Where to get burgers in Midlothian: pubs, sports bars, drive-thrus

Last checked 2026-10-19. Refreshed every three months.

Burgers in Midlothian are mostly a pub and sports bar order. Four of the seven places on this list are bars or pubs on Midlothian Turnpike (U.S. 60) and Village Place Drive, and the old soda fountain in the village pharmacy cooks hamburgers at lunch. Two drive-thru chains complete the list.

How we made this list. Midlothian has no city limits: it is an unincorporated part of Chesterfield County, so we used the Census Bureau’s boundary for the Midlothian census-designated place. The places come from OpenStreetMap records inside that boundary, which also feed our local directory, and from the Virginia Department of Health’s restaurant inspection records, checked against each place’s own website on 2026-10-19. Where a place’s own site could not be read, we say so and list it from its inspection record. The list is alphabetical and is not a ranking or a recommendation. Nobody paid to be on it. Restaurants can write to us to correct an entry.

The places

Capital Ale House

The Richmond beer hall chain’s Midlothian branch, in the Village Square shopping center. Every Monday from 3 p.m. to midnight is burger night: smashed and seared quarter- and half-pound burgers, including mushroom and Gruyere and a black bean burger, for dine-in guests who buy a drink, according to its Midlothian page.

DQ Grill & Chill

The Dairy Queen at 14031 Midlothian Turnpike, which the health district inspected in May 2026. Dairy Queen’s store pages block automated reading, so check the chain’s site for hours and the menu.

The sports bar on Heaths Way Road lists a classic smashburger of one-third pound beef and a fried bologna burger on its menu, each with a choice of sides, plus a separate sliders section and a kids’ menu.

McDonald’s

The McDonald’s at 13170 Midlothian Turnpike appears in the health district’s inspection records. Its store page blocked our request, so check the chain’s site for hours.

Midlothian Apothecary fountain

The soda fountain inside the village pharmacy serves hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, French fries and onion rings at lunch, according to its fountain page, along with milkshakes made with real ice cream.

O’Toole’s Restaurant & Pub
