Take note…

• Just because a restaurant is participating in GatlinBURGER Week does not mean all the burgers from that restaurant are $7 during that week. The restaurant is featuring ONE burger as its $7 specialty burger.
• Note that some restaurants may run out of their Burger Week burger. Make plans to try for the burger on a different day if that happens.
• There may be a long wait time. Practice patience! Be nice to the staff.
• The $7 burgers are a la carte, therefore sides are extra.
• A minimum 20% tip is suggested.
