Top Notch Beefburgers

About

Top Notch Beefburgers is a counter-service burger shop on 95th Street just east of Western Avenue in Beverly, on the Far South Side, in business since 1942. The shop grinds its own beef and griddles plain, old-fashioned burgers with lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, mustard and grilled or raw onions, with sharp American cheese as the usual add-on. The fries are the other reason regulars come, and the room suits families.
