Burger Company är en av de nyare burgarkedjorna i Finland. I dagsläget har de flera restauranger i Helsingfors och har dessutom expanderat till Åbo. Själva restaurangerna har en stilren och riktigt snygg branding som för tankarna till de amerikanska snabbmatsjättarna med robusta färgval och en klassisk illustrerad maskot i 50-talsanda. Menyn är kort och koncis med enbart sex burgare, och vi beställde en Double Cheese Smash med två köttpuckar à 100 gram, dubbel cheddar, sallad, pickles och majonnäs för 16 euro (185 kronor) samt en Sriracha Double Smash med 100-gramköttpuckar, dubbel cheddar, saltgurka, sallad, tomat, rödlök och srirachamajonnäs för 12 euro (140 kronor). Vi uppgraderade även till en meny med pommes frites och läsk för ytterligare 4 euro (50 kronor).

Båda burgarna såg otroligt inbjudande ut på det där härliga opretentiösa och klassiska ”fast casual”-sättet, och de var byggda med en genomtänkt ratio mellan de olika ingredienserna. Och trots att brödet var på gränsen till att vara för stort så var det underbart fluffigt och fint rostat. Köttet hade en rejäl stekyta och hade kryddats rejält, vilket gav det en utsökt smak. Den generösa mängden ost gav burgarna en trevlig krämighet och de fräscha grönsakerna tillförde såväl fräschör som en krispig textur. Vi gillade även att de vågade göra sin srirachamajonnäs riktigt het, vilket lyfte Sriracha Double Smash-burgaren avesvärt. Pommes fritesen kunde nog ha tagit ett varv till i fritösen, men i det stora hela var de väldigt goda – något vi har vant oss vid på finska burgarhak.

Vi blev genuint imponerade av burgarna på Burger Company, och uppskattade även det mesta från designen och den tajta menyn. Det här är helt klart en av Helsingfors och Finlands absolut bästa hamburgerrestauranger.

Burger Company is one of the newer burger chains in Finland. They currently have several restaurants in Helsinki and have also expanded to Turku. The restaurants themselves have a clean and stylish branding reminiscent of the American fast food giants, with robust colour choices and a classic 1950s style illustrated mascot. Their menu was short and sweet with only six burgers, and we ordered a Double Cheese Smash with two 100-gram meat pucks, double cheddar, lettuce, pickles and mayonnaise for 16 EUR (16.5 USD) and a Sriracha Double Smash with 100-gram meat pucks, double cheddar, pickles, lettuce, tomato, red onion and Sriracha mayonnaise for 12 EUR (12.5 USD). We also upgraded to a menu with fries and soft drinks for an additional 4 EUR (4 USD).

Both burgers looked incredibly inviting in that wonderfully unpretentious and classic ”fast casual” way, and were built with a thoughtful ratio of ingredients. And although the bun was on the verge of being too big, it was wonderfully fluffy and nicely toasted. The meat had a deep crust and was heavily seasoned, giving it a delicious flavour. The generous amount of cheese gave the burgers a nice creaminess and the fresh vegetables added both freshness and a crunchy texture. We also liked that they dared to make their sriracha mayo really spicy, which elevated the Sriracha Double Smash burger considerably. The fries could have used a little more time in the deep fryer, but overall they were very good – something we’ve come to expect from Finnish burger joints.

We were genuinely impressed by the burgers at Burger Company, and also appreciated most of the design and the tight menu. This is definitely one of the best burger restaurants in Helsinki and Finland.

Hos oss är det sommar året om! Och du behöver faktiskt ingen grill för att göra en BBQ-burgare. Burgerdudes Summer BBQ Burger kombinerar Sweet Baby Ray’s Original Barbecue Sauce med sallad, tomat och picklad rödlök. Den picklade rödlöken ger både krisp och syra som balanserar den söta och rökiga barbecuesåsen, medan grönsakerna lyfter smakerna. Vi smashar köttet på en stekplatta på grillen, men det går lika bra att göra det i en gjutjärnspanna i köket.

🍔 Burgerdudes Summer BBQ Burger
4 portioner / 30 min

Du behöver:
800 g grovmald högrevsfärs, 20–30 % fetthalt
4 hamburgerbröd, gärna briochebröd
8 skivor hamburgerost
Sweet Baby Ray’s Original Barbecue Sauce
4 salladsblad
4 tomatskivor
1 rödlök
1 dl ättiksprit, 12 %
2 dl strösocker
3 dl vatten Smör
Salt och grovmald svartpeppar

Gör så här:
1.) Pickla rödlöken. Koka upp ättiksprit, socker och vatten och rör tills sockret har löst sig. Låt svalna. Skiva rödlöken tunt och lägg den i lagen i minst 30 minuter.
2.) Dela upp färsen i 8 delar à 100 gram och forma löst till bollar med händerna.
3.) Smält en liten klick smör på stekplattan eller i stekpannan och rosta insidan av bröden. Lägg åt sidan och torka av plattan eller pannan.
4.) Höj till maxvärme, cirka 250 grader. Lägg på köttbollarna och pressa med jämnt tryck till cirka 1 ½ cm tjocklek med ett smashverktyg i cirka 10 sekunder. Salta och peppra generöst.
5.) När små bubblor börjar bildas på köttets yta vänder du köttet med en vass stekspade. Lägg två skivor hamburgerost på varje köttpuck och stek ytterligare cirka 1 minut.
6.) Ringla Sweet Baby Ray’s Original Barbecue Sauce på brödets botten och lock. Lägg ett salladsblad på botten, följt av två köttpuckar. Toppa med en tomatskiva och picklad rödlök. Sätt sedan på locket.

Servera direkt och njut av smaken av sommar! ☀️

🇸🇪 @noahsburgare ★★★★★

We first visited N.O.A.H’s Burgare in Södertälje in 2024, and they’ve been high on our ranking of Sweden’s Best Burgers ever since. Their small white food truck has now been replaced by a much larger container, and the menu featured around ten burgers. We ordered our favourite, the Double Bacon Burger, with two 110-gram beef patties, cheddar, bacon, tomato, burger sauce and BBQ sauce for 138 SEK (14 USD). We also tried their SSK Meal, featuring a Bacon Jam Burger with a 135-gram beef patty, cheddar, bacon jam, pickles and Mac sauce. It cost 185 SEK (19 USD), including fries, a dip and a drink.

The burgers arrived quickly and looked just as inviting as we remembered. The Bacon Burger delivered crispy bacon and deep umami flavours, while the diced tomato worked surprisingly well with the other ingredients, adding both juiciness and a distinct texture. The Bacon Jam Burger had a pronounced sweetness and smokiness that we really enjoyed. The thicker beef patty had a crispy crust and a very juicy centre, and together with the generous amount of bacon jam, the proportions between the beef, toppings and bun were really good. However, the Mac sauce faded into the background and didn’t quite get a chance to shine. Both burgers were generously seasoned with salt and coarsely ground black pepper, and we particularly appreciated how they had adjusted the thickness of the patties to suit the toppings. The flavourful bacon jam worked perfectly with a thicker patty, while the classic Bacon Burger had better proportions with two thinner patties, each with an amazing crust. The fries were well-cooked and almost impossible to stop eating, and the included Mac dip paired really well with them.

N.O.A.H’s Burgare just keeps getting better with every visit, and they continue to impress from their small car park on the outskirts of Södertälje. If you love burgers, they’re definitely worth a detour.

🇺🇸 @familyfriend20671 ★★★★☆

Familyfriend is located in a residential neighbourhood in South Seattle and serves American comfort food and Guamanian fusion cuisine. They’ve been named the home of both Seattle’s best smashburger and corn soup, and the restaurant itself has a cosy interior with a large and airy courtyard. The menu consisted of small plates, medium plates and mains, and we ordered the only burger on the menu. The Da Kids Kewpie Burger came with beef, cheese, onions, pickles and miso and cost 20 USD, including a portion of Truffle Shoestring Fries. We also added an extra beef patty for another 5 USD.

The burger was served on a small plate and looked really cute. The beef was juicy with a crispy crust, but we would’ve appreciated more salt to make the flavours pop. The bun was nice and surprisingly airy, but should’ve been toasted harder on the inside. Ratio-wise, it worked really well with double beef, and we think a single would’ve been too bun-heavy. The diced onions were exceptionally crisp and flavourful without taking over, but they’d also diced the pickles, which made them feel more like relish. So even though the flavour was there, we missed their natural crunch, and the burger felt a little too soft overall. The flavours were simple but tasty, and we liked that they dared to keep the burger this simple. Their truffle fries were thinly cut and fried until crisp. Luckily, they’d only been lightly tossed in a fresh truffle oil, which added umami without taking over. We genuinely couldn’t stop eating them.

Familyfriend is a cosy little neighbourhood restaurant that’s well worth a visit. Come for the burger, but make sure to order several of the medium plates to share as well. We tried everything from tacos and empanadas to the burger and their corn soup – and the latter really did live up to its award.

🇸🇪 Burger House Homemade ★☆☆☆☆

Burger House Homemade is located right by the E18 outside Kristinehamn and is hard to miss from the road. The restaurant is decorated like a colourful American 1950s diner, with a large menu where the burgers come in several sizes. The prices were steep, with a burger containing 120 grams of beef costing 189 SEK (20 USD) and a 200-gram version a whopping 289 SEK (31 USD), meaning an extra 100 SEK (11 USD) for just 80 grams more beef. However, we struggled to find a burger where the ingredients felt thoughtfully put together. In the end, we ordered a Cheeseburger with 200 grams of beef, double cheddar, caramelised onions, tomato, lettuce, pickles and burger sauce. Fries were included, but with a soft drink the final bill came to well over 300 SEK (32 USD).

The burger was sloppily assembled and covered in sauce when it arrived. The two smashed patties, made from Swedish chuck, had a lightly grilled flavour, but they’d been pressed too hard and had a compact, chewy texture. The beef was also oversalted and tasted really dull. In contrast, the burger sauce, onions and, strangely enough, even the pickles were very sweet, and none of the flavours worked particularly well together. The lettuce had been placed underneath the beef, where the heat had turned it translucent and limp. The sesame bun had been coloured yellow with turmeric and grilled hard on the outside in a sandwich press, while the inside was left almost completely untoasted. This made it soggy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The result was a messy burger with poorly handled beef at an outrageously high price. The fries were at least okay and the portion was very filling, but that was the only positive part of the meal.

Burger House Homemade felt more like a trap for hungry motorists than a craft burger place with homemade burgers, and we found nothing that justified the unreasonably high prices. We recommend holding out a little longer and finding something tastier and better value further down the road if you’re craving a burger on your journey.
