The manager, who made very lit- tle information about the closing available, did not reply to efforts for comment, so patrons of the burger joint can’t do much more than reflect upon their memories. Quickie Burger opened in 2008 at State and Hill streets. Situated near plenty of student housing, it quickly became a popular burger joint among University of Michigan students. Some of Quickie Burger’s busiest days were Saturday home football games when thousands of passing tailgaters would stop to grab food. Quickie Burger was not the most critically acclaimed burger place in Ann Arbor, but it was still able to attract lines out the door. In a 2009 MLive food review, Alan Warren wrote Quickie Burger had inherent appeal despite tough competition. “Don’t get us wrong,” War- ren wrote. “If we were a college student looking for a reasonably cheap, post-bar feed chased with a Pabst Blue Ribbon, or, say, a Jaeger Bomb, we’d likely be in line with the rest of the students at 2 a.m.” Alongside other late-night hot spots, Quickie Burger held its own. Students flocked to the restaurant for pitchers of beer and stacked burgers, both before and after going out. Quickie Burger was a lively place that many students remember fondly. Information rising senior Miguel Martinez found Quickie Burger before his first year at the University and was impressed with what the burger joint had to offer. “A friend introduced me to Quickie one day during freshman orientation,” Martinez said. “They asked me if I wanted their secret sauce with my burger and I was conflicted but my friend urged me to try it, along with their sig- nature fries. Needless to say, I was floored.” Others, like Engineering ris- ing senior Jonatan Hervoso, who shared his thoughts in an email interview with The Daily, found Quickie Burger to be a place of con- venience and tradition. “I heard about quickie burger (sic) for the first time during my freshman year and a few friends and I started going pretty fre- quently after rugby practice,” Her- voso wrote. Quickie Burger had a signature vibe. There was no divider between the cash register and the kitchen, revealing the cooks flipping burg- ers and working the fryers. Beer taps lined the wall alongside a row of liquor. Stools sat across from the register counter, facing the window along State Street. One might not see it at first, but around the corner there were stairs that led down to a basement with table seating and televisions in each corner of the room. According to Quickie Burger patrons, the restaurant was small but friendly. It was often boisterous but still a great place to eat a burger and have some fun with friends, Quickie Burger fans told The Daily. Quickie Burger was not fine dining, but never set out to be. “There wasn’t much that I dis- liked other than maybe the clean- liness of the bathrooms,” Hervoso wrote. “However I always appreci- ated quickness of service and qual- ity of food, again cheap but good.” Now the building sits empty and quiet, with cardboard taped to the inside of the windows. No more burgers will be flipped or pitchers of beers consumed in the crowded basement. For many, it is a sad sight, and there is no doubt many students will be caught off guard without the State Street staple upon their return this fall. Most patrons of Quickie Burger were unaware of the initial closing. For Martinez, it was surprising and saddening news. Read more at MichiganDaily.com
