Seven days was not enough time to try all the burgers, so most locations have added an extra three days to Burger Week. Be sure to check 217foodweek.com to confirm the number of days being offered at each location, their hours and their offerings. Then get together with your friends and start making plans.
While you’re enjoying all the chef-inspired burgers, don’t forget your 217 Burger Week passport to plan your food journey and for a chance to win gift cards from local restaurants! Download your passport at 217foodweek.com or get one from inside the Illinois Times Feb 3-12. Be sure to send it to the IT office by Monday, Feb 17.
While restaurants are setting their burger prices they still make 217 Burger Week easy on the wallet and support local restaurants. Enjoy special Jack Daniel’s drinks at participating locations.
