On April 20, 2026, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers is offering a unique slider experience with its new Towering Double Cheeseburger Sliders.
At most restaurants, a slider is a small and often unsatisfying experience that leaves you craving more. To ensure guests do not walk away hungry, Red Robin has created the Towering Double Cheeseburger Sliders, which feature meaty morssels served stacked on the brand's iconic tower stand. Each tower features four sliders made with juicy double beef patties, double the cheese, and toasted King’s Hawaiian Rolls. There's also the Towering Double Bacon Cheeseburger Sliders, which include hardwood-smoked bacon crumbles. As Brian Sullivan, Executive Chef and Vice President of Culinary & Beverage Innovation of Red Robin, explains, “Our sliders are bigger, juicier and unmistakably different, featuring double beef patties, double cheese and fan-favorite King’s Hawaiian Rolls, served stacked on our iconic tower. It’s a bold new slider experience that’s turning heads and making guests say, ‘Wait, I want that!'”
