2. Jim's Drive-In, Lewisburg

As featured on the Food Network website, Jim's Drive-In has earned a scrumptious reputation since the early 1950s. And there's nothing better than a cheeseburger on a moist, sesame-seed bun with lettuce, tomato, mayo, and dill pickle unless it's the fried-green tomato sandwich. Order a milkshake too!

3. Fat Patty's: Huntington,

Barboursville, Teays Valley, and

Ashland, KY

Fat Patty’s is so beloved in West Virginia that has four locations! The sides here are just as exciting as the burgers, especially this junior patty (can you believe?) with cheese, bacon, fried egg, mushrooms, and barbecue sauce with a side of creamy mac-n-cheese.

4. The North End Tavern, Parkersburg

The North End Tavern is the oldest restaurant in West Virginia, founded in 1899. The burgers are just as famous as the beers, especially the Net Burger and award-winning ale, Roedy’s Red.

5. The Poky Dot, Fairmont

The Pokey Dot is known for its gigantic portions, and the burgers are no exception. This is a triple stacker slider burger with nacho cheese - YUM!

6. Whistle Punk Grill & Taphouse, Richwood

You'll find this cool place on the historic Main Street just steps from the Monongahela National Forest, in a nearly century-old building. The diverse menu includes this grilled cheese Smash Burger, a double-decker with jalapeño peppers, onions, American and provolone cheeses, and house-made chipotle mayo. For the vegetarians out there, check out the black bean burger called Sterling Spencer on the Whistle Punk website.

7. Avenue Eats, Wheeling

Avenue Eats stands out as one of the best restaurants in Wheeling. The burgers are made from grass-fed beef, and topped with creative ingredients. Try the delicious Greek burger.

8. Dolly's Diner, Princeton

Enjoy the daily specials at Dolly’s Diner that sometimes include a discount on the yummy Super Burger crafted with two, juicy, beef patties and cheese - the main stuff. And you'll want to save room for dessert at one of the best West Virginia burger places.

9. Chetty's Pub, Lansing

Chetty’s Pub overlooks the New River Gorge, which we love. It's a perfect location for fueling up after your adventures. Order one of the best hamburgers in WV, the Pizza Burger with pepperoni, provolone, and marinara sauce.

10. Hillbilly Hot Dogs, Lesage

Hillbilly Hot Dogs is best known for the hot dogs, of course, but the staff serves burgers, too! You can get normal-sized burgers, or monstrosities like this triple-wide that feeds up to 50 people. What????!!
