before close at busy locations.

App / loyalty

Check for a loyalty program

Good Times has offered mobile ordering and loyalty rewards at various times. Check the official site or your app store for current promotions — regional chains sometimes run location-specific deals not available at the counter.

Seasonal

Green chile availability varies

While Good Times aims for year-round availability of green chile items, fresh roasted green chile supply can be seasonal (Hatch harvest runs August–September). Confirm with your local store if the Green Chile Burger is available year-round at your location.

About Good Times Burgers and Frozen Custard

Colorado's original better-burger chain — natural beef and frozen custard since 1986.

Good Times Burgers and Frozen Custard was founded in 1986 in Colorado with a simple premise: better ingredients, made fresher, for fast food. Natural beef with no added hormones, fries hand-cut from real potatoes, and frozen custard made fresh on-site — at a time when the national chains were racing to cut costs and standardize everything.

The chain's Colorado-casual identity is reflected in its menu: roasted green chile builds that are a regional staple, a dessert program anchored in real frozen custard, and a community-rooted footprint that keeps quality control local. Good Times Restaurants Inc. (GTIM) is publicly traded and also operates the Bad Daddy's Burger Bar brand.

For a visitor to Colorado choosing between a national chain and Good Times, the calculus is simple: the natural beef, fresh-cut fries, and frozen custard Concretes are all meaningfully better than what you'll get at a McDonald's or Burger King, and the green chile builds are genuinely Colorado-specific experiences you won't find at a national chain.

Common questions

Good Times Burgers menu — frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the most common questions about Good Times Burgers and Frozen Custard — locations, menu items, beef quality, and what makes the chain different.

Where are Good Times Burgers locations?

Good Times Burgers and Frozen Custard operates primarily in Colorado, with locations in the Denver metro area, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Boulder and other Colorado communities. The chain also has a presence in neighboring states. Use the store locator on goodtimesburgers.com for current addresses and hours near you.

What makes Good Times burgers different from other fast-food chains?

Good Times uses natural beef with no hormones added — a quality commitment uncommon at major national chains. Fries are fresh-cut from real potatoes rather than processed frozen product, and the frozen custard is made fresh on-site rather than from a soft-serve mix. The chain has a Colorado-casual identity: regional green chile toppings, a focus on fresh ingredients, and a smaller footprint that allows for more local quality control than national mega-chains.

What is a Good Times 'Concrete'?

A Concrete is Good Times' signature frozen custard preparation — a dense, hand-blended mix of fresh frozen custard and your choice of mix-ins (candy, fruit, cookie pieces, nuts, etc.), blended so thick it can literally be turned upside down. It is closer to a Culver's Concrete Mixer or Dairy Queen Blizzard in concept, but made with higher-butterfat fresh-churned custard. Available in Regular and Large sizes.

Does Good Times have vegetarian options?

Good Times' menu is meat-forward, but there are vegetarian-friendly choices: fresh-cut fries, onion rings, side salad, and the frozen custard / shake lineup are all vegetarian as-served. If you prefer a veggie-only visit, the frozen custard and sides are the strongest options. Confirm specific preparation at your local store, as shared fryer use may be a concern for strict vegetarians.

Is Good Times' beef natural or grass-fed?

Good Times markets its beef as natural beef with no added hormones — a step above standard commodity fast-food beef. The chain does not consistently market it as certified grass-fed or organic. The natural beef claim is part of the brand's core quality positioning since its founding in 1986, distinguishing it from national value chains.

How does Good Times compare to Five Guys or Shake Shack?

All three occupy the better-burger / premium fast-food tier above McDonald's and Burger King. Good Times differentiates on its Colorado-regional identity (green chile builds, fresh-cut fries), frozen custard as a signature dessert, and a smaller, community-rooted footprint. Five Guys focuses on customizable fresh burgers and peanuts; Shake Shack positions around a New York-upscale premium narrative. Good Times is the most regional of the three, with nearly all locations in Colorado, and tends to run at a lower price point than Shake Shack.

What is the Green Chile Burger at Good Times?

The Green Chile Burger is one of Good Times' most Colorado-specific items — a natural beef patty topped with roasted green chiles (Hatch-style, mild to medium heat), pepper jack cheese, and the standard toppings. Green chile on burgers is a well-established Colorado and New Mexico food tradition, and Good Times is one of the fast-food chains that does it best regionally. Availability may vary seasonally — confirm with your local store.

Does Good Times serve breakfast?

Good Times does not typically serve a breakfast menu — the chain's operating model is focused on burgers, custard, fries and chicken through standard lunch and dinner dayparts. Confirm current hours and any seasonal menu changes with your local store via the official site.

When was Good Times Burgers founded and how many locations are there?

Good Times Burgers and Frozen Custard was founded in 1986 in Colorado. The chain remains a regional operator, primarily in Colorado, with a small number of locations compared to national chains. Good Times Restaurants Inc. (GTIM) is a publicly traded company that also operates the Bad Daddy's Burger Bar brand. For current location counts and addresses, see the official site at goodtimesburgers.com.
