Congratulations to 821 Cafe for winning Richmond.com’s ‘Best Burger Poll’.

“We took over the restaurant seven years ago,” owner Andrew Clarke says, “and really ‘beefed up’ the menu, so to speak.”

Co-owners Chip Cooke and Andrew Clarke introduced a variety of ½-pound and full-pound juicy burgers to the menu and topped them with everything from fried onions and portobello mushrooms to bacon and chili.

They also do a lot of burger specials, like the Volcano Burger stuffed with fresh mozzarella, fried jalapeños and buffalo sauce or the Texas burger with BBQ sauce and whiskey fried onions.

821’s burgers run $6.25 to $9. Or you can even go for a “Man vs. Food” type challenge with the Brent Burger – a whopping one-pound patty sandwiched between two grilled sandwiches for $12.

821 also makes their burgers extra affordable with $2 quarter-pound burgers every Monday night. How’s that for a deal?

The most popular burger, according to Andrew, is the Union Burger ($8.50) topped with bacon, portobello mushrooms and fried onions. Or the Veggie Burger with bacon (yes, odd combo, but apparently quite popular), provolone cheese and avocado.
