Four places for burgers with a Lawrenceville address: Village Burger and McCray's Tavern downtown, plus Culver's on Scenic Highway and Applebee's on Duluth Highway.

Last checked Oct. 6, 2026. Refreshed every three months.

Two of Lawrenceville’s burger places are downtown on Perry Street, a block from the historic courthouse square. The other two are chain restaurants on the highways: Culver’s on Scenic Highway and Applebee’s on Duluth Highway.

How we made this list. We started from OpenStreetMap records with a Lawrenceville address, the same data behind our local directory, and checked each place against its own website on Oct. 6, 2026. Hours are exactly as each website publishes them. BurgerFi on Duluth Highway appears in OpenStreetMap, but the chain’s site lists no Lawrenceville restaurant, so it is left off. The McDonald’s on Pleasant Hill Road and the Burger King on Cruse Road also appear there; their location pages would not load for us, so they are not listed this time. The list is alphabetical. It is not a ranking or a recommendation, and nobody paid to be on it. Run one of these places? Write to us to correct your entry.

The places

Applebee’s on Duluth Highway is the grill and bar chain’s Lawrenceville restaurant. Its location page names burgers, steaks, boneless wings and shareable appetizers, and it is open later than anything else on this list.

Culver’s on Scenic Highway S serves ButterBurgers and frozen custard, with a Flavor of the Day posted on its location page. It lists lobby dining, curbside pickup and a drive-thru, and the page names the franchise owner who runs it.

McCray’s Tavern on North Perry Street is listed in the city’s downtown business directory. Its OpenStreetMap record tags it as a burger and American restaurant with outdoor seating. Its website has a browser check that stopped our visit on Oct. 6, so we could not confirm its hours. The phone number comes from our directory record.

Village Burger on South Perry Street is one of seven Village Burger restaurants in the Atlanta area, from Dunwoody and Tucker to Woodstock and Cumming. Its Lawrenceville location takes online orders and sells gift cards through its website. It shares a building with Magazzino Delle Pizza.
