Greenwood Village-based Red Robin Gourmet Burgers is getting into the build-a-better-burger quickly business with the launch of Red Robin Burger Works, a fast-casual version of the full-service sit-down restaurants, Nov. 21 at Northfield Stapleton.
The introduction of this new concept marks Red Robin’s intention to compete with Smashburger and other booze and burger operations.
Burger Works will offer the same one-third-pound patties served in the regular RR restaurants with various topping options for $5.99. Beer and wine also are on the menu.
The fast-casual model includes counter ordering and pick-up. Other menu items include entree salads, chicken tenders and ice-cream milkshakes.
Red Robin will also open another Burger Works on the Auraria and Ohio State campuses in the spring, according to the company’s website.
