Signature Burger -Three Little Pigs

If you love New York Burger Bar, Babylon Burger Bar has a similar menu. Besides the Juicy Lucy, I highly suggest the The Three Little Pigs, an 8 ounce burger infused with bacon, topped with candied bacon, crispy pork belly, house BBQ sauce and an onion ring. Babylon Burger Bar’s milk shakes are InstaFamous, including their Oreo’s Cookies N’ Cream, S’mores, Red Velvet, ChipWich, but their most popular is their Sweet N’ Salt, with Pretzel Rods and chocolate candies, creating the perfect balance of sweet and salty.
