The Stand Burger And Sandwich Shop Opens In Pasadena

The Stand's sixth location has opened in Pasadena. Located across from the Pasadena Playhouse in Old Town, the new burger and sandwich shop offers a great option for pre-theatre or movie meals in Old Town.

With individual tables, high tops, and communal seating, the design is casual and contemporary with counters made from Carrera marble. Televisions, digital menus, an open kitchen and a patio area for outdoor seating add to the casual vibe.

The Stand's menu includes made-to-order custom burgers and chicken sandwiches, as well as hot dogs and sausages. (Wonder if they rank in the country's best?) There is also a large variety of sides and salad options.

Standout menu items include the on-trend kale salad with heirloom tomatoes, chickpeas, bacon, and feta; the apple slaw turkey burger with a turkey patty, green apple and red onion slaw, barbecue sauce and roasted butternut squash; the ultimate egg burger with a fried egg, bacon, and pickled peppers; the porchetta sandwich with pork, red onion and green apple slaw, bacon tomato jam, and chimichurri; and the "Guac-on-Fire Dog," where guacamole gets heats from cilantro lime aïoli. Save room for the Stand's famous custard cobbler.

The Stand's current seasonal specials include a Chinese chicken chopped salad with crispy noodles and wontons and a short rib grilled cheese sandwich with tomato jam.

The new Stand in Pasadena is located at 36 South El Molino Ave.
