I passed by Sai Organics yesterday and saw that a new burger joint called Petey's Burger will open next door. What a contrast--organic food v. burgers/Americana! There aren't too many details to report yet except that their logo and design is funky, contemporary and seems to differentiate itself from the Burger Kings and the Mickey-D's. Their tagline is playful yet informative - "A Fresh Touch on an Old Favorite." You can currently sign up for their mailing list on www.peteysburger.com but that's about it for the website--it's not up and running yet.
I'll keep an eye out and let you know when Petey's opens--it's facade has definitely piqued my interest.
Petey's Burger - 30th Avenue and 30th Street, Astoria, NY 11102
How do you think a fresh burger joint will do in Astoria, particularly 30th Avenue? There seems to be not many around. Do you think it will do well in the community?
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean--there certainly is a shortage of these burger joints. Only time will tell how it will do but I'm actually really excited about it. The fact that there aren't that many around is a good thing--it's something new, something different. I think people are curious and are looking for something besides another Mediterranean cafe.
