Bleecker, recently named No.1 in World’s 101 Best Burger Places 2026, is marking National Burger Day on Thursday 27 August with the launch of a one-day-only special, The Minetta Tavern Burger, alongside 20% off all burgers ordered in person. Inspired by one of New York City’s most iconic burger institutions, the limited-edition burger features two Bleecker beef patties, caramelised onions, cheddar cheese and house sauce, served in Bleecker’s sesame-seeded bun.

Minetta Tavern has been a Greenwich Village fixture since 1937 and was revived by restaurateur Keith McNally in 2008. Its burgers have since become some of the most talked-about in New York.

The idea for Bleecker’s 2026 National Burger Day special came after founder Zan Kaufman visited Minetta Tavern in New York earlier this summer. After trying the original, they returned to London wanting to create Bleecker’s own homage to the New York institution.

The Minetta Tavern Burger will be available for one day only on Thursday 27 August across all Bleecker locations, including Bleecker at Seven Dials Market, and only while stocks last.

To celebrate National Burger Day, Bleecker will also be offering 20% off all burgers ordered in person on the day. Customers will need to sign up in advance via the Bleecker website to receive the offer.
