Burger Boy

Progress update! 🔨🍔

We may be moving a little slower than we’d like, but we ARE moving!

❄️ The AC is FINALLY fixed! 🙌
💡 The new LED lighting is installed!
🚪 Two new exterior doors are being installed within the next week — which means that lovely “hole in the wall” feature will officially be a thing of the past. 😂

Little by little, this place is coming together and starting to feel more like Burger Boy every day.

It’s slow going, but it’s GOING, and right now, we’ll take every bit of progress we can get! ❤️

We still have plenty left to tackle, and for those who have asked how they can help, our GoFundMe is still up and running. Every donation helps us chip away at the repairs, equipment, and all those not-so-little expenses that come with getting these doors open. If donating isn’t in the cards, simply sharing it helps too. ❤️

Most of all, thank you for continuing to be patient with us, cheering us on, and reminding us why we’re working so hard to get Burger Boy back open! 🍔❤️

🚧 Progress report: We're officially in the not-so-glamorous phase of opening a restaurant...

💨 Mold remediation is underway. 📦 Supplies are starting to arrive.

It may not look like much yet, but every delivery, every repair, and every project completed gets us one step closer to firing up the grill again.

We know a lot of you have asked how you can help. If you'd like to be part of bringing Burger Boy back, our GoFundMe is still active. Every donation—big or small—goes directly toward repairs, equipment, and everything it takes to get these doors open again. If donating isn't possible, sharing our journey and cheering us on means just as much.

Thank you for sticking with us through every step. We can't wait to welcome everyone back home. ❤️🍔

Progress update! 🍔🔨

It's not much to look at yet... unless you're the type of person who sees potential where everyone else sees concrete dust. 😊

The last few days have been full of demo, cleaning, and making plans. Every wall we remove and every mess we clean up gets us one step closer to bringing Burger Boy back home.

We knew this location wasn't going to be move-in ready, but we also knew it was worth the work.

We can't thank this community enough for sticking with us through all of this. Your encouragement, messages, and excitement have kept us going on the long days.

For those who have asked how you can help, our GoFundMe is still open. Every donation goes directly toward repairs, equipment, and getting the new restaurant ready to open. If donating isn't possible, sharing our posts and cheering us on means just as much.
We're excited to keep showing you the transformation. One day at a time, we're building the next chapter of Burger Boy

❤️ We can't wait to serve you all again.

The day we've been waiting for is finally here...

WE SIGNED THE LEASE! 🎉🍔

We are beyond excited to officially announce that Burger Boy has a new home!

📍 1143 US-64, Murphy, NC 28906

This has been one of the most challenging journeys we've ever been through. There were moments when we didn't know what the future would hold, but thanks to the incredible support from this community, we never gave up.

To everyone who donated, shared our posts, sent encouraging messages, prayed for us, or simply believed in us—thank you. You helped keep our dream alive.

Now the real work begins. We have a lot to accomplish before we can open our doors. There will be cleaning, renovations, inspections, equipment to install, repairs to make, and countless hours of hard work to transform this space into the Burger Boy you've come to know and love.

Many of you have asked if our GoFundMe is still active. The answer is yes. Every donation continues to go directly toward getting Burger Boy back open—helping with equipment, repairs, and the countless expenses that come with bringing a restaurant back to life. There is absolutely no obligation, but if you've been looking for a way to help, every dollar truly does make a difference. Sharing the fundraiser with others is just as appreciated.

We're asking for just a little more patience as we get everything ready. We'll be sharing progress along the way, and as soon as we have an opening date, you'll be the first to know.

Today isn't just about signing a lease. It's about getting a second chance, continuing Burger Boy's story, and bringing our family business back to the community we love.
We can't wait to welcome everyone through our doors again.

Alright, y'all... 😂

The Burger Boy FBI has been working overtime, and we've seen just about every rumor imaginable.

Yes, we know people are talking. No, we aren't ready to announce anything yet.
These things take time, and we're trying to make sure we make the right decision, not the fastest one. We'd rather keep you waiting a little longer than announce something before the ink is dry or before we're 100% sure.

Trust me... if there was something we could tell you, we would. Keeping a secret is honestly exhausting. 🤣

So for now, please don't believe every rumor you hear around town. When there's real news to share, it'll come directly from us—not your cousin's neighbor's hairdresser's uncle's best friend's dog. 😉

Thank you all for hanging in there with us. Your support, patience, and excitement mean more than you'll ever know. We promise we'll share the news as soon as we can.

We truly appreciate everyone who has been sending us property suggestions and thinking of Burger Boy. It means a lot to know so many people want to help us find our next home.

One thing we'd like everyone to understand is that while we look at every suggestion, purchasing an $800,000 property—or any expensive commercial property—is simply not financially realistic for us right now. Our focus is finding a location that allows us to reopen responsibly and keep Burger Boy around for years to come.

Please know that we are actively exploring our options and working behind the scenes every single day. If and when we have something to announce, you'll hear it directly from us.

Thank you for your patience, your support, and for believing in Burger Boy. We promise we're doing everything we can to get back to serving this community as soon as possible.

We wanted to give everyone a quick update because so many of you continue to check in on us, and we truly appreciate it.

We are still actively working through the lease process for our new location. While we're excited about the opportunity, these things take time, and we want to make sure everything is done the right way before we share any official announcements.

We know you're just as eager as we are to see Burger Boy reopen, and believe us when we say we're working hard every day to make that happen.

Your patience, encouragement, and continued support have meant more to us than you'll ever know. Every message, every comment, every share, and every kind word reminds us why we're so determined to bring Burger Boy back.

As soon as we have news that we're able to share, you'll hear it directly from us.

Until then, thank you for believing in us and for standing by the Burger Boy family.

The next chapter of Burger Boy's story is still being written, and we can't wait to share it with all of you. ❤️

Burger Boy Update

We wanted to take a moment to give everyone an update.

We are currently working through the process of securing a lease for a new location. While we are excited about the possibility, these things don't happen overnight. There are a lot of details, paperwork, and negotiations that have to be completed before anything can be finalized.

We know everyone is eager for news, and trust us—we are too. We ask for a little patience while we work through the process and make sure everything is done the right way.

As soon as we have something official to announce, you'll hear it from us first. Until then, please know that we are working hard behind the scenes and doing everything we can to bring Burger Boy back.

Thank you for all the support, encouragement, and love you've shown us during this journey. It truly means more than you know. ❤️🍔
