Your Attention, Cheese! Holiday Inn® Is Grilling Up More Than Smiles On National Cheeseburger Day

ATLANTA, Sept. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- IHG^® (InterContinental Hotels Group), one of the world's leading hotel companies, is celebrating National Cheeseburger Day on Sept. 18 by giving away up to 10,000 Classic* cheeseburgers at Holiday Inn^® Burger Theorytm restaurants.

Hungry travelers and locals alike can enjoy a free Classic cheeseburger at any of the 26 participating Burger Theory restaurants located across the U.S. and Canada while supplies last and no purchase necessary. In addition to delicious cheeseburgers and signature house-made mini-desserts, Burger Theory restaurants offer a selection of 30+ local, regional and classic craft beers to help incorporate a neighborhood feel for guests.

Jason Dowd, Head of Global Mainstream Food & Beverage, IHG, said: "While kids eat free every day at Holiday Inn, taking the whole family for free cheeseburgers on National Cheeseburger Day is a great way to make lasting memories together. If you're not craving the Classic cheeseburger, Burger Theory has more than 4,000 burger combinations to choose from on its Create-Your-Own menu."  

Burger Theory is also introducing a limited-time offer of a three-cheese loaded burger, the Cheese Louise, available from Sept. 18 through Nov. 11. The Cheese Louise burger takes proprietary Burger Theory Certified Angus Beef^TM blend in a new half pound burger, deliciously packed with cheddar, Boursin^TM, and American cheeses on a butter-toasted potato roll with leaf lettuce, sliced tomatoes and our house-made Killer Good Burger (KGB) sauce.

Launched in 2014, Burger Theory is a take on the fast-growing, specialty burger segment, with 26 open restaurants and growing for Holiday Inn. The new and modernly fresh food, beverage and design at today's Holiday Inn hotels, combined with the warm, genuine hospitality the brand has long been known for, provide a unique and enjoyable travel experience for everyone.
