Bonfire Burgers & Bourbon Salad Restaurant

Bonfire brings downtown Amherst to life with bold, wood-fired flavors and a chef-driven approach. Our southern rustic cuisine is elevated with seasonal ingredients sourced from local partners like Tucker Family Farms and Sweet Briar Farms, giving every dish depth, warmth, and a touch of refinement. At the heart of our kitchen, a hardwood smoker infuses signature dishes with natural wood-fire richness, while our whiskey bar offers an extensive bourbon selection and rotating cocktails.
