Some of my favorites have already been mentioned. Here's a few that haven't.

One-offs:
Val's in Hayward, CA - Don't attempt the papa burger unless you actually do have a hollow leg.
Dutch Goose in Menlo Park, CA - Try the peanuts
Eagle's Nest in Cocoa Beach, FL - Also cheesesteaks. Usually really good, but last time I was there was not so good. Hopefully that was just a fluke.
The Hat in Alhambra, CA - Mmmmmmmm. Pastrami burger.
Helvetia Tavern possibly in Hillsboro?, OR - This is the big one. Seriously not sure if I don't want to keep this one to myself.
A few other places, but damned if I can remember the names. "That kick ass grill next to the watch shop a couple blocks up from the ferry terminals in Portland, Maine," probably isn't very helpful.

Chains:
White Spot in BC and Alberta are generally pretty good.
Steak 'n Shake in the southeast to midwest U.S. - I don't know why I like them, they're not super exceptional, but I just do.
Burgerville in the northwest U.S. can be really good.
Checkers seem to be popping up more and more places. Same with Johnny Rockets. Both are pretty good if you can tolerate the fake '50s kitsch.
Nathan's in the northeast U.S. - Yes, I know they're a hot dog chain. So what? I don't care. I like 'em.
The Hat is also a chain now. I saw another one in Pasadena recently. Fuck yeah! That can only be good. Hopefully they'll escape California soon.
 
I've recently discovered a place called Wee Shack in Morro Bay, CA. They have what's called the John Wayne burger that has bacon, onion rings, and a really good chipotle sauce. Their fries are also really good, they have tasty shakes, and they have a whole selection of things like chocolate covered Oreos and huge cookies!

Another place called Mclintock's in San Luis Obispo has great bacon avocado cheeseburger, and though I've yet to try them, you can get turkey nuts as an appetizer. Yes, the actual nuts of a turkey. (They have a larger location in Pismo Beach that has great steaks)
Main Street Grill in Cambria has a bacon avocado burger called the ABC burger, and they give you a loooot of fries with lots of good seasonings. Usually when I go there though, i get a pulled pork sandwich called The Pig. Now that, is a damn fine meal!
 
A&W. The burgers are great, but the onion rings and the root beer are out of this world!
 
1. Michael Symon's B Spot in Westlake, Ohio.
2. Mandalay Bay Burger Bar in Las Vegas
3. Houston's/Hillstone in Dallas, LA, Atlanta, etc.
