Nick Rose, the founder of Juicy Burgers, has claimed that his establishment offers the best burger in America. This summer, fans of the beloved food item in San Diego are in for a treat, as two new Juicy Burgers locations are scheduled to open in Hillcrest and the College Area.
Having first opened its doors in Santee in 1978, Juicy Burgers faced setbacks during the pandemic. However, the franchise is making a strong return with the impending launch of its North Park location in 2023. With these new storefronts in full operation, Rose intends to expand the franchise into markets where Juicy Burgers previously operated. Starting with Las Vegas, the franchise will then move on to cities including Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Miami, Orlando, and Tampa. Rose also aims to establish a presence in tourist areas, stadiums, and sports arenas to extend the franchise’s reach.
The new locations in Hillcrest and the College Area will offer a menu similar to the North Park branch, with options for diners to create their own burgers or select from their signature offerings. Additionally, the Hillcrest branch plans to include breakfast items from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m., after which the traditional burger menu will be available. This addition pays homage to the location’s previous tenant, Breakfast Bitch.
In other food-related news in San Diego, Weathered Souls Brewing Company and North Park Beer Company are teaming up to host a five-course beer pairing dinner on May 16. On a different note, after seven years in East Village, You & Yours Distilling Company is closing its doors. Furthermore, a pop-up event featuring Angkorian Pikestaff at White Rice Morena is scheduled to take place this Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. Lastly, the Del Mar Wine + Food Festival is an event to anticipate.
