About Jake’s Wayback Burgers
Founded in 1991 in Newark, DE, Jake’s Wayback Burgers is a fast-casual restaurant chain with a reputation for fresh burgers and thick, hand-dipped milkshakes. Jake’s Wayback Burgers is the re-imaging of the Great American roadside burger stand. It’s a throwback back to an era before Eisenhower and Interstate highways, before drive-in movies, sock-hops and poodle skirts, before Howard Johnson began the process of homogenizing the food people ate across the country.
