Happy National Burger Day—time to “meat” your expectations in Louisville! Sink your teeth into a brie-lliant creation at Grind Burger Kitchen, where even the veggie options go from chickpea to chic-pea in a single bite. Or worship at the altar of Holy Grale—add bacon and onion jam, and suddenly you’re having a burger with a sermon. Feel like going wild? Game lets you swap beef for bison, duck, or even antelope—talk about taking your taste buds on a safari. And if you've got nostalgic vibes, roll into Ollie’s Trolley—because nothing says tradition like a good ol’ Ollie burger served from an actual trolley car. And these are just SOME of the best burgers in the Ville! Happy flipping, Derby City!
