Tulip Shop Tavern öppnade i Portland 2019 som en mysig kvartersbar med drinkar och mat under samma tak. Inomhus var det dov belysning och bra musik, men vi slog oss ner på uteserveringen och beställde varsin slush-drink medan vi kikade på menyn. Utöver annan mat så fanns det två köttburgare, så vi beställde in en av varje. Tavern Burger med dubbla 113-gramsköttpuckar, ost, strimlad sallad, pickles och special sauce för 15 USD (145 kronor) och en Fair Burger med dubbla 113-gramsköttpuckar, vit amerikansk ost, karamelliserad lök, strimlad sallad, pickles och vitlöksaioli för 16 USD (155 kronor). Vi tog även en portion pommes frites för 5 USD (50 kronor), där en valfri dipp ingick.

Burgarna såg riktigt bra ut när de serverades. Köttet var saftigt och smakrikt, och osten hade smält fint och bidrog med mycket krämighet. Picklesen var tydligt syrliga och krispiga och gav burgarna välbehövlig smak- och texturkontrast. Salladen var däremot så finstrimlad att den nästan helt saknade krispighet, och värmen från köttet hade dessutom gjort den mjuk. Tavern Burger påminde smakmässigt om en lyxigare Big Mac, vilket vi uppskattade mycket, medan den karamelliserade löken gav Fair Burger mer umami och sötma. Den var dessutom rejält såsig och smakrik. Vår enda riktiga invändning var att burgarna var lite mjuka. Pommes fritesen var i alla fall riktigt krispiga och goda, och Buck-dippen hade en trevlig kick som gjorde att vi åt upp allt.

Tulip Shop Tavern är en mysig liten bar som serverar riktigt bra burgare. All mat var vällagad, och både burgarna samt pommes fritesen kommer med våra rekommendationer. Och missa för bövelen inte slush-drinkarna!

In English

Tulip Shop Tavern opened in Portland in 2019 as a cosy neighbourhood bar serving drinks and food under the same roof. Inside, there was dim lighting and good music, but we grabbed a table on the patio and ordered a couple of slushie drinks while looking through the menu. Alongside a few other dishes, there were two beef burgers, so we ordered one of each. The Tavern Burger came with two 113-gram beef patties, cheese, shredded lettuce, pickles and special sauce for 15 USD, while the Fair Burger had two 113-gram beef patties, white American cheese, caramelised onions, shredded lettuce, pickles and garlic mayo for 16 USD. We also ordered fries for 5 USD, which included a dip of our choice.

The burgers looked really good when they arrived. The beef was juicy and flavourful, while the nicely melted cheese added plenty of creaminess. The pickles were distinctly acidic and crunchy, giving the burgers some much-needed flavour and textural contrast. However, the lettuce was shredded so finely that it had almost completely lost its crunch, and the heat from the beef had softened it even further. The Tavern Burger tasted like a more luxurious Big Mac, which we really enjoyed, while the caramelised onions gave the Fair Burger more umami and sweetness. It was also seriously saucy and packed with flavour. Our only real complaint was that both burgers were a little too soft. The fries were really crispy and tasty, and the Buck dip had a nice kick that helped us finish everything.

Tulip Shop Tavern is a cosy little bar that serves really good burgers. Everything was really tasty, and both the burgers and fries come recommended. And whatever you do, don’t miss the slushie drinks!

🇸🇪 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.
