Hamburger Stan opens in Chicago’s Revival Food Hall | Eater Chicago

"Inside Revival Food Hall, this retro-style, unfussy throwback to classic fast food focuses on griddle-cooked, custom-blended smash burgers and hand-cut fries. Menu highlights include a signature double-stacked burger made with two three-ounce patties, a single-patty version, and a meat-free Impossible Burger option; burgers are served with American cheese, white onions, pickles and a tangy house sauce on a bun. A grilled chicken sandwich features a pickle-brined breast with lettuce, tomato and herb mayo (bacon available for an extra $2). Dessert and drink offerings lean nostalgic — chocolate, vanilla and strawberry milkshakes, draft root beer floats, fudgey brownies, plus root beer, lemonade, iced tea and fountain drinks. Founded by Jared Leonard as his second location after Denver and complementing his Budlong chicken spots, the operation is a five-month pop-up with daily hours from 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m., burgers priced around $8, and potential plans to expand into a standalone Chicago space if the Revival location proves popular." - Naomi Waxman
