New Burger Joint Opens At Bayfair Center

Digger's Diner offers burgers, hot dogs, milkshakes and other 'to-die-for' American fare.

 

If you're on a diet, steer clear of  Digger’s Diner which recently started serving hamburgers, hotdogs, milkshakes and other American fare at the food court at Bayfair Center.

But if you want a monster selection with a grave-digger themed name, then pay a visit to this new outpost of a chain that started 18 years ago in Concord.

"Digger's Diner may well serve the best burger you will find in Concord or anywhere else, for that matter," according to a food review in Concord Patch. "That’s somewhat of a bold statement and I’m sure some of you will challenge me on that, but I suggest you go try it and then write me. With names like the Coffin, the Stubb and the Crypt, the burgers are huge and delicious."

Digger's Diner got its name "because original owner, Digger Dave, worked as a graveyard digger before going into the restaurant business," the Patch review continued.

This is NOT the place for calorie-counters or Vegans, but it does hail from the juicy, drippy, better-wear-a-bib school of burger-making.

For Digger's to achieve fame in San Leandro it will have to contend with the Patch's Reader's Choice of 2012 winners in the Best Burger category.

They are:

Winner: Boulevard Burgers

2nd Place: Val's

3rd Place: Nation's, Sam's

Meanwhile, Bayfair Center anticipates the opening of another new food court eatery, Pizza-cademy, before the end of the year.

There's a place outside of Sacramento near Davis called Murder Burgers.

Think of the synergies, Craig, between Murder Burgers & Digger's Diner.

There's also a Digger's Diner in Hayward and Brentwood. And they do have veggie and low carb items. Take a look at their menu. diggersdiners.com/diggersdiners.com/Lunch_Dinner.html

This is nothing like the one in Hayward. This is a Diggers Diner "express", no breakfasts, etc. Good but pricey

And you think that plunking down a very low income housing project in the middle of cheap housing inRead More San Leandro is more like Castro Valley? or more like West/East Oakland. It's more like the latter. Can't wait for the drive-by shootings and muggings to ratchet up when we thrown away $9M in tax dollars on building a new downtown SL BART ghetto.
Rob Rich June 18, 2013 at 12:35 pm
It is unfortunate the Bridge has been unable to stop all crime in Oakland. Sadly, that lesson willRead More probably apply to San Leandro too.
David June 19, 2013 at 05:51 am
It's even more unfortunate that San Leandro hasn't learned the lesson that concentrating povertyRead More into housing projects leads to concentrations of crime. A lesson *every other* major city in America has learned over the past 50 years of failed urban policies.

What brand is the pastry cutter?
Rowena Peñalba June 18, 2013 at 11:27 pm
It's slightly used but I don't remember where I bought it from. I don't see any brand name on it. IRead More just priced it based on the lowest one available on Amazon. If you're interested, make me an offer. Maybe we can agree on it. Thanks for your inquiry.

One of the best operas ever. I hope to see it. How excited for OOT and San Leandro!

Can you reprint this several times prior to June 27. I don't want people to forget about it? Thanks

Leah, do you have the authorization from Disney for the use of the copyrighted Dumbo character youRead More use for your blog? I thought that the policy of Patch was to deny access to non-authorized materials such as this.

Nope.
