2024 Burger

Editors’ choice

Ledger Restaurant & Bar, Salem

Ledger has gained an enthusiastic following for its modern takes on traditional New England foods. So when the kitchen turns its mind to the humble burger, you know the results will be worth ordering. The Ledger Double Burger seems simple enough—two patties of smashed Brandt beef topped with American cheese, lettuce, pickles, and onions, on a sesame seed bun—but one bite and you will taste the Ledger magic at work. 125 Washington St., Salem, 978-594-1908, ledgersalem.com

Editors’ choice (casual)

Little Sister, Rockport 

The new burger joint by the folks behind farm-to-table favorite Talise, Little Sister serves up a tight menu of burgers, hot dogs, and fried seafood all made with the rigorous attention to quality and local ingredients that has made the big sibling such a beloved dining destination. Grab some napkins and find a seat inside or on one of the two outdoor patios, or take your burger to a scenic perch on Bearskin Neck to enjoy the view. 2 Doyle’s Cove Rd., Rockport, littlesisterburger.com  

Readers’ choice

A&B Burgers, Beverly

A&B has been a longtime favorite in downtown Beverly, and for good reason. The burgers come with creative toppings (or not, if that’s your vibe), and there are salmon, turkey, and veggie options for the less carnivorous. Fries, onion rings, and milkshakes round out the meal, and there’s pinball in the back to keep kids of all ages entertained.  206 Cabot St., Beverly, 978-993-7394, anbburgers.com
