    Absolutely loved it!!! I had the Eifel Burger with sweet potatoe fries. What can I say, one of the best burgers I had so far. The taste was incredible, very juicy and flavourful. Next to it the sweet potato fries were a perfect side dish. You definitely have to give this place a visit and taste one of their burgers, you won't regret it. The service was also very good, super friendly and welcoming. Pretty much the easiest 5/5 review I ever have done.

    Nice place for burgers in the midst of Stockholm's down. The meal was comparatively affordable for its location. We had a cheese burger, eifel burger, and street burger and were all pleased with the taste and quality. The staff was kind and attentive. Had a clean area to sit outside. If any of my friends ever followed up on their promises to visit me abroad, I would be comfortable to take them here.

    Best burgers I’ve had in Sweden by far. It was quick, inexpensive and delicious. The fries are as great and in a generous portion. It doesn’t compare to other fast food chains. Ideal restaurant for a quick bite and a beer at a good price

    Had the Barrel CheeseBurger, sweet potato fries, wings. All absolutely outstanding. One of the best burgers I’ve had in Europe. Nice staff and atmosphere.

    Wer Hunger auf gute Burger hat, geht genau dort hin. Super saftig, super lecker, kann ich nur weiterempfehlen! Preislich-Leistungsverhältnis ist dazu auch unschlagbar. Ich war begeistert.

    They have a nice outside eating area. Service is slow though so don’t come here if you’re in a hurry for a quick bite. I ordered the street burger, which I thought was very good: juicy and tasty. The fries are fine, but nothing to write home about. I also ordered the Barrels mojito but I was not impressed. Staff are nice but slow

    Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a great burger and a beer! I visited based on a recommendation from a friend and was not disappointed. I ordered a single Matador burger with Eco fries and some chipotle mayo. When I saw the burger I was a little disappointed by how much salad was in it, thinking they'd gone overboard. I was wrong, the burger has a perfect balance between bread, chili and salami and the bun was fluffy and light. They have a great selection of beers and the staff are very polite and helpful.

    Burgers and Beers! What else could you want?! :-) Great selection of craft beers and burgers with all sorts of sauces and sides to match. The chipotle sauce and 50/50 fires along with the chicken burger was my top choice. The Spaten beer on tap was fantastic. Seats outside, fairly compact inside so you’ll need to get to know your next table. Good music in the place and a cool vibe. If you are in Stockholm, these have got to be the best in the city!! Friendly and fast service.

    Nice little spot to stop for a drink & bathroom pit stop. Wait staff was quite friendly. The Moscow Mule was tasty too. Can’t wait to go back for the food. It looked yummy.

    We came back here a second time at the end of our stay it was so good. The burgers have so many edges, nicely burnt, and the cheese melted into all the nooks and crannies. The triple smash maximized these plus jalapeños. Sweet potato fries were crisp outside, gooey inside and the regular fries were equally good (plus had a dill seasoning). The music is chill, electro hop beats. The street is main in Gamlastan, so plenty of people to eyeball. Local microbreweries on tap round out one of the perfect little burger joints around.

    We had two burgers, one veggie and one cheeseburger. The veggie one, wasn't very good, it seems like if it doesn't have salt at all. The cheeseburger was great, and also try the sweet potatoes fríes, they are amazing. It's a little expensive thus 3 stars.

    Good burgers and side dishes. The hamburger maybe a little smaller than expected (3xsmash steak) Plus the more special beers. Atmospheric milieu and fast service, so really fast!

  • 5/5 Grant N. 7 months ago on Google
    Loved this place. Gosh, the food is so fresh and tastes incredible. It's not like a north American burger, which can leave you feeling heavy in the stomach. This burger and fries left you satiated without being lethargic. On top, they had awesome local beers to choose from which was also awesome. Nice to sit on the patio taking in the sights and sounds of Glama Stan.

    Very good vegetarian burger and great fries. It is possible to make the burger gluten free. They also have a nice selection of local beers. I would go back.

    Have been here before and food tasted really good, but this time wasn't that great. Ordered veg burger and quinoa burger, both were average, patties were too crisp. The veg fries are new in the menu, it seemed not fresh and chewy. Service was fine.

  • 5/5 Giovanni P. 2 months ago on Google • 160 reviews New
    A restaurant with tasty (vegan) burgers. Very tasty! I think it's one of the tastiest vegan burgers I've ever tried. I can highly recommend it.

    Wir sind hier auf einem Samstag aufgrund der googeln Rezessionen eingekehrt. Das Bier wurde mir sogar zum Testen angeboten da ich mich nicht entscheiden konnte. Die Burger waren saftig und sehr sehr lecker. Klare Empfehlung von uns 👍

    Delicious burgers and dessert at Old Town. Great stop for either before you walk around the cute streets of Gamla Stan, or after you explore the Old Town. Service was so-so. Since we were seated outside, I had to go inside and ask for the bill. Burgers don’t include fries and drink though so as with any resto in Scandinavia, it can get pricey. Seated streetside, I actually am not sure if the street was just closed for the day or it really is pedestrianized. A few vans passed by so I had to watch out for it as I had a stroller parked by my seat. The vegetarian burger tasted like it wasn’t vegetarian, which is a good thing.

    Had an amazing veggie burger there - not always easy for a vegetarian to find a good burger and also have choices! Apart from their dedicated veggie burgers, all "regular" ones are also available with a veggie or cheese patty, yay!! Burger and cheese fries were amazing. Lovely caring service too - everyone was very friendly and service was super quick.

    I had the Nr. burger, eco french fries and raspberry lemonade. The burger was 10/10 but the fries were soaked in oil, I think the potatoes were good quality and tasted somewhat good but were soaking in lots of oil 5/10. The raspberry lemonade seemed like water with chemical concentrate 2/10, didn’t taste like lemonade even though it was quite expensive. The service was great 10/10.

    The service was excellent. I met a greek guy who was working there and he was very polite and helpful. The food was good and tasty but a little bit expensive. I recommend it to anyone who wants to eat burger in Gamla Stan's area.

    Went here for dinner and left relatively satisfied. Very nice staff, really tasty food. Fries are not included, neither is a drink. They don’t have regular drinks, but rather, a German brand. Good variation of beers. Delicious sweet potato fries and burgers:) music is a tad too loud but that was ok.

    Excellent burger place, the flavour of the hamburgers was delicious, we eat one single street burger with bacon, the triple smash and the incredibles sweet potatoes. Very recommendable site.

  • 5/5 Divya K. 2 years ago on Google
    They have one of the best vegetarian burgers I have had in Stockholm. Really recommend it for vegetarians. Also, they have some new and interesting aides like roasted cauliflower and beans. It's worth a shot!

  • 5/5 GOTR Media L. 7 months ago on Google
    Bomb burgers! We had the special which had a Gochujang sauce. The burger flavor was great, and the buns were soft. Pair it with a Kaos IPA! Recommended.

  • 5/5 Lucia 10 months ago on Google
    The food was really good and quickly prepared. We liked that you could see to the kitchen and there was no bad smell coming from the kitchen. The staff was nice and friendly. They also have a wide selection of beer.

  • 5/5 Paschim P. 1 year ago on Google
    Really good burgers and the restaurant is located in the Gamlastan streets which makes it very cozy. They have good assortment of beers on the tap as well 👍🏽

  • 5/5 Jonathan CT S. 7 months ago on Google
    Perfect combination of atmosphere, food, and service. Delicious and perfectly sized burgers. Fresh and satiating beer. Friendly staff who bring the experience together. Highly recommended if you're on a trip to Stockholm.

  • 3/5 Chris W. 8 months ago on Google
    I have been here many times and usually have a good experience. Tasty burgers, good beer selection, friendly staff. My low rating today is specifically for the issues with the beer availability. I ask that the restaurant please remove a selection if that beer is no longer available. I sat down and the all three beers I requested were “just emptied”. So, I took one I didn’t really want because I ran out of options on tap. I would have not been seated and ordered food had I known. I still like this place and will be back, but I hope they will keep the on tap lit updated.

    On my 4-days-trip to Stockholm I've been here twice and I must say: these were the best burgers I've ever had. I was able to taste four of them. The buns were soft, but not dry or crumbly, The meat was juicy, roasty, but not burned. The other ingredients, gave the burgers a destictive direction. Everything fit perfectly together, no ingredient was overpowering, except of roasted onions maybe, which I therefore always deselect / replace. They also have good assortment of craft beers and other drinks. Service was very kind and friendly. Sitting inside is ok, but outside it's a real pleasure. I will definitely l be stopping by on my next visit.

    Amazing burgers! Read the reviews and decided to go here and was very impressed. The vegetarian burger was beautiful, well cooked very filling and flavoursome.the chips were some of the best chips I've had in a long time too

  • 5/5 Collins S. 2 years ago on Google
    Delicious burgers, friendly staff and a nice warm environment. A good place to grab some burgers in the old town of gamlastan. They even have sweet potato fries and a good selection of drinks to choose from. Prices are quite standard for stockholm. Recommended burger joint!

  • 5/5 C. I. 1 year ago on Google
    Very delicious vegetarian burger. First time I saw a burger wrapped in a salad leaf and tried it. It was incredibly delicious and light. Other burger vendors in Europe should follow this trend 😎 Staff were also friendly and nice. Certainly a recommended place from me.

    Decent triple smash burger. Really needs more cheese. Street burger was underseasoned. Awesome beers but heavy prices.
