Battle for Chicago’s Best: Kuma’s Corner

Elliott Bambrough’s metal music dreams come true with our burger battle winner in Avondale.

[@JoeCnNd]

Kumas corner is the best burgers I've ever had. I hit them up once a week in Indianapolis, then go to tappers and throw down on some classic arcades. Perfect night for me. If we didn't have one here I'd hit up Chicago once a month. The fact of the crazy concoctions they make for burgers and they all work.

[@Bestfriend-650]

I have been to Kuma's so many times, even their joint in Indy and I have to say by far the best place to have burger. Though during rush hours, it takes time to get seated and served but the servers at their place are one of the best I have ever experienced. Very friendly, not rushing at all, always there to make recommendation and even though I do not listen to heavy metal, I love the atmosphere there and somehow heavy metal just suits the vibe of the place. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is in Chicago, def worth a try.

Visited the Kuma's Corner in Schamburg IL. The Kuma Burger is as advertised. Looked just as good as on the show and tasted better. Defiantly not from frozen!

"people said we wouldn't succeed in lincoln park." aaaaaaaand it's closed.

[@actorben]

Not the one on Belmont!?

[@blackbird7048]

We're coming back.....

[@DoomSlayer288]

Best burgers I've ever had. Went here in March before seeing cannibal corpse.

[@Tnakamura11]

"kuma" stands for bear in Japanese.

[@zeffiremusic]

got my favorite joke shirt in hokkaido and it says kuma (in the puma font), and a bear standing and roaring

[@mattthomas1217]

I've only been to the schaumberg place a few times but best burger I've ever had

[@PublicEnemy04]

"Thank you sir" Man, what a mood killer.

[@captaintrejackit4164]

Where Kumas waffle burger though, my fav.

[@Archangel112]

This place looks awesome!! \m/,

[@organs]

Dude, you have no idea!

[@Archangel112]

You've been? I'm in the UK and every place is generic as fuck!!

[@organs]

I'm just in the suburbs of Chicago. I go often enough for most of the bartenders to know me by my order. The original on 2900 W Belmont is the best one to visit, and it is truly awesome. They also have whiskey and bourbon on tap.

[@MarkMonforti]

Yeah I never have burger in UK. Cut with mutton then over cooked to get the gamyness of the mutton out then add mayo to try and save the overcooked meat.

[@MarkMonforti]

Exactly I took three different bands here (One from Italy One from Norway and one from west coast US) in 10 days. They all loved it.

[@jernigan007]

my kinda burger

[@ericswearingenmusic9967]

kumas is the best burger on earth. I’ve been to most of the locations. Indy is actually my favorite.. go there every year during gen con

[@The.Original.Potatocakes]

Make sure you ask for ranch with your vegan burger

[@vaevictis_]

They probably serve them now a days

[@evilkittiekat]

Not a metal fan but would like to try.

[@MarkMonforti]

Well so much for lincoln park I guess people we right.

[@WarChortle]

Goose beer pan and jump clip shots.. much subtlety on sponsorship.

[@lgd1974]

WarChortle well, considering that Goose Island is a Chicago brand, why WOULDN'T Kuma's Corner ownwrship support a fellow local business?

[@eldodieseltuneauto8163]

if they only knew what kuma stands for in Swahili

[@Al3xTrucho20]

Why does the patty look like it was previously frozen.

[@RamiPapas]

Because it was?

[@RenegadeTimes]

I wonder how people with cow rings in their nose look in retirment homes. Made me laugh.

[@xVxviper94xVx]

Kumas is top notch I think they should definitely check out Lockdown though same great atmosphere the burgers though surpass kumas

[@ivanb4681]

xVxviper94xVx lockdown is Kuma's light. Also, their Mac and cheese is garbage. Cruelty to animals is awesome though

[@organs]

They have a few good burgers, but Kuma's has 'em beat. I like the Cruelty to Animals and Outlaw at Lockdown, but compared to the Black Sabbath and Pantera? Forget it.

[@bobd9116]

This is the most overhyped place in Chicago, burger is OK, toppings usually bland.

[@BadmanPictures]

3:05 using a can of chemicals, sorry kuma, thats not chicagos best material

[@stansidorowicz8320]

A bunch of degenerates at kumas corner

[@robertogarcia-zh3ed]
