We are a mere week away from National Burger Day and we all know the cheeseburger was invented here in Denver despite what some may say. Nevertheless some of Denver’s finest establishments will be celebrating the day with some unique takes on one of America’s favorite guilty pleasures.

5280 Burger Bar

In celebration of National Burger Day, the homegrown spot will offer guest favorite The Perfect Burger with a Beer for $15. The aptly named Perfect Burger starts with Angus Beef which is topped with Gruyére, bacon onion jam, pickled red onions, lettuce and house-made roasted garlic aioli. Pair it with the exclusive 5280 Lager for the perfect Burger Day meal. The offer is good at all 5280 Burger Bar locations - Pavilions in Denver, Main Street Westminster and Colorado Mills.

Guapo Taco

When the team behind 5280 Burger Bar opens a taco joint, you can be sure they’ll have a Burger Taco on the menu. This creative burger and taco combo at Guapo Taco (Colorado Mills) features ground beef topped with pickle relish, cheddar cheese and special sauce nestled into a crispy corn tortilla wrapped in a soft flour tortilla. For National Burger Day Guapo Taco is pairing the Burger Taco with the Casa de Guapo Margarita for $10.

Mile High Flea Market

Celebrate National Burger Day all weekend by kicking off a day early at Mile High Flea Market. Americans eat over 50 billion burgers a year, so it's only fitting we set aside a whole day for these special sandwiches. Guests will get $1 off (one day only) a cheeseburger meal deal at the Marketplace Grill.

AND…MORE BURGERS!

Three Saints Revival

It’s meant to be that National Burger Day falls on a Sunday, because the brunch burger at Three Saints Revival is a can’t miss. The Wagyu Burger will satisfy any burger craving with aioli, house-made pickles, little gem lettuce and tomatoes. It’s a classic, juicy burger perfect for National Burger Day.

Stanley Marketplace

On National Burger Day, sink your teeth into the two-time Denver Burger Battle award-winning Stanley Cheeseburger from Stanley Beer Hall at Stanley Marketplace. Pair the Stanley Cheeseburger topped with American cheese, caramelized onions, Russian dressing and pickles with a beer of your choosing from the fifty-one pour-your-own tap wall for the ultimate burger and beer combo.
