OC Restaurant Quest: The Rolling Stoves in Farmington
(Crystal A. Proxmire, Jan. 28, 2025)
Farmington, MI – The quest to try every restaurant in Oakland County continues with a visit to The Rolling Stoves in Farmington.
The Rolling Stoves is known for their butter-seared burgers, served both at the restaurant and from their food truck that can sometimes be found at events throughout Metro Detroit.
For my visit I opted for the Smashed Cheeseburger for some classic beefy flavor. This hefty burger comes topped with American cheese, shredded lettuce, tomato, pickles, onion, mayo and ketchup on a toasted bun (with an American flag toothpick). I got the salt and pepper fries which were lip-smacking good.
Carrying on with my decidedly indulgent, I also got a delicious chocolate shake which is blended to order.
Other burger options include the Rodeo Burger with cheese, onion rings, bacon and BBQ, and the PB&B with cheese, creamy peanut butter, honey, crispy bacon, caramelized onions and pickles. They even have a Chipotle Black Bean Burger.
They also have a burger of the month. For January it’s the Thai Chili Crunch which is crispy chicken tossed in sweet chili sauce, crispy wonton strips, pickles, lettuce, and jalapenos.
There’s also a kids menu with mini chicken strips, grilled cheese, and mini smashed cheeseburger. The simple but delicious menu makes ordering a snap, and their space is decked out with pretty cool Detroit themed mural.
The Rolling Stoves is located at 20780 Farmington Road in Farmington. Learn more and order online at https://therollingstoves.com/.
