Burger 21 Coming to Downtown Disney?


If there's one thing Disney doesn't do well, it's hamburgers. Sure, there are a few highlights, like Rosie's in Hollywood Studios and the Grand Floridian Cafe, but overall, Disney burgers leave a lot to be desired.  I've often wished that Disney would add a Five Guys or an In-and-Out Burger (be still my heart) to Downtown Disney, but now we may be getting the next best thing: Burger 21, a gourmet burger bar.

Burger 21 is a small chain from Tampa.  I had the opportunity to try Burger 21 last fall and it definitely lived up to the local buzz. I loved the sweet potato fries and the burgers were good--maybe not as good as Five Guys, but really good.  If I have one complaint, it's the cost:  A  meal for two could easily set you back $40.  No one goes to Downtown Disney expecting to find food bargains, so I'm guessing Burger 21 will do just fine if the rumors are true. And for anyone who's craved a good burger on Disney property, this will be a welcome addition.

Will keep you posted on this rumor if we hear anything more substantial. Meanwhile, check out this review for more droolworthy burger info.

Thanks for reality! I'm always amazed when people say they like the burgers - it's like eating a school cafeteria burger-like patty.. so gross! Maybe this one will be good!
