Pumpers calls itself an "adult burger store," a tag that fits both its Broadway location and a menu built around a short list of named burgers rather than endless customization. The Pumper comes with a house Sour Sauce, sweet onion, and a mix of white and yellow cheese. The #1 keeps things classic with ketchup, mustard, and pickles, while the #2 leans on a special sauce with shrettuce and onion. Specialty builds round things out: the Culo Melt with candied jalapeños and chipotle aioli, Charles' Jr. with fried haystack onions and a charred cumin BBQ sauce, and Last Exit (to Pumpers) as a straightforward lettuce-tomato-pickle-onion-mayo option.
