Seven days wasn’t enough time to try all the burgers, so we’ve added three extra days to Burger Week. Check 217foodweek.com to view each location’s hours and offerings. Then gather your friends and start making plans.
While enjoying the chef-inspired burgers, don’t forget your 217 Burger Week passport. Use it to plan your food journey and enter for a chance to win gift cards from local restaurants. Download your passport at 217foodweek.com or pick one up at the Illinois Times office from Aug. 17-26. Be sure to send it to the Illinois Times office by Monday, Aug. 31.
Restaurants set their own burger prices, with the goal of keeping 217 Burger Week affordable while supporting local businesses. Special Jack Daniel’s drinks also are available at participating locations.
