Best burgers in Helsinki:, How do these rankings work?
1. Social Burgerjoint
Social Burgerjoint have four locations around the city and started off by making their burgers super classical in style and taste. Just about big enough to get into your mouth but the double patty is only for the serious eaters. Delicious.
2. Friends & Brgrs
This popular casual burger chain has been serving delicious burgers and fries since 2014, yet it still feels like a stand-alone burger joint. They still bake their own buns, triple-cook the fries and grind the meat themselves – putting serious effort into the taste and freshness of each burger.
3. NAUGHTY BRGR
NAUGHTY BRGR was founded by the first Finnish Top Chef winner Akseli Herlevi, who spent over 10 years in search of the best burger recipes in the world. The result? One of the best burger joints in the entire country. Juicy meat and heaps of toppings.
4. Krog Roba Restaurant
This former police station is now a relaxed restaurant in the Lilia Roberts hotel. Roba’s burger is an absolute beast, yet somehow manages to be the perfect size to take a bite all in one go. Pillowy fresh buns and Hereford beef make it stand out.
5. Töölön Sävel Finbistro
Just a few steps from the Töölö’s Market Square, this stylish bistro serves up some delectable burgers at lunch, on brioche buns with country style french fries.
Want a huge feed? Get the Sävel’s Open burger: Two minced beef steaks, Monterey Jack cheddar cheese, halloumi cheese, bacon, fried egg, lettuce, cheddar-chili mayonnaise, house coleslaw and aioli.
6. Sori Taproom
This brewery taproom has an modern American style kitchen with all your favourite foods, including the best smokey meats, burgers and BBQ. The burger changes regularly, but keep an eye out for the brisket one. Best bit? Choose from 24 craft beers on draft to wash it down with.
