    Best Burger Chicago Edition. What are the best burger spots in Chicago? Here is a list of 7 of my favorite places to grab a burger in Chicago.

    If you're looking for famous burger places in Chicago, there are plenty.

    Whether you want a nicer experience, or you want a quick grab-n-go burger, there is no shortage of amazing spots to visit.

    Best Burger Chicago: West Loop

    Au Cheval

    This one is a complete fan favorite. It's not my absolute favorite, but I can see why others love it. Be sure to get their crispy fries with an egg as a side. That may be my favorite thing on their menu.

    Location: 800 W Randolph St, Chicago, IL 60607

    The Loyalist

    The Loyalist's vibe overall is absolutely amazing. It's in the basement of a building in the West Loop and they have a special on Tuesday - Thursday from 5pm - 7pm where it's $18 for a burger, beer and shot of bourbon.

    Location: 177 N Ada St #001, Chicago, IL 60607

    Small Cheval

    The little sibling of Au Cheval, meet Small Cheval. Unlike Au Cheval, there are a handful of locations around the city for you to enjoy Small Cheval. This is one of my favorite burgers in the city! Plus, their locations have some great patios to soak in beautiful Chicago weather.

    Locations: Old Town, Logan Square, Mag Mile/Aster Hall

    Best Burger Chicago: Wicker Park + Logan Square

    Mott St.

    I love this burger. You can get the burger at Mott St., or you can head over to Mini Mott in Logan Square. I highly recommend grabbing some burgers, fries and drinks and having yourself a picnic along Logan Boulevard.

    Locations: Mott St., Mini Mott

    Kuma's Corner

    I absolutely love everything about Kuma's Corner. From the heavy metal ambiance to the burgers being named after musicians, I highly recommend visiting if you're a fan of music. They have a handful of locations in the Chicagoland area, but I suggest visiting the flagship location in Avondale.

    Locations: Avondale, West Loop, Schaumburg, Vernon Hills

    The Moonlighter

    I love the laidback, dive bar vibe of Moonlighter in Chicago. They also have a huge front patio with picnic tables, perfect for enjoying a summer day or night in Chicago. I've tried their regular, double cheeseburger before and it is so good. If you love anything with grilled onions on top, cannot recommend visiting the Moonlighter more.

    Location: 3204 W Armitage Ave, Chicago, IL 60647

    Redhot Ranch

    This is the epitome of a hot dog/burger stand. It's a little stand and has some of the best greasy food you'll ever have. There are two locations, one on the west side and one on the north side.

    Locations: Logan Square, Lakeview
