The Plazaburger is a double-stack tavern burger from The Plaza Tavern on North Henry Street, topped with the bar's secret sauce, cheese, lettuce and tomato.
The Plazaburger was created at The Plaza Tavern on North Henry Street in 1964, a block off State Street between the Wisconsin State Capitol and the University of Wisconsin Madison. The double-stack burger with the bar's secret sauce became the signature of the tavern's long lunch and dinner trade, and remains the canonical Plazaburger version in 2026. The Plaza Tavern hasn't changed locations since.
