About

Knockout Burgers in Carlsbad serves 100-percent Angus beef patties cooked to order from a counter on Carlsbad Boulevard, steps from the Carlsbad State Beach boardwalk. The standard build layers house Knockout Sauce, pickles, onions, tomato, lettuce, and cheese on every patty, a dressed-burger baseline that runs the opposite end of the protein spectrum from the grilled-fish plates at Pelly's Fish Market & Cafe in the Village. Specialty options include a Cajun bacon burger with Cajun ranch sauce and a jalapeño-sriracha build, alongside Hebrew National all-beef hot dogs and a garden burger for non-meat orders. The Carlsbad Boulevard address places the counter within the South Carlsbad State Beach zone, serving beach-goers walking the coastal trail between Tamarack Beach and Terramar Point. Mini rounders — 1.6-ounce patties served in sets of six or twelve — create a slider-platter format designed for boardwalk sharing, a small-format approach to Angus beef that contrasts with the pint-and-plate pub portions at Hennessey's Tavern. The Heavyweight, the menu's largest single burger, stacks a half-pound double-patty tower of 100-percent Angus beef with the full KO sauce, pickle, lettuce, onion, and tomato build on a standard or wheat bun.
