Pinellas County has officially welcomed the Denver icon and cult favorite hamburger joint known as Smashburger.
Worried you might miss your beloved Smashburger when visiting Bamboo Beach Club Resort? Never fear: Pinellas’ first location will be in Clearwater.
If you haven’t tried Smashburger yet, their hallmark is fresh food you can get fast and still customize with top-notch toppings. People rave about the fresh quality of their burger meat, and they offer gluten-free buns.
The 2,000-square-foot, 90-seat indoor/outdoor restaurant at 5300 E. Bay Drive officially opened its doors yesterday at 10 a.m. Hours of operation are 10 a.m. – 10 p.m. daily.
Chicken sandwiches, fresh salads, premium hand-spun shakes and burgers made with certified Angus beef are staples at the fast-casual restaurant, which operates 340 restaurants around the U.S.
The burgers are smashed (get the name now?) on a 400-degree flat grill to sear in their juices, nestled on toasted buns and finished with an array of toppings.
One thing that does set Smashburger apart from other burger joints is they try to customize their menu regionally. For example, here in Kansas City, they feature a Kansas City burger you won’t find anywhere else.
The Clearwater Smashburger is no exception. Regional flavors and tastes exclusive to Southwest Florida will be showcased, including the Medianoche Smashburger (smoked ham, aged Swiss, pickles, red onion and mustard on an egg bun).
Wash it all down with anything from craft beer to root beer, all served in frosted mugs.
