CHATTANOOGA, TN — The most delicious week of the year is officially around the corner. Starting next Monday, April 6th, Chattanooga Burger Week returns for a city-wide celebration of culinary creativity. For seven days, foodies can explore the Scenic City’s vibrant dining scene with exclusive, gourmet burgers priced at just $8. Produced with community engagement in mind, Burger Week invites consumers to step outside their comfort zones and try unique creations from the city’s top chefs.
An All-Star Restaurant Lineup This year features an expansive roster of participating locations, ranging from classic burger joints to upscale eateries and international kitchens. The 2026 lineup includes local favorites such as:
● Zaya Korean Steakhouse, Agave & Rye, The Bitter Alibi, Jack Brown’s Beer & Burger Joint, Hi-Fi Clydes, Five Wits Brewing Co., Nic & Norman’s, Oddstory Brewing Co., Ruth’s Chris Steak House, The Tap House & Empyreal Brew Pub, and many more.
The Burger Week App: Eat Your Way to Prizes To navigate the week, fans are encouraged to head to chattanoogaburgerweek.com and download the Chattanooga Burger Week App (available on iOS and Android). The app serves as a digital passport, allowing users to:
● Browse the full list of participating restaurants and their specific burger creations.
● Map out a custom “burger route” across the city.
● Earn Points: By checking in at restaurants, users earn points toward the “Biggest Burger Lover in Chattanooga” title.
● Win Big: App users with 250+ points are entered to win the Grand Prize, featuring $400 in restaurant gift cards, Common House day passes, and exclusive burger swag.
Dining with a Purpose: Chattanooga Area Food Bank Partnership This year, the festival is once again partnering with the Chattanooga Area Food Bank (CAFB). While diners enjoy $8 burgers, they are encouraged to “share the love” by donating $8 to CAFB—an amount that provides groceries for 20 meals to neighbors in need.
The “Sip to Support” Whiskey Program For every Chattanooga Whiskey cocktail ordered alongside a Burger Week burger at participating locations, Chattanooga Whiskey will donate $1 directly to the Chattanooga Area Food Bank. It’s the perfect way for diners to pair a local spirit with a local burger while supporting a vital cause.
