This is probably the closest you’re going to get to an American burger in Bacolod. Gunny’s All American Burger serves authentic American-style burgers and good old-fashioned sides. The place is owned by retired U.S. Marine Corps agent Gene Jackson, who got all the recipes from his mother in North Carolina. Since it is close to a university, the prices of the burgers are affordable without sacrificing their quality. They have a “secret” menu, but for starters, their charcoal flame-grilled burger is the crowd favorite.

How to get to Gunny’s All American Burger: If you are at South Ceres Terminal, cross the street and board a Shopping La Salle-Central Market PUV. Then, ask the driver to drop you off across Eclipse Gym. Once you get off, enter the street to your right and walk a few meters to find the Heritage Dormitory.
