Dig Into 6 Epic Cheeseburgers in Palm Beach County

Meat fans get ready! National Cheeseburger Day is coming on Monday, September 18, so it’s just a short month away. Make your plans now for where to eat a great cheeseburger on the big day in Palm Beach County, or dig in now and eat them all before the 18th, so you know which one to eat when national burger pride is on the line.

As one of America’s most iconic foods, there are countless theories as to the origin of cheeseburger, dating back as far as the 1920s. Lionel Sternberger claimed to have invented the cheeseburger in 1926, while working at his father’s sandwich shop, The Rite Spot, in California. But another restaurant, Kaelin’s, located in Kentucky, swore they were the first to offer the cheeseburger in 1934.

The founder of Steak n’ Shake also applied for the trademark of the cheeseburger in the 1930s.

While the history and origin of the cheeseburger is hazy and up for debate, there’s no question that the cheeseburger is a mouthwatering and satisfying American classic.

Check out these amazing cheeseburgers at six Palm Beach County eateries.
