Not Ready to Wait in Line at Dick's? Here Are Other Burger Options in Edmonds

Hamburger Harry's, Herfy's and Main Street Burgers all have their fans.

opens in Edmonds for the first time at 3 p.m. today in Edmonds. This we know, and we're sure you do at this point, as well.

about the grand opening asked you: What is your plan of attack for the grand opening? It's an unscientific poll, for sure, but of the 94 responses, 73 chose "I think I will wait a while" (77 percent of the total vote) over the "I am going to be there as early as possible" and the "I will wait in line for however long it takes" options.

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?

That is true about Citypark being in a lot of shade. Where's the skateboard park? Possibly a spotRead More at Edmonds Marina Beach??

Cassy said on Facebook (sorry to those having trouble logging in today!): Would love to have aRead More splash pad and yes please move it so it is in the full sun. If you are going to have a splash pad we need to take advantage of the sunshine.

A splash pad would be great, but that space is so shady - maybe next to the skateboard park instead.Read More

If you want to know what it's like to have your religion disrespected, try having school camps,Read More orchestra and band concerts and back-to-school nights on the holiest of your religious holidays (equivalent to Christmas and Easter). Everyone knows that an egg hunt is an Easter event whether it's called that or not. Everyone know that a holiday tree is really a Christmas tree. Trust me, the atheists and/or non-Christians are not trying to destroy Christianity. First, it would be impossible. Second, it would be too dangerous to us personally. Last, I personally respect other's traditions, but I'm not sure the same can always be said in reverse.

Don't we have more important things to worry about? Easter Egg, Egg Hunt, who cares? It's a funRead More community event. And thank you to the sponsers that make this happen.

First of all, the government is not supposed to promote any religion. Secondly, the Easter bunnyRead More and egg hunt has no historical religious significance that I can think of, even though this is part of an American tradition. I am good with deleting the word Easter, and would like to see a departure from any emphasis on candy, which only compounds the diabetic epidemic in this country. Sometimes it is good to rethink the wisdom of something simply because it is a "tradition".
