Needs more options for burgers. But it was really good. I had jalapeños onions and bacon in mine with the white sauce. The cheese fries were a beer cheese that was very cheddar flavored, personally a huge fan. Not a low grade nacho cheese. I would easily come back. Place to eat is attached to brewery. We got lucky and got patio seats outside at the counter.

First things first. The burgers were absolutely delicious. The next time I am in town I will definitely be coming back. The food truck and the combination with the Ink Factory Brewery was just perfect. I happened to find this spot and so glad we came here. Beers were delicious and went perfectly with the burger and loaded fries. They also have a cafe and a shop. Cool vibes.

This food truck has some of the best burgers ever. Flavor and texture were nice. Prices are fair. Service was fine. Would like to try again sometime.

Hard Pressed isn’t your average burger spot—it’s a flavor battlefield where bold, juicy burgers reign supreme. With hand-smashed patties, custom toppings, and sauces that pack a punch, every bite is an unforgettable experience. Whether you’re a spice junkie, comfort food lover, or plant-based warrior, we’ve got something that’ll blow your taste buds away. Come hungry. Leave legendary.

Derek is the man to see when you want a delicious smash burger. Awesome food truck next to INK Factory Brewery

Omg dude soooo good, had their hardpressed and due to a gluten allergy they put it over fries (which are not fried with gluteny things, but do your due diligence if you have celiac or gluten allergy) They brilliantly partner with Inik Brewing so you can get a delish burg and a refreshing beer to wash it down with (cider and smoothie bits gluten free according to the bartender). Friendly excellent service and prices fair asf! Hit em up, you won't regret it!

This burger food truck is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked up, the vibe was great — welcoming, quick, and full of positive energy. The food was hot, fresh, and totally hit the spot. What made the experience even better was the service. Aldi, our server, was incredibly friendly and professional. Highly recommend checking them out if you’re in the area — you won’t be disappointed!

Smashburgers are my favorite! I was really excited to finally try Hardpressed while at Ink Factory. Hubby placed our order, received a buzzer then picked it up a few minutes later. I went with the single Hardpressed burger and he chose the double Hardpressed burger. We shared a regular order of fries. The burger itself was meaty and cheesy, perfectly balanced with the garlic aioli, pickles and caramelized onions. Salted well, just the right amount of greasiness. The bun soaked up everything well. Hubby really enjoyed his double. The fries were hand-cut and crispy yet still pillowy inside. All in all, Hardpressed is serving up great burgers and fries. Simple menu that's executed well!

Absolutely delicious smash burgers and fries outside of Ink Factory Brewing! The burgers were perfectly crispy on the edges, juicy inside, and packed with flavor. The fries were golden, crispy, and seasoned just right. Fast service, friendly staff, and a must if you're at Ink Factory! Availability depends on the day.

Love this place. The burgers are amazing. Service quick and with a smile. It's a food truck so you the ambiance has to go to Ink Brewing since the truck is located in the parking lot. But the great place, to stop, enjoy a beer and chow down on a good burger.

Great service. Social media brought us in. The sloppy Joe special was delish but didn't look exactly like the pic the regular burger was also yummy. Hey a double or a triple. The crust was on point. Fries good and crispy and cheese sauce legit

I tried Hard Pressed foodtruck a few months back. I was at Jax Beach and did a search on Yelp and found they were close by. They are located in the parking lot of Ink Factory Brewing. I waited to order about 10 minutes. It was a busy Friday night, so the wait time for my food was about 20-30 minutes. It was worth the wait! I ate in my car as I didn't want the food to get cold lol. I had a single cheeseburger with everything and fries with beer cheese. The burger was so juicy and flavorful! I don't know what kind of seasoning they used, but it was on point. And I liked how they put the bun on the grill. The fries were hot and deliscious. I don't typically order fries, but I'm so glad I ordered on this occasion. I usually dip in ketchup, but I highly recommend the beer cheese. Even with the long wait, I will absolutely go back to Hard Pressed again soon!

If you haven't tried Hard Pressed Burger yet, you are missing out on the best burger in Jax. The smash burgers are a special blend of short rib and brisket smashed into caramelized onions, topped with American cheese plus their amazing house pickles and garlic aioli. Every flavor works perfectly together to create delicious bites. I love pairing my double with their garlic parm fries, or skipping fries and getting the triple. They do pop ups around town but we are lucky to have them permanently posted at Ink Factory Brewing Th-Sun of each week. You can grab a seat and a beer inside IFB while waiting on your HPB order. It's the perfect setup!

These are the best burgers you will ever have in your life and if you don't try them then you might as well just seek therapy bc there is something wrong with you. Seriously rethink your life. The pickles are so mf good they are tangy af. The burgers get crispy on the edges and it's delicious. I took my parents to get HP and they both said they would rather have the burgers as a child than me which is fine I completely agree. 12/10

This a bad lil' food trailer offering simple ingredients cooked to perfection. Grilled Onions are a must and opt for the Parm Fries. I'm not much of a beer drinker, but it's parked next to a brewery if your into nasty hop juice.

All I could say was "now that's a burger", very juicy I loved the white sauce and jalapeño concoction they put on it. Each bite was bursting with flavor . The employees were nice and helped me navigate what I wanted I'm also glad we were able to get some cheese on the side cause it was bussin when you dipped the burger in it. It was raining outside but the food truck had a tent you could stand under which was nice, it seemed like the best place to go to for lunch, hangovers or a dinner with friends to catch up with And the burger is worth the $12

This place is DYNAMITE, a must try! We took the Ferry to get to this place and boy was it worth it. The hard pressed burger was truly the best burger of my life. Next time we visit, we will be coming back! Excellent food and service.

Justin and Eddie started as a Pop-up service last year and gained a huge following in the foodie community, myself included which has allowed them to launch this Newly added permanent food truck in front of Ink Factory Brewing! Hard Pressed Burgers is serving up some of the Best Smash Burgers in Town. Grinding their Beef, making their pickles and condiments, and adding Regular, Garlic Parmesan or Loaded Fries to their menu. Be sure to stop by their new home at Ink Factory Thursday through Sunday to see why we can't get enough of the Smash Burgers at Hard Pressed and let the guys know that Big Rich Sent Ya

The burger is amazing. Staff was a little unhelpful and seemed to be in a rush even tho there was no line. It's outside of Ink brewery so traffic is good.

Top 5 best burger of all time...I've had a lot of burgers and this one is definitely at the top of the list!

We always love hitting Hard Pressed at Ink. Hands down the best burgers around us in the beaches area. We always get both the jalapeño bacon and standard hard pressed and share. The jalapeño is perfectly spicy and the standard is that classic American taste you want. They press the burgers into onion in the griddle and they char up, perfect. Can't say enough about how good these are. They have several fry options too; I am partial to the beer cheese, they also have loaded and garlic parm.

As a mom with a child with an egg allergy, it's frustrating when an establishment acts with disregard and lack of courtesy or compassion to CHECK A LABEL for a customer. I wish we didn't order from them simply because of how rude the cashier and chef were when asked if they can check to see if the potato rolls had egg. Off the cuff you can assume it does but I know Martin's potato rolls is egg free. They didn't bother checking or offering an option for my little girl and we had to find her meal elsewhere after our order. The burgers were decent but the people weren't so they won't get return business. Based on a Facebook post seems like they do use Martin's potato buns which would have been safe for my girl to eat. Parents with kids with allergies eat out, too. The service industry is hard, but remember to be kind and offer options.

Hard Pressed is awesome, sure it's not fine dining, it's a food trailer! It's in the parking lot at Ink Brewing, one of our go to places in Neptune Beach. The burgers, fries hotdogs are great, you can order them to go or enjoy them in the brewery. The guys are great, the service is quick. I'd like to say stay away because it's typically busy and we have a hart time finding a table but seriously, this is a fun time - grab a burger on a Friday evening and stay for music trivia.

Hands down best burger ive had in jacksonville. Smash burgers are the best burgers and hard pressed does it right

Unreal. Went to Ink with the sole purpose of grabbing these burgers. Ordered a double bacon jalapeño burger, double hard pressed burger, & beer cheese fries. Bacon jalapeño was one of the best burgers I've had in a while. Patty's were smashed perfectly, great ratio of cheese to beef, & jalapeños were just the right amount of spice. Hard pressed burger was a close second. Same kind of deal, except the jalapeños were replaced with pickles. The garlic aioli is the cherry on top, would get an extra on the side next time because it's so good. Beer cheese fries where nothing special but don't let that fool you because this place is fantastic! Can't wait to come back!
