Yes, that’s right 3 awesome burger joints under one roof and if that wasn’t enough, each slider creation will be paired with a Beer. And to close out the night….everyone’s favorite Fireman Derek will be in the house serving up a new dessert creation. Seating is limited and all details will be released very soon!
