Off the Menu: Burger Shed

“Off the Menu” is an Altoona restaurant feature sponsored by Elder Corporation


Stomach rumbling? Maybe you worked up an appetite on the green at Terrace Hills Golf Course, playing the tables at Prairie Meadows Racetrack and Casino, or going anti-gravity at Altoona’s amusement park.

Right now, there’s only one thing you need: a big, juicy burger.

Okay, two things: a burger and a beer.

Oh, and don’t forget the milkshake.

Make that three.

Burger Shed hits the spot.

Burger Shed, Altoona’s sizzling hot new restaurant, is the perfect pit stop after a long day at Iowa’s Entertainment Capital. You can sit indoors or out on the patio as you enjoy their handcrafted burgers, made with a signature blend of Certified Angus Beef® and beef brisket (with tasty alternatives for vegetarians).

They’re also serious about their beer—Burger Shed has 16 rotating taps, serving only the finest Iowa-brewed craft beer.

And their handcrafted shakes are the cherry on top, with flavors like Apple Dumpling and Salted Caramel. Spice it up with a shot of Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey.
