I moved to the Jersey Shore when I was about 6 years old and one of the things I remember was Burger Chef it was a popular burger joint which unfortunately doesn t exist any longer.
Burger Chef was in business from 1954 until it s ending in 1996, although I think any Jersey Shore locations were closed before 1996.
Burger Chef was a very popular burger chain, especially in the 70 s and 80 s. Featuring their Super Shef & Big Shef burgers along with their Fun Meal and the “works” bar so you could make you burger the way you wanted it.
