Top 4 Burgers in Louisville

  1. 1

    Mussel & Burger Bar

    Downtown

    Best of Louisville 2025 Burger winner — the downtown room (with a Jeffersontown sibling) where the dry-aged patty and frites platter is the city's reflexive answer for a top-shelf burger night.

  2. 2

    Toasty's Tavern

    Shelby Park

    LEO Weekly Readers' Choice 2024 Best Burger — a thick patty bigger than the bun, melted cheese, pickles and the house 'toasty sauce,' routinely the top burger on local readers' polls.

  3. 3

    Shady Lane Cafe

    Brownsboro

    LEO food critic Robin Garr's personal burger pick — the Brownsboro Road cafe whose signature 'Brownsboro burger' he keeps at the top of his Louisville best-of lists.

  4. 4

    bar Vetti

    NuLu

    LEO Weekly's NuLu crossover — better known as Robin Garr's top Neapolitan pizzeria, but the house burger on the same short menu holds a place in his rotation.
