Jake's Hamburgers [CT]



Happy Birthday to Me! Everyone wants to give me a free burger for my birthday: Jakes, Red Robin and Ruby Tuesday. So I took my coupon to Cromwell which had electricity after Hurricane Irene and cashed in with the burger of the month: BBQ Crunch Burger [$5.69]. This was a double cheeseburger topped with potato chips and BBQ sauce and it was actually very good but the burgers here are always good. Where to next?

Free Strawberry Lemonade Milkshake today!!! It was good and just small enough to make believe there weren't many calories in it. Also had to have June's Burger of the Month: Grilled Chicken Club on Pretzel Bread. 'Bite in to a delicious, grilled chicken sandwich, topped with cheddar cheese, bacon and ranch dressing'. It was very good and the chicken was tender. This was another way to make believe I was having a dietetic lunch.

Field trip in the rain to Jake's Wayback Hamburgers in Rocky Hill. Have seen this place in several 'lives' and felt drawn to the hamburger hype.

Two of us: he ordered the Jake's Junior [1 patty] Bacon Cheeseburger [$3.89]. The list of extras [all free] is rather long; his was lettuce and tomato. Also ordered the famous 'real milkshake' in vanilla [$3.99] which was real good.

I had a Turkey Burger [$4.49] with lettuce, tomato, fried onions and mayo. This was the best seasoned turkey burger I have ever tried. Onion rings [$3.99] and french fries [$2.19] were good but not amazing.

bloginfo: The website locally is Jakes' Hamburgers but you get the same site.
blognote: Friendly and efficient service
