It’s once again time to see which restaurant really has the best burger in Williamsburg.
Williamsburg Main Street Program is hosting its second annual BURGer Week event next week. Between Aug. 14 and Aug. 18, food lovers will have the chance to try offerings from three local restaurant’s vying for the BURGer Week crown.
Jonathan Wyatt, Williamsburg Main Street Manager, said that the three restaurants competing this year will be G & E Burgers, The Mint – Cumberland and Moonbow Mercantile.
G & E, who was crowned the BURGer Week champion last year, will be offering a burger topped with American cheese, grilled onions, bacon, tomato and mayonnaise on a buttered, toasted bun.
The Mint will have a double patty burger on a Brioche bun with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, mayonnaise, mustard and ketchup.
Moonbow Mercantile had not provided Wyatt with specifics regarding their burger as of Tuesday afternoon.
The winner is based on who gets the most votes. Each participating restaurant will have a sign at their establishment with a QR code that can be scanned to access the ballot to vote.
“Come support your local businesses,” said Wyatt, emphasizing community engagement is what helps drive these sort of events. Last year, local participation was lower than what was expected.
