Connecticut is a great state for foodies – we’ve got world-class seafood and a whole lot more! Have you ever had a steamed cheeseburger? It’s one of the most iconic dishes in our state, and if you want to try the best ones around, there’s one place to go. Since 1959, Connecticut residents and visitors have been enjoying unique and delicious steamed cheeseburgers. Come to Meriden to try one and see for yourself what makes these burgers worth the drive from anywhere in the Constitution State.
One of Connecticut's most famous restaurants is a little hole-in-the-wall in Meriden called Ted's Steamed Cheeseburgers. They've been serving up burgers since 1959!
The cheese - a steamed cheddar, of course - is almost as popular as the burgers themselves. Choose your burger toppings and then smother them in this ooey, gooey, melted cheese.
Visit Ted’s Steamed Cheeseburgers on the web for information about their restaurant and food truck. You can even have the Steam Machine show up at your next event!
