Whether you're planning to explore a new destination with the kids or heading off on a romantic weekend getaway, I know one thing for sure—you’ll probably get hungry somewhere along the way. And if you’re like me, you’ll start craving a good burger. Surveys actually show that burgers are one of the most popular fast food choices while traveling, and I can totally relate. That’s why I’ve pulled together a list of burger spots I’ve either loved myself or heard raves about. You’ll find everything from famous nationwide chains to local gems with passionate founders and seriously satisfying meals. No matter where the road takes you, there’s probably a great burger waiting not far from your next stop.
