Best Burger Joints

So, where are the best burger joints?

Fuddruckers

We became addicted to Fuddruckers when they recently opened their new restaurant in the Jordan's Furniture store in Reading, MA.

They offer excellent burgers....from a generous 1/3 lb to a mammoth 1 lb, there is a burger sized for everyone. And not just burgers, I happen to love their turkey and veggie burgers as well. If you still want something more, they also have chicken sandwiches (crispy or grilled), fish sandwiches, steak sandwiches, and hot dogs.

It is easy to add your own toppings, like lettuce, tomatoes, onions, ketchup at their self-serve bar, but you can also grilled onions & mushrooms, and cheese.

The french fries are tasty. I give their onion rings a "B-" not the best, but still good. I don't really like their baked beans, but Mike does. I do like their side salad and cole slaw. Their desserts are heavenly...cookies and brownies. Try the coconut/macaroon cookie, it is to die for! If you are into ice cream shakes and malts, then they offer those too!

All in all, Fuddruckers is a great burger joint, but there are only a few locations in the Northeast

If you live near a Fuddruckers, then check them out!

Wild Willy's Burgers

We made Wild Willy's Burgers a regular dinner stop when we visited the York, Maine area. When we found out there were two more locations, we were ecstatic, especially when the one in Rochester, New Hampshire is a quick stop on route to Danforth Bay and the Ossipee, NH area.

Besides a bevy of delectably topped beef burgers, they also offer a veggie burger (delicious) along with chicken and haddock sandwiches.

Their onion rings are home made and yummy, I wish they made larger chunks of onions though. Their rings are a sliced thin. The french fries are delicious, hand-cut and the skins are left on! Mike loves their draft root beer!

Hopefully you can visit a location near you:

Fast Food Joints

So what about McDonald's, Wendy's and Burger King? Do these restaurants count as burger joints?

I think if most kids were to comment, the answer would be a resounding Yes! Personally, we like Wendy's. I feel they offer the most healthy choices compared to the other two and I love their salads.

  1. I just remembered that the 99 Restaurant also makes a great burger. They also occasionally offer turkey and veggie burgers too.
