The Burger Shop

About
The Burger Shop is a small family-run burger place on Wait Avenue in Wake Forest. Burgers are made by hand, the fries are cut in the kitchen, and the lemonade and orangeade are squeezed fresh. The menu stays close to the classics.
The building spent more than fifty years as The Barber Shop before the owners turned the little corner space into a burger joint. Regulars treat it as a downtown fixture, and the drinks get almost as much attention in reviews as the food does.

- The James is topped with cheddar pimento cheese, bacon, sauteed onions and barbecue sauce.
