Also, like adding options and choosing the right trim, you can build a burger any way you want. Have it simple or fancy. What a person drives and what they eat are two powerful forms of expression. What’s on your perfect burger?

Epik Burger

Four words stand out from their webpage: “Burgers. Fries. Shakes. Beer.” They take those four food groups and execute them to creative perfection. It was opened in 2013 by a husband and wife team with culinary education and Las Vegas experience. One of their many award winning items is the Epikurean Burger, which includes a Maytag bleu cheese-truffle mousse, pancetta, mushrooms, and a blackberry-beef demi glace.
While an obvious carnivore’s delight, Epik also features nine vegetarian or vegan burgers plus vegan “Meat” balls. Milkshakes come both traditional and wild. Try the Southern Banana Pudding, Cinnamon Dolce or Elvis with banana, peanut butter, and bacon. You can also get vegan shakes with almond milk gelato.

The French Pantry
This bakery and cafe established in 1995 doesn’t look like a burger joint. They made their name producing breads and pastries so popular they supply many other restaurants in Northeast Florida.

Everything inside is created with the same gourmet pride The French Pantry takes with every item. Choose the simply named “Cheeseburger and Fries” for a top quality patty with cheddar, onion, tomato, mayo, mustard, and spring mix. Get bolder with the Texas Burger, featuring roasted poblanos, guacamole, pico de gallo, and Monterey jack. Make sure to grab some eclairs for the drive home.
