Lennys Burgers

If you’re craving a throwback, Lennys hits the spot. This old-school burger joint serves up no-nonsense classics with a side of nostalgia. The double cheeseburger is messy in the best way, thanks to two all-beef patties covered in American cheese and 1000 Island dressing. And the chili cheese fries? Totally worth it.

Cold Beers & Cheeseburgers

Right by the water, Patent 139 combines house-brewed beers with Arizona flair (yes, the name nods to the avocado patent). Their Origin Burger is a flavor-packed masterpiece—think a generous helping of Hass avocado, smoked cheddar, thick-cut bacon, and a killer house “shoosh” sauce. This is definitely one of the more unique hamburger places in Chandler AZ.
