We love new restaurants. There’s nothing like the joy of stumbling upon a recently-opened spot and being the first of your friends to discover how tasty it is. It seems like there’s a new eatery opening up every week in some areas of the Sunflower State. Even so, can anything compare to that cozy feeling of coming home when you order a meal at an old favorite? After all, if a restaurant’s been around long enough, it’s practically a guarantee as to the quality of food and service. One of our favorite long-standing restaurants in Kansas that’s most definitely proved itself worth the hype is NuWay Burgers. This place has been delighting Kansans for almost a century.

NuWay Burgers is practically synonymous with Wichita. There are four locations throughout the city.

Each has its own decor, but expect a retro feel that’s charmingly quaint and comfortably no-frills.

What makes NuWay burgers so unique is the patty’s crumbled texture.

NuWay first opened up in 1930 and is still using the same original recipe today.

The root beer floats are almost as famous as the burgers - they’re so tasty!

Fine dining it is not, but if you want a delicious, filling meal at an affordable price point, NuWay is a great option.
