Delco Restaurant's Burger Among Philly Area's Best: Inquirer

FOLSOM, PA — Who doesn't love a good burger? Well, many people presumably, but burgers are one of the most American food items of all time. And a Delaware County spot serves a burger better than countless others, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Food critics Craig LaBan, Michael Klein, and Jillian Wilson recently published a list of the "Best burgers in Philly to eat right now" in the Inquirer.

"Philadelphia has many great burgers, but we have some clear favorites, ranging from an off-menu, secret burger to patties from an old-school spot that has been serving burgers for nearly 100 years," they write.

Among the places featured on the list is a popular Folsom restaurant.

The three chose to feature Folsim's Charlie’s Hamburgers on the list.

Here's that they said about Charlie's burgers:

Charlie’s Hamburgers, the Delco throwback to elemental slider comfort that dates to 1935, has long been a reluctant holdout to the “in” burger of now, whatever “in” might be at the time (things like truffle-topped burgers and crab-topped burgers both had their moment at other burger joints). Their old-school griddle powers result in greasy, beefy little patties, all stacked up in crumbly burgers tucked inside their griddle-crisped buns. The Bunny, Charlie’s, and Peg special combos have transcended the shop’s 2019 move from Kedron Avenue and not lost one ounce of their charm.
