Firma Pickels Burgers & Wines

Snackspert: “One of the first gourmet hamburger joints in the country. The double cheeseburger is fantastic, delicious and simple.” Firma Pickles Burgers & Wines originated in Utrecht. At Pickles, you’ll find slightly more luxurious burgers, where you can spend an entire evening turning burger-eating into a truly special outing. A little less feasting, a little more enjoyment. Expect culinary creations such as the Bi’zondere Burger made with bison meat, chipotle mayonnaise, Chimay grand cru, crispy pancetta, oak-leaf lettuce and caramelised onion. But you can also go for a ‘simpler’ Pickles beef burger with cheese, tomato, lettuce and pickle (as well as vegetarian options).

Meneer Smakers

If you want to eat burgers in Utrecht, you can hardly avoid Meneer Smakers. With no fewer than four (!) locations in Utrecht, it is by far the most widely represented burger spot. But is the quality just as good…? Yes. Choose a burger from the burger family and you’re guaranteed to be spoiled.

Beers & Barrels

When non-Utrecht residents ask where they can eat best along the Oudegracht’s wharf, it’s always difficult to answer. There aren’t many exceptional restaurants along the Oudegracht (you’ll find the truly fun restaurants in Utrecht here). Except for Beers & Barrels. The rugged venue in one of the wharf cellars is an ideal place for a — well, you guessed it — beer. And the beer comes with the tastiest meat dishes, including incredibly good burgers.

Burger Bar

With a name like Burger Bar, you naturally expect nothing less than delicious burgers, and that is exactly what they offer at Burger Bar. The great thing about Burger Bar is that they stay open late on weekends, so if you want to put some quality food in your mouth after having drinks on a terrace, this is the place to be.
