Bill Volz's Westchester

Dec 8, 2022

Grabbing a bite to eat on your own or with your friends from the same go-to places may start to get stale. Perhaps you’re looking for a new place that gives you something extra special from the first bite. There are so many places that sell cheeseburgers in the city, but our team at Bill Volz Westchester found what we think are the five best cheeseburgers in Westchester County for you to taste and determine for yourself if they’re the best.

The Blazer Pub

The Blazer Pub is about a 40-minute drive from Cortlandt in North Salem, New York. This pub recently won the title of the best burger in Westchester County in 2022. When you eat a burger here, you’re eating fresh, unfrozen ground beef that the kitchen staff hand-makes into patties. From there, they use a cooking combination of flat top and broiler. You can have your burger cooked rare, medium, or well done.
