Ann's Snack Bar

Atlanta


'Miss Ann' Price, who started Ann's in 1974 and lost a battle with breast cancer 41 years later, was a true Atlanta culinary legend. You didn't cross Ann. You didn't break her rules. Of course, that made her internationally known Ghetto Burger (it has been called the world's greatest by numerous critics on numerous occasions) all the more satisfying.

The burger – the messiest, most ridiculous double-stack of beef topped with ketchup, mustard, chili, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, cheese, deep-fried bacon and special seasonings you could ever imagine – lives on at this Kirkwood dive.
