Fred’s Meat & Bread, Inman Park (Krog Street Market)

The name of this place says it all while the long line will make you wonder what their secret is. For a little history the creator of this wonderful sandwich counter hails from The General Muir so one should not be surprised that this spot is quickly becoming an Inman Park favorite and Krog Street stand out. The Philly is huge so if you’re ravenous that would be a winner but if you’re only hungry the Stack Burger will certainly suffice and that it was I chose to have the first time I went along with the Garlic Fries, which came with homemade ranch dressing!! One order of fries were enough for my whole group so no need to double up unless you feel it necessary or prefer to over indulge in fried goodness. If you’ve eaten burgers around this city long enough you begin to see a pattern with ingredients and back stories but pay no attention or care that it really isn’t all that original since this burger was top-notch. And while I hate to compare its most similar to the illusive H&F burger but without the obnoxious Buckhead attitude. Although the wait will hinder some I’d highly recommend grabbing a beer at Hop City before choosing to stand in line!
