The legacy of the Harlem Renaissance is still alive and well in Harlem. To this day, the neighborhood stands as an epicenter for Black culture, music and history. Landmarks including the Apollo Theater and Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture have stood the test of time and continue to inspire. Alongside them is an array of restaurants, bars and cultural hubs that speak to the area's past and present.

The burger will run you about $9, so make it a meal with fries ($4) and add on their Red Velvet shake for good measure ($7).
