Burgers are a great go-to food. They’re filling, affordable, and one of the ultimate comfort foods. For over 100 years, burgers have been one of America’s favorite foods. When you need one of the best burgers you’ve ever tasted, Butler, PA has some of the best establishments to satisfy your burger cravings. These are a selection of our favorites.


The Chop Shop

Located at 108 N Main Street, the name doesn’t refer to pork or lamb chops, it’s decorated with lights, license plates, and other material “chopped” from cars. The relaxed vintage look includes lots of exposed brick and generously sized booths to relax and enjoy their delicious food. The laid-back atmosphere doesn’t extend to the kitchen or the servers. Both groups are fast, friendly, and their commitment shows.

The Shop’s basic burger is a beef or lentil patty with lettuce, tomato, mushrooms, onions, and dill pickles. The patties are freshly made every day. Don’t think basic means boring though the taste is excellent. To keep you excited, there’s a range of toppings, including bacon, brisket, and chili. They also have five specialty burgers that have been winning new customers since they opened. The Shop is open from 10.30 am Monday to Saturday.


The Holy Cow

Seventeen miles might sound like a long way to go for a burger, but if you think that you haven’t eaten at Holy Cow yet. The restaurant is located at 1230 W Park Road, Slippery Rock. They offer beef or black bean choices for your patty, and seven possible combinations to go with it. One of our favorites is the dragon burger with your choice of patty, lettuce, tomato, onion, fresh jalapenos, and pepper jack cheese. The Euro burger is our other choice, with a patty, portobello mushrooms, caramelized onions, arugula, and Swiss cheese.

Holy Cow has a great location, and it’s built just like an old-time diner complete with a tall neon “Eat Here” arrow sign. The retro look is almost as much a crowd-pleaser as their fantastic burgers. They’re open from 11 am to 8 pm from Friday to Sunday.


North Country Brew Pub

This pub was originally built in 1805. It’s operated as a pub and eating house for most of that time. The building has been extensively rebuilt using all-original wood and other materials. The building serves as a wonderful backdrop to their amazing burgers. They offer five basic burger options that can be customized with a wide variety of additional toppings.

Your patty choice includes Angus beef, chicken, vegetarian, vegan chicken, and Canadian-raised elk! If you haven’t tried an elk burger before, you’re for a real treat. It comes with a fried egg and candied bacon and is served on a bun made from the spent grains from their brewing process.
