När vi besökte Smashat i Strängnäs för några år sedan så hade de nyligen sadlat om från att ha varit ett mer traditionellt gatukök. Då blev vi väldigt imponerade av deras nya inriktning med smashburgare, och när vi nu återvände efter att de blivit varma i kläderna så var vi väldigt spända på att se om de lyckats bibehålla kvaliteten. Denna gång beställde vi deras klassiska cheeseburgare Royale with Cheese med cheddar, goudaost, silverlök, dillpickles, senap och ketchup samt deras nya kampanjburgare Gatsby med cheddar, bacon, kanderade jalapeños, rostad lök, honungssenap och srirachaketchup. Burgarna kostade 119 kronor styck inklusive pommes frites, och vi uppgraderade till dubbelt kött för 30 kronor extra.

Våra burgare såg riktigt snygga ut, med snygga proportioner och ett mjukt bröd. Att uppgradera till dubbelt kött gav burgarna en utmärkt ratio, och de två 100-gramsköttpuckarna hade en riktigt krispig stekyta och var välkryddade med salt och en rejäl mängd svartpeppar. Royale with Cheese hade dock en lite svagare crust, och vi hade önskat att hela burgaren bjudit på lite mer krispiga texturer. Deras pickles var väldigt goda, men ganska tunt skurna. Gatsby var en riktigt trevlig upplevelse, och bjöd på överdådiga smaker som verkligen satt som de skulle. Baconet var väldigt krispigt och smakrikt, och srirachaketchupens skarpa syra och fylliga sötma samspelade fint med honungssenapen. Denna smakbild lyftes ytterligare av deras kanderade jalapeños. Även pommes fritesen var av väldigt hög kvalitet. De var välfriterade och krispiga, och knöt ihop måltiden alldeles utmärkt.

Smashat serverar fortfarande den godaste burgaren vi har ätit i Strängnäs. Dessa prisvärda burgare gör dem till ett självklart val nästa gång du befinner dig i Södermanland.

In English

When we visited Smashat in Strängnäs a few years ago, they had recently switched from being a more traditional street food restaurant. We were very impressed by their new focus on smash burgers, and when we returned after they had settled into their new venture, we were very excited to see if they had managed to maintain the quality. This time, we ordered their classic cheeseburger Royale with Cheese with cheddar, gouda, white onions, dill pickles, ketchup and mustard, as well as their new campaign burger Gatsby with cheddar, bacon, candied jalapeños, roasted onions, honey mustard and sriracha ketchup. The burgers cost 119 Swedish kronor each, including french fries, and we upgraded to double patties for an extra 30 kronor.

Our burgers looked really good, with nice proportions and soft buns. Upgrading to double patties gave the burgers an excellent ratio, and the two 100-gram beef patties had a really crispy crust and were well seasoned with salt and a generous amount of black pepper. However, the Royale with Cheese had a slightly weaker crust, and we would have liked the whole burger to have a little more crispy texture. Their pickles were very good, but quite thinly sliced. Gatsby was a very enjoyable experience, offering delicious flavours that really came together well. The bacon was very crispy and flavourful, and the sharp acidity and rich sweetness of the sriracha ketchup went well with the honey mustard. This flavour profile was further elevated by their candied jalapeños. The french fries were also of very high quality. They were well-cooked and very crispy, and tied the meal together excellently.

Smashat still serve Strängnäs’ best burger, and their affordable burgers make them an obvious choice the next time you find yourself in Södermanland.

Strängnäs bästa burgare.

Smashat i Strängnäs hette tidigare Galaxy Grill och Kök, men bytte både namn och meny under sommaren 2022. Menyn består av närmare tio smashburgare, samt varianter med kyckling, halloumi och veganska patties. Vi beställde en Dubbel Royale With Cheese, vilket var det närmaste en cheeseburgare vi kunde hitta. Den innehöll två köttpuckar à 100 gram, cheddar, goudaost, silverlök, dillpickles och smashdressing, och kostade 130 kronor. Vi köpte även till pommes frites för 19 kronor. Under lunchtid kostar en meny inklusive läsk 140 kronor, vilket kändes som ett mycket mer prisvärt alternativ.

Burgaren serverades via en charmig takeawaylucka, och vi märkte direkt att den byggts ihop med omsorg. De två köttpuckarna hade en rejäl stekyta, och köttet var saftigt och rejält kryddat med både salt och peppar. Briochebrödet var fluffigt och varmt, och snyggt rostat på insidan. Vi uppskattade crunchet från silverlöken, som skurits i precis lagom tjocka skivor. Och deras egenpicklade dillgurka bjöd på en rejäl syrlighet och dillsmak, vilket vi verkligen uppskattade. De var dock lite för tunna, och hade mått bra av att få ta lite mer plats. Burgardressingen var rätt god, men vi hade ändå föredragit en lite mer klasissk smakprofil med ketchup och gul senap. Osten var lite för tråkig och anonym, och vare sig den plastiga cheddarosten eller goudan lyfte smakerna. Den rejäla portionen pommes frites var gyllengult friterade, och bjöd på en välsaltad krispighet som gjorde dem helt klart värda att köpa till.

Smashat serverar tveklöst den godaste burgaren vi har ätit i Strängnäs, och vi kommer gärna tillbaka – förmodligen under lunchtimmarna när prissättningen är lite mer tilltalande.

Smashat in Strängnäs was previously called Galaxy Grill och Kök, but changed both their name and menu during the summer of 2022. Their menu consists of almost ten smash burgers, as well as varieties with chicken, halloumi and vegan patties. We ordered a Double Royale With Cheese, which was the closest thing to a cheeseburger we could find. It contained two 100 gram beef patties, cheddar, gouda, white onions, dill pickles and smash sauce, and cost 130 SEK (12 USD). We also bought additional fries for 19 SEK (2 USD). During lunchtime, a meal including a soft drink costs 140 SEK (13 USD), which felt like a much more affordable option.

Our burger arrived via a charming takeaway window, and we could immediately tell that it had been assembled with care. The two beef patties had a great crust, and the meat was juicy and well seasoned with both salt and pepper. The brioche bun was fluffy and warm, and nicely toasted on the inside. We appreciated the crunch from the white onions, which had been sliced with just the right thickness. And their house-pickled dill gherkins offered a great acidity and dill flavour, which we really appreciated. However, they were a little too thin, and could have been given some more room. The burger sauce was quite good, but we would have preferred a more classic flavour profile with ketchup and yellow mustard. The cheese was a bit on the boring side, and neither the plasticky cheddar cheese nor the gouda enhanced the flavours. The generous portion of french fries were fried to a golden yellow colour, and offered a well-salted crispness that made them definitely worth buying.

Smashat definitely serve the best burger we’ve had in Strängnäs, and we’ll happily return – probably during the lunch hours when the pricing is a little more appealing.

🇸🇪 Mother of Wagon ★★★★☆

Mother of Wagon opened by Arboga’s train station in the summer of 2026, and is actually run by the mother of the owner of The Wagon Burgers & Brews in Stockholm. Besides the clever name, they also offered four burgers, all of which could be made vegetarian. We ordered a Cheeseburger with two 100-gram mustard-smashed beef patties, cheddar, onions, pickles, ketchup and dressing in a brioche bun. It cost 130 SEK (14 USD), and we also added fries for 30 SEK (3 USD).

The burger looked really good when it arrived, even if it had been assembled somewhat hastily with a lot of sauce. The flavours worked well, but all that sauce made it a little difficult to eat as the patties kept sliding around. The beef from a local farm in Örebro was generously seasoned and had plenty of flavour. However, it had been slightly overworked and was a bit too compact, and we would’ve preferred a more airy texture. The cheese had melted nicely over the patties, and we also appreciated that the fluffy bun had been nicely toasted on the inside, helping it hold together throughout the meal. We liked the finely chopped onions, while the pickles were crunchy, if slightly sweet. Although the mustard smash added plenty of flavour to the beef, we would’ve appreciated the acidity of American yellow mustard instead of the fairly sweet burger sauce. The fries came in a very generous portion and were thick and well-cooked, but slightly too heavily salted.

Mother of Wagon has managed to build a really solid foundation in just a few months, and the friendly staff also contributed to the experience. We’re really happy that it’s now possible to get a good burger in central Arboga.
