"Burgers and fries are always an easy sell, which is why you’ll always find a lot of parents and kids at Hopdoddy. There are giant stacks of fries, simple burgers, and milkshakes for kids if they’ve behaved, or as a bribe to get them to stop yelling about how Sarah stole one of their pickles. And there are burgers with toppings like caramelized onions, seared poblanos, and brie for adults. There’s also a great beer selection for when the children insist on kicking each other under the table." - adele hazan, nicolai mccrary
