"FoPo knows how to keep things simple. $5 burgers. $3 fries. Assorted cheese and meat boards topped off with one of the best draught lists in the city and some laid-back vibes." - P'unk Avenue
"The Meal: Burger and Fries, $10 When you head to this East Passyunk tavern, you’ll encounter a few regulars who’ve been there every day this week. The simple, delicious, $6 burger is the reason why. The thick burger comes on a soft potato bun with crunchy iceberg lettuce, a slice of tomato, and melted American cheese. It’s like a standard BBQ burger—if your uncle’s beers never distracted him from burning your patty. And grab an order of fries to pair it with. Duh." - candis mclean
"This East Passyunk wine and beer bar has a short food menu that’s great when you’re sober or when your body is 60% Jack Daniels. Things start and end with pickles, french fries, and a very good burger. At the very least, order the burger. It costs $6 and tastes better than 90% of burgers in the city. It’s also a known Philadelphia aphrodisiac. Sit here and get flirty with a stranger you hope is still hot tomorrow." - candis mclean
"Juicy, well-seasoned, no frills, six bucks. Need we say more? No, but we will. The thick-patty burger at this East Passyunk bar is not so different from a burger someone would hand you on a paper plate at a BBQ, what with a slightly sweet potato bun, some iceberg lettuce, slice of tomato, and gloopy cheese. In this case, though, you get to eat in one of Philly's great bars, ideally with a glass of chilled red or a pilsner and crispy, brunette-colored fries." - candis mclean, alison kessler
"The delicious $6 burger at Fountain Porter is a burger for purists, with a juicy and well-charred patty and a no-frills presentation — just American cheese and a potato roll. It’s a perfectly easy side snack while you grab a few pints." - Maddy Sweitzer-Lamme
