Wenatchee has plenty of places to grab a burger. Mission Burgers & Chicken is one of my favorites, and it’s the kind of spot that keeps locals coming back.

Founder Christian Mikkelsen grew up in Wenatchee and brought his culinary background home. He cures and smokes his own bacon and pastrami. The beef is locally sourced, and the buns come from Bosket Bread in Leavenworth. Even the seasonings and toppings are made in-house.

You can taste the effort. The smash burgers have crisp edges and a juicy center, and the chicken sandwiches are every bit as good.

The Specials Board

Locals know the real secret, though. Check the specials board. It’s packed with one-of-a-kind creations you won’t find on the regular menu, and they change. If you’re deciding what to order, start there.
