New York City’s cult-favorite smash-burger spot is betting Hackensack is hungry. 7th Street Burger has taken over a storefront on West Pleasantview Avenue, bringing its stripped-down lineup of thin, crispy-edged patties on soft potato buns to Bergen County. The move widens the brand’s New Jersey footprint beyond Hoboken and its cluster of Manhattan locations, and local hiring notices and fresh signage suggest the restaurant is gearing up to start serving.

According to the chain’s official locations page, the Hackensack shop is listed at 370 W. Pleasantview Ave and is slated to open in mid-June. 7th Street Burger also posts hours, menu items and ordering options for the new location on its site.

Local reports have not always agreed on exactly when burger time begins. As noted by Boozy Burbs, the Pleasantview spot is open as of June 9, 2026. Earlier coverage from New Jersey 101.5 and NJBiz pointed to April and May target dates for new New Jersey outposts, reflecting shifting timelines as the chain rolled out multiple locations.

Where It Will Be

The Pleasantview Avenue address comes with some local restaurant history. The storefront previously housed Juicy Platters, Boardwalk Burgers and other concepts, according to Boozy Burbs. Recent job postings tied to the new burger shop list the Hackensack address and openings for line cooks and managers, signaling that the kitchen is being staffed up. An online listing on Indeed references a manager role at 370 West Pleasantview Avenue.

What To Expect

Fans can expect a tight, value-focused menu that does not wander far from the core smash-burger playbook. NJBiz reported cheeseburgers priced around $6.50 and doubles closer to $9.50. The brand’s posted menu (via its online PDF) lists single and double cheeseburgers, a spicy jalapeño variation and an Impossible patty option for vegetarian diners, along with fries and a small slate of sides. Many New York locations stay open late, which helped turn 7th Street into a go-to late-night stop in the city.

How 7th Street Is Growing In New Jersey

The chain started in Manhattan’s East Village and has since expanded across New York and into neighboring states, according to background reporting. The Hackensack restaurant will sit alongside the brand’s nearby Hoboken outpost at 112 Washington St, which the company includes on its official locations list. 7th Street Burger has drawn attention from local business outlets tracking a wave of New Jersey openings in the spring.

Both company and local listings peg the Hackensack address as 370 W. Pleasantview Ave, and regional directories have followed suit. YellowPages and similar listings now include the new location, while local coverage of the Hoboken shop has helped introduce the brand to Garden State diners. Hoboken Girl has previously detailed 7th Street Burger’s operations in Hoboken, hinting at what Hackensack residents can expect once the grills are fully firing.
