America has always been home to a variety of mouthwatering cuisines. Today, we focus on one of the nation’s most beloved foods, burgers! Charlotte boasts of some of the best burger spots you can try out on your next visit to the city. Here is a list of some of the Best Burger Spots in Charlotte.

1. Bleu Barn Bistro

1801 N Graham St Suite 100, Charlotte, NC 28206,
No Phone Number

The family-owned burger joint is famous for its Bleu Barn Bistro Barn Burger that features a local grass-fed beef patty crowned with applewood-smoked bacon, a free-range egg and covered with a toasted bun. You will find a layer of roasted garlic aioli, red onions, butter pickles, mozzarella cheese, and arugula to add more flavor.

We consider this as one of the best burger spots mainly because of its farm-to-table menu. The burger will leave your taste buds yearning for more, but the outstanding customer service will make you a return customer. The spot operates from Monday to Sunday, 7 am-8 pm.

2. Brooks Sandwich House

2710 N Brevard St, Charlotte. Since 1973,
(704) 375-7808

Brooks has served Charlotte residents and visitors faithfully with some of the country’s best burgers and hot dogs. The family-owned business is well-known for its southern, rough-hewn burgers made even tastier with their trademarked homemade chili. Despite the recent tragedy of losing one of the co-owners, Brooks has bounced back into the business to serve Charlotte residents with some of their best delicacies.

Due to COVID-19 regulations, the joint is currently offering takeaways with a limited number of dine-ins. This has also forced them to revise their group order policy. When ordering as a group, your orders will be in one bag, as you requested, with one receipt to cater to the entire order.

3. Harriet’s Hamburgers

1115 N Brevard St Optimist Hall Stall #6, Charlotte, NC 28206,
(704) 582-4411

Harriet’s makes it onto our list for their juicy, delicious, and signature burger that has patrons returning for more. They are known for their cheese-stuffed hamburgers made by placing cheese between two patties and sealing it to make one large, juicy patty. The resulting burger has a clear distinction from the traditional cheeseburger based on texture and taste.

To add flavor to their burger, Harriet’s use a buttery Brioche bun, topped with in-house pickles, ribbon red onions, and their signature sauce. All this for $8.95. You can choose to dine-in or order takeaways. However, they don’t offer contact deliveries.

4. Pinky’s Westside Grill

1600 W Morehead St, Charlotte, NC 28208,
(704) 332-0402

When a burger place is featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, you know it’s earned a sterling reputation. Pinky’s more than meets the mark. 

Their burgers are some of the best in town, whether you’re getting a Pterodactyl Burger (5-oz beef patties) served Ding Dong style, with crunchy peanut butter, cilantro-honey slaw, and sriracha (it sounds weird, and it is…but oh so very delicious) or the Patsy Melt: a 5-oz burger, topped with grilled caramelized onions, 1000 island, and both Swiss and American cheese on Texas toast. Or opt to keep it simple and just throw pimento cheese and “everything” (mayo, LTO, and pickles) on a burger. Get as many sides as you can, like sweet potato chips with wasabi ranch, waffle french fries, or onion straws, and don’t be afraid to start with their top-of-the-line Greg’s Pickles (fried pickles) served with ranch. They’re unbelievable.

5. Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar

1626 East Blvd, Charlotte, NC 28203,
(704) 714-4888

Bad Daddy’s doors open at 11 am and close at 9 pm from Monday to Sunday. This is probably one of the best places to be when you want an early lunch or an evening snack for you and your company. To satisfy your burger cravings, we suggest you go for either the classic daddy’s sliders, mushroom, and Swiss slider, or the steroid slider. These options are also suitable for a large company, with you having to part with only $24.00.

One of the greatest selling points at Bad Daddy’s is the opportunity to create your burger at $9.95 only. Other notable options to choose from include Bad Ass burger, peach burger, Bacon cheeseburger on steroids, BD’s All American, Pastrami, Western Burger, Smokehouse burger, Nicky’s Patty Melt, Daddy’s Philly, Magic Mushroom burger, and Sam I Am Burger, all of which range $11.95 – $15.95.
