Spike Mendelsohn Next in Burger Boom


When the Apple Store opened in Center City it was hailed as a return of high-end retail to the shopping stretch. But what seems to be coming on the heels of Apple is burgers. Lots and lots of burgers.

A gigantic Five Guys opened on the 1100 block of Walnut in December. Now comes word that Top Chef’s Spike Mendelsohn is looking at looking at two properties along Walnut for his Good Stuff Eatery.

Also in the mix is O Burger which is opening its first location on South Street but already has eyes on Center City for two more locations. And this isn’t to mention the once hot rumor of an Elevation Burger opening on Walnut Street. And then of course there is the existing Five Guys,  500º, Village Whiskey, Good Dog and Rouge.
