On Father’s Day, there’s always a ton of pressure to take Dad to the best steakhouse in town (and rightfully so.) However, not all dads want to put on a pair of dress shoes to celebrate their special day. Some dads are just down for a great burger and fries – and luckily, we certainly that covered here in Bethesda. 

If you’re on the hunt to find the best burger spot in the city to take Dad to on Sunday, June 19, check out these Bethesda burger joints near your Elm apartment for everything from a classic cheeseburger to a vegan black bean burger.
