Hackney's

Today I bring you a review of a must try place for those who love burgers and haven't ventured south to Hackney's yet. Hackney's has been run by the same family for over 70 years.

Right off the Harrison Red Line stop you can venture in for one of their famous Hackney Burgers right in Printer's Row. I got to try it out last Thursday and was impressed. It is your standard bar with a seating area on the other side to enjoy their tasty burgers. We sat on the dining side and tried out two different burgers, The Inside Out burger, which is stuffed with bacon and Cheddar Cheese and the Pretzel Burger, caramelized Spanish onions and provolone cheese on a pretzel bun. I'm a sucker for pretzel buns so I couldn't refuse!

Both were so delicious and perfectly cooked. The fries that were an option to come with were also very tasty. The burgers are pretty big so be ready to take home a doggie bag!

The Inside out burger was rated on Guy Fieri's Diners, drive-ins and dives as one of the best burgers in Chicago and he adapted the recipe and features it on the Food network now if you want to try it out at home: Hackney's Inside Out Burger

Go ahead and check it out! The red line makes it very convenient to stop on by after work. Make sure to get there before 6:30 or 7pm before all of the regulars fill up the place!
