Whether you\u2019re rolling through a drive-through to grab some dinner on the go or sitting down for a proper happy meal with your partner, fast food can create some of the most memorable moments of your time together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We wanted to get insight into what couples enjoy eating on those summer drive-through dates and how those preferences change regionally, so we set out to find the most popular fast-food burger restaurants and menu items in every state.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Most Popular Fast-Food Burger and Burger Restaurant in Every U.S. State<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"flourish-embed flourish-map\" data-src=\"visualisation\/10203190\"><script src=\"https:\/\/public.flourish.studio\/resources\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In all of our research, there were only three states whose favorite fast-food restaurant matched up with their favorite fast-food burger. Arizona and Nevada, two of the few states with In-N-Out locations, love an Animal Style Burger and a Double-Double from In-N-Out, respectively, like no other. And, no surprise here, Texas has an affinity for Whataburger\u2019s Patty Melt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hover over any state on the map above to see its favorite fast-food burger restaurant and menu item!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Most Popular Fast-Food Burger and Burger Restaurant in Every U.S. Region<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"801\" height=\"1806\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 801px) 100vw, 801px\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_1_RegionalMaps-3-1.png\" alt=\"A U.S. map showing the regional preferences of fast-food burgers\" class=\"wp-image-7075 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_1_RegionalMaps-3-1.png 801w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_1_RegionalMaps-3-1-133x300.png 133w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_1_RegionalMaps-3-1-170x384.png 170w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_1_RegionalMaps-3-1-768x1732.png 768w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_1_RegionalMaps-3-1-681x1536.png 681w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_1_RegionalMaps-3-1-380x857.png 380w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_1_RegionalMaps-3-1-800x1804.png 800w\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 801px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 801\/1806;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Locals remain loyal to the fast-food chains that originated in their areas. We aren\u2019t sure whether it\u2019s the delicious ButterBurger on a toasted bun or the frozen custard that keeps people coming back, but Culver\u2019s (originating in Sauk City, Wisconsin) is among the most popular fast-food burger spots in the Midwest. According to residents from Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, and Wisconsin, Culver\u2019s is the go-to spot for fast-food burgers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No surprises here: In-N-Out is the most popular fast-food burger joint in the Western U.S. The burger chain, founded in Baldwin Park, California, is a cultural phenomenon that\u2019s only found in select U.S. states, but its popularity reaches far beyond those borders. It\u2019s the most popular fast-food restaurant among residents in Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Nevada, and Utah, which is saying something, considering Hawaii and Idaho don\u2019t even have In-N-Out locations! West Coast locals love its burgers, signature sauce, and not-so-secret menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps it\u2019s the unlimited amount of peanuts or the mouthwatering burgers\u2026 You won\u2019t leave Five Guys hungry, but you might find yourself craving more. Five Guys comes in as the most popular fast-food restaurant in the North, South, and Midwest regions. Ranking in 29 states as the most preferred fast-food restaurant, it\u2019s obvious that Five Guys both dominates our map and is the true go-to fast-food burger joint nearly everywhere in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to specific fast-food burgers, there\u2019s a little more variation. The Midwest prefers Burger King\u2019s classic Whopper, Western U.S. states opt for the McDonald\u2019s Quarter Pounder, and down South, they most enjoy the Big Hardee Burger at Hardee\u2019s. The Northeast can\u2019t quite make up its mind, with a tie between the flagship sandwiches at Wendy\u2019s (Dave\u2019s Single), McDonald\u2019s (Quarter Pounder), and Burger King (Whopper). With new menu items coming out every week at many fast-food restaurants, it looks like people across the country still prefer the classics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Most Popular Fast-Food Burgers and Burger Restaurants Overall<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"801\" height=\"1025\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 801px) 100vw, 801px\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_2_TopOverall-3-1.png\" alt=\"A graphic showing the most popular fast-food burgers and restaurants overall\" class=\"wp-image-7076 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_2_TopOverall-3-1.png 801w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_2_TopOverall-3-1-234x300.png 234w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_2_TopOverall-3-1-300x384.png 300w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_2_TopOverall-3-1-768x983.png 768w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ShaneCo_Burgers_2_TopOverall-3-1-380x486.png 380w\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 801px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 801\/1025;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As has already been made evident, Five Guys is the most popular fast-food burger joint in the U.S., being the preferred option for residents in 29 different states. The second-most-popular place to get a burger is In-N-Out, which is quite the feat considering it\u2019s only available in seven states, as of 2020. Culver\u2019s and Whataburger round out our list, being home to the favorite fast-food burger of residents in five and three states, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s take a closer look at the most popular specific burgers at these locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The McDonald\u2019s Quarter Pounder is the top-searched burger in the United States, with nine states seeking out its four-ounce patties. The Big Mac is another signature McDonald\u2019s burger that ranks among those that are most popular. It consists of two burger patties, three sesame seed buns, and, of course, its famed Big Mac sauce. It\u2019s the third-most-popular burger in the United States, being searched for the most in Alaska, Washington, D.C., Maine, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two Burger King favorites are also well represented in this category. The first is the Whopper, coming in as the top-searched fast-food burger in a whopping eight states (Indiana, Michigan, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Dakota, and Tennessee). The second is a newer menu item, the Bacon King. This burger features two quarter-pound beef patties, cheese, and lots of bacon. It is the most searched in Mississippi, Nebraska, and New Hampshire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hardee\u2019s wasn\u2019t kidding when they said \u201cMore Meat, More Cheese, Less Money.\u201d Designed to compete against burgers such as the Big Mac and the Whopper, Hardee\u2019s introduced the Big Hardee Burger. The burger features three beef patties and two slices of cheese on a 4-inch bun. The Big Hardee Burger placed fourth among the top fast-food burgers in the U.S. and was ranked the most popular in Iowa, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Methodology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To find the most popular fast-food restaurants and menu items across the country, we first surveyed Americans from every state (over 2,000 in total) asking them which fast-food restaurant has the best burger. The survey took place over a week in April 2022. We then compiled a list of 90 named burgers from fast-food restaurant menus and analyzed Google Trends data from April 2021 to April 2022 to see which specific fast-food burgers people have been searching for most frequently. The keywords we analyzed included favorites such as Burger King\u2019s \u201cWhopper,\u201d the McDonald\u2019s \u201cBig Mac,\u201d and the Wendy\u2019s \u201cBaconator.\u201d Combining the survey results and search data, we found each state\u2019s favorite fast-food restaurant and favorite burger bite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Closing Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We here at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/\">Shane Co.<\/a> understand that everyone\u2019s love language is unique and that some individuals express their love through food.
