Summer is here and it’s the perfect time to bite into a juicy burger, but are you always left wanting more? Even the most well-dressed burgers can feel incomplete without a side, which is about eight ounces.
Whether you’re visiting one of our Burger Republic locations or grilling at home, you can’t forget the additional dishes. Burger toppings can build a good burger but they don’t always offer enough for the pallet. A well-balanced meal includes the best sides for burgers that offer texture, flavor, and appealing aromas.
If you’re interested in learning about the best burger side dishes, keep reading below!
Tots
Instead of ordering the most obvious side fries, you can try something new at our restaurant. Tots are often overlooked but they offer more flavor and crunch than fries can provide.
Our Sweet Potato Tots are a favorite since they’re sweet, salty, and crunchy. You can dip these tots into condiments or enjoy them on their own. For more flavor, you can order the Truffle Tots, which are topped with fondue cheese and spices.
If you prefer spicy over sweet, check out our Nashville Hot Tots at Burger Republic. Our team can cook them up for you at any of our four locations in Nashville, Mt. Juliet, Gulch, and Lennox Village!
Pepperoni Cheese Curds
Did you know that pizza is the most popular food, while burgers fall into third place? If you’re craving a burger, but don’t want to sacrifice cheesy, marinara bites, stop by Burger Republic!
At Burger Republic, you can snack on our Pepperoni Cheese Curds while we cook your burger to perfection. These Wisconsin cheese curds are topped with fried pepperoni, parsley, sauce, and parmesan cheese. Since the cheese curds aren’t too large, you won’t be full by the time your burger arrives.
If cheese curds aren’t your thing, Benton’s Mac and Cheese is another great option. The ooey-gooey cheese will melt in your mouth and pair perfectly with any burger.
Loaded French Fries
Are you always on the search for the best fries? At Burger Republic, you can bite into some of the most flavorful crisps.
Benton’s Garlic Bacon fries are loaded with delicious toppings that you won’t want to stop eating. We recommend dipping them into ranch, but there are plenty of other options to consider. Make sure you tell your waiter if you want your fries to come out with appetizers or your burger!
Chef’s Vegetables
You can put the main salads to the back of your mind while ordering a burger and a side of vegetables. At Burger Republic, we offer the Chef’s Vegetable, which features a variety of seasonal options.
The great thing about the Chef’s Vegetable is that it isn’t overwhelmed with seasoning and butter. You can still appreciate the fresh flavors and textures of veggies while biting into a juicy burger.
