In the story, they allude to his love of pretzels as part of the reason why he enjoys this particular Illinois restaurant.

Guy Fieri’s Pretzel Obsession Is Real

Fieri has shown that he tends to side with most dishes that incorporate some sort of pretzel, which has proven true over the years on Triple D.

So it should not be surprising that the legendary Kuma's Corner, where burgers are served on pretzel buns, is one of Fieri's favorite joints.

Chowhound:

Fieri was enamored with the pretzel roll burger sold at Chicago's own Kuma's Corner, which come with a loaded patty topped with chili, pepper jack cheese, and spices. This sandwich alone made Kuma's stand out as one of Guy Fieri's favorite Midwest restaurants.

This Illinois Burger Joint Made the Cut

Yelp users like Amit K. agree, saying, "It does not get better. Cool, great food, good music, and pretzel buns."

Lucky for us, there are a couple of different Kuma's locations where we can get those tasty pretzel bun burgers:

  • 2900 West Belmont Avenue in Chicago
  • 1570 East Golf Road in Schaumburg

Why Kuma’s Corner Stands Out

So, if you're craving a burger with a serious attitude and a soft, salty twist, Guy Fieri says Kuma's has you covered.
