Stanley's Famous Hamburgers • 1932

The Stanleyburger—a thin, griddled patty piled with grilled onions and pickles—has anchored this Central Falls institution since 1932, when it opened as one of Rhode Island's earliest burger joints. The retro counter-service setup and rock-bottom prices haven't changed much in nine decades, drawing regulars from across the Blackstone Valley for fresh-cut fries and homemade chili. Step inside for a time-warped taste of Depression-era American lunch counter culture, still served fast and cheap.
