Boardwalk (Atlanta, GA)

6000 North Terminal Parkway, Concourse A, Atlanta, USA

 

Boardwalk is a fast food chain that started in 1981 and claims 100 locations in the US (as well as one in Canada, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia) as well as 250 locations “under development”. This Atlanta Airport location serves burgers, fries, fried chicken, and salads. It has some 8 different types of burgers, mostly classics, like Western and Southwest.

 

I get the Southwest Burger ($7.89) and a side of Regular Fries ($3.59). The Southwest Burger comes with two thin but crispy patties, lettuce, tomato, avocado, jalapeños and Chipotle sauce on a soft buttered bun (I didn’t take the pepper jack cheese). Although the jalapeños are from the jar, they and the sauce have a good kick, which is somewhat smoothened by avocado. It is overall a very good burger, a bit like Shake Shack (but more complex). The fries are a bit thicker and well prepared, quite tasty.

 

VERDICT: 86/100

Obviously expensive, because of the location, but in terms of quality a good upscale burger chain.
