About 1090 Burger

Swan Street regulars head straight to 1090 Burger for beef seared down to a deep, lacy crunch—tucked into toasted milk buns. Better than fast-food grease, minus the gastropub markup. Richmond crowds stick to an unwritten order: double beef, hot salted fries, and a cold craft tin or thick salted caramel shake. Eat at the diner counter inside or get it wrapped for the park down the road.

  • Crisp Smash Patties: Beef patties seared hard on the flat top for charred, crunchy edges, served on warm toasted milk buns.
  • Loaded Sides & Shakes: Hot shoestring fries, crunchy onion rings, loaded thunder fries, and thick salted caramel milkshakes.
  • Chicken & Veggie Options: Handmade vegetarian patties and fried chicken burgers provide reliable alternatives to the classic beef stacks.
