Easton, Kansas · since 2023

The lemon gets squeezed in front of you.

Two trailers, one family, and a menu that changes with the weather. Fresh-squeezed shake-ups, kettle corn you can smell from a mile away, and the smash burger that won Best Burger in 2025.

A family trailer, not a franchise

Alleyway started in 2023 as one red trailer serving the Leavenworth community. Laura and Donald still run it themselves — which is why the lemon is cut, pressed and shaken where you can watch it happen, and why the kettle corn comes off the kettle rather than out of a bag.

In 2025 the Alley Smash Burger arrived: two beef patties smashed thin on the flat top, cheese, and our own bacon jam. The pink truck joined the same year with pretzels, pretzel bites, pretzel dogs and the Alley Freezy. When the leaves turn we switch to walking caramel apples, hot cider from a local farmer and crafted hot chocolate.

Mention this website at the window and take $1 off your lemonade. That offer has been on the old site for two years and we are not about to drop it now.

“The smashburgers are the best in the area,and the best price hands down. The baked potatoes are to die for, a loaded baked potato is all I need. My kids absolutely love the different lemonade options. Highly recommend.”
