Named “Best Burger” in Rhode Island, Stanley’s Reopens June 14

Stanley’s Famous Hamburgers has announced its return.

The iconic Central Falls institution will be serving burgers and more when it reopens on June 14 following a months-long closure due to a burst pipe and renovations. 

The business, which had opened in 1932 was started by Stanley F. Kryla who had a dream: “to make an honest, affordable hamburger. In the face of the Great Depression, he opened his restaurant with a commitment to sell a simple American product -- home-cooked, full of flavor & affordable.”

Food and Wine Magazine took notice in 2021, writing of their favorite Rhode Island burger, “The trick here is a method common in other parts of the country, less so in New England—onions are pressed into the meat while on the grill, allowing the two to cook together, adding a burst of extra flavor.”

Stanley’s had kept its loyal customer base up to speed with its restaurant renovations following a burst pipe in January, initially predicting a earlier spring start date.

Now, the reopening reality has officially come true.
