Local Burger in Patchogue impresses with a diverse burger menu....

Local Burger in Patchogue (there is also a location in Bay Shore) is a real breath of fresh air in the rapidly expanding restaraunt scene in Patchogue.  The core of the menu is of course, burgers but somehow this does not limit the menu as their are a variety of combinations that can be created as there are a number of "sides" that can be added to the burger including sriracha aoli, fried egg, dill picle chips, maple mayo and even peanut butter.  They also offer Quinoa Burgers, Brisket Sandwiches, Gluten Free Buns as well as a variety of Hot Dogs and  fries.

One thing that elevates Local Burger is the excellent spirit and wine selection.  There "Local Manhattan" with Taconic Rye, Carpano Antica, bitters and black cherry splash is one of the best cocktails I have had on Long Island.  The restaurant also has the best Long Island red wine I have ever had from the Pumphouse Winery in Mattituck.  

The interior is cheerful with clever touches (the red neon cow most notably).  The crew is cheerful and efficient and there is a good happy hour.  Local Burger is fast becoming one of our favorites...
