Good Times
Colorado’s own drive-thru, built for burgers, sliders and frozen custard.
About Good Times
Good Times grew out of Round the Corner, a sit-down gourmet burger chain started in Boulder in 1968. In the mid-1980s its owners tried a faster drive-thru format, and the first Good Times opened in Boulder in 1987. The drive-thru outlived its parent, and in 2024 it simplified its name from Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard to just Good Times.
It is a small, very Colorado chain with a loyal following. The draw is the combination of all-natural Angus beef burgers, Bambino sliders and a rotating frozen custard flavour of the month. There is even a custard treat for dogs, which tells you a lot about its customers.
About thirty drive-thrus, almost all in Colorado, plus two in Wyoming.
