What to order

Double Cheeseburger (100% grass-fed)

Grass-fed / pasture-raised available

100% grass-fed beef, confirmed via the restaurant's own ordering-platform menu copy

Hi-Way Burger & Fry has no website of its own (the domain is parked/for sale); its own menu copy, hosted on Toast's ordering platform, describes both the Hamburger and Double Cheeseburger as "100% grass-fed beef." That's restaurant-written menu copy, just hosted on a platform instead of an owned domain, and the exact restaurant-specific ordering link wasn't reachable during verification, so this stays at a lower confidence tier than the other certified/verified entries. · confirmed via Toast: San Francisco best burgers (Hi-Way Burger & Fry menu listing)

What to order

Classic Grass-Fed Burger

Grass-fed / pasture-raised available

100% grass-fed beef, whole menu, from named ranch partners

Press coverage (QSR Magazine) describes Roam's patties as "100-percent grass-fed beef" from Pacific Pastures and, more recently, 4K Ranch in Montana. Roam's own site did not load during verification (connection refused), so this rests on press corroboration rather than a literal on-page quote. This Fillmore Street location is confirmed currently open via its own Yelp listing (no closure tag), unlike the chain's since-closed San Mateo and Oakland locations. · confirmed via QSR Magazine: Roam Artisan Burgers

Grass-Fed Burger

Grass-fed / pasture-raised available

100% grass-fed beef across all locations

FSR Magazine (Aug. 29, 2023) quoted Verde Farms' SVP on True Food Kitchen's chain-wide beef program: "100 percent grass-fed on pastures where cattle roam free 100 percent of the time, no feedlots, ever." This Stanford Shopping Center location in Palo Alto runs the same program; only beef is covered by the claim. · confirmed via FSR Magazine: True Food Kitchen's grass-fed beef partnership
