BGR The Burger Joint

BGR sits alone at the top - in the 'best burger' niche - as we continue to separate from the 'better burger' crowd. We have awards from around the country to back up that claim - including coming in 3rd at the U.S. Word Food Championships, competing against chefs - while other better burger concepts did not dare to enter. We will compete against any burger - any place - any time!

Buying a Franchise Guide: What is a Franchise Disclosure Document?

When evaluating a franchise opportunity, reading and understanding the current version of their FDD is a necessity. Considering the benefits of franchising, such as established brand recognition and support from the franchisor, it's important to also take into account franchise fees and franchising royalty fees.
