Burger Week Commandments

Detroit Burger Week creates such strong, lusty, even insane feelings that we decided it needed its own little manifesto. Please read on...

1. THEY COULD RUN OUT

We expect that the restaurants will be extremely busy. So, if a place runs out toward the end of a shift, handle it like an adult, go back the next day, earlier, order your burger and thank them for working hard. Please be nice to our restaurants.

2. THERE'LL LIKELY BE WAITS

People have been talking about Burger Week 2024 for months. Don't be surprised if restaurants have waits. In fact, be surprised if they don't.

3. TIP LIKE A PRO

$8 brings out the cheap in all of us, but really, you're likely getting a $10+ burger, so please tip at least 20%. The people who are serving you are working harder during Burger Week than an average week. A kind word will also be welcome - these people are our friends and neighbors.

4. YOU SHOULD BUY A DRINK AND/OR OTHER FOOD

Purchase of sides and extras are not a requirement, but we think it says a lot to those working hard to bring you extraordinary experience. Grab some fries, a beer, a cocktail and say thanks!

5. CHECK SOCIAL MEDIA

Restaurants will be encouraged to post their waits and remaining burgers for the day on their social platforms. Also don't forget to share and tag your photos with #DETBurgerWeek.

6. DINE-IN & TAKE-OUT OPTIONS

While Burger Week was designed to be dine in only, with the current state some restaurants may be offering take out options as well. Make sure to double check the Official Burger Week App to confirm which locations offer carry-out and which locations are dine-in only.

Thank you!
