Why would anyone nominate a burger from a chain? The best local burger is at Ott's five-points.

This just gave me a great idea. I'm going to open my own burger place in SJ since you've just made me realize there isn't any good burger places in SJ. Thanks PATCH.

How can Pour House, or even the Inferno Burger at Pop Shop, not be on this list?

Hi readers, We had the nominations open for three weeks on this and the other Readers' Choice topics - these were the burger places readers nominated.

And, not for nothing, but Five Guys burgers are up there with any mom-and-pop establishment. And this comes from a guy who loves his burgers and spends plenty of time eating burgers in Philly and New York City (that was for you, McConkey).

I can't think of any really good burger places in South Jersey and certainly not in Cinnaminson so I'm not gonna say.

You guys also realize there is a Five Guys in Mount Laurel too right? How come only the ones in Cinnaminson and Sicklerville get nominated? Mays well nominate he whole chain.

Yep, Five Guys all over the place. These are just the ones that were nominated. Maybe the fries are a little more or less peanut oily at these locations? But really, I would think this is just where our readers happen to eat and so that's what they nominated.

The Pour House has far and away the best burgers, should be able to write them in. Having 2 Five Guys on the list is like having 2 McDonalds, makes no sense.

SJ magazine just said "The Coastline" has the best hamburger". And with the Pour House pulling hard for write in votes I just put in my resignation. "Get Buzy Livin Burgers" will be up and running in 30 days. Location TBD

Friendly advice to you, Phil: Keep the NY Giants and other NY sports gear out of your restaurant. Or you'll be closing shop in a month.

Look, I agree that including two Five Guys is a bit suspect. That said, as Lauren previously mentioned, we're honoring nominations from those readers who took the time to log on to our various South Jersey Patch sites and offer their favorites during the three-week nomination period. This is a fun contest, folks. Let's not be so darn serious all the time. You're going to make yourselves miserable (if you're not already there).

We were totally disappointed at the Palmyra Council Meeting last night. The ordinance requiring the…Read More Inspection, Registration, and Licensing of Residential Rental Properties was opposed by many concerned citizens. Concerns were stated and questions asked, but few were answered or addressed! I still do not know if the NJ State code supercedes this ordinance, since no one addressed my concerns. The legality of this ordinance was questioned and it was mentioned that similar laws have been challenged in other towns and invalidated by the NJ courts. Why did the council not form a committee with those landlords that expressed a willingness to work together to come to an acceptable compromise and passage of an ordinance that is legal and for the good of all of Palmya?

I actually agree with most of what you say. If they face a court challenge and lose, they are dumber…Read More than I thought. My point is that something has to be done. I feel that inaction is unacceptable. I literally have neighbors moving/trying to move because of 1 or 2 rental properties. Garbage on the lawn. Garbage in the street. Lawn only gets cut twice a year. Broken glass in the street. Multiple cars taking up space in front of homeowner's homes. Junk cars leaking oil in the streets. Broken porches, railings and windows. The drugs. The drugs. They should enforce current codes! The police should do their jobs. I hope that these new rules don't hurt innocent people, but some landlords have shown that they don't give a damn about the community that their "investments" are in.
