Sure it’s easy to swing by a drive-thru for some greasy burgers. But your taste buds will thank you for passing up those golden arches in favor of a more comforting and nostalgic take on the American classic. At first glance the Tavern Cheeseburger ($9) may seem simple: a 1/3-pound of fresh Black Angus beef with American cheese, lettuce, pickles and tomato. But when sandwiched between a toasted brioche bun, those iconic flavors mingle with the bun’s rich, eggy interior for one hearty, memorable bite after another. A heaping side of hand-cut fries, served hot and crispy, rounds out the tasty experience. Pro tip: This deal gets even better on Tuesdays when the burger drops to $6, making it one happy meal we can’t pass up. Also Try: Spice things up with the Cajun shrimp tacos ($9) topped with a bright tequila-lime salsa, avocado, jicama and a tangy cilantro-lime cream. Find amusement in the Fun Guy Philly ($8) sandwich, a toasted hoagie packed with portabella and button mushrooms, roasted garlic and herb-buttered sauteed onions and peppers, Swiss cheese and frizzled onions. 1109 Starkweather Ave., Cleveland, 216-937-1938, prosperitysocialclub.com
