1. Shake Shack
What started as a hot dog stand in New York City became an international restaurant success. Shake Shack is known for its delectable burgers, fries, and milkshakes. With many burger options, you can go for a classic beef patty, a veggie burger, or my all-time favorite, the Shroom Burger, with a patty made from a fried portobello mushroom filled with cheese.
2. Culver's
Commenters repeatedly brought up Culver's decadent, buttery burgers on the thread. "Culver's Double Deluxe is a great balanced burger. Fresh toppings, not overloaded with sauces, good quality flavorful meat and bun," writes one Culver's fan. "It gets juicy, but they serve it in a wrapper in a box so you can stay clean."
3. Five Guys
While ordering at Five Guys means leaving your car and entering the restaurant, the trade-off is worth it for their delectable and customizable burger options. "Five Guys is easily the best," claims one commenter. "The burgers are great, the fires are ungodly, and it's all real food."
4. Wendy's
This classic nationwide fast-food chain is popular because of its fast service, convenient drive-through windows, and quality ingredients. "I love Wendy's burgers for their smaller but thicker patties," says one user. If you're a bacon-lover, try their famous Baconator burger.
5. Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers
"Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers is a favorite of mine though they're not as widespread across the country. If you find one, definitely try it," urges one forum member. Freddy's is known for their quality steakburgers that take the hamburger to a new level.
6. In-N-Out Burger
This West Coast burger joint boasts quality food prepared quickly. Choose from various combos like the unique and not-so-secret Protein Style burger, which uses lettuce instead of a bun around your patty.
7. Whataburger
Initially founded in Texas, Whataburger now spans ten states in the American South, and northerners are upset they don't have easy access to this delicious chain. "Whataburger is my personal favorite. It's a shame that there aren't any around me," says one respondent. Fans of the chain love the Patty Melt, a classic burger, but you get Texas toast instead of buns.
8. Carl's Jr.
This international fast-food chain serves underrated burgers, according to many respondents. They have many options, like the Guacamole Bacon Angus Burger and the spicy El Diablo burger, which comes topped with jalapeño poppers and a habañero ranch sauce. Carl's Jr. charbroils their burgers, which are cooked on a slated grill to give them a smoky, rich flavor.
9. Burger King
Some commenters believe wholeheartedly that Burger King has the best burgers. "Whoppers are great, and they're an easy go-to for me and my wife, but I think their best burger is the Bacon King. That thing is delicious," writes one contributor.
10. McDonald's
While McDonald's will never win the best burger contest for freshness, many think their burgers have the best taste and remind them of their childhood. "I go to McDonald's for the childhood nostalgia," says one forum member. I mean, who doesn't love a classic Big Mac every now and again?
