Burger-lovers, rejoice. Next week—from July 30–August 5—is St. Louis Burger Week, where hungry beef lovers can visit more than 40 restaurants offering deliciously juicy $6 burgers all week long. In the spirit of trying something new, the event is geared toward celebrating what St. Louis’ culinary scene has to offer, while encouraging patrons to test their taste buds with some new flavors.
What’s more, patrons can get a Burger Passport, and if they earn their stamps at four or more restaurants, they can be entered into the Ultimate Grill Out.

A few things to note before you hit the ground running:
Get the burgers while supplies last. The event is expected to be quite popular, and restaurants might not have enough for the endless crowd.
Guests should expect to wait for a table throughout the week, no matter what time of day it might be.
Don’t forget to tip. At most of the restaurants, guests are getting a $10 burger for $4 cheaper, and employees are working double time to accommodate the masses, so the event encourages guests to tip at least 20 percent.
Buy a drink (or two) and an appetizer. It helps let the workers know you came for the experience, too.
Check social media for updates. The event is wanting restaurants to post current wait times and available burgers, so check their social media accounts before you set your heart on a particular juicy concoction.
Dine-in. Some restaurants require you put your feet up and relax, although some do have carry-out available. Call ahead if you’re needing to grab something on the go.
As of press time, below is the list of restaurants participating in St. Louis Burger Week. Check the event’s website to see what kind of burger each is offering.
