We started Friends & Brgrs for people just like you. People who like great burgers. People like us. That’s why we bake our own buns, triple-cook our fries and grind the meat ourselves. We use the best ingredients we can find, and buy them from people we know and trust. No shortcuts and no compromises. There are easier ways to make burgers and fries, but not better.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A popular place that is quite centrally located, so be aware that peak times can be a little nuts. The ingredients have always been fresh. The buns are soft and warm. The fries are (usually) crispy. The staff at the till and service window have, as far as I have experienced these past few years, have all been pleasant. They also have a fairly diverse menu, so most people (including vegans) can eat here. The only thing is that the quality has plummeted these past two months. I don't know if there has been a change in management or what, but we've had everything from soggy or cold food to completely incorrect orders. WE haven't given up on this place, but will maybe avoid it for at least a month, just to see if things work themselves out.

The owners stated goal is a unique experience. I think that's accomplished. Regarding the standard burger meal...The tres cooked fries while not especially my fav are unique and a welcomed difference. Ingredient quality is excellent and immediately apparent. The bun, fresh and soft internally did however have a rather tuff skin that interfered with that first bite. Bottom line bullseye, for a few euros more than the corporates and significantly less than "burger" restaurants Friends and Burgers is a takes the win.

Trying to find a non fast food brgr restaurant I came across this restaurant in Helsinki city centre. They didn't have my choice of the crispy chicken, instead was offered two small fish finger type chicken as a meal. It was fast food. The price was twice as much as the UK fast food chains but the quality not that different.

The place was busy in the afternoon. Service was good but the burgers, tasteless, the on site made bun, tasted like paper mache. The fries look good, bit overdone and again, no taste at all. You eat better at McDonald's/Hesburger and for half the price.

Friends & Brgrs was recommended to me by a fellow allergy traveler and we could not have picked a better place during our first night in Helsinki after a long day of traveling! The kind person working the register was very knowledgeable about food allergies and my nut allergy was a non issue here! Burgers and fries were great (we ordered a second helping of fries after we finished the first!), and we look forward to dining here again when we are lucky enough to return to Helsinki! Thank you!

Burgers and fries are good, but still fast food quality. Unfortunately, heavy takeout orders obstruct service so bad that customer have to wait whole restaurant time for their food. And after half an hour wait, the other burger was the wrong one. Compensation effort took so long that we had to leave. Service was trying their best, but this concept (fast not fast) is just wrong, no-one could handle it. So don't go for a quick bite, even though this place tries to be one, it is not!

Although I'm not vegan I prefer vegan food when I am eating out and thankfully, Helsinki is really good in that respect. on the 25th of August, we wanted to have dinner here with one of my friends as part of Helsinki Herkkuappro and tasted their burgers. Let's be honest, there are way better vegan burgers that you can have in Helsinki. The main problem was about their bun. I guess unlike using vegan buns from companies like Beyond Meat, they decided to do their own. However, it was falling apart easily, and huge corn ickers were disappointing. The same falling apart problem applies to their burger bread as well. It was failing to keep all the stuff together and eating the burger was a bit of a pain. Though prices were okay and service time was acceptable as well. Still, you can find better vegan burgers in Helsinki so might be a good idea to look out for them.

I got the classic burger but veganized it—replaced the patty with the vegan patty and removed cheese and mayo. Burger was very good, but a bit too much ketchup and mustard for my taste. I love a bean based patty, and this one was delicious. Only complaint about the burger is that the bun was a little soft and fell apart in my hands pretty easily. Fries were also great. Great service and very close to the train station!

I had the Aioli burger and Ann had the vegan one. Her fries were regular and mine were "topped" (pico n cheese). Hit the spot! The one thing is those buns fall apart. Vegans who do not prefer the meat-resembling patties, who like beans and stuff, will definitely prefer it here! Ann was thoroughly enthused.

Everyone had been talking about this place so decided to check it out. We got the veggie burger and a regular burger and both were decent - decent size with sweet buns and good french fries. The food was alright but nothing that would stand out nor make me repeat the visit. It was a nice one-time visit

Friends & Brgrs is a chain but don’t let this fool you: it is nothing like normal fast food places. They use the best ingredients and turn them into fantastic burgers. Of course it’s way more expensve than McDonald’s or Burger King but it’s one of the places where you’re really HAPPY to pay - yes. Because what you get is so so good that you do not care at all about the price and you really only appreciate the result. Great job by the Friends & Brgrs team and their successful concept.

Ambience: you're probably familiar with plenty of quality burger restaurants. This one is also set up according to a well-known concept. But here it's not overloaded with frills. Cozy interior with an open kitchen. Food: great burgers. The Double Friend is recommended. Superbly prepared meat and the bun is fluffy and tasty. And delicious fries. Whether regular or with toppings. Tastes great. Staff: really friendly and helpful for a burger shop. Prices: the prices are really fair for the quality and quantity. The menu also includes drinks as free refills and in a glass! Conclusion: if you want a good and inexpensive burger in Helsinki, this is the place for you.

A not very healthy but good stop in Helsinki. We took the menu with “pasticciate” chips (one portion with cheese and truffles). Definitely their strong point: the chips are really delicious and not too heavy despite the appearance they can scare. Good burgers but not particularly noteworthy. In any case you feel that the ingredients are fresher and of higher quality than those usually found in fast-food restaurants.

I don't know if they are the best burgers in Finland as we read there, but they are very good. The meat is very tasty and the right size but with little taste. The fries were wonderful. Of course, forget about beer. The correct attention but at Burger King they are happier to see you..... hahaha.
