Whether it is cheeseburgers, veggie burgers, or good old fashion “regular” burgers there are plenty of good spots in San Francisco. May is National Burger Month and I thought I would celebrate by sharing some of my posts I’ve written about one of my favorite food groups!
I wrote a post for Groupon’s San Francisco blog sharing a sampling of some of San Francisco’s Best Burgers, it was hard to narrow it down, but I’ve got some good ones in there!
I will eat a burger naked, but I do love them with cheese! If you feel the same, check out my post on San Francisco’s Best Cheeseburgers.
Two of my favorite burgers happen to be veggie burgers which I shared in my San Francisco for Vegetarians post.
I’ve also interviewed a tech geek obsessed with burgers. His passion was the genesis for Burgerator a geo-targeted app that helps you find the best burgers in your neighborhood. It takes all kinds, and we get to benefit!
If you aren’t in San Francisco, I still have you covered. I’ve created an AFAR Wanderlist dedicated to some of the best burgers in the country and the world!
If you are heading to Paris and find yourself craving a burger you are in luck, new burger shops are popping all the time. My pal Lindsey of Lost in Cheeseland is a fan and she has blogged about great burgers on numerous occasions. Check out posts on Blend, Le Camion Qui Fume food truck, her Best of Paris (Paris Burgers: Les Meilleurs) as well as the burger section on her resource page.
How about you? Have you had a great burger in San Francisco? Share! If not, what is YOUR favorite burger and where do you get it?

I agree with Lindsey on the burger photo! It looks amazing! I love experimenting w/ my burgers but the hubs does not. Give him a regular cheeseburger w/ just mayo, ketchup and mustard & he’s good to go..LOL
May 20, 2015
Wow the burger in the photo looks so good. It would be fun to travel across the country and try different burgers.
May 20, 2015
Ok, I want to eat a burger now! Jess, I also don’t like to experiment. Gimme my good ol’ veggie burger and I am happy camper!

That looks like a seriously amazing burger. If I’m ever in San Francisco, I’ll have to try some of those places for a good burger.
May 22, 2015
Yum, that looks good. I love blue cheese on a burger, it is the perfect combo.
May 22, 2015
we’re pretty obsessed with burgers and found some great ones in LA… not so much in Vegas. We’re hoping we can in SD, but it seems like it’s all about the Mexican food here! 🙂 I had an amazing burger in SF.. and now I cannot think of the name of the place for the life of me. 🙂 We were doing a west coast burger road trip.. and the two in Portland were awful.. but the one we stopped at in SF was amazing!
June 15, 2015
@Esther, I’ve had a couple of good burgers in SD, now it’s mine turn to try remember their names!
May 22, 2015
That looks like the BEST burger ever!! When I go back to San Francisco I am going to check out the places you mentioned! Thanks so much for sharing!!
May 22, 2015

June 15, 2015
@Esther, oh I haven’t been there, I need to try that!
May 23, 2015
Ok, you have photoshoped that burger! admit it! The burger can’t look that good, no way 😛 I want it now!!
May 23, 2015
I haven’t been to San Francisco but I’d love a good burger anytime. The bruger in the photo looks awesome!

My family loves burgers. It’s something we eat year round. Those San Fran burgers look ah-mazing!
May 23, 2015
Your pics have me starving now! I am thinking burgers for lunch is a distinct possibility.
May 23, 2015
No matter where I’m going, I usually want a burger sometime that week. They are my favorite food choice next to cheesy enchiladas. Would it be wrong of me to make a trip to San Francisco just to try one of these burgers?!?
June 15, 2015
@Tami, not wrong at all, I travel for food all the time!
May 26, 2015
Ok – now I’ll be craving a burger all day! Wish they would open a shop in St. Louis so I wouldn’t have to travel all the way to San Fran for one.
May 28, 2015
I am one of those rare ones that is not too fond of burgers. I don’t know why, but my Hubby and kid certainly make up for my lack of this fetish. They love burgers!!! Thanks for sharing your references to the best burger joints. I will have to let them know to check it out!
June 15, 2015
@Cara, I don’t eat them all the time and I love all kinds, have you tried a veggie or salmon burger? Maybe you would like that better?
September 14, 2015
That burger in the picture looks so good. I love trying burgers at the different places I travel. I would love to visit San Francisco someday and try a burger there.
November 13, 2015
Id love to see how SanFran compares to Wisconsin!! We have some amazing burger places that have put our cities on the map for foodies!!
