The Little Hole-In-The-Wall Restaurant That Serves The Best Hamburgers In Wisconsin

Al’s Hamburgers in Green Bay is a beloved historic restaurant known for its classic hamburgers and milkshakes.

Some of the biggest Wisconsin flavors can be found in the smallest places. In the heart of Green Bay, a hole-in-the-wall restaurant called Al's Hamburgers in Green Bay has been serving some of the best hamburgers in Wisconsin for generations. Not much has changed at Al's Burgers in Green Bay, which is a very good thing - it’s perfect just the way it is. Here’s why Al's Burgers is so beloved.

The story of Al’s Hamburgers starts about nine decades ago. The little hamburger and milkshake stop opened in 1934, in the heart of Green Bay.

The restaurant became a longtime favorite in the Green Bay area. It was first opened by Al Rank. He operated the restaurant for five decades before his son took over. New owners took the helm in 2016, and they preserved the celebrated restaurant.

The cozy dining room has old-school booths and stools that beckon hungry diners.

The restaurant’s menu has items that have been served for a long time, as well as some newer arrivals. The Tailgate Burger includes a ground beef patty, a whole bratwurst, multiple Wisconsin cheeses, German brown mustard, and sautéed onion. It’s a huge burger!

Al’s also has some great hand-blended malts and milkshakes. Order a classic or mix and match your own!

The sides are pretty great, too – order some crispy tater tots or some onion rings with a house dipping sauce. Everything is served in an old-school casual style: on paper in a basket.
