A JUICY burger topped with lettuce, tomato and cheese served with fries, ketchup and mayonnaise – sounds like the perfect fast food.

But what makes a regular burger into something special?

Is it the burger itself or the choice of bun and toppings and sides?

You can put almost anything on top of a burger – fried egg, pulled pork, onion rings - which all add to the overall experience.

Where in Mid Cheshire serves the best burgers – restaurants, cafes or takeaway establishments?

Next Thursday is National Burger Day – a whole day dedicated to the tasty fast food – and to mark the occasion we want to know where you go for the best burger in area.

In our Best of 2023 campaign, we’ve given out 18 awards so far in Mid Cheshire for hair, nails and beauty, tattoos and independent shops, as well as pizza, dessert and cocktails and many more.

Voting is currently taking place to find Mid Cheshire’s Best Afternoon Tea, with the vote closing at midnight on Monday, August 21.

This week it’s burgers so who will win Mid Cheshire’s Best for Burgers 2023?

Tell us which of the area’s burger joints or burger venues should make our shortlist and then the overall winner will be decided by you, our readers.

Where is your favourite place to enjoy a burger?

HOW IT WORKS: 

Each Friday morning we will reveal new categories via our social media pages and ask you who is the best. Nominations will then close each Monday morning at 12pm.

Every Thursday we will publish a shortlist of finalists with voting officially opening.

You will be able to vote in one of three ways:

- By commenting under the relevant post on our Northwich and Winsford Guardian and Knutsford Guardian Facebook or Twitter pages = 1 vote

- By entering via the online article on our Northwich and Winsford Guardian and Knutsford Guardian website = 2 votes

- By entering via our Northwich and Winsford Guardian and Knutsford Guardian newspaper = 5 votes

The following Wednesday evening we will announce the winner of that category on social media.

Usual Newsquest competition rules apply.
