For those people, we say: You have choices in Edmonds to get your burger freak on.

: The store, which opened in May 2010, offers gourmet burgers and, more importantly for some, a full bar and a view of Puget Sound. The burgers are a little pricier here, but the store has plenty of aficionados who gladly pay a little extra for the yum-yum factor.

: The shop in the Westgate neighborhood seems to chance ownership frequently—they've just done it again—but one thing never changes: the quality of the burger. They are made fresh while you wait, so you will wait. The fries are spectacular, and the shakes are the best in town.

: Joe Bellingham's joint opened in last month, and he promises great burgers at a great price. It's a family affair, as Joe gets his buns from his next-door-neighbor, the Edmonds Bakery, which is run by Joe's father, Ken.

“We’re definitely not high end,” . “We are going with a cheaper menu. Right now, people don’t want to spend $9 on a burger. They want to spend $3 or $4 on a good burger. So we’re going to provide a good product at a low price.”

National chains , and are other options.

Even if you do plan to wait in line at Dick's today, its 3 p.m. opening means you might need lunch before that, right?
