UCF students lined up outside the door to try the new UCF-area BurgerFi, which opened up on Wednesday.
BurgerFi, located in the Plaza at University retail shops, joins the many retail shops that have been opening up in the retail area below the student apartments.
Burger options include the Breakfast All Day Burger, which has American cheese, hickory bacon drizzled with maple syrup, fried egg, hash browns, grilled diced onions and ketchup. Another option is Brisket Burger with aged ground brisket, Swiss cheese, blue cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles and the signature BurgerFi Sauce.
BurgerFi is a Florida-based chain that has since expanded to 20 states since its creation in Delray Beach. They have broken off from the traditional drive-thru fast food chain, moving more towards an upscale fast food restaurant, specializing in fresh ingredients and order at the counter meals.
Burgers range from $5.97 for the BurgerFi Burger with cheese to $9.97 for the Brisket Burger.
