Once upon a time, Hamburger Mary’s was the funkiest burger joint in the city. Then, upscale types would come to this friendly, biker-bar with quirky decor (cream for coffee is dispensed from baby bottles with the nipples cut off) to sample the generous portions of hand-cut fries, juicy hamburgers (among the best in the city), and grilled sandwiches. Now, the atmosphere feels a little tired, but the late hours are a definite attraction and the food is as good as ever. And, if you want to check out the newest in tattoos or body-piercing design, this is the place to go. If you try out Hamburger Marys, you’ll find a restaurant that serves you an American fare where it’s common to order burgers.
