BEST BURGERS IN BARCELONA

Asado
These guys do their own thing, and they do it well. Insane burgers with only the best ingredients, and you won’t leave hungry. Make sure to try El Don, an insane burger that comes oozing with smoky dry-aged beef, bacon and onion stew, confit mayo, and all.the.things. Want something seriously spicy? They’ve got that covered too. The restaurant deco is really cool, they have craft beer on tap, specialty coffee (!) from Hidden Coffee Roasters, and cocktails. Check, check, check. Now they also have a second location. Read my review of Asado here.

Henry’s Bar
Not only is Henry’s Bar fantastic for cocktails and consistently good vibes, their burger is truly worth devouring. It might look simple and straightforward, but it is very, very tasty. Read my review of Henry’s Bar here.
C/ de la Llacuna, 92, Sant Martí, 08018 Barcelona.

Chivuo’s
A classic, hands down. Chivuo’s has been around now for a quite a few years, and they have created a name for themselves with their top-notch burgers and their “slow street food.” The pulled pork burger is a great option: the pork has been slowly roasted for 16 hours, and the house BBQ sauce is legendary. Keep an eye out for the seasonal Patty Melt that is one of the best sandwiches I have EVER had. They have craft beers on tap. Read my review of Chivuo’s here.

Caravelle
Their burger is AMAZING. The bun, the meat, the sauce, all of the ingredients, everything. Love this burger. Pair it with one of their craft beers, or their refreshing home-made sodas. Read my review on Caravelle here.

Noumades
Noumades does not only serve great craft beer from their 14 taps, interesting natural wines, but also mind-blowing burgers. They have perfected the recipes to a T, with some featuring their own special, highly addictive mayonnaise. They offer standard burgers in various formats and smash burgers, and you should try both. Make sure to order the shrimp guacamole as a starter!
Noumades, Carrer Casp 55 (Eixample Dreta).
Big Al’s
There is something about those curly fries that is simply irresistible. And the burgers are big and packed with flavor, topped with a perfect brioche bun. My weakness is the Fat Elvis: peanut butter, banana, bacon, and a meat patty. If you are a really, really big burger fan make sure to order the Widowmaker (good luck with finishing it). They have craft beers on tap and a few American soda options such as Dr. Pepper and two kinds of root beer. Read my review of Big Al’s here.
Carrer de Córsega 178 (Eixample Esquerra). The OG Big Al’s is located in Sitges.
Fast Eddies
Fast Eddie’s manages to go under the radar, but those who have visited are often big, big fans of their burgers. Choose between a cheeseburger or a double one, a fried chicken sandwich, a veg sandwich with cauliflower and onion pakora, or the fish sandwich (available on Fridays). Oh, and shoestring fries as a side. This place is a vibe.

Gringa
This hip hangout is famed for their Taco Tuesday and their brunch, but the burgers are one of a kind too. Make sure to try the Fried Chicken Burger. Read my review of Gringa here, and of their sister establishment Gringa All Day here.
Carrer de la Lleialtat 16 (Raval) and Gringa All Day C/ de Trafalgar, 39, 2 (Eixample Dreta).
De Paula
Sorry De Paula lovers, I know you want to keep this place a secret… But its is one of the best burger places in the city, so I’ve gotta share it! This Poble Sec gem is the favorite of many. One of the most popular burgers is the Copacabana: picanha meat, bread made with dark beer, and smoked mozzarella. Their bravas are also worth a try: they are made on the same grill as the burgers (not deep-fried). Now they have a second location in Gràcia.
Carrer Creu dels Molers, 65 (Poble Sec) and Carrer de Terol, 6, (Gràcia).
Bemba Smash Burger
A vibey spot with creative smash burgers and good sides. They also have gluten-free buns. Many claims Bemba as their favourite burger in Barcelona, and I can see why.
C/ de l'Encarnació, 38 (Gràcia).

La Royale
Gourmet burgers are the theme here, by famed chef Paco Perez. The meat is hand-cut, and the patties grilled on the Josper grill. You can pair your tasty burger with a gin tonic, or any other cocktail you fancy. The place is cozy, and they have a terrace. You can opt for a gluten-free bun if you wish.
Plaça del Camp 5 (Sarria-Sant Gervasi).
La Porca
Poble Sec hides a few well-kept secrets, and La Porca has made a name for itself with their excellent sandwiches and burgers. One of the top sellers is the recently added Triple Porca that began as a seasonal sandwich but has turned into a fixed item on the menu: locally sourced pork, smoked bacon jam, bacon, raclette, and a secret sauce. Make sure to try their Bravas, they are very unique with slow-cooked tomato, a touch of chipotle, and with roasted pork on top. There are also a few specialties from Murcia to look out for. Read my review of La Porca here.

Machaka Burger
The restaurant is cool: the entrance is just like an apartment and the bathroom is inside the fridge..! Their burgers are straightforward smash burgers but with a lot of flavor. The desserts are worth checking out.
Several locations.
Bar Torpedo
This cool spot has surprised many a burger lover. The place is tiny (and cool), and the menu short, but the burger makes it all worth it. There is only one burger on the menu, but it’s all you need really. The meat used is excellent and the brioche bun just perfect. The owner is Rafa Peña from famed Gresca restaurant. They have a nice selection of craft beer and natural wines, and now a second location.
Carrer Aribau 143 (Eixample Esquerra) and Diputació 301 (Eixample Dreta).
Acero Street Flavours
This tiny, TINY place in the Born has an insane dish called Patatas Marranas that has a little bit of everything on top, and you can’t go wrong when choosing from the burger menu.

La Real
It’s impossible not to be charmed by La Real. They have immensely tasty options on their menu: if you’re a cheese lover, make sure to opt for the Raclette that comes with a huge, melted slice of raclette cheese. I loved the parmesan fries.
Carrer Valencia 285 (Eixample Dreta).
Anauco Burgers
They are present in Madrid and Barcelona, and their free-range meat patties are just as delicious as you would expect. They’re also great for delivery.
Carrer Valencia 428 (Eixample Dreta).
El Filete Ruso
At El Filete Ruso they use organic meats and good quality ingredients for their burgers. The location on Enrique Granados is perfect, but make sure to book in advance. The burgers here are straightforward and simply excellent.
Carrer d'Enric Granados 95 (Eixample Esquerra).

Lomo Bajo
This restaurant specialized in excellent quality meat divides into two: Lomo Alto which is a high-end restaurant and Lomo Bajo downstairs that offers dishes made with quality meats and ingredients for a more accessible price. You’ll be sure the burger is top-notch. Also, the steak tartar roll is very much worth trying. Carrer d’Aragó 283-285 (Eixample Dreta).
Special mentions:
Folks Burgers - This spot is tiny but they serve straight-forward smash burgers that have won over the hearts of many burger lovers. Av. de Sarri, 69 (Sarrià-Sant Gervasi) and C/ de Luis Sagnier 31 (Horta-Guinardó).
Antonia’s Burger & Wine - A great combo, right? This cool spot has quickly become popular. The menu is short and sweet, serving smash burgers with cheese in brioche buns. And wine, of course. Many consider it the best burger in town. C. de Teodora Lamadrid, 1, (Sarrià-Sant Gervasi).
Two Patties - Every day they make 222 burgers, until they are sold out. Pretty cool concept! Make sure to order the loaded fries. Carrer de Guillem Tell, 51, (Sarrià-Sant Gervasi).
Vicio - Their marketing campaign can’t be compared to anything else Barcelona has seen in years, but we have to admit: their burgers are pretty decent (and they have three good vegan options). They have several locations in Barcelona, and they deliver.
Fry House - Famed chef Ken Umehara opened a Japanese-leaning burger spot that instantly became a hit, with creative fast food dishes and sides. Carrer de la Unió, 13 (Raval).
Hideout Burger - They specialise in smash burgers, with two locations: one in Eixample (Consell de Cent 242) and one in Poblenou (Diagonal 121).
