About

Bar: Beer & wine

Paul's Da Burger Joint stands out among East Village burger spots for its unchanged family-run operation since 1989. This retro 50's eatery serves up American classics like burgers and sandwiches in a casual, mixed-gay-straight setting. Checkered tablecloths and counter service set the tone, where regulars chat with cooks they know by name.

The current owner Matt started working here young before taking over from his cousin Paul. You can grab a beer and a burger in the cozy dining room or sit outside when weather permits. The Eastsider Burger is a specialty, loaded with bacon, ham, mushrooms, tomatoes, and onions. Hours run until late most nights, making it a solid stop for a no-fuss meal.
