Buffalo Proper Plate & Pour - Yelp There’s nothing prim and proper about these burgers. From the swiss burger loaded with swiss cheese to “The Burger” topped with mustard, fried egg, and house chips, you can’t go wrong!
- Big Ditch Brewing Co. (55 E. Huron Street)
Otto V. - Yelp
Stefani E. - Yelp
Li S. - Yelp What goes better together than beer and burgers? Lucky for us, Big Ditch has great selections of both. Order the classic bacon and cheddar bacon burger or step outside of your comfort zone with their really “gouda” duck burger.

Paul S. - Yelp
Kristin C. - Yelp

Chris S. - Yelp
Sarah K. - Yelp The burgers at JuiCy Burger Bar live up to their namesake. While the restaurant itself might be small, their burgers are anything but. Not sure which one to order? Try the Hogzilla, Weck Yo Self, and Big Poppa burgers. You can thank us later.
