Park Burger

What Park Burger does

Park Burger is a privately held casual burger restaurant brand founded in 2009 in Denver, Colorado, operating three neighborhood locations — Pearl (South Denver), Highlands (West Denver), and Hilltop (Central Denver). The concept is built around chef-inspired burgers using all-natural, never-frozen beef, buffalo, turkey, and house-made veggie patties, paired with locally baked buns, locally sourced Colorado ingredients, Colorado craft beer, and house-made sides, milkshakes, and cocktails. The culinary program is led by owner and Executive Chef Jean-Philippe Failyau, a French Culinary Institute graduate with 10+ years of fine dining experience in New York City, San Francisco, and Denver. Park Burger operates as part of Gastamo Group, a Denver-based hospitality company that manages multiple restaurant concepts including Lady Nomada, Perdida, Homegrown Tap & Dough, and Park & Co.

The business operates as a direct-to-consumer restaurant with revenue generated from four streams: dine-in and online pickup at the three restaurant locations; the Burger Buggy mobile catering service (operating seasonally May–October for groups up to 250 guests at $17 per person); private event hosting for rehearsals, corporate gatherings, and celebrations; and a community fundraiser program that donates 15% of sales back to qualifying 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations hosting events Monday–Thursday. Pricing follows a unit-based pay-as-you-go model, with menu items in the $5–$17 range and structured promotions including a $14 weekday lunch special (Monday–Friday 11am–3pm) and a happy hour (Monday–Friday 2pm–5pm) featuring $8 burgers, $5 large fries, $5 well drinks, and $1 off all drafts. Marketing is conducted through organic social channels (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok), email newsletter signup via the parent Gastamo Group, and the company website; no paid acquisition, technology platform, or AI/ML infrastructure is in evidence.
