That’s right, it’s the perfect time to indulge in some of the best burgers Austin has to offer. Join me as I take you on a delicious journey through my favorite burger spots in this amazing city. Whether you’re a local or in town for the race, you’re going to love these places!

1. Top Notch

First stop on my burger tour is Top Notch! This place has been a staple in Austin since 1971. The retro drive-in vibe is super cool, and their charbroiled burgers are absolutely legendary. My go-to order? A classic cheeseburger with crispy onion rings on the side. And trust me, you’ve got to get a photo with me and the neon sign – it’s iconic!

2. New World Deli

Next up, I’m heading to New World Deli. This hidden gem in North Austin is known for its massive, juicy burgers and friendly atmosphere. I love the “World Burger” – it’s loaded with all the fixings and a secret sauce that’s out of this world. Perfect for fueling up before or after a training run. You’ve got to check it out!

3. JewBoy Burgers

Our third stop is JewBoy Burgers on Burnet Road. This place mixes Tex-Mex flavors with classic burger goodness. I can’t get enough of the “JewBoy Burger,” topped with crispy potato latkes. And their spicy jalapeño mayo? It’s a game-changer! If you’re looking for something unique and delicious, this is the spot.

4. Hopdoddy Burger Bar

You can’t talk about burgers in Austin without mentioning Hopdoddy Burger Bar. Their gourmet burgers and craft beers are the stuff of legends. I always go for the “Classic Burger” – fresh veggies, their signature sassy sauce, and a perfectly cooked patty. And don’t forget to treat yourself to one of their amazing milkshakes!

5. NADC (Not a Damn Chance)

Next, I’m off to NADC, where burgers and craft beer come together in a cozy setting. Their burgers are known for being hearty and flavorful. My top pick here is the “Bacon Jam Burger,” which has the perfect mix of savory and sweet. After a long day of running, it’s the perfect place to relax and refuel.
