We are the Forge
Our huge burgers started from little beginnings. It began with a couple of burger-lovers and friends who envisioned a new kind of restaurant: a burger joint serving freshly made and perfectly prepared burgers. Forge Burger takes you back to the basics. Our burgers are ground-in house daily using hormone-free, range-fed, AAA beef, chicken, and pork, brought to you with fast, friendly service. We source locally — Forge Burger is the quintessential local eating joint!
More than just a burger. It’s an experience in itself. We don’t know how to put it into words. You’ll just have to stop by or order a burger for yourself.
