Burg Alert: Burger Haven 'Pop-Up' Opens With Free Burgers to First 100 Guests
Pasadena's Haven Gastropub is opening a back-alley pop-up today, and to celebrate they're giving away free burgs to the first 100 guests. For those working in the Old Town Pasadena area, this quick-serve burger pop-up called Burger Haven may be a welcomed addition to the neighborhood. The event started at 11 a.m. and will continue on 'til 3 p.m.
Chef Greg Daniels will be offering an array of grass-fed, pasture-raised grinds including their lamb burger and popular Haven burger, which is made with pickled red onions, roasted red bell peppers, wild arugula, and funky St. Agur cheese.
Be sure to enter the pop-up burger shop on McCormick Alley, and grab a craft brew while you're at it. It'll make Monday much more pleasant.
