Late night burgers in Berkley

“Buns and Patties” is a fitting name for a new burger joint set to open in downtown Berkley in early 2026. The casual eatery will have late night hours and is owned by three childhood friends— David Pinkhasov, Mark Isakov and Vlad Shamayev. “There’s a huge gap in late-night dining options around here,” said co-owner David Pinkhasov. “We wanted to create a spot where people can count on great food and a fun vibe after a concert, a shift, or a night out.” The trio has worked in various jobs in the restaurant industry for over a decade—opening their own place is a dream come true. “We came up in the industry together, dishwashing, bartending, and managing. We’ve seen every side of the business,” said co-owner Mark Isakov. “This has always been our goal, and we’re proud to bring that dream to life right here

in Berkley.” The menu is burger-centric, including a signature smash burger, with two beef patties layered with cheese, house sauce and pickles on a toasted bun. Other offerings include a crispy fried chicken sandwich, short rib grilled cheese, chicken tenders, seasoned fries and soft-serve sundaes. Buns and Patties will also offer online ordering and a drive-up pickup window. Late-night hours will extend to 1 a.m. on weekdays and 3 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. 2375 Coolidge Highway, Berkley bunsandpatties.com
