Lightbulb Best HAMBURGERS in the Bay Area (sequel to pizza thread :)

Inspired by the pizza thread - What are your favorite hamburger joints in the bay? Hamburgers are my favorite food so pretty much anything satisfies me.

Off the top of my head I'd say my favorites are:

Fuddruckers (love the topping/salad bar)

http://www.fuddruckers.com/


Barneys Burgers (Piedmont/Berkely)

http://www.barneyshamburgers.com/



.....and I love McDonalds regular hamburgers/cheeseburgers, as well as the microwavable WhiteCastle Burgers (I know I'm gonna get flamed for this but I don't care, they are delicious!)

Be sure to post the location/city/website of your favorite place!

The best burger I have had was on a Tuesday @ Rosamunde in SF....

545 Haight Street
(between Fillmore St & Steiner St)

They only serve burgers once a week and you gotta get there early. It'll take some time too since its a small place and have limited grill space for burgers.

Their sausages are good too!

Darla's on 9th & Irving ain't too shabby either.
+1 for Barney's tho =)

For anyone that ever comes down to Monterey or Carmel, you have to hit up RG Burgers (two locations). Their burgers are above average, their fries and shakes are amazing!

val's is aightttt. i only went there once and i guess i wasnt happy cause they accepted cash only so i had to go across the street and use the liquor store atm and they charged like a 2 dollar cash withdrawal fee! good mushrooms. kind of expensive. the shake for sure was bomb though.


fast food burgers = in n out kills it

other burgers = home made grilled burgers with anything i can think of thrown on it

Someone that is good at Flash needs to make an interactive map of NorCal with showing the locations of the good pizza, hamburger, and booze places in all areas
