Week-end Burgers

Week-end Burgers is a South End favorite on National Turnpike that serves smash-style burgers. Locals recommend it in burger threads, and it ranked among the Louisville area's highest-rated burger restaurants in 2025.

It is a good pick if you are in the South End and want a crispy-edged burger without heading into the Highlands. Order a double to get the most out of the crispy, seared edges that define the style. It is a casual, everyday kind of place, and the kind of local find that rewards anyone willing to explore beyond the usual neighborhoods.
