With Memorial Day squarely in our rearview and America 250 barreling towards us, you’d think we’d be burgered out by now, but you’d be sorely mistaken. No matter how many burger-centric holidays there are on the calendar, we’ll indulge in the piled-high, juicy chargrilled goodness every single time. The good news is, if you’re a burger fanatic like the rest of us, National Hamburger Day is coming up on Thursday, May 28.
That’s right, an entire day dedicated to the all-American classic, and to celebrate, your favorite burger joints are dishing out deals that’ll satisfy your cravings for a triple stack for good. At least, until the Fourth of July rolls around.
The Amazon Outlet has deals on home essentials you forget you need
Jack in the Box
Jack in the Box, along with the entire Jack’s family of restaurants, is offering guests $1 hamburgers at all locations from 2 p.m. to close. The offer is available in-store and online, with a limit of five hamburgers per order.
Shake Shack
Shake Shack has taken the burger-loving festivities even further this month by turning National Hamburger Day into an entire month of juicy deals and freebies. Every week this month, the brand has offered a different Shake Shack single burger for free with a $10 minimum purchase. Thursday’s deal is the classic ShackBurger, which features a custom-blend 100% Angus beef patty, melted American cheese, crisp green leaf lettuce, fresh Roma tomatoes and its tangy, not-so-secret ShackSauce. To take advantage of the promo, just use code FREEBURGER at checkout.
Arby’s
Although it’s not exactly known for its burgers, Arby’s is also jumping into the fray and offering a National Hamburger Day deal of its own: BOGO Arby’s sandwich favorites, including the Classic Roast Beef, Beef ’n Cheddar and Crispy Chicken sandwich. This one’s for anyone out there who’d rather have a loaded sando with au jus instead of a burger hot off the grill.
Sonic
Sonic is joining the burger-loving festivities by offering a free SONIC Smasher or All-American Smasher with a $5 purchase. Don’t forget to grab a Route 44 to wash it all down.
Burger King
Burger King wants you to have it your way on National Hamburger Day by giving Royal Perks members a free hamburger with any purchase of $3 or more at participating Burger King restaurants nationwide. You’ll only be able to snag the deal if you order exclusively through the Burger King app or website. Additionally, Burger King announced a new collaboration with Spotify that allows Royal Perks members who make a qualifying purchase of $10 to unlock up to four months of Spotify Premium at no additional cost.

To celebrate National Hamburger Day, Dairy Queen is offering fans $1 off any Signature Stackburger all week long. You can choose from the brand’s perfectly spiced FlameThrower Signature Stackburger or go for something more classic, like the Bacon Cheese Deluxe.
Checkers and Rally’s
Checkers and Rally’s is offering a limited-time BOGO deal to burger lovers to help commemorate the occasion. Starting May 27 through May 28, you can grab a Classic Burger and get a second one free. We’d say the second one is to share, but let’s be honest — it’s definitely not.
