Oakland: Classic Burger
One of AG's discoveries up in the East Bay is Classic Burger. Located in a random strip mall in the middle of seemingly nothing, Classic Burger appears unassuming from the outside:
And a medium fountain drink.
Walking inside feels like taking a step back in time to the days of old mom and pop burger shops:
Complete with gumball machines and a vintage menu board:
Classic Burger's signature burger, the classic burger (of course), comes with pastrami and cheese. Now, I'm not a big pastrami person. So I usually just order the cheeseburger ($5.49):
It comes with pickles, tomatoes, lettuce, and onions.
Ordering the cheeseburger combo ($10.09) only really saves you 28 cents, but a quarter is a quarter, so why not?
The combo comes with a side of fries:
If fries aren't your thing, you can get onion rings ($3.79) instead:
Will Classic Burger be the best burger you'll ever have? Probably not. But it's a solid burger joint. Prices are fair, portions are generous, and the service is quick. Plus, it appears to be family owned, which is always a bonus in my book.
And if you're looking to really treat yourself, why not get a milkshake ($4.39)?

No frills. No gimmicks. Just the way I like my burgers.
Classic.
