UPDATE: Our hearts are with all of those affected by the senseless act of violence that occurred this past weekend. We’ve discussed with many of the restaurants involved in Dayton Burger Week and they wish to continue the promotion in an effort to continue to bring the community together.
On behalf of the restaurants involved, we will be making a donation to the Dayton Oregon District Tragedy Fund. Details regarding that fund can be found here.
During CityBeat's Dayton Burger Week, take a 45-minute cruise up to Dayton/Centerville/Beavercreek for $5 specialty burgers from various restaurants from Aug. 5-11. Just like Cincinnati's Burger Week, these are gourmet offerings and off-menu specialties. Get four or more stamps on your official Dayton Burger Week passport, submit it and be entered to win an ultimate grill out from the Ohio Beef Council.
Here are some menu highlights. Find a full list of burgers and restaurants at daytonburgerweek.com.
