With its cozy charm, friendly staff and award winning burgers, Charm City Burger has solidified itself as hometown favorite. Their menu has a few pre-built burger selections, but the beauty of this place is you can build your own burger at a good price. Since there were so many options, I decided to let the staff guide my selection. I ended up ordering the daily special The “Southern Belle”.
The 6 oz burger was the perfect size for lunch. It came covered in munster cheese, spicy bbq sauce, haystack onions and creamy bacon cole slaw. In the original recipe, garlic aioli was included but I asked that it be put on the side. It ended up being a vital part of the burger because it was so good, that I added it back in. Instead of the classic hand-cut fries, I opted for the sweet potato fries.
As I was enjoying The “Southern Belle” burger, I looked over and saw the staff making milkshakes. The one thing I was not told about before heading to Charm City Burger was their legendary handmade milkshakes. Trust me, if I had known that the little burger joint that could was making milkshakes from scratch I definitely would have added that to my order as well. Oh well. It just gives me a little reason to sneak away from my desk for a midday treat.
If burgers are not your thing, Charm City Burgers still has you covered. There are vegetarian options, chicken sandwiches and wings, and non-beef burger varieties as well. If you are ever in the area, do not get caught up with the chain burger joints. Visit Charm City Burger for a handmade, old-fashioned burger done the right way.
