Notable Picks

$$$ West Village
Corner Bistro is a classic West Village burger bar where griddled ½-lb patties, draft beer, and very late hours draw industry folks and neighborhood regulars. The Bistro Burger with bacon and American cheese is the move after midnight, when the room tilts toward standing-room-only but the kitchen keeps burgers coming until 4am on weekends.
Must-Try Dishes: Bistro Burger, Cheeseburger, Chili Burger
What makes it special: A bohemian-era tavern turning out hefty ½-lb burgers until 4am.
$$ West Village
Burgerhead is a charbroiled-burger specialist on Sixth Avenue serving double-char patties with classic toppings, beef-tallow fries, and thick shakes late into the night. Counter ordering, a compact dining room, and hours that stretch to 2am on weekends make it a reliable stop for post-bar burgers that still feel carefully cooked to order.
Must-Try Dishes: Double Charburger, Bacon Charburger, Chili Cheese Fries
What makes it special: Charbroiled patties with beef-tallow fries served past midnight.
$$$$ West Village
Tavern on Jane is a cozy corner tavern at Jane Street and Eighth Avenue where burgers, Cobb salads, and pub plates run straight through to 4am every night. Its turkey and beef burgers share the menu with fish and chips and other comfort dishes, making it a flexible late-night option for mixed groups who still want a real sit-down meal.
Must-Try Dishes: Turkey Burger, Lillian's Cobb Salad, Fish and Chips
What makes it special: A neighborhood tavern serving burgers and pub fare all the way to 4am.
$ Greenwich Village
Smacking Burger operates out of a Mobil station on Eighth Avenue, turning out crispy-edged smashburgers with house pickles, Smack Sauce, and loaded fries at picnic tables beside the pumps. It stays open until 1am on weekends, attracting neighborhood workers and burger obsessives for affordable, high-impact patties in a distinctly unpolished setting.
Must-Try Dishes: The Big Smack, The Truff Burger, Loaded Famous Fries
What makes it special: A serious smashburger counter hidden inside one of Manhattan’s last gas stations.

Worthy Picks

Must-Try Dishes: Double Smash Burger, Select Cut Aged Beef Burger, Cheeseburger Au Cheval
What makes it special: An 1880s tavern where the double smash burger matches the history.
