Restaurant Review: BRGR

Last week it was one of my friend's birthday and his favorite restaurants are Mcdonalds and Wendys (no I'm not kidding ha) so we found this place while trying to find somewhere to take him for dinner!  I don't think anyone who lives in Pittsburgh reads my blog besides everyone who at this place with me ha but it was very delish! If you find something similar where you live GO!
We started off with Adult Milkshakes- yes milkshakes with booze in them <3



Salty Carmel Adult Milkshake



It was seriously one of the best things I have ever eaten.  Bourbon + salted carmel sauce + locally made vanilla bean ice cream = heavennnnnnnn

For the main course I got the "Fire in the Hole" Burger and the fries with truffle cheese whiz yummmmm

fries with parmesan and herbs

burger with guac, jalapenos, chipotle mayo, and pepper jack cheese
Everything was amazing and we all left with full, happy bellies. If you want to check out the menu here it is.

PS I wasn't compensated in any way for this, just sharing the love of nums!
