Hungry for a nice burger but don’t know where you can find the best one at? There are many restaurants to get a burger, but which one is the best?

Personally, my favorite burger is the 60/40 burger from Red Cow. The 60/40 burger is 60 percent CAB burger and 40 percent ground bacon patty, and it’s topped with Wisconsin aged cheddar cheese, beer mustard and Canadian bacon. The best part of this burger is the beer mustard.

The closest Red Cow is in Minneapolis on 50th street. They also have a location inside of Target Field; the only difference is that this location only sells sliders instead of the full burger.

Another great place for a burger is Matt’s Bar, located in Minneapolis on Cedar Avenue.

“I really like their regular Jucy Lucy. The cheese is like a molten volcano erupting in your mouth with tremendous flavor,” said Johnny Kahner, senior. “They also have a fun old school atmosphere that adds to the experience.”

5-8 Club is another great place to get a burger. With three locations in Minnesota, their closest is in Minneapolis also on Cedar Avenue.

“I like the original juicy lucy with pepperjack cheese,” said Tommy Auth, senior. “I also really like the local atmosphere they have and their service is top-notch.”

Matt’s and 5-8 are both great options for a juicy lucy burger, but how can you decide on which one to go to. A juicy lucy at Matt’s cost only $7.50 but it does not come with fries, while at 5-8 a classic juicy lucy costs $9.99 and comes with fries.

Parlour Bar is another place to get a solid hamburger. They are located in Minneapolis on Washington Avenue and they also have a location in Target center.

“My favorite burger is the parlour burger, said Austin Lehman, senior. “It’s a mixture of three different meats, and when you bite into it, it melts into your mouth.”
