Double cheeseburger at Blue Collar

Superlative West Coast–style burgers arrived in Williamsburg last summer, thanks to this retro canteen from the folks behind Miller’s Tavern. The double packs a beefy punch: Smashed on the flattop to achieve a deeply browned crust with locked-in juices, it’s cloaked in American cheese and a mayo-based special sauce, then tucked into a soft Martin’s potato bun. Balancing the blissfully greasy gluttony are simple, fresh toppings of thick red tomato slices, onion, pickles and romaine. Prices match the roadside-shack vibe—a double cheeseburger and fries will only set you back ten bucks. 160 Havemeyer St between South 2nd and 3rd Sts, Williamsburg, Brooklyn (347-725-3837). $6.25.
