The charming streets of Doylestown include this family-friendly, down-to-earth burger shop that has a thoughtful, expansive menu for an array of customers.  It offers

• Gluten-free hot dogs and hamburger rolls, which are increasingly accessible in grocery stores but rarely in restaurants

• Asherah vegan patties and a variety of veggie and black bean burgers for the vegan and vegetarian crowd

• Hormone free ground beef for those who have been influenced by the documentary Food, Inc.  or your own education on the processing of our foods.

• Nathan’s hot dogs for the non-burger customer, and anyone who has experienced a NY-made-popular Nathan’s hot dog.

• "Build your own" and “house” featured burgers for the adventurous, topping-lovers like me, served on a beautiful roll.

• Ice cream and shakes for the one-stop experience, convenient for families with young children.

• And my favorite feature of Basically Burgers’ location besides the charming owners and friendly staff:   the chalkboard wall—definitely a magnet for the kids…what an ingenious idea—an instant babysitter for parents, while providing us with wall art and a view of the young artists of the future.

Our meal came to $19.19 for a beverage, sweet potato fries, black bean burger with toppings and a house special, the port mushroom burger. 

Will we return?  It’s a definite first option when we take a trip to Doylestown.  Ideal for a simple but delicious family dinner, or a convenient lunch-break during jury duty or work for Bucks County locals.
