A for-rent sign arrived last week at 168 Avenue B between 10th Street and 11th Street … bringing an odd little saga to an end for Burgers on B.
Then, out of nowhere, Burgers on B was back open in late October, and with a new Instagram account.
Several readers emailed us about it. New owners? Same owners? Some kind of burger-based resurrection?
Let's back up for a moment.
Burgers on B announced its closure this past Aug. 1 after two-plus years in business.
Then, out of nowhere, Burgers on B was back open in late October, and with a new Instagram account.
We tried to follow up multiple times over the next few days and nights to see what was happening. But the gate was always down — and then it was never heard from again, either on Instagram or IRL.
As far as we could tell, Burgers on B 2.0 lasted 2-3 nights before disappearing once more.
Adjacent business owners were curious and confused. Ditto for the original BoB owners — one of whom said: "I don't have [a] clue" who the new operators are.
Anyway, the original Burgers on B was solid.
Can't say the same for BoB 2.0 … which came and went faster than a late-night order of fries.
