BurgerFi recently announced it will return to New York with a new concept location in the city this December. The chain’s previous New York location, launched in 2013, was permanently closed during the pandemic.

The Fort Lauderdale, Florida-based burger chain’s new Upper East Side location, at 2,400 square feet, will be a Better Burger Lab experience offering Angus beef, fresh sides, draft beer, and frozen custard desserts. In addition, the space will also offer a yet-to-be-announced lineup of limited-edition menus, tastings, and other items not available at any other location.

“As a born and raised New Yorker, reopening our Manhattan location is a personal passion point for me,” said Carl Bachmann, CEO of BurgerFi International,in a release. “We will have a late-night menu to make sure we are meeting the needs of our guests… The Burger Lab will create a unique experience [for them].” Source: by Teresa Buyikian.
