The maple bacon burger at 17 Public Square features a beef patty topped with hickory-smoked bacon, cheddar cheese, apple slices, bourbon onion jam, and maple aioli, served with house fries.[20] What makes this burger distinct is the layering of sweet and savory elements, with apples and maple components playing against smoky bacon and sharp cheddar for a more composed flavor profile than a basic bacon cheeseburger.[20] Each bite moves from the crisp bacon and fresh apple to the juicy patty, while the jam and aioli add a rounded sweetness and moisture that keep the sandwich cohesive.[20] Local dining guides have pointed to this burger as a comfort-oriented option that still feels thoughtfully built.[20]
