Where to get burgers in Short Pump: West Broad and Pouncey Tract

Last checked 2026-10-19. Refreshed every three months.

Short Pump’s burger places sit in two clusters. The sit-down burger bars and the Shake Shack and Five Guys counters are on West Broad Street between Short Pump Town Center and the Green Gate shops, with Ford’s Garage farther east near Interstate 64. The drive-thrus are together on Pouncey Tract Road just north of Broad, and a McDonald’s is in the Nuckols Road shops.

How we made this list. Short Pump has no city limits: it is an unincorporated part of Henrico County, so we used the Census Bureau’s boundary for the Short Pump census-designated place. The places come from OpenStreetMap records inside that boundary, which also feed our local directory, and from the Virginia Department of Health’s restaurant inspection records, checked against each place’s own website on 2026-10-19. Where a chain’s store page could not be read, we list it from its inspection record. The list is alphabetical and is not a ranking or a recommendation. Nobody paid to be on it. Restaurants can write to us to correct an entry.
