We all need a few no-fuss hideaways in our lives – a place we can go without having to worry about dressing up or making reservations. That one spot where we can just relax, be ourselves, and dig into a meal that’s second-to-none. The Squeeze Inn in Missouri might not have all the pizzazz of a chain, but it doesn’t have to because it makes some of the best cheeseburgers in the state. It’s definitely one for the bucket list.
Keep an eye out for the sign that alerts you that you’ve arrived at The Squeeze Inn in Stockton, a no-frills restaurant that sits a good bit back from the road.
The unassuming exterior belies the whimsy and deliciousness that await just beyond the front door of this eatery that’s earned props as Missouri’s best hole-in-the-wall burger joint.
Grab a seat under the watchful eye of one of the many gnomes that decorates the restaurant. The walls are dotted with framed photos and other memorabilia that’s sure to catch your eye.
If you’re a fan of burgers, you’ve definitely come to the right place. The Squeeze Inn earns rave reviews for its cheeseburgers, in particular. Some diners even call it the “best cheeseburger around.”
What makes the cheeseburger at The Squeeze Inn stand apart from the competition is the cheese skirt. The quarter-pound burger is grilled with a generous topping of shredded cheese that melts into a skirt around the meat.
While cheeseburger fans definitely won’t want to pass up the popular menu item, take a peek at the rest of the offerings too. The no-fuss eatery also serves hot dogs, BLTs, and grilled cheese.
