New Haven is home to a fantastic performing arts scene, is home base for Yale University, is home to one of the most celebrated pizza restaurants in the country, Pepes, and is the birthplace of the hamburger (as recognized by the Library of Congres). Seriously, if you get the chance, hit up Louis’ Lunch. The family run institution opened in 1895 and their burger is just a marvel — no condiments required.
