Santa Cruz Restaurant Week and Good Times, sister publication of the Press Banner, have announced the ninth annual Santa Cruz Burger Week: 12 days of burger love, as only Santa Cruz can do it.
The spinoff of Santa Cruz Restaurant Week, the Burger Week concept is simple: Each participating restaurant can offer one or more specially priced burgers at price points of $15, $18 or $20. It may be à la carte or include sides.
This event is an opportunity for local chefs to debut a new burger or introduce more customers to their favorite or most popular burgers. Burgers may be beef, chicken, lamb, fish, portobello, vegetarian, vegan—or whatever a chef might create. There are plant-based options too.
Santa Cruz Burger Week shines a spotlight on the local food culture in Santa Cruz County, allowing restaurateurs and chefs to showcase their individuality and creative talents, and diners to try a new restaurant or new menu item for the first time.
A list of participating restaurants and their featured burgers is regularly updated on SantaCruzBurgerWeek.com through the Feb. 25 cutoff. Good Times’ Santa Cruz Burger Week issue will be published on Feb. 25.
Visitors to the site can learn about participating restaurants, make reservations, sign up for email alerts and follow Santa Cruz Restaurant Week on Instagram. Giveaways for gift certificates to participating restaurants are held daily on Santa Cruz Restaurant Week’s Instagram page.
