Smashburger Opens at Marple Crossroads Shopping Center

NEW SMASHBURGER OPENS AT MARPLE CROSSROADS AUGUST

Restaurant Will Offer Local Residents A Better Burger, Made To Order From

100% Certified Angus Beef®, Smashed And Seared To Perfection

(August 8, 2016) —Smashburger, the nation’s fastest growing “better burger” restaurant, brings its fresh approach to burgers when it opens its newest restaurant at Marple Crossroads Shopping Center on Monday, August 8, 2016 at 10:00am.

Smashburger’s legendary offerings include juicy burgers that are smashed fresh and served delicious, along with Häagen-Dazs® shakes, tempting sides and regional menu items crafted to please local palates. The Marple Crossroads Smashburger will feature a menu created with local flavors and tastes in mind, including the “Philly Smashburger” topped with grilled onions, Cheez Whiz and Gulden’s Mustard, served on a pretzel bun.

“We’re excited to bring Smashburger’s better burger to Marple Crossroads Shopping Center,” commented Delaware County resident and co-owner Kevin Murphy. “With a broad menu of handcrafted burgers, chicken, salads, signature sides and handspun shakes, Smashburger has something for everyone and we are proud to be opening a location in this area.”

At Smashburger, the secret is in the smash. It starts with 100-percent fresh, never frozen, Certified Angus Beef® and is smashed on a 400-degree flat grill to sear in the juicy flavor. To further the “better burger” experience, the burgers are served on a toasted artisan bun and topped with a selection of the freshest produce, real cheeses, and highest-quality condiments.

Smashburger’s signature recipes and create-your-own burgers are smashed fresh, served delicious every time. But Smashburger is more than just burgers. Customers at the new Marple Crossroads location can also enjoy a selection of tender marinated grilled or crispy chicken sandwiches, and fresh tossed signature salads, along with a variety of irresistible sides including rosemary and garlic–seasoned Smashfries, fried pickles, Haystack Onions, and Veggie Frites (flash-fried and seasoned carrot sticks and green beans). The restaurant will also serve a selection of beverages including hand-spun Häagen-Dazs® shakes and Stewart’s® root-beer floats in frosted mugs.

“This is our second location in Delaware County, and we look forward to becoming part of the community,” says Murphy. “We hope local residents will come by our new restaurant to meet our team, try a Smashburger, and discover the flavor difference for themselves.”

This is the 7th Smashburger owned by Kevin Murphy and co-owners Dan O’Shaughnessy, Dan Hill and Gene Giordano. They also own Smashburger locations in New Jersey (Delran, Glassboro, Maple Shade and Marlton) as well as in Malvern, PA and in Radnor, PA.

The new Smashburger is located at Marple Crossroads Shopping Center. The address is 400 S. State Road, Springfield, PA.
